BY getting and spreading your
fertilizer now, you won't be Slow
ed up by trying to do this job at
the peak of the spring season.
And trucks can get in the fields
better now than they can when
the ground is wet in the spring.
The early buyer should get the
best material. Early orders are
well-cured. They store well and
spread well. AS the heavy demand
hits toward spring, stocks go down
fast.
During the peak demand season,
dealers trucks often stand in
line for hours at the fertilizer
plants waiting to get their orders
filled. That waiting costs money.
Don't worry about losing the
fertility value of fertilizers if you
put it in now. AgronomistS at the
Ohio Agricultural Experiment
Station claim that their expert
mental work shows that applying
fertilizer in the fall will lose very
little if any of its plant
nutrients.

Hog Raisers Face
Big Cholera Loss

With midwest swine raisers
again facing possible million-dol-
lar losses this fall from hog chol-
era, the American Foundation for
Animal Health urged farmers to-
day to adopt proper vaccination
measures.
"The fact that there are now
seven types of hog cholera vacci-
nation which have been govern
ment approved has confused many
farmers" the Foundation said. 1T
would be a tragedy if this confuS-
ion interferred with having hogs
vaccinated for protection from the
nations number one hog killer"
The choice of the proper type of
vaccination is important for maxi
mum protection, officials said
Each method has certain advant-
ages and disadvantages depending
on the local situation.
Such factors as herd history, the
presence of hog cholera in the
past, general herd health and
other variable factors all enter in.
to the choice of the proper vaccine
The Foundation pointed out also
that vaccination at the wrong age
or wrong time must be guarded
against.
Every farm and every herd is
a different problem" the Founda
ton said. That is why a hero
owner would be wise to leave the
selection of the proper type of vac
cination and the proper time tt
vaccinate to his veterinarian"
The Foundation urged all farm
ers to have their pigs vaccinateC
this fall.
Vaccination is the only reliable
means for controlling this swine
threat" officials said. Failure tt
protect the herd will increase the
chances for heavy losses"

Rhodes Says Ohio
Can Save $50. 900

With the goal of saving approx

payers of the State of Ohio, State
Auditor James A. Rhodes has re-
quested the officials of the Depart
ment of Welfare and the Division
of Aid for the Aged to meet with
him Tuesday, September 29, 1853
to formulate certain changes in
the disbursement procedure of the
aid for the aged systems as well
as other payments for the account
of recipients of aid.
State Auditor James A. Rhodes
states that by substituting a me-

Mr.. Rhodes states that the sug-

Ohio Included In
Farm Tour Plan
BY Coneressmen

Washington, September "a -
Plans for a 1200-mile tour of Mid
west agricultural areas, as part of
a nationwide study to determine
what long-range agricultural poll
cy farmers want, were announced
by Representative Clifford r.
Hope, Chairman of the House
Committee on Agriculture.
In the course Of the swing
through the midwest the committee
will conduct seven formal hear
ings and will take part in many
informal meetings with farm
groups. At these hearings and
meetings the Committee expects to
hear from farmers themselves
their own ideas on the present
situation of agriculture and the
programs that are needed for the
future.
In the Committees. field hear
ings emphasis is placed on tesh-
mony from local groups and in
dividual farmers rather than
from national organizations which
are represented in Washington.
Hearings have been scheduled at
the following MidweStern loca-
tions: Minneapolis, Minnesota;
Watertown, South Dakota; Des
Moines, Iowa; Bloomington, Illi-
nois; Quincy, Illinois; Indianapol-
is, Indiana; Columbus, Ohio.
The Midwestern hearings will
be the third such trip taken by
the House Agriculture Commit
tee since the adjournment of the
session of the 83rd Congress. I'M
mediately following the adjourn
ment the Committee went to New
England for two hearings. In the
last two weeks of September 1t
is visiting the Southern States
starting in Virginia and going
through Tennessee, Alabama, Mis-
sissippi, Georgia and Florida. At
least one series of hearings-in the
Far West will be conducted
following the Midwestern trip.

