Timely Topics For The Farm \U H. K. SANDERS, COUNTY AGENT Wheat Program Is Real National Plan The plan for wheat production adjustment, detail* of which will be explained to farmers of the coun try during the next few weeks, is distinctly a national plan, worked out with the needs of America's 14200,000 wheat growers as a whole In mind. Local conditions in the various wheat growing Sections of the coun try vary somewhat in detail, but the Agricultural Adjustment Ad ministration's general wheat pro gram has been designed to meet the best possible average of national conditions. Base period* upon which produc tion averages will be determined, both for States and counties and for the individual grower, will naturally j affect certain local sections some what differently than others. Thej periods selected, however, have been considered carefully to strike the best possible national average. State and county yield averages are to be based upon production re cords for the five-year period from 1928 through 1932, Inclusive; while averages for individual growers will be based upon yield* for the three year period from 1930 through 1932, Inclusive. It is upon these aver ages that the "allotments" for States, counties, and individual farmers will be determined. These allotment*, upon which the com pensation payments will be based, will be the proportion of the aver age production for the base period which corresponds to the propor tion of the national wheat crop which is used domestically for hu man consumption? something le*s than five -eighths. Production reductions, which may be required for the 1934 and 1935 crop years Of growersWho partici- ! pate in the compensation benefits of the wheat plan, will be in terms of acres, based upon the average Seeded acreage of each grower for the period from 1930 through 1932. j This reduction, which will not ex ceed 20 per cent and may be less, will be determined by the Secretary of Agriculture after careful consid eration of the entire wheat situa tion. according to M. L. Wilson, chief of the wheat production ad ministration. . ft i i ? New Farm Problems To Be Discussed Meeting here in connection with the thirty-first annual North Caro lina farmers' week and eight other agricultural organizati on s the American Institute of Cooperation will be in session on the State Col lege campus during the week of July 24-29. An Institute attendance record is expected to be sfet this summer. The present record of 1,700 was set in 1930 when the Institute met at Ohio State University. That sum-! mer 35 states and five foreign countries were represented. State. College officials have already re ceived reservations from a number of the far western states including Washington and California. As a means of accommodating the attendance during the week, C. A. Sheffield, assistant director of agricultural extension at State Col lege, has Secured the dormitories of Meredith College for the week. More than two thousand people are expected to hear the opening address Monday evening by Henry! A. Wallace, Secretary of Agricul ture. Institute officials say that Walllace will threw further light on lys farm plans. He is also expected to speak about some of the other agricultural steps he and his aides | are expected to {take under th$ | new farm relief act with regard to stabilization of markets, increase of farm prices and control of produc tion. ,... Several of Secretary Wallace's aides in Washington will be here : during the week to gpeak to the1 Institute. Approximately 63 papers on important agricultural problems will be presented during the weekj by outstanding agriculturists of the j United States. o Women Drop Cares .For Week's Outing North Carolina farm women, members of the home demonstra- j tion clubs, will drop their hoiute- \ hold cares, turn the children over to older boys and girls or the good] husband, and journey to State Col- j lege during the week of Ja'y 24 j to 29 for their annual short course. "Times are still hard and actual cash is scare, but reduced rates on buses and train*, twenty-five cent meals and a room free of charge at the college may bring a vacation within the means of many fami lies," said Mrs. Jane 8. McKlmmon, in announcing plans for the 4hort course. "It is not easy for farm women to leave their homes, I know. Children miut be provided for, household work turned over to some one else and the hundred and one things that only a mother can do, must be left suspended until she returns. I hope the whole family will Join in providing a way for I mother's vacation and send her off to the short course in spite of her {protests that there is too much to do at hpme." Mrs. McKimmon said it is a joy j to see middle-aged women chum | ming together like girls in the col lege dormitories. The program for the short course offers something new and varied this- year;. The art of cookery, sell ing things at the curb market, a canning clinic, health studies, the{ comfortable and beautiful home, the ! family wardrobe and a host of other subjects will be reviewed by the women during the few days they are away from home. There will also be interesting general meetings and gome time for recrea tion. ? On Thursday, the state meeting of the Federation of Home Demon stration clubs will be held, and, on Friday, there will be the graduation exercises for those women who have j attended four consecutive short 1 courses. o Program Completed For Farm Convention Ten different farm organizations will meet at State College during Farm and Home Week, July 24 to 29, when the 31st annual State Farmers' and Farm Women's Con vention will be held.

