FREMONT, OAK HARBOR PACKERS
ENCOURAGING BEET PRODUCTION

Available now in the Agricrl-
tural Extension Office OTTAWA
County, are the latest recommend
ations for the growing of sugar
beets in 1852. Recommendation
were prepared by county agents
in the area with the assistance Of
DR.. Garth Volk, chairman of the
Dept. of Agronomy Of Ohio State
University. ......
Corn planters are being doomed
for use in 1852. Past experience
has shown that rows 80 inches or
wider produce bigger tonnages.
Thus the corn planter equipped
with small regular corn plates can
use Number S beet seed. Depth
gauges or shoes are desirable on
corn planters.
Fertilizer recommendations have
been upped on the idea that the
fertility level of the soil is the
limiting factor in high yields 500
pounds of something like 10-10-10
is recommended for ploWi lg down.
An additional $50 to 400 pounds
could be added in the row.
Labor for field work is expected
to be ample due to new working
arrangements between the Great
Lakes Sugar Company, Fremont,
and the j. Weller Co., of Oak
Harbor. The two companies have
long realized that labor require
ments for sugar beets, tomatoes
and pickles dovetail nicely thro-
ughout the growing season. HoLs-
units equipment and other facili-
ties are being interchanged be.
tween the two companies for good
harmonious relations with the la
Dor as we'll as efficient use of this
seasonal help. Fieldmen for the
J. Weller Co., are encouraging the
production of sugar beets along
with tomatoes and pickles real;z
ing their value in the overall food
production picture as we'll as the
relationships involved in the eX
change of facilities housing ano

crops on his farm All of these
crops are expected to yield high
income in 1852.

THE ROLE OF RESEARCH

Fortunately, agricultural research has brought
forth fertilizers. insecticides, improved farming ma
chineTy and techniques. such crop rotation This
has enabled farm output to continue to rise even
after the increase in available crop land has leveled
off Continuing research should do much to help
reduce the anticipated deficit in crop land and, in
addition, it should make available crop land
even more valuable, especially in case of World
War Ill
Unfortunately, many farmers fail to realize that
fertilizers and insecticides will not provide sOlu-
tion to the problem They are merely supplements,
the vamin tablets are only supplements
to human diet. Despite improved fertilizers and
Insecticides and despite improved agricultural tech
niQues the fertility of crop land is declining, in
some sections much as % year, or perhaps 1870
in 90 years Farmers have not been able to
pleely neutTaliZe the damage caused by foods soil
erosion and soil deterioration resulting from the
abnormally high crop production during the past
decade. The effect of this mining" of crop land
is very serious factor.
FARMERS BEWARE!
Here are some practical suggestions
Q) Urge your children to stay in a farming
community instead of settling in some city which
will be bombed in World War III
(2) Temper demands upon the soil and
serve what crop land you already have, and at the
same time nurse the depleted soil back to normal
Our foreign aid program should point more to max
ing other nations self-supporting to food
(3) 1t is important to cut waste of food
The "Johnny-cean-your-p plate attitude must re-
turn to every household. This is job for the par
ents and 1t is just as important the Three RS"
(4) Don't sell good pasture timber land to
take profit in paper dollars. Such land should fur
ther increase in avalue;n while paper dollars and
many bonds and stocks will become less valuable.

BABSON Discusses Farm Possibilities

BABSON PARK, Mass. July 18-Although the
present Real-Estate Boom is ending l don't want my
readers to sell "sustenanCC' farms held as insur-
When gaze upon bOuntiful dinner tables,
it hardly seems possible that grandchildren may
have to face semi-sarvaton In spite of the fact that
the u s. is rated the bes-fed nation there are signs
of starvation; that is, certain diseases even now
are due to a deterioration in our diet
SHORTAGE OF CROP LAND
Since 1890 the population of the U. S. has in
creased threefOld-fTOm about so million to about
1856 million in 1851. Available crop land on the
other hand, has increased less tnan two and one
quarter times-frOm 1873 million acres in 1880 to
about 40S million in 1851 Furthermore the net
production of available crop land is both.aggng the
growth in population, and comparatively has been
leveng off since 1920
The increase in crop land from the late 1SOO's
to its peak in the early 19S0's came primarily from
the release of grazing land for horses and mules.
This source of increase in farm land, however, is
passing out of existence With the trend towards
greater use of livestock and dairy products, more
crop land will have to be used for raising CATTLE
sheep and poultry. This will further reduce avail
able crop land
OUTLOOK FOR THE FUTURE CROP LAND
Moreover since 1880 lOng-range Government
planning has provided sources of crop land
The draining of swampland, together with new irri-
cation projects to reclaim desert wastes has already
added SS million acres of crop land to our economy
Looking ahead another 25 years, As million more
acres may be added
Thus, in 1875 should have a total of 500 mill
lion of crop land At the present rate of pOpu-
latiOn growth, however, many more millions of
acres will be needed to feed our nation on present
day diet standards. This means that certain farm
and pasture land may be the safest investment in
which to have money even II acreage prices de-
cline.

