Set Aside Grain Payments
Begin For Area Farmers
Preliminary payments ($1.20
a bushel for wheat, 32 cents a
bushel for com, and 29 cents
a bushel for grain sorghum)
for participants in the voluntary
set-aside farm programs have
been made to approximately 100
farmers in Malheur County
since July 1.
Participants in wheat and feed
grain programs set aside a
portion of their productive crop
land to help reduce the excess
productive capacity of Ameri
can agriculture. Payments are
■made in return for this con
tribution to the economic sta
bility of agriculture.
» Payments are computed by
multiplying payment rate times
farm yield j>er-acre times a
percentage of the planted base
or allotment.
• About 500 more farmers in
Malheur county are expected
Jo have received preliminary
payments within the next 6 week
period according to Blaine Gir
vin, Chairman of the Malheur
tounty Agricultural Stabiliza
tion and Conservation (ASC)

Producer certification is the
key to prompt farm program
payments, Girvin said. Pro
ducer certification, he said,
means a program participant
comes in to the County ASCS
Office, designates his acreage
on an aerial photocopy of his
farm and- certifies compliance
with farm program provisions.
Following certification, the data
is computer-processed and the
farmer’s payment sent to the
County ASCS Office which no
tifies him of its arrival.
‘‘It’s been taking about 2
weeks from certification to pay
ment, so far,” Girvin said.
“This may stretch out a little
as farmer certification data
from throughout the country
pours in to the computer cen
ter, but probably not by more
than a few added days.”
The preliminary set-aside
payments, which were required
by the Agricultural Act of 1970
to be made as soon as practi
cable after July 1, actually began
immediately thereafter in Mal
heur County and many other

The ecology of the United
States is important.
A man
would be a fool to deny the
fact but we’re getting all emo
tional over the subject. We’re
permitting our feelings to rule
our minds. There are those
people who can see bad in every
thing that takes place. We have
discovered pollution in every
thing and I mean EVERYTHING.
Everything is being polluted,
air, water, laud, sound, mind
and many other things but my
contention is that we’re not as
polluted as some professionals
would have us believe. I think
that we will ALWAYS have some
pollution until mankind is an
extinct species.
We have some pollutions that
are a necessity, I’m thinking of
power. As things now stand
we can’t place a power plant
on a running stream, we can’t
use fossilized fuel, ie, coal,
gas or oil and we can’t use
nuclear power. No I ask you
what is left? It has been sug
gested that we have fuel cells,
solar, and geothermal engery,
none of which are practical to
date.
Our power consumption is in
creasing and it’s becoming al
most impossible for a power
company to increase it’s output.
We can meet this power crunch
in several ways. Reduce the
population? Nobody really sees
how we can actually reduce the
population, the pill isn’t doing
the job. The Chinese used to
control the demand for food by
killing babies. If population
grows the demand will grow,
unless. Unless we train our
selves to use less power. This
may not be too easy.
The greatest use of power
is the production of heat. I
was amused the other day when
an ecologist suggested that we
stop using the electric tooth
brush. There is enough elec
tricity used in heating the water
for his bath to run his tooth
brush for a year. So the big
deal would be to disconnect the
water heater. Everybodys got
a water heater (if they haven’t
they're polluting the air with
smoke) and this would help a
lot. Then we cguld gradually
cease using the electric iron,
toaster, heater,airconditioner,
radio, TV, stereo, and lights.
NUTS, you’re not going to <to
this and neither am I. Let’s
face it, it takes years to build
a power plant.
Let’s get on
with the job because even eco
logists get mad at a brownout
and furious at a blackout. No
body HAS to use electricity but
it’s sure inconvient when the
power’s off.