The first sixteen coun- l ties named produce over 100,000 bu- I shels of wheat annually, and the others between 80 and 90 thousand bushels. -oOo Question: What does sanitation in a poultry house mean? Answer: Sanitation means a lot to some poultrymen and not so much to others. We should use our common sense. Manure should not be allowed to accumulate ..on the dropping boards; Utter should not become soggy and sour; dJ-iftklng fountains should be cleaned once a day and sterilized once a week; clean nests should be the rule and the mash hoppers should be scraped out occasionally, especially in damp weather. This is a good beginning in Sanitation in the poultry house. -oOo Question: How much does it cost to attend the Farmers' Convention? Answer: Only your transporta tion to and from State College and for your meals while there. The college makes no charge for Its dor mitory rooms during that week. Delegates and viators at the con vention must bring the necessary sheets, towels and toilet articles Meals are served in the college din ing hall at a cost of about 25c each person. -40 GETTING OUT OF DEBT We have seen a statement re cently, prepared by men who have made a deep study of the subject, that the United States and its in habitants are in debt to the tune of one hundred and thirty-four thousand million dollars. That in cludes all governmental debts, Fed eral, state and local, the debts of the railroads, public utilities and industries, mortgage debts and fi nancial bond issues. There is no manner of doubt that in the great boom era credit was far too easy, men and institu tions went into debt recklessly, and that the great problem of the hour is how debtors can be enabled to pay their debts without at the same time ruining their creditors. Short of universal bankruptcy ? for the rest of the world is much In the same boat ? the path back to sol vency is bound to be & slow and painful one. We are not at ail sure that all of the plans proposed at Washington to lighten the bur dens of individual and corporate debtors will work as. planned, but they are at least a long step to pullinB US out of the hole. The problem of the debtor who can't pay is as old as humanity, in the 15th chapter of Deuteronomy we find the way in which the an cient Israelites solved it. "At the end of every seven years thou shalt make a release. And this is the manner of the release: Every credi tor that lendeth aught unto his neighbor shall release it; he shall! shall not exact it of his neighbor1 or of his brother, because it is called the Lord's release. Of a foreigner thou mayest exact it ^fin' butu that which is thine to* brother thy hand shaU release." Forgiveness of debts was one of Peter Finds Home . Because his picture resembled a I con who had drowned, Peter Christ opolis, 13, in an Omaha Orphan Horn* since being 2 years old, is now living in the home of Jean Strenga, a wealthy silk manufacturer of Paterson, N. J. It is a 3 month trial. If satisfactory to both Peter will then be adopted. the tenets of the early Christians, and the plea comes down to us in the Lord's Prayer. Perhaps too many debtors of our day expect to be released without any payment whatever. We would not go so far as to advocate the Chinese system, under which for thousands of years every Chinese had to settle all. his debt# every New Year's Day, with the alterna tive, if he failed, of committing sui cide or entering into slavery to his creditors. But we do believe that most of us would be better off if we never had been able to borrow on long terms, but only for short periods, and then only as much as we could satisfy a reasonable credi tor we could pay when due. ?

We say that with no belligerent spirit. We hope we shall never have to use our Navy for anything but police duty. But these are un settled days in International af- : fairs, and we do not believe that our nation, the most powerful in the world, should drop into a po sition of inferiority as compared with other sea powers. We hare heard reports that some people of other nations think the United States has gone completely paci fist and that we are either too cow ardly or too stingy to provide for our national defense. From that 1 state of mind it is but a step for some of them to find an excuse for trying to use force to take some thing away from us. The spending of $238,000,000 in new naval construction will not only bring our Navy up to full trety standards, but it will provide im mediate work for a great number of wage-earners. The Government estimates that more than 18,000 men will be employed directly in the shipyards. But to build ships steel must be fabricated, huge armies of men must be put to work making guns and armor-plate, building en gines and electrical equipment and all the rest of the .fittings and equipment which go into a man of-war.
