This
is when you
get that
good feeling
This is pay day.
This is when it all comes back,
The fertilizer. The seed. The interest. The
machinery. The thinking. The work.
With a profit, if all the inputs did their
jobs.
The seed is a key. Some hybrids have a
superior capacity to produce. To give
you more corn, from the same soil and
season
Prof it- minded corn growers have learned
Funk's G-Hybrids can be depended
upon to do just that. To produce top
yields. Year after year. Dependably. In
good seasons and —like many years—
when conditions are tough’at critical
times.
Year after year, corn growers with
Funk's-G at work in their fields have
that good feeling.
That good feeling you get when you
have dependable hybrids, from de
pendable people. Funk's G-Hybrids.

Shapp Proposes
Flood Aid to Farmers
A proposed administration bill
to aid flood-striken farmers was
announced last Sunday afternoon
by Governor Milton Shapp as he
opened the 57th Annual Penn
sylvania Farm Show in
Harrisburg.
The bill, Shapp said, would be
introduced at the opening session
of the General Assembly. If
passed it would provide some $l2
million additional assistance to
Pennsylvania farmers who
suffered heavy losses from
Hurricane Agnes. Damages to
homes, crops, livestock and
fields would be covered by the
bill.
Bruce Maulfair, of Jonestown,
Lebanon County, RDI, took first
with his display of light amber
honey; Donald Weidman,
Lebanon, exhibited the top extra
light extracted honey; and
Donald Steeley, Ottsville, Bucks
County, showed the best amber
extracted honey display.

Lancaster Farming, Saturday, January 13,1973
Direct grants of up to 15 per
cent of actual damages incurred
in excess of $7500 would be paid to
farmers There would, however,
be a limit of $5OOO payable tc any
one farm or farmer To be
eligible for a $5OOO payment, a
farmer would have to prove
losses of at least $33,333.
Farmers Home Administration
flood damage reports will be used
to determine the extent of actual
losses. Shapp noted, however,
that farmers who failed to apply
for forgiveness loans through the
FHA will be ineligible for state
grants
If the bill is passed, it will be
administered by the Penn
sylvania Department of
Agriculture, effective July 1, and
will be paid from the state’s
disaster relief appropriation
Shapp also commented on the
Nixon Admmistratio’s move to
cut off FHA disaster assistance
loans. He said:
“I was disappointed to learn
the Federal Government is
cutting off applications for
Federal Disaster Assistance
Loans to farmers by the Farmers
Home Administration as of
January 15, 1973. I asked the
President to extend the cut-off
dates twice before and he did I
hope he will do so again, but
Secretary Butz’s comments in
yesterday’s paper made it ap
pear unlikely. I shall keep trying,
and I urge your farm
organizations to do what they can
to obtain a longer extesmon for
filing flood damage applications
Many farmers, for whatever
reason, have not as yet filed their
requests for FHA assistance
“Therefore, I urge you to help
us spread the word throughout
the Commonwealth All farmers
affected by the flood who have
not yet applied for FHA loans
should get their applications in
immediately. We in Penn
sylvania have repeatedly asked
for more federal assistance for
our farmers We have been
successful in some cases and
unsuccessful in others ” And we
will keep trying
