Treat Wheat as 1T
Comes From Field

A GOOD, SOUND way to prevent M
sect damage to stored wheat is to treat
it with protectant as it comes from
the field, according to Entomologist
Donald Wilbur of Kansas State College.
Normally. he says, wheat comes from
the field free of insects and becomes in
tested only after it is placed in storage
Thus. the surest way to keep wheat from
becoming contaminated is to prevent
insect infestation from occurring.
In a long series of tests at Kansas
State they have found that combina-
ton of piperonyl butoxide and pyre-
thrun1, applied as dust or a spray, rs
a good way to assure that grains remain
free of insect infestation, and viii help
to provide clean flour and cereals on
the tables of American housewives.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1955-07-01

wheat viii not be eligible this year
without repair or replacement.
Harvest Sanitation
Before the month is over the harvest
will be underway in some sections of
the state. This year more than ever
before it is going to be necessary to
make sure harvesting equipment is
cleaned.
To begin with, want to emphasize
the reputation we have established in
marketing high quality hard red
spring and winter wheat. Unless due
care is taken, our reputation may even
tually be in jeopardy. We probably have
zoe. 900 or more acres of durun in the
state this year. Mixtures of durum in
hard red spring and winter will begin
with the harvesting operation This will
be followed by trucking and storage.
1t will pay you to make sure your
combine and all facilities are clean be-
tween the harvest of different classes
of wheat and grains Again this year
there will be the customary movement
of custom combine operators It's up to
you, as producers, to make sure that
custom operators use due care in clean
ing their equipment on your place.
The Federal Grade Standards for
hard red spring or winter wheat per-
NIT only very small tolerance for
durum mixture. One per cent t196) is
the maximum tolerance, by weight, of
durum in hard red winter for Number
grade. Two per cent is the maximum
durum tolerance for Number / hard
red spring. Become familiar with these
tolerances. They're important to you.
Elevator men are being alerted on the
durum mixture situation. It won't be
bad this year but may become a prob
lem for the next few years.
Field Inspection
In a few days field inspectors for the
Montana Seed Growers Association will
be on the job. Their job will be to in
spect fields Of certified grains, grasses,
legumes, fax. corn and beans, noting
existing irregularities, if any
Producers of certified seed must re-
move all off-type plants. Objectionable
crop plants and troublesome weeds
prior to the arrival of the inspector.
Failure to do so will result in rejection
of field for certified seed production.
An entire field may not be rejected for
certification if only portion of it is
contaminated with weeds or objection
able plants
Wild oats are a common problem in
small grains. Sweet clover has been the
cause for rejection of a lot of red clover
and alfalfa. Get 'em out.

Soils and CROPS
This Is Year Wheat Must BE
Clean, Free From Mixtures
By ARTHUR F. SHAW

-
AT THIS WRITING one would certain
" be safe in saying that crop prospects
have seldom been brighter than they
are for 1855. The situation can change
in a matter of few days but we are
remaining optimistic. That being the
case, provision must be made to harvest
and store the grain in satisfactory
manner.
Grain Sanitation
By now you are saying. why do you
keep harpin' on that subject2'', but.
nevertheless, it is of vital Importance.
It's important if you will want to take
advantage of the 1855 price-support
program of the Commodity Credit Corp.
It's important any time you want to
market wheat.
The Food and Drug Administration,
in the interest of national health and
welfare, has been authorized to enforce
a previously suspended wheat santa
ton program. In line with this, the CCC
has revised the regulations governing
the wheat price-support program. The
new regulations require that:
/. The 1855 wheat crop meet Food
and Drug Administration minimum
sanitation requirements to be eligible
for price-support loans.
2. The 1854 wheat crop in storage and
which has been under loan, or covered
by purchase agreement, meet the
minimum sanitation standards to be
eligible for ''resealing.'
8. The 1856 wheat crop under loan
and reseaIed 1854 wheat must meet the
minimum sanitation standards upon
delivery to CCC at the end of loan
period. If it does not, the producer
stands to lose. The settlement value
win be the price at which the wheat
is sold by the CCC for feed or industrial
purposes other than food or beverages.
Producers, Of course, may redeem
their loans if they wish.
4. The 1856 wheat covered by pur-
chase agreements will not be eligible
for delivery to CCC if it fails to meet
the minimum sanitation standards.
The FDA says that wheat does not
meet the minimum standards if:
/. It contains more than two rodent
pellets per pint, or considerable
amounts of other similar material.
2. It contains 2 per cent or more, by
weight, of kernels visibly damaged by
insects.
Actually. the bulk of Montana wheat
marketed is well above the minimum
standards. 1t can and will remain that
way with little more care prior to
and during storage.
See your local ASC committee for
further details or requirements for stor-
age of grain for price-support loan.

lpower. It does this with 9
standard called parity. which
one farmer once described this
way:
IF you can sell q truckload
of wheat and buy with the
money as much food, clothing,
building materials, farm ma
chinery, fertilizer and the like
as you could In the five years.
1910-14. your wheat is selling
at the parity price,"
The 19l0-14 base period has
been brought up to date, but he
had the general idea.
Defenders of parity say 1t
does no more for the farmer
than a wage contract does for
his city cousins. Detractors de-
cry it as an outmoded link with
the past. a bar to incentive and
efficiency and breeder of Gov
Iernment controls.
Brannan's Plan
Charles Brannan though he
had a better solution than par
ity-pegged price supports. AS
Secretary Of Agriculture in the
Truman administration in l949
he put his plan to Congress this
way:
Let prices go down if they
will. Then let the Government
|pay farmers a guaranteed an
|nual cash income for producing
our food. Thus consumers would
|get cheaper food, and farmers
with get their income anyhow
and everybody would be happy"
Congress was far from happy
with the Brannan subsidy plan,
Especially his inability to say
precisely how much it would
cost. It was killed. but 1t left
q livery ghoSt.
Secretary of Agriculture Ben
son announced August 13 q, kind
of subsidy plan for cotton start
ing after next January /. Last
April he put subsidy payments
In effect for wool and mohair,
trying to build UP the industry.
Still the subsidy VS.. supports
battle roars on. Every now and
then q man like Senator East
land. Democrat of Mississippi,
himself a farmer. steps into the
middle OF the fray with an idea
to deal with q particular product.
Senator Eastland came up this
year with what he called q bold
new plan" for cotton. In essence
|it was to lower cotton supports
from 30 to 30 per cent Of parity,
increase allotted acreage from
18 million to % million acres
and sell surplus cotton on the
world market at going prices.
Senator Eastland also is press
ling for legislation which would
raise the standard Of !. cotton
eligible for supports. II accepted.
that would discourage produc-
|tion Of low-grade cotton which
makes up the bulk Of the United
States surplus.
Bipartisan HOwls
Any such talk Of pushing
United States surplus cotton on
the world market brings howls
from inside the country as well
las abroad. Textile firms fear
imports Of goods made from
such iow-cost United States cot
ton. Some United States in
|vestment firms have millions tied
|up in foreign cotton with which
|it would compete.

United States surpluses on a

meanwhile, cast eyes on the 1856
election box and nod agreement
with Thomas Jefferson's 1897 OBJ
servation that farmers "are the
true representatives Of the great
American interest and are alone
to be relied on for expressing
the proper American senti-
ments."
But some others on the farm
scene consider the great Amer
ican sentiment for free enter
prise. They weigh this against
subsidies and supports. acreage

ers, calling for controls, may sell
