Urges Wheat
Growers to
Cooperate

The cooperation of Geauga
county wheat growers is urgent
ly needed to bring farm pro-
gram records up to date for pos
sible acreage allotments and
marketing quotas in the 1854
wheat crop, James o. Sidley,
Geauga PIMA chairman, today
announced.
Sidley's appeal follows a re-
cent announcement by Secretary
of Agriculture Benson that his
department will Immediately
start preliminary work neces-
sary in case production and mar
keting controls are required for
the next wheat crop.
Certain information from
farmers is absolutely necessary
to do sound administrative job
of setting equitable acreage al
lotmentS for individual farm
ers," Sidley said. Farm allot-
ments will be determined by the
Geauga PIMA Committee with
assistance of the committeeman.
PIMA committeeman will call
on the farmers for necessary
data to make equitable wheat
acreage aliotments on farms for
the 1945 crop. Data needed in
cludes wheat acreage for the
three years, 1951-53. If the farm
er operates a rented farm, he
should be able to supply such
additional information as the
name and address of the own
er."
Mr.. Sidley emphasized that
the final decision has not been
made as to whether acreage al
lotments or marketing quotas
will be used for the 1854 crop.
That decision will be made lat
er, when more is known about
the supply and prospective de-
mand situations. However, the
indicated wheat supply is such
that production controls will
probably be necessary, as direc-
ted by law.
Proclamation of a national
wheat acreage allotment is man.
datory unless dispensed with
by the Secretary of Agriculture
because of a national emergency
or a material increase in eX-
ports" said Mr.. Sidley. Proc
lamation of quotas is mandatory
when supplies reach a certain
point specified in the legislation,
except under emergency condi-
tionS.
"An early start on the neceS-
sary advance work is particular
ly urgent because the decision
and proclamation must be made
not later than July l for market
ing quotas and July Is for acre

boast it contains only imported

sauce is sufficient to season u

"The Shaker Cook Book" by
Caroline B. Piercy, published by
Crown Publishers $4,000, is a
book of specially compiled reci-
pes the author culled from her
mothers hand-written notes.
The foreword gives an interest
ing summary of the influence of
the Shaker communities on the
formative stages of American
cooking. You'll run across such
intriguing titles as "SiSter Abb
gals Blue Flower Omelet" that
can only be made when chives
are in full bloom. The blue BIOS
SONS give the unusual flavor.
The original recipes, tailored to
feed a hundred mouths, have
been reduced to the usual size
recipe Of today. The Believers
applied almost scientific meth
odS in their cooking even in
those early days. Exact weights
and measures were necessary
when a hundred meals were pre-
pared thrice daily. We liked the
Introductory paragraphs to each
chapter that told us more about
the life and eating habits of the
Shaker families. You've heard
the tale of how Connecticut
came to be called the Nutmeg
State when not a nutmeg grows
within it's borders, haven't you?
In the early days the Sisters
ground all their spices at home
by means of spice mills. In buy
ing nutmeg they always pricked
them with a needle to be sure
they were fresh i. a fresh nut

were undoubtedly doing was
making sure they were nutmegs

dlers once foisted off on the
