Jones County Farmers Urged to Enter Feed Grain Program
Richard O. Hartwig announced Jones county farmers have until May 31 to sign up for the 1961 feed grain plan. Oats seeded land qualifies as diverted acres and may be left standing or harvested if excess. About 45 percent of corn and grain sorghum producers are expected to participate. 544 farms already signed. Grazing restriction on diverted acres takes effect June 1 in Iowa, contradicting beliefs of immediate enforcement.
