FARM QUESTIONS
QUESTION: What an the prhs
pects for getting- new farm machin
ery this year?
ANSWER: Not too bright. The
actual production of new fanning1
implements during the last three
months of 1946, a peacetime period,
was approximately 10 per cent lees
than in the last quarter of 1944, a
war period, Extension Service spe
cialists report
, QUESTION: What are the rates
of payment to be made under the
1946 AAA program for seeding Whi
ter cover crops,
ANSWER: State AAA men re
port the following rates of pay for
cover crops seeded with inoculated
seed in well-prepared seedbeds. Crim
son clover, 16 cents pa- pound; hairy
vetch, 12 cents per pound; Austrian
winter peas, 6 cents per pound, and
annual ryegrass, 8 cents .per pound.
QUESTION: Is it really better to
prepare tobacco plantbeds in the
Fall?
ANSWER: Extension Service to

Fanners who prepared beds last Fall
and applied cyanamid and uramon to
kill weeds, though delayed now by
wet weather in planting seed, are far
ahead of farmers who must prepare
beds from scratch. / -
