The new iwiieat program will offer two choices to the farm operator with a 1964 wheat allotment of less than 15 acres: (1) He may choose to participate in the program as an allotment grower, in which case he will be eligible to vote in the wheat referendum, will qualify for price support, and will receive his share of marketing certificates. (The certificates will provide a higher rate of price support and will be available on about 80 percent of the normal yield on the allotted acreage. A lower rate of support will be available on the rest of the wheat produced on the farm.) A small grower will also have the opportunity to divert all his allotment to conserving uses at the high rate. (2) He can stay out of the program, and plant wheat up to the larger of his base or his 1964 allotment. Marketing quota penalties will apply to wheat in excess of this limit. He will not be eligible to vote in the referthe endum. He will receive no price support He can sell his wheat at the wheat market price, or as seed or feed, or use it in any way that he likes. Mr. Nish pointed out that these small farm operators with wheat allotments of less than 15 acres will be asked to register their choice at the ASCS County Office at least 7 days prior to the time the iwheat referendum is held. This will be within 60 days after proclamation of the national wheat marketing quota, which will not likely be announced until early April. The program will become effective if at least of the growers voting approve the program. two-thir- ds that it is Do you know better for your freezer if you defrost it as seldom as possible? This is true, according to Jessie M. Eller, County Home Agent. There are a number of things you can do to cut down the number of times you defrost the freezer if you do not have one that will defrost itself, Mrs. Eller says. "Open the freezer seldom. The more you open your freezer, the more frost col lects in it. This is especially important in the summer because the air is more moist on much more dependent labels for guidance. The label must include: 1. Usual or common name of the product In clear type. 2. Net contents of the con- tainer either by volume. weight or 3. List of ingredients unless a standard of identity has been set by the government. 4. Name and address of manufacturer, packer, Or distributor. 5. The variety, style and packing medium of the product when this is important. 6. Dietary properties. Dietetic foods must be clearly labeled and identified. 7. The presence of any artificial color, flavor, or preser- vative. 8. If quality or filling is below standard, this must be stated on the label In addition to these require ments, many manufacturers include on the labels other in formation to help the shopper such as a picture of the food, recipes and number of servings. Most canners prefer des criptive labels to grade labels (such as Grade A, B, or C) since they are of more value to the average consumer in selecting the desired product. A brief meaningful description of the product (as very tender or mature) helps the purchaser decide which to buy, based on the use, food budget, and family needs. then. Mrs. Eller says time and "See that the food you money may be saved if the freeze goes into the freezer customer reads labels careful in good, well .closed frozen ly and buys according to her food containers or is wrapped needs and purchasing power. right in good frozen food packaging materials. If you do this, the moisture from the food will not seep through the packages and settle as irosi on the freezer. Do not mishandle the food in the freezer because the wrapping may be damaged. "Be sure the gasket on tne door or lid fits. If the gasket does not fit, the freezer may not be level; the door hinges or latch may need adjusting. You can tell if it does not fit because black mold will form on and around it. To remove this mold, appply 50 perecent solution of household bleach with a tooth brush. Thoroughly rinse with clear water and wipe dry. "And one other way .to cut down on defrosting is to scrape the frost off occasionally with a scrapper made for the purpose or with a blunt tool. However, when tne irosi covers a large area of the freezer Vi inch thick, then it is time ,to defrost and clean the inside of the freezer," Mrs. Eller says. item- unlimited production.

I do not know which New England state is the home of the "New Ensrland Home stead", but no New England state Mam, New HampMassachushire, Vermont, setts. Conneticut or Rhode Island produces as much as one half of one percent of the wheat raised in the United States; which makes the art icle sound like the editor has been propaganda reading from foes of the farm program from the wheat states. The article states that sides have been taken, and the battle between free enterprise and government controls is on. It seems to me that someone connected with this 109 year magazine should be able to remember that in the late 20 s or early 30 s midwestern farmers were using corn for fuel, as it was cheaper than coal; and wheat was priced as low but would not burn well. I euess that is what the editor calls free enteuprise. It was free enterprise and almost free corn. I don't think farmers want to see anymore of that.
