Wbat Farm Bnreau Recommends for
Federal Farm Policy

Advocate 2-Price System

dispose of our commodities abroad.
Advocate 2-Price System
At the State Farm Bureau conven-
ton in Butte last fall, official voting
delegates from each organized coun-
ty Farm Bureau, adopted a resolu-
ton supporting a flexible price sup
port program on basic commodities
until a better program can be de-
vised.
Also the delegates recommend
that the American Farm Bureau Fed
Grafton work and strive for a two
price system. That is, wheat con-
sumed domestically would be set at
full parity price and each wheat pro-
Queer would receive parity price for
his percentage of share of the ma
tional production for domestic con-
sumption. Also, a substantial re-
serve would be set aside for emer-
gency. The balance may be stored
on farm to be held in reserve as an
insurance for low productive years
or crop failure or sold on world mar
ket.
The American Farm Bureau Fed
Grafton is federation of At state
Farm Bureaus and Puerto Rico, con-
sisting of approximately 100000
farm and ranch families.

Agricultural Act of 1949.
High Supports Unsound
American Farm Bureau Fedora
ton officials from time to time have
pointed out that high support prices
alone are economically unsound. It
is necessary to have rigid production
controls or find an outlet for the
surplus. 1t is economically unsound
to continue to store up needless sup
plies of commodities.
Farm Bureau has endeavored to
convince Congress of the necessity
of two-way trade as being to our
advantage both economically and po-
itically. We should continue to ex-
port our food and fiber to free ma
tons in Western Europe and other
parts of the world.
Already there is evidence that
countries of Western Europe, as well
as Asia, are seeking food and fiber
from the Iron Curtain countries. Be-
cause Western Europe is not earn
ing sufficient dollars to buy from
the United States it is beginning to
trade manufactured articles for
agricultural products and industrial
raw materials.
Bureau Recommendations
Among the recommendations SUBJ
mitted to the Senate Agriculture
Committee by the American Farm
Bureau were: Extension of the re-
ciproca1 Trade Agreements Act for
one year; modification of "Buy
American" policies to enable allied
nations to increase their dollar earn
ings; simplification of customs pro-
cedures to pave the way for increased
imports; authorize the Export-Import
Bank to accept as collateral non-dol-
lar currencies in escrow-in order to
finance exports until imports are re-

fication of the International Wheat
Agreement on the basis of reduced
subsidy costs and a reasonable"
price schedule.
For protection of mustard, wool
and other specialized crops from for
eign imports American Farm Bureau
has aggressively favored the effec-
tive administration of Section % of
the Agricultural Adjustment Act in
order to give legitimate and neces-
sary protection to farm products for
which domestic programs are opera
tive.
Farm Bureau has also supported
the escape clause" provision of the
Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act
to give adequate protection to the
proper interest of both agriculture
and industry. For an example, the
mustard growers of Toole County
through Farm Bureau have a request
before the Tariff Commission for ar
adjustment upward on import duty
on mustard.

