Reports From
Washington
By Lyndon 1J. Johnson
Farm Bill
Senate last week passed thet
agricultural appropriations bill
voting $710770000 for the
Agriculture Department for the
195-1 fi?oal lear. That's about
$20500000 below appropria-
tions for the current year.
The bill provides $195000-
O00 .for payments to farmers
carrying out soil conservation
practices. The (Administration
had asked $1-10000000 for this
purpose.
We were able to get the tend-
ing authority of the HE A for
the year 195-1 increased from 30
million dollars as provided in
live House bill 'to '15 million.
Lending authority for rural
telephones was raised to G7 mil-
lion from the 50 million provid-
ed in the Hcusc measure. These
sums will be ued only for loans
of course and the co-ops have
an excellent record of payment.
Wheal Prices
Wheat led a sharp downturn

in commodities last week
Prices tumbled to stme of the
lowest leveh in three years.
Prospect is ithat this sum-
mer's harvest will pile up a sur-
plus of over 700 million bushels'.
A this is writton legislation is
planned to set the minimum
planting allotment for next year
at GG million acres. Without
passage of this legislation
plantings would have to be re-
duced to 55 million acres. This
might lend to growers disap-
proving marketing quotaw and
thus losing high level price sup-
port. I
Cotton Quotas
Drastic cutbacks in cotton
acreage in Texan and several
other states would be prevented
by passage of legislation in-
troducd in the House last week.
This legislation would bass
acreage allotments en average
production for the last three
years would limit reduction to
25 per cent in any state The
present formula would compel
an ovenll cutback of 39 per
cent in Texaw.

tinuing price support program
for cottonseed. The prent
program supports cottonseed at
90 per cent cf parity the ame
level at which wheat corn to-
bacco rice peanuts and cotton
are supported. But the law only
permits does not require
support for cottonseed.
About half the products from
last year's cot touted crop are
said to have been turned over
to the Government under the
support program. Included in
the Government's holding are
nearly a billion pounds of cot-
tonseed oil. Thwt's almost ms
much as i's used in food prod-
ucts in a year's time.
Farm Fact
Report on the Farm Census
of 1950 has just been issued.
It whows that when the Cen-
sus was taken Texas had 331-
5G7 farms. That was 86-135
fewer than in 19-10. But this
smaller number of farms took
in 7705 (312 acres more than
the larger number of 19-10 for
a total of 1-15.38901-1 acres.

DUALITY MILLS OF AUSTIN
Quality Mills is now in the process of securing
approval for government storage and should be ready
in pleJnty of time to serve the grain producers of this area
during the coming grain season.
I am leasing only the government storage facil-

and the grain and storage business at Taylor with my
main office in Taylor.
Quality Mills is one of the oldest and most quali-
fied concerns in this business and will be able to give

age to the new concern here.
