| O Neill said the retailers were not
to blame. Many retailers, he said,
had been forced to buy potatoes at
what he termed ‘outrageous prices’
or to subscribe to tie-in sales “in
order to have pectatoes at all.”
“In
small neighborhood dealer is faced
many cases,” he said, “the
with trying to get higher prices in
violaticn of the
going out of business as far as the
price ceilings or
{ sale of potatoes is concerned.”
| O'Neill said there was difficulty
in getting evidence to prosecute the
but and
sistants felt they were making pro-
gress in “Breaking a manufactured

The increases in price have been

K. T. Keller Awarded Highest Masonic Medal
K. T. Keller, Chairman of the Board of Chrysler Corporation and Direc-
tor of Guided Missiles for the Department of Defense, has been awarded
the highest honorary decoration of the Masonic Order's Scottish Rite,
the Gourgas Medal, for “notably distinguished service in the cause of
I'reemasonry, humanity and country.”
Since its creation in 1938, the Gourgas Medal has been awarded to
only three other Freemasons including the late King Gustav V of Sweden
for “outstanding service in connection with the International Red Cross,”
President Harry 8. Truman in recognition of his work during World
War 11 as head of the Truman Committee, and Dr, Melvin M. Johnson,
Sovereign Supreme Commander of the Masonic Order's Supreme Coun-
cil, for his contributions in the field of mental hygiene and to Masonry.
Mr. Keller, who was coroneted a 33° Mason in 1942, is the first indus-
trialist to be awarded the Gourgas Medal. He was honored not only for
his well-known achievements in industry, but also for his outstanding
service to the country in many capacities during both war and peace.

Strip Cropping Helps
Hold Soil in Place
It's Only First Step
In Conservation Plan |
Strip cropping, an important part |
of soil conservation, is a good deal
like putting a splint on a broken
bone. The splint holds the bone |
in place, but it doesn’t knit it, |
Strip cropping helps hold the soil
| in place, but it won't rebuild rune
| down fertility.
The above picture is a beautiful
| example of strip cropping, but it
| was not accomplished by mere
contour plowing. It was accom- |
plished by sound soil conservation,
based on use and treatment of
land with all proven, appropriate
measures that are needed to keep |
it permanently productive while !
in use,
- i .
field
Strip cropping on a
just north of Neillsville, Wis,
is a beautiful example of one
step toward soil conservation.
Sound conservation means ter.
racing land that needs terracing:
‘contouring, strip cropping, and
stubble-mulching the land as need-
ed; along with use of supporting
{ measures of crop rotation, cover
| and green manure crops and the
use of the right commercial fer- |
tilizers.
No farmer should undertake a
conservation program without ex-
pert advice. He should first contact |
any one of his soil conservation
district officers and apply for as-
sistance from his district, If he
doesn’t know who his officers are,
he can locate the address of his
district office in the
or he can call his county agent,

Number of U. S. Farms
Lowest Since the 1890s
The number of farms in the Unit-
ed States has continued to decline
since the end of World War II with
the current total the lowest since
before the turn of the century.
The department of agriculture ra-
| ports there were fewer than 5.4 mil-
lion farms in the country last year.
This figure compares with approxi-
mately 5.9 million in 1945, and with
the peak number of 6.8 million in
1935.
Thus the number of American
farms has declined over 1.4 million,
or more than a fifth, in the last dec-
ade and a half—a period in which
land in farms has continued to in-
| crease and in which total agricul-
tural production has likewise shown
| a spectacular increase in aggregate
volume of products raised as well
as in total market value,
In 1900 there were some 5.7 mil-
lion farms in the U, S., approxi-
mately 350,000 more than at present,
A decade before, in 1890, the num-
| ber of farms was about 4.6 million,

‘Conservation
* Farming Pays
It wasn't too long ago that the
when a man
broke up large square fields to
start contour farming. They called
it crazy farming, But they have
seen the results: less erosion and
better crops from fewer acres.
A survey made in Southern Lan=
caster County in 1946 showed that
with 929% of the needed
conservation practices installed pro-
18 bushels more corn, 15
barley and 3 more
per acre. The

an average increase of $30 per acre
of tilled land, or an average in
crease of $18 for each acre in the
farm.
for conservation
Other interesting changes were
noted; the farms with most practi=
ces applied had slightly less acre=-
age in tilled land but produced 10
tons more grain per farm,
With the farmers
were able to purchase 135 pounds
grain unit. They
also had an average of 20 acres of
pasture which was limed and fer-
tilized compared to an average of 4
acres in pasture for the farms with
the least conservation. A common
expression heard among conserva-
tucn farmers today is “You don't
get me to go back to farming the
square fields again.”
