July IS A 1M production program calling for less wheat but more meat animals and dairy products was laid before the nation's wheat farmers by the government today. A declining foreign market for wheat make It advisable, Secretary of Agriculture Brannan said, that tanners plant 14 000 000 fewer acres to wheat for 1950 harvest than the nearly 83,000.000 seeded lor this year's crop. The acre taken out ei wheat should be put to grass and pasture for grazing of beef and dairy cattle, sheep and lambs, he said, because consumers need more of the Utter products. Under the 1950 program.' each farmer will be given a share of a national wheat planting allotment of 68400.000 acres. His share will be based upon his past production his tory. While the allotment is about 11 per cent below this year's acre age the reduction for Individual farmers will vary somewhat from this national average. Areas which greatly expanded their acreages since the war will take a larger cut than others. Compliance with an allounent Is not required by law. However, only those fanners who do comply will be eligible for direct price support aid on their 1850 wheat. The price sup port program Is expected to assure complying farmers an average of about tl-U bushel.

Johnson, head of the farm crops department at Iowa State college. It has sprung, he said, from the speed with which some new crop varieties have replaced the old in recent years. The belief Is that cer t a I n varieties o f self-pollinated crops may break down after a few years of replanting tn a particular area. "It's biologically Impossible for oats or any other self-pollinated crop to run out In the sense thst this term Is ordinarily used." he says. In the cs.'e of Tama and Boone varieties of oats. Johnson said, these varieties were resistant to most of the disease that were bothering oats at the time they were developed. Then Helmlntho sporium blight blossomed Into a serious dlesease tor oats and Tama and Boone were susceptible to It. "That I why w switched to Clin ton oats which wa re-itant 1 0 Helmlnthoroorlum as well as other diseases. he explains. "However the Tarn and Boone varieties did not run out. Thev were still a s resistant to the other divawa as at the start." Hybrid corn, he savs. Is a clear case of a plsnt that llterallv runs out after the first year. However, hvbrtd com la not a true rron va rletv, Johnson says. It cannot breed true. Ql'INTS NOW SIX .t BUENOS AIRES.
