Chinch Bug Control By Spray May Not Be Very Practical Entomologists at the College of Agriculture say there is some question as to whether or not it is practicable because of the cost to spray barley for chinch bug control. Two of the new insecticides are recommended for chinch bug control when used as striD bar- !EsL"Ldlls applying of dieldrin at the rate of one-half pound of actual diei- dnn per acre in a strip 20 to 40 feet wide. These materials are generally used in strips to pro tect corn.

J ' 7 ' f 6 i Beer Retailers Hosts to Civic Leaders Here Cass county beer retailers were hosts Tuesday night to civic leaders and guests throughout the county in an annual educa tional program held at Platts mouth under direction of the Nebraska Division of the United States Brewers Foundation. An estimated 100 countians, including city officials from a half dozen communities in the county, were present.

There will be more fuzzy thinking when the full story of the 1955 wheat al lotment is out. Fuzzy thinkers claim 75 per cent supports encourage dairy farmers to increase herds to pro duce more milk to make up for the cut in milk prices. Fuzzy thinkers claim that if wheat were on a flexible support pro gram instead of the rigid 90 percent operation which has brought on the current troubles, wheat farmers would plant more wheat to produce more bushels to make up for the price loss. Such thinking completely ig nores the fact that no farmer is going to raise or produce a product which costs him more than he can receive for it. Farmers differ in ability to produce wheat, for example, at a cost to him of $1.00 a bushel. A neighbor may have to spend $1.25 a bushel to produce wheat. Still other neighobrs may spend $$1.50, $1.75, even more to pro duce each bushel. The difference in production costs is in effi ciency of operation. An objective of flexible price supports is to encourage less ef ficient producers to move from a commodity, be it milk or wheat, which costs them too much to be profitable to com- Notice We Will Be Open Sunday 8 a. m. to 12:00 and 4:00 to 7:00 p. m.

To get to the heart of the matter, at the beginning of World War II it became appar ent the world was going to need food, and lots of it. To encour age production, Congress junked temporarily flexible price "sup ports for high rigid price guar antees , for wheat, cotton and other commodities. We got pro duction and abundantly. Seasonal Price Drop on Hogs Is Expected in Fall Push pigs for the early market advises A. W. Epp, agriculture economist at the College of Ag riculture. Hog numbers are up 10 per cent over last year. He expects hog prices to follow the usual seasonal trend next fall and not go up in November and Decem ber as in 1953. Epp suggests that farmers could farrow the usual number of sows in the fall of 1954 as the corn-hog ration is likely to be favorable through most of this year. Two Countians Have Livestock on Market Shipments to the Omaha mar ket from Cass county trailed off during the past week after a generally large list the previous week.