Ohio Edison Exec.
Flags Government
Power Invasion -.

COLORADO SPRINGS, COL,
Steady Government encroachment
in the power business is a direct
threat not only to all private
enterprise, but even to individual
freedom, the National Exchange
Club was told today at its 35th
annual convention.
The warning came from Walter
H. Sammis, president of Edison
Electric Institute, and one of the
nations leading power executives.
Sammis is also president of Ohio
Edison Company of Akron.
He emphasized that the people
in the utility business see this
federal invasion of the power
field as being extremely import

ant to every other industry and to
each citizen as well.
For make no mistake-if gov
ernmer1t can go into the power
business, it can go into the shoe,
the grocery, the automobile or
any other business, including
farming" Sammis declared.
Twenty years ago the power
generating capacity of the federal
agencies was 7/10ths of one per
cent of the industry's total. Today
it is II per cent. Actually, federal
generating capacity has increased
more than 40 times in the 20
year period, the convention was
reminded.
Although by itself, this figure
is alarming, the real danger lies
in what could be built on this
foundation, if indifference, neglect
or lack of understanding of this
situation should persist" Sammis
contended.
Some 91a million kilowatts of
additional federal generating cap
acity are now in various stages of
construction and close to 9 million
more kilowatts have been author
lied by Congress, he pointed out.
1t is nothing short of alarming,
Sammis, declared, to observe the
extent to which the Government
has gone into business in competi-
ton with its citizens.
He cited the study begun last
June by the Government Opera
tions Subcommittee on Intergov-
ernmental Relations of the House
as showing that the electric utili-
ties are not alone in this problem.
Representatives from such var
led industries as. coffee roasting,
retail trade, wood boxes, ice
cream, rope, paint, printing and
binding, tug boat and barge
operations, testified they had to
buck the tax-free, overhead-free
business of the government, while
at the same time in effect they
were compelled to pay heavy
taxes to keep their competitors
going, the speaker said.
A tabulation showed more than
100 such governmental activities
} in all.
He then pointed to the report
. of the tax policy committee oi

AROUND
OHIO
BY George L. Zeis

have Just gone over the fig
ures for the wheat paintings
farmers will be able to make in
Ohio this fall. Paulding and Lake
Counties have had the biggest
percentage decrease in the acres
they will be able to plant. 1t
amounts to a 39%6 drop in these
two counties.
But percentage figures don't
give the true picture. Wood Coun-
ty, for example, had 81,680 acres
planted in 1853. This county next
year will have an allotted acreage
of 52,366 or a reduction of 29,314
acres. This reduction in Wood
County is seven times the total
amount of wheat grown in Har-
rison County this past season.
So far as the state figures are
concerned there will be 1,746,664
fewer acres planted to wheat for
the 1854 crop season than this
past year. 1t amounts to a 3O%o
average drop.
In a recent column it was point
ed out the different possible crops
that a farmer could plant to take
up the additional acres that was
knocked out by the reduced wheat
paintings. But let's not neglect
the Importance of the grasslands
or meadows on our Ohio farms.
We have just come through
another extremely dry season in
this state. Not only have our ce-
real crops suffered, but the grass
lands as well.
Spotty rains have helped some
what in the past few weeks to
green pastures up. But the farmer
should not depend upon nature
alone to help his situation. He
should be doing more lining and
fertilization right now to get
those pastures and meadow fields
back in shape. There are several
important reasons why this should
be done right away.
Applications of fertilizer now
may mean that it will be possible
to get fall grazing out of those
fields. Extra pasturing this fall i:

Another advantage of applying
fertilizer now is that it will Civ

means an earlier and bette

These three reasons should b

being dismembered as a result of
governmental activities.
"Of these, 43 electric companies
have been taken over in their
entirety by tine Tennessee Valley
Authority and various state and
municipal bodies, Samnis said.
Another 55 companies have lost
part of their property to these
same government agencies. A
total of 72 electric companies
have been taken over in whole
or in part by REA projects, pro-
NOTED and financed by the fed
eral government. Federal money
also has been allotted for another
