Wheat Growers Urged to Provide Storage for 1939 Crop
W H Wellenstein, chairman of the Teton County Agricultural Conservation Committee, urges wheat growers to provide farm storage for the 1939 crop to gain loan benefits. Storage space may fill early. farm stored loan wheat earns seven cents per bushel plus loan rate and protein premium. Borrowers may settle loans by note and interest if market prices justify. The seven cents helps cover granary costs. credit can fund storage construction or repairs. Loan eligibility requires AAA allotment compliance. recent borrowers report 10 to 12 cents above local prices. The county office offers full loan information and assistance.
