COUNTY AGENT
NOTES
1852 FARM OUTLOOK

General Economy of Nation. The
stepped up defense program here
and abroad will mean full employ
ment higher wages more purchas-
ing power, shortage of some civilian
consumer goods, increased demands,
higher prices, more controls and
more initiation.
Farm Outlook. Farmers generally
will be called on again in 1852 for
about production. The farmers
mNst produce enough food for $50
million good diets here at home and
enough more to provide safe mar
gin of reserve.
Higher defense expenditures with
rising consumer income will mean
continued strong demand for farm
products. Foreign demand, espec-
tally for cotton, is expected to remain
strong
Production prices will continue to
rise and may average about five per-
cent over 1851.
Prices of farm products may not
average much above the 1851 level
if production n d markcl1g are
heavy despite strong demand.
Income. With rising production
costs and little changes in prices re-
ceived net income is expected to re-
main about the S m as in 1851.
However, because of the higher cost
of living, the purchasing power of
nationwide goal has again been set
the farmers income is expected to be
lower than in 1851.
Lend Values are expected to con-
tinue to rise Farm land values in
creased about II percent in the past
year and are nearly three and a half
times the 1859 average.
Fertilizer. Nitrogen ard potash
supplies should be about 10 percent
higher in 1852; however, superphos-
phate will be Is to 20 percent lower.
The increase in nitrogen is mostly
in the solution form and the short
age of solid nitrogen is expected to
| continue. In spite of the increase in
production of both nitrogen and pot
ash, the demand has risen even fast
er, resulting in a continuation Of the
present shortage.
Fertilizer prices are expected to
rise about percent over 1851.
Insecticides supplies, with the ex-
ception of sulphur and arsenate of
lead are expected to be ample for
the demand. Some substitutes may
have to be used. Prices are expect
ed to continue about the same as
1851.
Machinery. Farm machinery pro-
duction in the last half of 1851 was
much less than in the first half.
Production in 1852 is expected to be
still lower. Demand will continue

the prospect for 1852. While hay
production in the nation as whole
wa IS high, MissisSippi's production
was low due to the drouth. Sup
pected to remain high.
A strong demand for all types of
feed is in prospect. Prices, espec-
tally for corn, sorghum grain al d
mixed feed, are expected to avcra )
higher.

year.
Beef Co ''e numbers are expected
to continue 10 increase. Total out
put of beef is expected to be about
10 percent over that in 1851. Aver
age prices are not expected to drop.
Hog Production is expected to drop
for the first time in five years. Re-
duced corn supplies and h i G h r
prices for corn are the major fac
tors in the expected drop in hog PRO-
auction. Prices are expected to
vary little, if any, from 1851
Milk Production will be about the
same as in 1851. Increased demand
will bring about rise in prices;
however a corresponding in produc-
ton costs will offset any gain in
cash receipts.
Egg Production is expected to in
crease. There will be an increase
IN number OF layers ana an increase
in the rate of lay. Strong demand
is expected to hold prices about the
same as in 1851.
Fresh Vegetable output is expect
ed to be larger in 1851 Prices
should average lower. Some increase
is expected in sweetpotato acreage.
Broiler Production will increase.
d e m d is expected to continue
strong at a little lower price than in
1851.

cerned, the Apostles Greed sums
up our attitude toward God and
our religion. We believe, as the
Greed says, not only in God, the
Father Almighty, but in Jesus
Christ, His only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy
Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary
49," We believe that Christ died
for our redemption -. that He
arose from the dead. that He
shall come to Judge the living and
the dead" We believe in the Holy
Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church,
the communion of Saints, the for
giveness of sins, the resurrection
of the body, and life everlasting.
We believe these things be-
cause God told us so. And because
we believe them, our faith y. and
our hope for everlasting life with
God are founded not merely
upon a vague and general belief,
but upon absolute certainty. AS
we see it, the word Il believe" in
the Apostles Creed might just as

would be good enough. He said,
well, good-by."
II know you'll hurry back"
Miss Trout said.
Oddly enough, he did. 1t de-
veloped one of the films Guilfoyle
had sent over was incomplete, so
only a couple of days later Jeffrey
was back.
Miss Trout said, "Therel have
to be a slip made out for the extra
reels, and Mr.. Guilfoyle will have
to sign it himself. Come on and
we'll run him down. l think he's
on Stage G right now"
Miss Trout led him across the
lot to a gigantic yellow building
that was a sound stage. Inside,
all was lights - and confusion.
Jeffrey had never seen picture
in the making before, and might
have found it interesting, if he
had not tripped over a sheaf of
electric wires and fallen on Sally
Ryan, who was sitting in a can
vas chair.
Jeffrey helped her up. He was
stricken with shame. He said,
I'm terribly sorry"
Its all right" Sally said. II
don't think anything's broken"
Miss TROUT introduced them.
She explained to Sally that Jeffrey
was a historian at the University
Library. She explained to Jeffrey
that Sally was script girl.
"Oh," Jeffrey said. You're a
script girl"
"Yes," Sally said. She gave him
her wonderful smile. Il hold the
script"
Jeffrey cleared his throat. He
said, That must be interesting
work."
Yes" Sally said. 1T is some
times"
Miss Trout said, Gee, this is
dreamy, and / hate to break it
up, but ="
"Good-by," Jeffrey said. I'm
sorry l was 50 clumsy"

Almost everybody believes there
is a God. But there is a big diff
ference of opinion as to what God
is like. y. what we should believe
about Him. and what we must
do to attain everlasting life with
Him.
The idea of some people seems
to be that knowledge of God is
vague and uncertain :. and that
each individual can therefore es-
tablish his own creed. This ignores
entirely the fact that there are GER
tain revealed truths about our
Creator which are not subject to
personal opinion, and from which
we cannot pick and choose as true
or untrue.
The Apostles Greed, for in
stance, is not merely a Pious
prayer. 1t is not just an idealistic
declaration, based on conjecture
and guesswork. 1t is a summary of
truths revealed to us by God Him.
self. 1t is not something which we
are free to believe only in part,
for to do so is to set our own
opinion and will against the spe-
cifiG command and will of God.
This, obviously, is not the in
tention of people who believe in
God and wish to please and serve
Him. 1t is due usually to the fact
that many sincere people. while
familiar with the words of the
Apostles Greed i. . do not under
stand its full meaning and tre-
mendous significance.

