THE NEOSHO TIMES, JUNE "7., 1934 U.S. TO START BUYING SURPLUS CATTLE Wrotith Relief Program Is Announced by Farm Administrator Davis. Washington, May C. Davis, farm administrator, announced yesterday that purchase of 1,200,000 cattle to remove surpluses from drouth-stricken areas of the north central, midwestern and southwestern states would befit, tomorrow. The administrator communicated during the day with Dr.

E. W. Sheets, director of Emergency drouth relief, who is in St. Paul surveying drouth damage and coordinating the federal program. Sheets reported no improvement of conditions.

Cattle will be bought on a selective basis with definite minimum and maximum limits for various classes of animals Davis suid. Protection is to be provided for both debtors and creditors in cases where cattle are under mortgage. The better cattle will go to the needy after being processed. Diseased and poor cattle wil; be destroyed on the farms. Davis added that farmers who Stock THE NEOSHO TIMES, THURSDAY, JUNE 7, 1984 Monday, 3 FORAGE SEEDS Cane, Kaffir, Hegari, Grohoma, MiloMaize, Feterita, Stock Peas, Soybeans Millet, 'Sudan Grass PHIL RATLIFF "sell cattle to the government un der the emergency plan must agree to participate in the future cettle adjustment program of the administration, with present reductions and payments to be counted.

Drouth conditions in the West were called "unprecedented" today by the weather bureau at Washington, which said damage was spreading to the- Pacific northwest. "In most areas from Nebraska northwestward, including central and eastern Montana, winter grains condnued to deteriorate vith some reported beyond recovery, and other fields to be abandoned soon if no rains occur," the bureau said. "In most Western dry land sections serious conditions prevail, while in the Pacific northwest rain is needed, with some deterioration rioted, although in better districts some coil moisture is sustaining winter wheat." The bulletin added that severe drouth continues throughout the Ohio valley and from the central Mississippi and western lake region, westward almost to the Pacific coast. Corn was reported making uneven and poor progress in southern portions of the corn belt. In Iowa, largest corn producing state, approximately one-third of the acreage has been planted in dust and has not germinated, the report said.

Meadows, pastures and spring-sown small grain crops were suffering especially except in limited areas, the largest of which is the eastern half of Kansas. Some oats is being abandoned or pastured, winter wheat in many sections is at a i standstill or showing deteriora-! tion spring wheat is suffer- ing severely. Augmenting the drouth menace in the northern states were hordes of grasshoppers which have begun to feed on crops in Minnesota, the Dakolas, Montana, ccnsin and Michigan.
