Speaking to the an nual meeting of the Pennsyl vania Farmers’ Association here, he said. “Today the average factory worker needs spend only 41 working hours to secure the food supply for his family for one month, while as recently as 1952 it required 51 hours.’’ Shuman drew a contrast be tween the benefits derived 'by consumers from agricultural progress, and the situation in Classified Advertising Kates Use Phis Handy Chart To Figure Words (1) Issue (3)lssues 20 (Mm.) $l.OO $2.40 21- 1.05 2.52 22 1.10 2.64 23 1.15 2.76 24 1.20 2.88 25 1.25 3.00 KEYED ADS (Ads with ans wer coming to a Box Number, % Lancaster Farming): 25c addi tional Send copy to the Class fied .Advertising Dept., LANCASTER FARM- ’ \ ING, Quarryville, Pa.

Farmers have learned some lessons from “25, years of sad ex perience with government farm program,” he said. "Farm prices are not made in Washington. They are made Where the consumer accepts or rejects our products. If they were made in Washington, Congress would not have per mitted the 25 per cent decline in the price of farm products which has taken place in the last five years, through both Democratic and Republican ad ministrations. “You can’t control farm pro duction by law. Quotas, allot-, ments and other devices have generally failed to reduce agri cultural output. “We can price our products out of the market. Science can and will, if we insist on pricing our products out of the market, produce the food that goes into the great majority of human stoirfachs. “ Price has a function, and that function is one of change By Changing, prices serve as a guide PUBLIC SALE 0 F VALUABLE REAL ESTATE TUESDAY, NOV. 27, 1956 At 3-30 n m on the premises, 99 H acre limestone soil farm in excellent state of cultivation in West Hempfield Township, Lan caster County on public road leading from Salunga to Chest nut Hill Mennonite Church, two miles South of Salunga with eight room BRICK HOUSE, slate roof, vapor oil fired heat, with bath, modern conveniences and four room BRICE SUMMER HOUSE with large shaded lawn and two car garage.

That population will soon catch up to farm production and wipe out the surplus problem. That we can give our surpluses away. “There,, is no truth in any of these beliefs,” Shuman said. “Surpluses are a millstone around the neck of American agriculture. The only good place for us to accumulate reserves for the future is m the soil and in livestock. “History indicates that we can increase our productivity in agri culture more rapidly than popu lation is now increasing or prob ably will increase.
