    A32—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, April 17,1912
WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S.
Department of Agriculture has
revised allocations, by country and
commodity, under Title I/in of
Public Law 480, the Food for Peace
program. These allocations are in
effect for fiscal 1982.
Title I of P.L. 480 is a con
cessional sales program designed
to promote exports of agricultural
commodities from the United
States and to promote economic
development in recipient coun
tries. The program provides long
term loans for up to 40 years, with
a 10-year grace period at low in
terest rates. At least 75 percent of
the commodities provided under
Title I must go to poorer countries
with per capita incomes below 8730
annually.
Food for development programs
under Title 111 provide for the
forgiveness of the debt incurred
under Title I, based on ac
complishments in development
programs and projects, as
mutually agreed upon by the
United States and recipient
countries.
Under Secretary of Agriculture
Seeley G. Lodwick said the revised
plans provide for the distribution
of $693.5 million in planned com
modity shipments. Of this amount,

$675 million is presently allocated
and $18.5 million is being held in an
unallocated reserve.
Shipments of food under the Title
I/m program will probably total
about 3.4 million metric tons for
the fiscal year, Lodwick said. This
includes a small quantity
programmed during fiscal 1981,
which was shipped after Sept. 30,
1981.
Country' allocations which have
been changed include the Title
1/Q1 allocations for Bangladesh,
increased to $55 million, and
Liberia, increased to $l5 million.
Lodwick said the revised
allocations meet the legal
requirement that not less than 75
percent of food aid commodities be
allocated to friendly countries that
meet the International Develop
ment Association’s poverty
criterion. Eighty-one percent of
the Title I/IQ food commodities
are presently allocated to coun
tries meeting this criterion, he
said.
Lodwick said the program takes
into account variations m the
availability of commodities and
funds in both the United States and
recipient countries; changing
economic and foreign policy
situations; the potential for

Clean up pastures before turning out livestock
UNIVERSITY PARK - A
careful check of pastures before
turning cows into them"can be tune
well spent, says L. Dwight Sch
wartz, Penn State Extension
veterinarian.
Trash, broken glass, and wire,
he says may produce bad udder
and foot injuries. Move or bury
such debris. Nails sticking through
boards may product serious
puncture wounds in feet. Old farm
implements should be hauled
away; cows seem unable to resist
stepping through old disks or
harrows, often with disastrous
results.
Loose fence wires need to be
securely fastened, and old rotten
fence wire should be carefully
cleaned up. A magnet may be a big
help m picking up nails and bits of

A rubber jar ring, if tramped into
by a cow and drawn above the
hoof, can cut off the hoof within a
few days.
One old paint bucket may furnish
enough lead to kill half a dozen
cows. “They like the taste of lead
paint so much that they will
struggle with each other to get as
much as possible from an old paint
can,” warns Schwartz.
