Farmers who have regular

farm operating and develop
ment loans from the Farmers
Home Armmistration under
recently revised regulations
of the agency, the U S. De
partment of Agriculture has
announced.
Previously, except in rural
development coun ies, a far
mer had to spend most of his
time farming in order to
qualify for a loan.
Experience gained in rural
development counties has
shown that many farmers
regularly employed off the
fa.m ean profitably use the
agency’s credit facilities to
increase the farm portions of
their total incomes, the US
DA said. The regulation
which limited its assistance
to farmers who spend most
of ‘heir time farming preven
ted some from obtaining the
maximum income from their
farms, and from taking ad
vantage of opportunities for
industrial and other off-farm
employment.
Other eligibility require

Urged To Have
Sows Tested
Harrisburg— Penna Swine
breeders are being urged by
the Bureau of Animal Indus
try of the State Department
to have their breeding stock
tested for bruceJosis
Testing of swine for bru
cellosis is to be done on a
voluntary basis by local vet
erinarians. However when
all breeding stock is tested
and found free of brucellosis
infection a certificate will be
issued the herd owner by the
Bureau of An mal Industry
Testing of swine for bru
need credit, and be unable to
obtain needed financial as
sistance from other sources.
Credit will be extended only
to operators of farms that
are family size or smaller.
Loan funds may be used to
pay farm operating costs,
purchase equipment and live
stock, pay farm development
costs and refinance certain
debts.
The FHA office serving
Lancaster, Lebanon, and
Chester counties is located at
222 Post Office building, Lan

government in 1958 when no
more than five per cent of
the catt’e herds and fewer
than one per cent of the
dairy and beef animals in
the state were found to be in

state to be certified as brucel

Certification as brucelloais
free gives a swine or cattle
herd owner greater freedom
to ship breeding stock from
