Powdered soil—white, yellow, red and black—whipped up from drouth- scourged prairies by winds, traffic, closed schools, hid the sun with a veil three miles thick and spilled across the Mississippi, east- ward bound. Nauseating to many, it beat relent- lessly upon the senses of taste, touch, Crop Outlook Good As Spring Arrives Spring's advent Thursday saw farmers generally hopeful about the condition of soil for germina- tion of this year’s crop following Precipitation in all except the northwest part of the state, In the Bismarck area the pict- ure was particularly bright, total Precipitation thus far in March being 6 or three hundredths of an inch less than the normal for the entire month. Some crop experts believed suf- ficlent moisture already had been received to assure germination of Crops in most sections of the state.

The action of the AAA in remov- ing restrictions followed quickly after the year's first crop report that farmers intend to plant 17,847,- 000 acres of spring wheat as com- pared with 18,521,000 acres in 1934. Wallace said that while wheat supplies had been reduced to about normal, none of the factors which contributed to the 1933 sur- plus such as the loss of foreign mar- ever-normal granary plan. Any sur- plus would be stored on the farm un- der government loans until the fol- lowing crop year when a further re- duction in acreage would be made to bring the total supply to normal. The crop reporting board estimated national plantings of 18 crops, not in- cluding cotton, at 285.775.000 acres, compared with the extremely short harvested acreage of 244,486,000 in 934, Maximum Acreage Seen for Burleigh on a recent survey made in the county which reveals that s large majority of the farmers intended seed supplies and feed for their horses but despite these factors, I blieve there will be a notable in- crease in the acreage plantings now that the contract restrictions have been removed,” Altenburg stated. Reductions In 1936 Wallace announced that spring wheat farmers, instead of reducing acreage by the 10 per cent which was decreed last fall, will be allowed to Plant their full acreage and make a larger reduction in their 1936 plant- ings. Wallace added that unlimited acre- ages would be allowed this spring but that corresponding reductions would be required in 1936. Threats of a 1935 drouth and a de- sire to avoid a wheat shortage led the agriculture adjustment adminis- tration to this decision, Wallace de- clared. He characterized it as a “duty of government and the farmers” to Protect consumers from a shortage. He also said it was a “duty of gov- ernment and consumers” to protect farmers from the piling up of sur- Pluses and resulting low prices. “Adaptation of the wheat program is one of a series of steps taken by the agricultural adjustment adminis- tration, first to help the farmers through the worst drouth on record
