Of CCC Grain Bins
Tuesday, June 11 is the day
set for public auction of the ex
cess Commodity Credit Corpora
tion-owned grain bins shipped
here —and to other eastern and
southeastern States from the
Midwest for sale to farmers,
Fred G. Seldomndge, chairman.
Agricultural Stabilization and
Conservation Committee, has
announced
The place of the auction is at
Hubers Camp Site. 8 mi south
of Lancaster off Rte 324.
Lancaster County has receiv
ed 10 of the bins for local sale
All of the bins are steel, of 3250
bushel capacity, of the same
type as those shipped under a
similar program last year.
Sale of the bins will be by
competitive bids through public
bidding, at not less than the es
tablished minimum price Sales
will be for cash or through a
CCC storage facility loan if the
farmer is eligible for one. The
farm storage facility loans can

out-of-pocket cost of approved
structures needed to store price
support grains
The chairman said that ship
ment and sale of the bins is in
tended to help farmers achieve
more orderly marketing i of
crops, especially at harvesttime,
and thus gain more bargaining
powers in the marketplace. J
