Less Wheat,
More Meat
Asked In '50
WASHINOTON. 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. '

"Runout" Of
Some Crops
Said Myth
DES MOINES, Iowa i The be
lief that some crop verities "run
out Is a myth, says I. J. 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.
