Paterson FURNITURE — RADIOS — REFRIGERATION VERNONIA — OREGON — FOREST GROVE to Talk to Wheat Far mers, Report Indicates The local Agricultural Conserva- tion Committee is now ready to | consider applications for the crop ■ insurance program. This applies to wheat only. It is available to all farmers raising wheat, whether they be a cooperator in the Agricultural Conservation program or not. One of the outstanding features of the crop insurance program is the fact that it covers all the crop hazards such as drought, flood, hail wind, frost, winterkill, lightning, fire, tornado, storm, insect infes tation, animal pests, plant disease, excessive or deficient moisture, in cursions of animals but does not include the farmers own negligence or failure to use good farming prac tices and failure to reseed after a winter kill if it is the customary practice to reseed in the community. This applies to wheat seeded in the fall of 1938 and the spring of 1939 and harvested in 1939. Ap plication must be made prior to seeding. Farmers may insure for 75 or 50 per cent of their crop. The premiums are paid in either wheat which is stored in designated ware houses or in actual cash. At the time of crop failures, the insured are redeemed in wheat or the cash equivalent of the wheat. All who are interested should call I at the soil conservation office in | the Columbia county bank building where they can learn more about I this program.
