UP WINTER WHEAT PLAN ENDS OCT. 31 Jackson county farmers may plan their winter wheat seed ings this fall with the knowledge that wheat marketing quotas are almost certain to be in effect for the 1942 crop, accord ing to Fred Homes, chairman of the Jackson county AAA committee. Despite marketing quotas this year, a bumper crop and further shrinking of exports have com bined to give the United States the largest wheat supply in history, Homes pointed out. 'Farmers are apt to forget that the present price of wheat re sults from the 83 per cent loan made possible because a large percentage of growers supported marketing quotas," the chair man said. "They need only to look at the overcrowded ware houses and embargoes on ship ments to all major terminal elevators for confirmation of the fact that the surplus is still with us." Quotas have already been proclaimed for 1942 by the secretary of agriculture, and unless they are rejected by growers voting at a referendum next spring, they are certain to be in effect, Homes said, adding that growers should plan their seedings accordingly. The chairman also reminded growers of provisions of the 1942 agricultural conservation program which make seeding within acreage allotments im portant. There will be no toler ance In 1942. Instead, provision has been made for a 10 percent reduction in parity payments for each 1 percent that the allot ment Is overseeded. However, the chairman warn ed, no overseeded farm will be eligible for wheat loans, and all farms seeded in excess of acre age allotments will have excess wheat under marketing quotas. All county wheat growers are being contacted now (or will be contacted soon) to sign winter wheat plans for their farms, Homes said. These plans, which signify the growers intention to participate in the 1942 agri cultural conservation program, must be signed before Octo ber 31.