"Good-by," Sally said. She gave
him her hand.
Miss Trout took him away. She
said, 'Oh, what a hammy gambit.
And why didn't you at least ask
her to lunch, after going to all
that trouble?"
ASK her to lunch? But we'd
just met"
'"Mosr girls don't consider a
long engagement necessary before
a luncheon date"
I'm do it," Jeffrey said. He
said with resolution, "I'll 60 ask
her right now"
well hurry" Miss Trout said.
Jeffrey strobe back to Sally. She
was trying to put her chair to-
gether again.
He said rather hurriedly, while
he still had his nerve, "Will you
20 to lunch with me, Miss Ryan,"
She said, taken by surprise,
'Lunch?" She blushed a little for
him, he saw, because he had been
so awkward with the invitation.
She smiled and said, Thanks,
but this is the one day couldn't.
I have to spend my lunch hour
with the new director I'm being
assigned to. The script is his
torical, and it will take a lot of
work. I'm sorry. Maybe some
other time"
Jeffrey rejoined Miss Trout,
plunged in gloom. He said, "She
turned me down."
Miss Trout said, well, you
tried"
"She said she was tied up with
a director"
"She might really be. On the
other hand, it does sound suspi-
ciously like a standard brush"
He deserved it, Jeffrey thought.

and then rush up snarling unin-
telligently about lunch. and there
went his golden opportunity.
There would probably never be

poor impression he had created
with his first.

Trout said. Maybe they should
get you for a technical adviser"
DO you mean, l could work

"Only kidding, for heavens

"You are? So that's it. But
what's a hundred years?"
JEFFREY asked himself the same
question a time or two during the
next few days. Even though eight
eenth century England was not
his special field, he was fairly well
informed on it. And even though
technical advising was out of his
line, anything would be better
than sitting at his desk day after
day busy with nothing but de-
lection.
He thought it over for a week,
and then he surreptitiously tele-
phoned Miss Trout and asked her
to speak to Mr.. Guilfoyle about
letting him advise on the historical
picture.
Miss Trout said, you don't

Jeffrey was Immediately con-
vinced that Sally had said some
thing to Miss Trout about not
liking him, and Miss Trout was
being kind enough not to say in
so many words, Get smart, Buster,

already that you're thoroughly
uninteresting to her. Do you want
to try for obnoxious?

the hotel, which was attended on
non-segregated basis by both
Negro and White delegates and
visitors.
Following the banquet, Satur-

Then dropped some briney tears;
She made him think it was all

That he should have no fears,
But she went home and whisper

Into her mothers ear,
Then he received a frantic call
That's why that lads not here.
He packed his luggage and eased

Upon the crowded street
And timidly he looked about
While making his retreat,
But in a flash the police came,
Who'd heard her mas alarm:
"Who are you, lad? What is your

They asked and seized his arm.

A LETTER FROM
BILL LANTAFF
Dear Neighbor:

Foreign Policy is Quarterback
ing" not "cheer-leading", Burt
Marshall brought out in an inter-
eSting discussion of this subject
recently.
Marshall, former consultant to
the House of Representatives
Foreign Affairs Committee and
presently member of the State
Departments Foreign Policy
Planning Board, selected these
football terms to explain that
foreign policy is not sitting back
and yelling but calling the plays
that will assure your team sue
cess. There cannot be an absolute
fixed foreign policy - it must
be elastic. 1t must be so designed
to change as the needs require
just as certain play or defense
is called to meet changing stu
alton in football. 1t must also be
geared TO force your opponent to
change. ~
In answer to the question,
"Does the United States have a
Foreign Policy?", a pertinent in
quiry and prevalent during ma
tional election year, Marshall re-
piled that this country has always
had a foreign policy. The policy,
in effect since the establishment
of these United States, is aimed
at the preservation of our coun-
try. The only change occurs in
it's application to meet the exist
ing situation.
In explaining foreign policy,
the State Department official
stated that foreign policy is what
a nation does or what it would
like to do if it could. OF course,
foreign policy of a nation is linn
tied to what the nation is cap
able of doing. Such restriction
has definite bearing and di-
rect influence on the adoption Of
the proposed moves to be incor-
porated in the policy.
Marshall revealed that there
are various aspects to be consid-
cred in the irnplementation of our
foreign policy. While we move
openly and freely in the presen-
tation of our way of life to the
remainder Of the world, we pro-
ceed with caution and remain
alert TO any infringement on the
preservation of this nation. Our
every move ie measured or CAL
culated in the basis of the cost to
our country. We strive to see how
we might best fit into the pat
tern of conduct in the world and
direct our every effort to the task
of shaping this conduct. Most
important, we are dedicated to
establishing and preserving
peace.
What of our containment policy
with respect to communism? Burt
MARSHALL commented it is like
stopping certain offense Of
your opponent in football. He is
left with but the alternative to
change. If we continue to thwart
his every move and change, he is
faced with the realization that his
is a futile effort. He might call
upon the alternative Of replacing
his quarterback, changing his
system, or both.
Sincerely yours,
Bill I,antaff
