By Muriel Nissen

DEAR MISS NISSEN: This
may sound like a silly problem
but it is bothering me a lot.
Seven months ago a bride Of 81
moved into the neighborhood,
and we became friendly. Since
she didn't have much household
equipment, I offered to lend her
my things, and let her use my
washing machine, etc. Soon we
were having lunch together on the
days she used the washer, and
that has now become a taken
for-granted custom. Originally.
I though she would buy some OF
these household things as she
went along, but now I discover
that she is more interested In
getting money into the bank
than she is in purchasing equip
ment. She has never made an
attempt to pay for electricity or
water used in the washer, nor
made any effort to repay, in any
way. her use of my other things.
I'm getting a little tired Of 1t
now, and am beginning to think
she's taken advantage Of me.
OF course, I realize that I was
the one to offer my things in the
first place, and I also realize
that the girl is very young and
perhaps hasn't learned to give
as well as take. I'd hate to hurt
her feelings, as I really like her,
but I also hate to be imposed
upon. JULIA v.
ANSWER: Only you can de-
eide whether the satisfaction OF
not being imposed upon or the
girls friendship is worth more
to you. On your choice depends
your future actions. There's no
doubt but that the girl is taking
some advantage of you, but her
youth and inexperience may ac-
count for her apparent thought
lessness. Perhaps her present
finances won't permit the pur-
chase of major household equip
ment, or perhaps she's putting
money in the bank for that pur-
pose. Taking all these possibili-
ties into consideration, you must
make up your own mind whether
you are being cultivated merely
for the use of your possessions

After the Bath

After bathing you can do your
feet a good turn by smoothing
down the rough spots with pu-
mice. The softening effect OF
the bath makes this the best
time for the pedicure, too. An
other luxurious after-bath treat
is the all-over rub down with a

A WHEAT FARMER friend OF
ours dropped in to the office the
other day. He was a little bothered
about allotment figures on 1854
wheat acreage.
s'What's the deal?" he asked. fTm
not complaining know If l
have anything to complain about.
But I'm wondering. 1 plant 600 acres
of wheat year and have ever since
I bought up the Jones place IL or
II years ago. My allotment for next
year is just under 480 acres.
ga fellow / know over in the next
county farms about the same, but he
only got cut to about 500 acres. And
my neighbor, right across the fence,
who has been planting more than
I have the last year or SO, got an
allotment less than mine. What's
the dea1?"
We couldn't give him much help
then. But he got us wondering, too,
so we took it up with the PIMA, the
agency in charge of acreage allot-
ments all along the line. We found
out there are differences in the acre
age allotments of farmers across the
state. We found out, too, they are
explained once you know the pro-
cedures used by the PIMA in dividing
up the wheat acreage allotted to
Montana.
To begin with, Montana was al
lotted 4,603, 194 acres. For the state
as a whole, the allotment indicates
roughly a 81 per cent cut from the
PIMA estimate of 100000 acres be-
ing harvested this year. But divided
among the counties, the allotment
has meant Is per cent cut for farm
ers in one county, 26 per cent in an
other, more or less in. still others.
Why?
Production Trends
There are several reasons. One is
county wheat production trends,
County acreage allotments were
made on the basis of 1943-52 wheat
growing histories, but recent trends
were also figured in. If county
showed an sup" trend in wheat
planting for 1850, 1851 and 1852, the
county wheat acreage base was adj
justed upward by a fixed percent
age. If the trend were downward
the state PIMA office made fixed
downward adjustment
This helped bring each county''
allotment into line with acreage &C
tually being seeded to wheat. Blu
the adjustment factor was fixed ant
was not great enough to reflect true
conditions in especially large "up'
or s'down" trend counties.
Even with a downward adjust
