Preliminary program pay
ments will be made to produc
ers as soon as practicable af
ter July-1. 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.
Participation in tne sei-asiox-
Agricultural Act of 1970." Mc-
Leod said.
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.