IKE GETS A NEW COMMISSION /

General of the Army Dwight d.
Eisenhower, who resigned his
NATO command on Memorial Day,
emerged seven weeks later from his
first political convention the unani-
nous Republican choice for the
presidency. 1t was, as all America
knows by the grace Of radio and
televisiOn, the bitterest, most hard
fought, nOisiest convention since
Theodore Roosevelt split the party
in his battle with President William
Howard Taft in 1912.
But the issues of 1912 fade into
insignificance in comparison with
the terrifying problems, spawned by
twenty years of appeasement, to
pressure groups at home and to
both friend and foe abroad, that
confront the head Of our nation.
In uncOunted millions of words
in four days of impassiOned speech
es, Republicans assured us our
salvation lay in their policies, re-
gardless Of their equally impas-
stoned differences as to which Re
publican could make them work.
And we shall soon be told, from
the same hall in Chicago, that only
the Democrats can save us and
for the benefit of that curious breed
among us who would rather be with
the winner than be right . that
only the Democrats can win.
This latter claim will be no idle
boast Back of it lie the cumulative
force of 20 years of patronage, 20
years of sOcializing handouts, 20
years of expanding the Federal
payroll and the prospect of a
Republican party divided against
itself.
We do not think. however. the
Republicans will long be divided.
Action on the convention floor to
make the 614 Eisenhower vote
unanimous. followed a well-estab-
lished and wholesome Republican
pattern. But it was the immediate
aggressive action of General Eisen-
hover himself that will do most to
heal the schism. In walking across

WHY PAY RENT!

No doubt you've heard about big
companies leasing new cars by the
year for their statesmen? Maybe
you've wondered. as we have, who
makes any money that way. Now
we know. Here's the story:
John w. Rollins. an enterprising
young man, of RehobOth, Delaware.
was quick to grasp the significance
of the country's changing corporate
tax laws. He discerned that a com
pany in the maximum excess profits
tax bracket had to earn more than
$11, 100 to acquire a $4,000 car for
its sales and executive use. Rollins
found that the law encouraged such
companies to lease, rather than
own. these vehicles on fully tax
deductible basis. He's now prOvid-
ing them to many firms throughout
the country for as little as $3.50 a
year He's making money on the
deal, the corporation is making
money and the taxpayer-well. it's
really a dark cloud that doesn't
have a silver lining!
PITILESS LIGHT
For millions of Americans the
cruel lights of televisiOn have ma
terialized top-Ievel politics from a
fog of gossip and inuendo into
something real. something that
really exists, no matter how bumb-
ling and cOnniving, how windy and
pOmpOus. We know now. better
than ever before, that the ma
chinery of democratic with a
small ID, please) government can
be ridiculous and inspiring, in the
same breath. Even more important
we can see now, the defective. out
worn parts of the mechanism. And
we shall expect a complete over
hauling of our primary election
system throughout the nation. Now
that television has let the public in
on the act ESQ much more complete
ly than radio cOuld) our pOlitici-
ans can no longer ignore the facts
of life. The hOrse-and-buggy days
are over for good.
INSPITE OF THE FACT that
the $51, ,39O.709,770 Truman asked
for the Defense Dept. was finally
cut more than four billion, we are
informed the defense spenders viii
have mere than 100 billions, that
100000 millions, at their dispOsa
this next twelve-mOnth That's be
cause past appropriations have beer
piling up faster than the PentagOI
could spend the money.
Which reminds us that the Re
