New Signers in Wheat Program Expected Here

Lorain county wheat growers who did not sign contracts under the federal wheat adjustment program last year are offered a chance to participate again and share in payments for reducing acreage. Signers this spring will receive the second payment about five cents per bushel on their 1934 allotments, but not the first payment already made. Full participation in next year’s payments is possible. Restrictions require a 15 percent reduction from the three year average, with options to plow, cut for hay, or leave grain only if no later production results. Inspection is likely next month.

One Company for Fixed Monthly Car Payment Plan

Reduce your payments with a single company and one payment each month. We offer a plan to lower monthly car or other account payments. Keep taxes and insurance current, avoid lapses, and borrow for worthy purposes. No cosigners. A representative can visit your home to explain the plan. Loans available in nearby towns.

Wheat allotment program details clarified by committee

Wheat growers will have no general meetings this spring as most are familiar with the program. A date for receiving applications will be announced soon. Those wishing to sign contracts should contact county allotment committee members per Hummel.
