Hay
If YOU have hay to sell, don't

but MANY dairymen are buying
Number 2 leafy Alfalfa instead,
at prices Sc to 81 ton cheaper.
Hay is also being trucked in
from Michigan at about the
same prices charged for local
hay delivered.
II you are in the market for
hay. take your time to find what
you want. The closer any alfalfa

the better, since it gives you a

Granulated heptachlor appli-
cations prior to March 10 last
spring or between September
and October Is have been ap-
proved by VPI and the Depart

tlcns at any other times would
be risky.
In the Valley. farmers were
being offered $50 to $35 a ton for

Farmville's combined auctions

interpretations Of the election
will Continue for many weeks
and many months. SO will dis
cusSionS of why Vice President
Nixon lost All of this will be
important, but t h e overriding
fact is t hat Senator Kennedy
won. The crucial problem is to
appraise this victory.
Certain conclusions may be
stated Dramatically. These are !.
/. There was a vast difference
between the views Of Kennedy
and his platform and those of
Nixon and his platform. This
difference was both philosophi-
cal and practical. Kennedy be-
'ieves an increase of the power
If the Federal Government is
desirable and would use hi 5
authority to accomplish every
hing he wants. including ma
.lonal growth rate Of five per
cent. Nixon believes that [ h Z
power Of the Federal Govern
ment should be restrained and
would accomplish his detectives
be depending upon the individu-
al enterprise system.
2. The election was so close
especially the popular vote, that
no one logically can claim that
the result is a mandate. This is
doubly 50 since the difference
between the views Of the candi-
dates never got through to the
general public. And this is re
markable because there never
has been a campaign in which
the candidates m d e more
speeches or did more TRAVELLING
3. The new Congress will be
slightly more conservative
than the one that is on the way
out. This arises from the Re
pubhcans' making a small gain
in the House. The Senate will
contain two more Republicans
but this is not enough to make
any particular difference. The
unfortunate withdrawal of Rep
resentative Barden of Mort h
Carolina and his replacement as
chairman of the House Educa-
ton and Labor Committee by
Adam Powell of New York will
cause trouble, but that would
have been true had Nixon won.
Overall there is no reason for
assuming that Kennedy can
dominate the Congress to the
extent of getting everything he
desires passed.
4. Some of Mr.. Kennedy's pre-
election advisers have not been
friendly to business. But. con-
trary to the general impression,
The Farmville herald. (Farmville, Va.) 1957-current, 1960-11-22

the Eisenhower Administration
has not been friendly either
Most OF the regulatory agencies
have been much more severe
during the past eight years than
they were under either Truman
or Roosevelt Whether Kennedy
himself will be actually hostile
to business remains to be seen.
but there has been no indication
that he will be.
5. Cove rnme nt eXpendi-
lures will increase. That was
inevitable in any event. Ken
nedy probably will try to force
spending upward more rapidly
than Nixon would have, but it
is a difference of degree.
6. The new administration will
be much less fearful OF initiation
than the Eisenhower following
has been Government deficits
will be used in preference to tax
rate reform when the economy
needs stimulating or there is a
desire to Fl e a e more jobs.
Nixon would have used tax rate
reform to the maximum extent
T. Many measures that are
not conducive to the smooth and
effective functioning Of our eco
nonic system will be introduc-
ed. This means that those who
are determined to protect t lie
PRINCIPLES of competitive indi-
vidual enterprise will have to
work even h r d e r than they
have over the past several
years.
Putting all these. and many
other factors. together it is our
view that the immediate bust
ness outlook has not been APP
preciably changed. BY i'm

three to six months. Beyond that
We see grave problems which
will determine whether we con-

SOybeans

SOybeans
Soybean prices probably will
hold at bout their present
levels for the next two or three
weeks.
Production is up, but carry
over was lower with total sup
plies expected to be about two
per cent under last year.
The cru S h this year is ex-
pected to be larger than last
year and export demand looks
at least as good. December soy
bean oil futures are almost two
cents above this time last year,
but the meal market is lower.
With demand good and sup
plies not burdensome, look for
more than the usual rise in
prices after harvest.
SOybeans in Richmond last
week were quoted at 81, the same
as Northern Neck points. Nor
folk was 500, Alberta 50 and
Chicago S2l2.
Corn
1t is about time for corn prices
to start their after-h harvest rise,
but harvest in Eastern Virginia
is about two weeks late this
year, so prices probably will
stay close to present levels for
another week or so.
With marketings spread out
over a longer period and a good
deal of corn left to dry in the
field, prices have stayed above
last year and above expected
levels, with big crop nationally
and in the Southeast
Valley prices took a dip last
week, as truckers headed that
way with loads of North Caro-
lima field-dried corn
With the big crop and prices in
Virginia alre ady above last
year, don't look for the usual Is
cent price rise from November
to May.
This year it will probably be
more like 1918 cents, and less
in the Valley.
