THE CORSICANA, (TEXAS) FEBRUARY 1954 NINE FARM TALK By CLYDE E. JOHNSON 'Daily Sun Staff. Navarro county's annual "Farm Ownership' meeting, sponsored by the Farmers Home Administration, will bo held Feb. 24 at the American Legion building In Corsicana. FHA Secretary C.

Harrison Fendley said the all-day session would feature reports on the activities of farm families the past year. Plans for the coming year also will be made. The FHA garden committee, headed by Mrs. Lena Thompson, Route 1, Blooming Grove will sponsor the morning part of the program. The value of producing home food, and latest methods of canning and freezing foods, will be stressed.

Other members of the committee are Mrs. Harold Dozier, Route 1, Blooming Grove; Mrs. Dee Robinson, Route 2, Dawson; Mrs. Myrell Lamb, Route 2, Dawson; Mrs. Garland Gray, Roane; Mrs.

Therrell A. Talley, Roane; Mrs. Herbert Stevenson and Mrs. Ernest W. Conger, both of Route 1, Kerens.

Farmers who want to put two farms together as one for government record purposes must file applications with the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation office. ASC Manager Bob Clicque said the applications for "splits and combinations" involve both the owners and operators who must fill out a two-page questionnaire. Farms can't be combined, however, for purposes of transferring one's cotton allotment to another, Clicque poited out. Ellis county, formerly the state's top cotton producer, stood in fourth place for the 1953 crop. Hale, Lamb and Lubbock counties out-produced Ellis' 150,495 bales.

And Navarro county, which used to rank about third, has fallen to ninth place. Navarro's 1953 production was 84,331 up to Jan. 16. Farm Bureau's national chief, Allan B. Kline, believes U.

S. trade with Communist Russia would pave the way toward peace. International News Service quotes Kline as saying the U. S. should trade with Russia as she does with all other nations.

Such trade, he said, would "carry us in the direction of eventual peace." Agriculture Secretary Benson, a strong critic of farm policies of the last 20 years, attempts to justify his attacks on the price support program by saying: "Since 1933, all types of farm assistance have cost 16-billion dollars." But it might be well to remember these other facts: Since 1933, farm income has climbed from 5-billion dollars to about 33-billion dollars. That amounts to a 2S-billion-dol- lar increase. Like fertilizer for crops, farm assistance may be "costly;" but it's proven to be a good investment with high returns. "There are elements in this would turn off the torch on the Statute of Liberty if it were lighted by REA," says Illinois Senator Paul Douglas. A news story on a recent speech by Douglas says the senator has called for a congressional Investigation of threats levied against the Rural Electrification Administration.

'After 20 years of brilliant success, I believe REA is in mortal danger," said Douglas. Meanwhile, the his Wednesday news reports that interest rates on REA loans would be increased. Poultry raisers can expect more laying hens and more turkeys on Texas farms in 1954. Tho Extension Service points out that a five to eight per cent boost in the number of laying hens is foremost for the year. Also, the turkey crop in '54 is expected to top the record 60,500,000 birds raised in 1952.

Governor Allan Shivers has proclaimed March 6-13 as 4-H Club Week in Texas, honoring the 122,000 4-H members in the state. Sun Want Ads Bring Results. Uranium Doser Must Post Bond MEXICO CITY. Feb.
