B. CANNON. County Agent Grain producers are concerned ’about prices offered for‘small grain on local markets. R. W t . Hamilton. | executive officer, State PMA, Col umbia, makes the following state ment concerning the handling of grain through the government pro gram and farmers are requested to contact H. A. Ropp, County Admin istrative Officer, at the AAA office, for further information if interested in this grain program. ‘‘The government farm loen on No. 3 oats and above is 81 cents per bushel. The minimum requirement on No. 3 oats is that they must weigh at least 27 pounds per bush el; contain at least 90 per cent oats; show not over 1 per cent heat dam age; contain not over 4 per cent for eign material such as weeds, straw, chaff, etc; and contain not over 14 one-half per cent moisture. They may be stored, either bags or bulk, in any farm building or bin suffic iently tight to permit fumigation and protection from weather damage and theft, and reasonable protection' from rodents. They must remain in storage at |east 30 days; then sam ples will be drawn by a representa tive of the county AAA office. Loan applications must be executed in the county office. There will be a serv ice charge made of one cent per bush el to cover insurance, etc. “Loans on oats are available thru January 31, 1950, and notes will ma ture April 30, 1950. i “A recent survey made of the wheat crop in the state indicated that farmers expect to sell the grain from 60,000 acres of wheat. ‘‘The Commodity Credit Corpora tion offers to buy wheat at prices ranging from $2.07 to $2.16 per bush el. To qualify for the minimum price the wheat must weigh at least 51 pounds per bushel; contain not more than 7 per cent damaged kernels; contain not more than 3 per cent of foreign material such as weed seed. | other grain seed, chaff, etc. If of better quality, the price will be greater, but will not exceed $2 16 per bushel. The wheat will be load- ! in bulk in minimum lots of 60,000 | pounds per car. Two or more farm ers may cooperate in loading a car j "Farmers who are interested in wheat purchase program of the Com modity Credit corporation should at first contact their county AAA of fice and obtain all details. The coun- . ty office will assist farmers in ob taining cars, etc., and will make a preliminary fospectioa of the wheat at time . of loading. It is well for farmers to know that the wheat re mains their property until inspected and accepted at point of destination by the Commodity Credit Corpora tion. "Faraa loans are also made on bar ley at a rate of $1.19 per bushel, pro vided the barley meets the govern ment specifications. , “All farmers who are interested in "It may be necessary for some farmers to reclean their grain before offering it for loat. or purchase in order for it to meet the minimum requirements. In some instances the grain has been satisfactorily reclean ed by running it back through a com bine." Rober-tv H. Garrison, in charge, Seed Certification, has notified the county agent’s office that the clos ing date is July 1; 1949, for filing ap plications for cotton and other fall harvested crops.

I REMEMBER... By THE OLD-TIMERS From Mrs. Ella Claud of Col donna. La.: “I remember when friends and neighbors used to have log rolling and quilting parties and they’d all get together for a big dance In the eve ning Everybody had a good time. Many a kerosene lamp I have filled for such occasions ’* From Mrs. Mary Stewart of Chicago: "I remember when men’s shirts were always made to order, three for $7. with extra, detachable sets of collars and cuffs. The salesman would call with his samples and mother would select something with a red dot, purple sprig or green stripe. Dad was carefully measured and the specifications drawn up like a blue print. In a few w r eeks the shirts were delivered. When they were too worn for further use as a shirt, mother made aprons or petticoats out of the tails for the children of the family.” Wednesday and Thursday, June 29-30 | HIE t TIP FROM OtSWOOOl 0«(in«l Or Connw Lm • 0««cM4 o» ASST BiaLI* From “D. B.” to Mrs. Mary Stewart: “I. too, remember when women saved their hair combings In" a china jar called a hair receiver’ to make switches, or extra braids, or watch chains for the men folks. I remem ber v.hcn our minister’s daughter had her_ knee-length hair cut on a dare; the barber, Mr. Conover, gave her $2 lor her hair and hung It in his window. After that, first one and then another girl lost her hair un der his shears and short hair soon became ’respectable.*” From Mrs. Anna George of Brad ford. Pa.: ‘I remember the good old kerosene lamp days when my four brothers and I used to sit around the table with my father and mother in the winter evenings and rib goose featliers for feather ticks.’’ (Contributions to this.column are Imued from old-time readers.
