ANSWER: No. Standing timber is a capital asset and income de rived from its sale is capital gain only. QUESTION: Can we apply for surplus food at the social security office? ANSWER: No The surplus food program is handled through your county welfare office and all in quiries should be made there. QUESTION: May 1 draw bene fits on my late husband’s social security account? After he died I received a Lump Sum Death Pay ment of $180 00 and was toid by some friends that 1 am, therefore, not eligible for monthly benefits. 1 was 62 years old in July. ANSWER: Yes you are eligi ble for widow’s benefits begin ning with July when you were 62. The Lump-Sum is payable at time of death and monthly bene fits to widows when they are 62. Under the receipt amendments, a widow may receive 82Vi per cent of her husband's social security each month. AROUND THE FARM Rapid changes taking place in the dairy industry in Columbia county, as well as the state, are resulting in fewer dairymen and somewhat fewer cows although the tendency to larger herds has helped to hold numbers up. “A profitable dairy, in these times of price-cut squeeze, cannot operate an short time planning alone,” points out Don Anderson and Harold Ewalt, Oregon State University dairy specialists. They state that, “it is the annual pro duction and year after year high production that really pays the bills and returns more net prof it. Knowing the average produc tion per cow based on total herd production does no real good. Ten per cent of the animals in a herd may be ‘free riders’ that could be removed and net profit in creased with certainly less feed and labor being involved. Why is the production of all cows in Ore gon 7060 pounds of milk while the average of cows on DHIA is 9603 pounds? At $4 00 per cwt. this amounts to a return of $100 more per cow. The simple answer seems to be that those dairymek with production records used them for a better feeding, culling and management program with the result being more net income. By DON COIN WALROD County Extension Agent Oregon’s 1961 sweet corn acre age for processing is 26 per cent above last year and 81 per cent above the 10-year average. With the increased acreage, perhaps we will rank still higher in corn pro duction this year. When it comes to com-on-the cob, quality and flavor is obtained when it is eaten minutes after harvest. Most folks can’t achieve such rapid use of the product un less they have their own gardens or live near producers. Next best is to use corn immediately after purchase. Quality deteriorates rapidly if the ears are held in the refrigerator for more than a day. The sweetness of com on the cob disappears rapidly as the sug ar is used up in the respiration process which continues for some time after harvest. Refrigeration helps to cut down respiration rates and maintains quality. At 70 degrees, sweet com will lose 50 per cent of its sweetness with in 24 hours. Emphasizing further the im portance of fall fertilization, re search has shown that with the exception of nitrogen, leaching lessees of plant nutrients ordin arily needed are nil or negligible. This includes phosphorus, potash, boron, sulfur and lime.

County Issues 48 Building Permits In August for Total of $713,582.40 An itemized statistical report released this week in the county shows that 48 building permits were issued in the county in the month of August. Prior to August, 74 permits had been issued for a total to the end of August of 122. Value of the permits issued in August was $713,582.40 and for those prior to August, $399,260. Total valuation of permits grant ed since the regulation went into effect is $1,112,842.40. Breakdown of the figures to show what permits were issued for shows that in August, 4 were for septic tanks valued at $1,250; 16 were for single family dwel lings valued at $106,800; four were for miscellaneous items val ued at $1,065; two were for new industrial construction valued at $594,950; 16 were for additions or alterations to single family homes, amounting to $7,685 and six were for construction of de tached garages in the amount of $1,832.40. To date, the permits issued and their value is as follows: Septic tanks, 15, $4,595; single family residences, 43, $407,400; miscellaneous, 8, $16,865; new commercial, 1, $23,000; new in dustrial, 2, $594,950; additions or alterations to single f a m i l y homes, 42. $61,925; detached ga rages, 11, $4,107. The report fails to reflect var ious repairs to roofs, steps and al terations, due to the fact many contractors and owners don’t re alize that the code covers such items. A short form of the building code is available at two dollars. Another pamphlet giving the re quirements of the code in less technical terms ar.d including di agrams and charts is also avail able for one dollar.
