Pollution and REAP Aid for Farm Pollution Control

Eugene V. Sterup explains pollution from farming can be invisible and buildup occurs slowly. A Polk County ASCS leaflet describes REAP cost sharing for soil, water, woodland and wildlife conservation, with steps for farmers to review operations, consult the ASCS office, file cost share requests, and obtain final approval from the County ASC Committee. The leaflet is available in Polk County and a speaker can be provided for groups. Mr and Mrs Donald Haggert were supper guests in the P W Aker home Monday evening.

Aged 13 to 15 may drive implements of farm machinery on public roads with a temporary state permit costing 1.00 valid until 1971 October. At 16 a standard license is required for motorized farm equipment excluding tractors. A 13 year old may obtain the permit if working for parents. 14 or older may drive for nonparents. Working for neighbors requires meeting federal hazardous occupation rules in addition to the state permit.
