Adult YOU!
1.
Will good moral bring you back to
Yes! But how many are willing
to come back
Mothers and Fathers are respon-
sible
Stop dealing with a hand so
slack.
Train the Chill dthe way it should
Jesus said to one and all
Mother and Fathers wake up to-
day
And answer our savior's call.
Jesus was calling Mothers and
Fathers
1t wasn't dadies and mamies at
Mothers and fathers you got to be
To be able to answer to Gods
call.
There are mothers and fathers in
the Bible
Not a dadie and mamie can be
found
Are You willing to come back to
the cross road
And Be ready for Starry
Crown.
It's the Ignorant people who are
leading
And putting the wise outside
They are claiming we are the
ignorant
Will there be a change after
while
6.
The most of my people are
Religious
1t is just duty to perform
You have got to be born of the
Spirit,
Of Christ, full of love and no
Harm

The people are learning more
about the letter
And less about the spirit of
Christ
Brains are filling up most of the
Churches
But God calls for heart and a
Life.

Making Clouds Give Rain

ern and southwestern regions of the United
States. Such clouds contain large amounts
of water and have the ability to draw moist
air from surrounding regions. While capa-
bic of producing beneficial rain they may
also develop into thunderstorms, some
times causing powerful lightning strokes,
destructive winds, or hail.
When seeding has been done with prop
er amounts of dry-ice or silver iodide, rain
fall has resulted in numerous instances.
And it has been found possible to prevent
hail storm or other destructive disturb
ance by using excessive amounts of the
seeding materials.
Another interesting field of investiga-
ton is that of causing heavier snow-pack
in mountain areas by series of seeding
operations in the winter season Geographic
clouds, or clouds which form moist air that
is forced to rise because of a mountain bar
rier, are very common in mountainous re-
gions. But they seldom precipitate of their
own accord.
Scientists believe that if techniques can
be devised for a systematic seeding of such
clouds snow depths in mountain vicinities
could be materially increased This would
be of Importance in stabilizing stream flow
and in assuring ample water for irrigation
and power.

WHILE artificial production of snow
w and rain is still in its infancy, scien-
lists have made substantial progress in the
development of practical techniques in re-
cent years They now know that precipita-
ton can be brought about by such methods
under certain conditions.
Some success has also been attained in
the prevention or curling of thunder
storms, hail storms, lightning, torrentia1
rains, tornadoes and hurricanes Clearing
of aircraft icing conditions and of some
kinds of ground fog are other possibilities.
But, in the opinion of Dr. " J. Schaefer,
a leader in experimental meteorology, no
method of relief is in sight for drouth or
similar weather conditions in which cloud
less skies, or clouds containing too little
water, prevail.
The principal means used in producing
precipitation and controlling cloud forma-
lions are cloud-seeding with such materials
as dry-ice silver iodide, and even ordinary
water. Results are largely local and there
seems no prospect of bringing about any
profound changes in the weather cycle.
Huge, towering cumulus clouds have
been found to be most responsive to seed
ing operations, And this type of cloud for
nation occurs most frequently in the west

at lower levels than at present The mini
mum loan would be so percent of parity,
but not less than the loan rate per pound
of corn This latter provision is intended
to protect corn growers from unfair COM
petition from wheat as a feed.
The money used to purchase the GER
tificates from the growers would come
from fund created by millers or other
professors buying certificates from the
secretary of agriculture sufficient in num-
Der to cover the wheat used in the flour or
other finished product which was sold on
the domestic market Cost of the certifi-
Gates would of course be passed along to
the consumer No certificates would be re-
quired on wheat processed for export, but
they would be required on imports.
Among the advantages claimed for the
certificate plan is that it would be self
supporting financially and would not re-
quire congressional appropriations. Since
part of the wheat crop would be available
for feed, export and industrial uses at a
supply and demand price level, consump-
ton would be encouraged.
Certificates could be used by the far
mer to help finance production operations
during the season. In case of crop failure
the certificates would serve as a partial
income insurance plan.
Millers and other users of wheat would
buy on the open market through regular
trade channels. Since millers would not
have to put up money for certificates until
processed wheat was sold, less money
would be tied up in wheat stocks Millers
would be able to compete in the export
market.
Under this plan the grower would de-
termine his own production program ac-
cording to his own situation and condi-

TONS Grain produced in excess of the
certificate allotment could be sold at the
open market price.
This certificate plan is beginning to at
tract support among growers, most of
whom are eager to find some plan that will
not require acreage control. How produc-
ers of corn and other feed crops will regard
it remains to be seen.