be with reference TO price sup
ports for agricultural products?
This question is of great inter-
est and importance 10 all Mon
tana farmers and ranchers. Be-
cause farm organizations are
taking the lead in recommending
programs based upon the think
ing of farmer and rancher mem
bers. Montana Farmer-Stoclxman
has invited state officials of each
of the three major national gen.
eral farm organizations TO pre-
sent statement of the stand
taken by their organization re-
garding federal program.
This article by Clarkson
Spain. president. Montana State
Farm Bureau. is first of the
series. Articles by officials of the
Montana Grange and The Mon
tana Farmers Union will be pre-
scented in succeeding issues.
MANY FARMERS and ranchers
are interested in the policies of Farm
Bureau regarding farm programs and
price supports. Since wheat is a
major crop in Montana, we are much
concerned as to the future market
ing of it.
For several years we have been
very fortunate in being able to ship
the major portion of our surplus
crops, especially wheat, abroad to
the people of Europe and friendly
countries in Asia. Much of the wheat
was handled through E. c. A. and
M. S. A
Due to the fact that these funds
are being reduced and that many
other wheat countries are supplying
more of the wheat at lower price,
our exports are falling off. In order
to maintain part of the market for
wheat we have operated under an
International Wheat Agreement,
which has been subsidized to an
average cost of around so cents per
bushel.
Another reason for reduction in
exports is that England and France
had rather trade for commodities
than to accept gifts from the United
States.
Large Carry Over of Wheat
We are facing an estimated carry
over of wheat of around 570,000,00C
bushels the first day of July. This
is only about 20O,000,O00 bushel:
short of enough to supply our do
meStic needs for another year. With
a normal crop for 1858 and less de-
mand abroad for wheat, we are fac
ing a reduction of wheat acreage BY
the United States Department O.
Agriculture putting into effect acre
age allotments for 1854.
If the supply of wheat is 20 pc
cent greater than the domestic con
sumption anticipated, plus the ex
ports, plus Is per cent for reserve
purposes, the Secretary of Agricul
ture shall call for referendum t.
vote on marketing quotas. If two
thirds or more of the eligible voter
voting on the referendum favor mar
keting quotas, then wheat will b
supported at 80 per cent of parity
If not, then wheat will be supporte
at only so per cent of original SUP
port.

Latest find" in the local food
stores is a real New England
style baked bean. Tiny white
California pea beans are baked
in hot. dry ovens until they're a
tender golden brown, then
stepped in a bubbling sauce of
molasses and salt pork. Reason
for the genuine New England
flavor is that the people from
those States actually inspired it.
Several years ago, this food COM
pany sent their representatives
on a questioning tour. They
asked people in the highways
and the bywayS of New England
about the size and type of bean
they used. They inquired about
the sauce. They even delved
into the cut of pork most often
used. With this information
they set about making expert
mental patches until the final
product was decided upon. Even
if you hail from Boston Com
mons the chances are you'd be
hard put to turn out any better
beans than these.

Up Harvest on
Most Produce
By Violet Faulkner

on to the beach for the week
end? You may be wise to carry
all your food supplies with you
because even the small wayside
stores may be taking q holiday
from the heat. too. Don't
chance it.
Practically all fruits and vege-
tables continue to be plentiful
and reasonably priced. The
weather, market reporters tell
us. has been ideal for growing
and harvesting. Even the nights
have been cool enough to save
the produce from spoilage. We
hadn't noticed any cool nights
but we're glad to hear about
'em. Maybe our new window fan
isn't doing right by us. If you
can get your mind off the heat
and back on food, the recon-
mended buys include potatoes,
onions. tomatoes, eggplant and
squash. The little green zucchini,
incidentally, makes a fine main
dish combined with only a
smidgeu of pork sausage. Maybe
something new will tempt a
weary appetite. Here's how you
do it: Scrub about pounds of
zucehini and trim off the ends;
don't peel. Cook them in boil
ing Salted water until they're
just barely tender, about Is to
20 minutes. Drain we'll and chop
coarSely. Cook together a half
pound of sausage meat and "a
cup chopped onion until the
meat starts to turn brown, STIR

sausage into bits. Add the

per to taste, and " teaspoon of

the mixture into a creased g.
inch pie pan. Sprinkle with an
other 2 tablespoons of the cheese
and bake in a moderate oven
$3.50 degrees F.) about IS min
utes, or until it's firm and deli
cately Drowned. Cut in wedges
to serve. Makes about or S
servings.
Corn-on-the-cob from nearby
farms, celery, iceberg lettuce
from California are more good
values. The heat is ripening the
tomatoes so fast they're creating
a problem. If you're staying
close to home this week end,
here's a chance to get some
cheap for canning.
On the fruit side, peaches still
take the spotlight with your
choice between Hales and AL
bertas. Here again the weather
is responsible for the abundance
on the market. Other good buys
are watermelon, California
oranges, cantaloupeS, grapes,
plums and pears.
