(AP) A program designed to help farmers battle high costs and low prices is being reinforced at the local level, according to a farm official in charge of administering federal funds.

"Prices are too low. We need a period of no boom, no bust, just steady prices so farmers can make a living," said Ray Fitzgerald, head of the national Agricultural, Stabilization and Conservation Service. "Who knows better the conservation and farm production needs of the county better than the people who live there? By far, the county level is the most important," added Fitzgerald, speaking at a meeting of the state ASCS on Tuesday. Particpation in the ASCS at the local level has fallen off in the past 10 years, said Fitzgerald. He said there were 14,300 county office employes when he left office in 1968 and 8,200 when he returned last July.

Farmers enjoyed a boom period because of high exports but a suffering from low prices now, he added. The ASCS is an agency of the U.S. Department of Agriculture and has offices in 50 states. It also has about 2,500 offices on the county level. In Pennsylvania, there are 57 county committees.

In each county, farmers elected a three-man committee to administrate and maintain federal programs like income stabilization, grain loans and deficiency payments to supplement grain prices if the market is low. As an example of farm problems, Fitzgerald said wheat production has topped 2 billion bushels in each of the last three years.
