About 2,000 farmers report near gas depletion, 300 distributors report shortages, and 50 are labeled critical. Combines and boxcars are in tight supply while labor surpluses appear in some areas amid rising grain prices.

County Government Moves To Conserve Gasoline
Franklin County Commission authorizes Sheriff's Department to buy gasoline on the open market to ease shortages. Last week they cut five gasoline powered tandem trucks and a backhoe to 1000 gallons weekly, with reductions tied to the thistle spraying season and Noxious Weed Department use. The board also approved rezoning of five acres in Franklin Township to allow two homes, ordered a new eight horsepower lawn mower with 30 inch cut for the courthouse, and heard calls for a county court facilities project funded by a Governor’s Committee grant, with no decision on a District Court in the planned building.
