Roadside shop note hints at milk cost and monologue

Excess Wheat Penalty Fixed At $1.10 Per Bushel
Palo Alto county ASC chairman Joe Lynch announced the 1958 excess wheat penalty under marketing quotas is $1.10 per bushel, about 45 percent of its May parity price. Penalty applies to wheat produced beyond allotments unless under limits or granted farm permission to raise up to 30 acres. Only compliant wheat qualifies for price support, with No. 1 wheat support at least $1.21 per bushel, potentially higher if parity rises by July 1, 1938.
