It Is expected the preliminary payment will repre sent a major portion of the to tal payment a 'producer will earn. In any event, no producer refund will be required If the preliminary payment for any of these crops proves to be higher than the full payment due the farmer. Participants In the 1971 feed grain set-aside program will be guaranteed a national average of $1.35 a bushel on produc tion from half their corn base, nnH Si .24 a bushel ($2.21 a hun dredweight) on half their sorg hum base. The feed grain set aside payment will be equal to the difference between the nat ional average price received by farmers during the first five months of the marketing year and the guarantee. No national wheat acreage al lotment for 1971 will be set such as there was in 1970. (There will be a domestic use allotment to taling 19.7 million acres). Par ticipating wheat growers will receive 100 percent of parity on the production of their full do mestic allotment. Loan rates have been an nounced for several 1971 crops. For program participants, price support loans will be available on wheat at a national average of $1.25 a bushel, corn at $1.08 a bushel for No. 2 and grain sorghum at $1.73 a hundredweight.

Final determinations on set aside acreages have not been made, but a tentative 20 per cent set-aside for feed grain ml n Knt.asldn of between 60 and 75 percent of the domestic wheat allotment has been an nounced. The set-asides for these two crops will not exceed 20"!. on feed era ins and 75 on wheat. Barley Is not included in the Feed Grain program. These tentative set-asides are planned by the U. S. Depart ment of Agriculture for the pur pose of the special January farmers' planting intentions re port. Decisions on the actual percentages will be made be fore March 1. "Set-aside is similar to diver sion," the ASCS Director said. "Under the set-aside programs for feed grain and wheat a par ticipating farmer will set aside a eertain Dorcentaee of his base or allotment and put this acre- . . - I i.uo tlo .fill age in a const-iviug uc . ... also maintain his farm's con serving base in conserving use. "On his remaining cropland he will be free to plant what ever he chooses, except that he cannot grow crops which are under marketing quota rice, tobacco, extra long staple cot ton, and sugarcane, unless he has farm allotment for these. "A farmer in the feed grain or wheat programs will receive set-aside payments whether or not he produces the program crops." He re-emphasized that partic- program (Is not required to ob tain price-support loans on the following, crops): soybeans, at $2.25 a bushel, No. 1 grade; (barley, at 81 cents a bushel); oats, at 54 cents a bushel; rye, at 89 cents a bushel. Loan lev els are the national average; county rates will vary some what from these averages. Additional details on the new farm programs will be announc ed when final determinations are made, the ASCS Director said. New Year Resolutions Make 'em-To Break? It's that time of year again, if you haven't already done it, to sit down with pencil and pa per and in all good intentions, write a few New Year Resolut ions. It's an old, old custom, one that has come down to us through the generations but one that seems to be losing some of Its fervor. Remember when you were a kid, the folks handed you a sheet of paper, a pencil stub and said, "Now write your resolutions. Think hard on how you should Improve yourself next year". After struggling long and hard you came up with a few that included quit fighting with your brother, quit teasing your sister and the cat, be more po lite at the table and don't talk back to your mother. Nothing original but it gave a young mind time to pause and con template the errors of his ways and after all. Random sampling of Heppner residents revealed that most of the kids had never heard of "New Years Resolutions." and most of the adults don't make them because they'd only break them. Don Bellamy: "I don't know whether I want to or not. I haven't thought about It.". Betty Rood: "I'm gonna try to lose some weight!" Jack VanWinkle: "I'll make some tonight so I can wake up in the morning and break 'em." John Hanna: long pause. "I probably will.
