the musical comedy about the
Pennsylvania Dutch, “Plain and I

hosj on the summer television ser
ies, ‘“‘Fanfare,’’ which is seen in

Farms Urged
To Consider
More Storage
Indications are that Orange Coun
ty farmers will reap a bountiful
harvest of corn and other feed
grains this year.
W. M. Snipes, Chairman of the
Orange County ASC Committee says
that he believes this to be a true
statement and says his personal ex
periences have brought out the fact
very strongly that storage space
at harvest time will permit more
orderly marketing of the feed grains
and the additional profits that al
ways accrue from orderly market
ing. Farmers should take time right
now, if they have not already done
so, to inventory their existing stor
age facilities If a farmer does not
have adequate storage space for his
grain at harvest time, he will have
no alternative but to sell all of the
grain that he can’t immediately
feed, on a depressed market.
In order to assist farmers in meet
ing their storage needs, the ASC
county committee can process CCC
loans to partially cover the pur
chase of needed storage facilities or
for the purchase of drying equip
ment for getting grain in condition
for storage.
Grain farmers who do not take
an early inventory of their storage
facilities are costing themselves
money every year, both in their in
ability to take advantage of ASC
price support loans and in their in
ability to hold the grain for the in
evitable price rise which follows the
“peak of harvest” market low.
