Its easy Do it all this Fall with unique Unipel 20-10-10 Last Spring practically set a record for late planting ip many areas. And it could happen here next year, too.

Through that date, prices were at record levels, averaging 12 percent above a year earlier. Farmers placed only Va percent of marketings under government loan, compared with 4 percent in the comparable period of 1971. Low loan placements plus heavy sales from loan stocks have reduced uncommitted CCC stocks to the lowest level in a decade. The U.S. hurley tobacco supply nay total about 0.3 percent below a year earlier and 11 percent below the 1964-65 record. Currently, supply represents about 3Va year’s use. The crop is a fifth larger than last year’s weather-reduced crop. Acreage is up and yield prospects are improved from last year’s 6-year low. Carryover from 1971-72 is estimated down 7 percent. Disappearance probably gained 2 percent during the 1971- 72 crop year (October- September). Combinations of reduced carryover and generally lower 1972 production will shrink 1972- 73 supplies of dark air-cured, Maryland, cigar filler, and cigar wrapper. Fire-cured supplies remain about the same. Cigar binder supplies are slightly larger.
