A--16 IMPROVED CREDIT SEEN FOR FARMERS Department of Agriculture Sounds Warning Against Overproduction in 1930. By the Associated Press. The American farmer is advised by the Department of Agriculture that he | may expect more favorable marketing | credit conditions this year and & some- | what greater supply of labor at slight- ly lower wages, but is warned against figmmen overproduction in several es. The department’s annual farm out- ook report, issued for publication today. forecast a lessened demand for farm products through the Summer and Fall, as compared With the same seasons of 1929, although an improved domestic market was predicted for the closing | weeks of the year. This report, regarded by the depart- ment as “probably the most important” of its annual economic studies, is issued to guide the farmer in adjusting pro- | duction to meet needs of the Nation. ‘The forecast for 1930 listed more fav- | orable farm mortgage financing condi- tions, no immediate change in the price of fertilizers, an unchanged price level for farm machinery and less satisfac- tory production credit conditions than | a year ago in most of the South. Wheat prices were forecast as much the same as those prevailing throughout 1929. Cotton growers were warned against increased acreage, and dairy- men were advised to cull their herds closely and send more heifers to slaugh- ter to avoid a continued increase in herds. The report said heavy production of grape fruit and low prices was probable. Watermelon growers were advised to | plant & somewhat smaller acreage and apple growers were told that new plant- ings were justified only where condi- tions are unusually fatorable for high quality production. Hog prices were expected to average at least as high as in 1929 and possibly | higher.

There are seven months having & thirty-first day and the national treasury, when these roll around, will place the money in the bank of the party instead of adding it to the payroll. ‘The President justified the order by saying that the party was the organi- zation that gave rise to the revolu- tionary administration and that the government is “the genuine representa- tion of that organization.” The measure provides that the fund this created shall be used for political campaigns, social and charitable work and in- surance against illness and death of members of the party.