A Wheat Certificate Plan

ORIGINALLY proposed by the Oregon
" Wheat Growers League, the so-called
income certificate plan is attracting sup
port among some producer groups. Tt is be-
ing advocated as a means of maintaining
the income of wheat growers on a satisfac-
tory basis and at the same time encourage
ing more extensive use of the grain for pur-
poses other than human food
The income certificate plan is designed
to give the producer full parity income
for that portion of his crop that is used
domestically for human food. The secre-
tary of agriculture would determine prior
to the beginning of each crop year what
portion of the wheat crop would be used
for human food by domestic consumers.
Each producer would share in that portion
in the same ratio his average production
holds to the national production.
To make the general principle easy to
understand, suppose that the secretary an
ticipated a total crop of 000,000000 BUSH
els and estimated that so percent of it
would be used in the United States for
human food. The farmer would be entitled
to certificates on half of his average pro-
duction as determined by the county COM
mittee He would receive one certificate on
each bushel of wheat in his allotment.
The value of the certificate would be
the difference between the average market
price or the loan whichever were the
higher and the parity price for that year.
Sixty cents would be the maximum value
of certificate. The certificates would be
issued prior to the beginning of the crop
year. The farmer could cash them when
ever he desired. They would be cashable
at public or private agency acting for
the secretary of agriculture.
Wheat loans would still be in effect but

Brahman cattle are proving useful in
developing greater meat production in
southern states. The hump-backed breed
and crosses from it seem particularly well
adapted to the heat and high humidity that
prevail In the deep south. They are becom-
ing quite prevalent in the coastal districts.
Southern experiment stations are also
crossing a milking strain of Brahman cattle
with Jerseys, Holsteins and Brown Swiss
in an effort to develop dairy cattle that
will produce better under southern con-
ditions.
Seventy percent of the farm acreage in
the United States was owned by active farm
ers, according to USDA survey made in
1916 Retired farmers owned percent,
housewives 2 percent, business and profess
sional men IA percent and those in clerical
work and trades percent.
Crested wheat grass on dryland has pro-
duced 70 pounds of beef per acre, bronze
grass 81 and native pasture only 81 over
10-year period at the Moccasin branch of
the Montana Experiment Station.
Are you wasting time opening gates on
your place when cattle guards would enable
you to drive right through? How MANY
needless steps do you take in year that
could be saved by putting another door in
some farm building? Are you still shovel
ling or wheeling feed when gravity could
do the work? Why not devote half day this
week to figuring how to do things more
efficiently?
Planning Intentions of IT, S. farmers for
the 1850 season in percentage change in
acreage compared with 1949 include the
following: corn, down SO; oats, up 7.7q6;
spring wheat, down 1861; barley, up
23.830; flaxseed, down 22596; dry edible
beans, down 11.79o; dry field peas, down
25-4ao; potatoes, down 3.290; sugar beets, up
27.4s6.
Rapid increase of beef cattle numbers
continues in southern states Most of it is
being consumed locally through an increase
In per capita consumption. But if the pro-
duction trend continues, competition of
southern cattle with corn belt and northern
cattle may be more important factor be-

DON'T HOARD!

Some time ago an association of retail
ers, which has a membership of 1880 stores,
appointed a Committee on Emergency Gov
ernment Controls under the chairmanshlp
of a Harvard professor of retailing. A few
days after hOStilitieS began in Korea, thel
Committee met. 1t urged that its members,
and all other stores, Garry on through the
months ahead with their usual concern for
the interests of consumers and the added
determination to serve in all possible ways
the interests of the nation as it faces a pOss-
ible developing emergency" 1t emphasized
that retailers will give full support to the
government in policies resulting from the
crisis in the Far East. 1t announced that
retail experts would be delegated to con-
suit with government officials on problems
of policy that affect retailing. In peace or
war, retailing is primarily concerned with
the welfare of the cOnsumer-if only for the
reason that in the long run consumer well
fare will determine the retailers welfare
During and directly after the last war re-
failing did a splendid job in fighting the
black market, in pointing out the dangers
in consumer boarding, and in making Inn
tied supply of goods go around as equltaDy
as possible The experience thus galneC
places it in a better position than ever before
to serve in any kind of an emergency Dis
quieting reports of scare buying and hoard
ing have appeared again. 1t is to the grea
credit of retailing that the vast majority o
store operators are urging that consumer
buy normally, and are pointing out That tn
supply of goods of almost all kinds is full
adequate. The hoarder is menace at tim
like this. The intelligent and patriotic con
sumer will cooperate with retailing in pre-
venting shortages and maladjustments l

he needs

If real emergency develops in the near future
we have reason to believe that price, wage and

Yet it looks as if necessary action would be delayed
if possible until after the. coming Congressional
