Donald Moul, head of Dog Law
Enforcement, was asked at a
meeting in September, “How bad
is it down there in Lancaster
County?” He replied, “Not as bad
as it -was made out to be. One or
two places need some upgrading
out of 30 or 32.” Those aren’t bad

Ireland, where they all eat, drink
and enjoy cream, butter, whiskey,
meats of all kinds, eggs galore, has
very low heart statistics; and the
Irish live a long time, given a
chance.
Anyone who wants to make
money fast has only to think up a
diet. Everyone thinks that diet will
cure aIL It helps, but isn’t the only
answer. It’s easier to cut out eggs
than do a daily exercise routine.
One reason why the un
derdeveloped countries are un
derdeveloped is due to the lack of
many nutrients in the diet which
feed the creative processes in the
brain. Aren’t nutritionists blaming
poor eating habits (in some
people) for lack of mental ability?

Application period for
storage facility loans ends
GALESBURG, 111. Secretary
of Agriculture John R. Block an
nounced that with the 1962 grain
harvest in its final stages and most
loan money targeted, applications
will no longer be considered for the
farm storage facility loan
program, effective Nov. 12.
“Our changes in the program
and the additional funding have
been successful in meeting our
goal of assuring adequate storage
for these record crops,” Block
said. “Farmers have taken ad
vantage of the program and have
applied for most of the funds made
available for loans. ’ ’
On Aug. 20, Block authorized
£/& UM .diomitlsy ~iS o?iA ?<V<<K
changes in the program which
included permitting loans for
construction of facilities to store up
to two years’ production of eligible
crops. And on Sept. 23, another $BO
million in loans were made
available to build storage for the
1982 record com, wheat and
soybean crops.
Block also announced
emergency measures on Aug. 26 to
help alleviate potential shortages
of grain storage space. Those
measures included easing
requirements on types of storage
space used by warehouse
operators approved under the
Uniform Grain Storage Agreement
or licensed under the U.S.
Warehouse Act.
County offices of the USDA’s
Agricultural Stabilization and
Conservation Service will continue
to process applications now on file,
Block said.
