SEPT. 5, 1942 THE INDEX-JOURNAL, GREENWOOD, S. Page Seven Farm News about the AMA and other EXTENSION WORK County Agent Peanuts are filling out and local growers will- want to have stacking poles ready. Good peanuts require 50 poles per acre. Plans for drying.

curing and picking (threshing) are available for every grower. An Austrian pea enthusiast who plants 100 acres each fall said, "Don't plant peas without inoculation, even 1 if they did well the previous year." (The same goes for vetch.) He also fertilizes with 150 to 200 pounds of 20 per cent acid phosphate each year. Cotton has lost its leaves prematuresly in many fields this year. Most of this is due to potash deficiency. But if the stalk: is pulled 1 up and the bark removed at the groundline, and it is found that the inner bark is black, this is wilt.

Plant nothing but a wilt-resistant high yielding cotton there, from now on. Lespedeza on a livestock farm generally is worth more for hay than for seed. The hazard is less, since lespedeza, hay can be put in the same cut, while the seed crop must stay until frost and may shed its seed before a combine can be secured. A local grain farmer remarked several years ago that his binder would not cut unfertilized grain. There is sufficient mixed fertilizer for all grain and it should be put down at seeding time.

Early planting and the use fertilizer promotes spreading or tillering, according to the seed breeders Combine operators say that extra potash (under the grain) makes the stalk stand longer and the grain weigh more.

FDR's Drastic Edict Planned to Halt Runaway Rise in Living Cost Washington, Sept. P)-A drastic presidential order limiting all wages, salaries and farm prices was in store for the nation today in an unprecedented move, government offreials revealed, to thwart a threatened runaway rise in the cost of living. The responsible sources who can not be quoted by name, said the decree, as drafted by President Roosevelt for issuance on Labor Day, calls for creation of an economic administrator to carry out these policies and others designed to halt rising wartime living costs.

In effect, the presidential edict is scheduled to tighten the purse strings of every American to luxury or unnecessary. spending but open them wide to payments of debts and more taxes, and to greater war bond purchases. Almost Revolutionary Even Mr. Roosevelt's advisers who aided in preparing the message regarded it as almost revolutionary because an act of Congress virtually will be set aside by the farm price section of the order which affects a provision of the price control act specifically forbidding any price ceilings on farm products at less than 110 per cent of parity. The President will say his wartime powers and duties are sufficient authority for the order.

Already mentioned as possibilities for the post of economic administrator were Governor Herbert H. Lehman of New York, Wendell Willkie and Bernard M. Baruch. More Pay For Extra Hours General provisions of the decree as outlined by authoritative informants is expected to prohibit wage increases above the January 1, 1941, level by more than 15 per cent, the approximate rise in living costs since that date. Workers paid by the hour, however, will not be prevented from receiving more for extra hours employed, and it was indicated that those who had received more than a 15 per cent increase since January 1, 1941, will be permitted to continue on the basis of the increased pay.

While wages will constitute the amount paid by an hourly rate or- other compensation up to $75 weekly, salaries will include a- mounts ranging from that figure to $7,500 a year. It is still to be decided whether salaries will be JESSE W. PHELPS PASSES AWAY Dies At Home Of His Daughter After A Lingering Illness Jesse W.

Barley or oats planted alone or in mixtures NOW will produce much valuable grazing and then make a good grain or hay crop next year. Grazing these early planted grain fields does not reduce the future grain yields. Try it. Another farmer started 21 pigs on a self this week. They get a mixed protein supplement in one hopper and a mixture of oats, wheat and corn in the other, with a mineral mix on the side.

Pullets are receiving the best kind of attention this fall now eggs are bringing around 50c. Den't rush them too much with laying mash until the body size has been secured. Old hens kept over will probably respond to night lights now. Crimson clover goes in the grazline mixture of any farmer who has tried it one time. It is generally sowed on top of the grain and should be inoculated.

Cotton ginners in the county are prepared to draw samples of each bale and secure a free grade and staple report for the farmer.

Farm Prices Down Farm prices will be frozen also although revision may be made later on the charges for: some products with some of the revisions to be downward, it was' said. The government officials said income tax laws will be used particularly to enforce wage provis. ions of the order. Refusal to allow employers "business expense" deductions for upauthorized wage increases would bring increased taxes on employers.

As a matter of normal economy, most employers were expected to abide voluntarily by the decree. While the order 'is not expected to affect directly other costof-living angles, it is anticipated Mr. Roosevelt's message to Congress and his radio address to the public will stress necessity of more taxes, more war bond purchases, more rationing, prompt payment, of debts, and avoidance of hoarding. To Explain to Congress As for an executive dismissal of legislation bolstering farms prices, it was expected that Mr. Roosevelt would count on forestalling farm bloc protests by answering some of the objections in.

The President has said his message will not constitute a request for any legislation and consequently, it was expected he will explain his belief of necessity for freezing farm prices at present levels.
