Gathering Data For Wheat Plan All farmers of Oregon who have raised wheat on their farms within the last 10 years are being asked to report acreages and yields to their county committees in preparation for making individual farm wheat acreage allotments for 1938. Blanks have been or are being sent from the county offices for this purpose, according to members of the state committee. While the records in the county offices already contain considerable data of this nature for those who took part in the wheat program of 1933 to 1936, a much larger number of growers will be able to benefit from the present provision for a 12 cents a bushel payment on wheat al lotments, it is explained. In cases where a farmer is unable to obtain acreage and yield facts from his own records, the commit tees have a method of figuring yields from the productivity index of the farm, which will be used to arrive at a fairly accurate figure, although facts obtained directly from,, each farmer are being sought first. County meetings to explain the de tails of the wheat plan have been held throughout eastern Oregon, with N. E. Dodd, chairman of the state committee, attending most of them. He reports that the reaction of the growers to the program is gener ally favorable. Meanwhile, plans are going ahead nationally to put the plan into ef fect to provide crop insurance for wheat on the 1939 crop. In addition to the main office of the new federal crop insurance corporation in Wash ington, there will be two regional offices, one in Kansas City for the winter wheat belt, and the other in Minneapolis for the spring wheat area. The regional office in Kansas City will be open for business by July 1, it is believed, in plenty of time to be ready for the first fall wheat plantings. Premiums for insurance on the 1939 crop will be paid in advance, either in actual wheat or its cash equivalent. The amount of premiums to be paid will depend upon the crop loss experienced both on the farm and for the county in which the farm is located. The amount of in surance may be either one-half or three-fourths of the normal yield. FLAG QUESTIONS (For Annual American Legion Auxiliary Americanism Con test) ' 11.
