Will Maintain
12-Cent Limil
Promises Peg For 193!
Drop, Death for 3-Bale
Ernemption, Rigid
Crop Control
POINTS OUT FLAWS
Waahiuagton.—The south ha.
str«g assurance that the adminis
traden does not intend to let cottoi
prices get out of hand.
A peg for the 1935 crop, virtual
ly certain senate death for th
house-approved three-bale exemp
tion bill, and promised rigid pro
ducticn control under the Bankheac
act have been responses to the sev
.ere marlr* plunge.
Secretary Wallace announcec
loans will be made on the 1935
crop, but did not state whether tht
present 12-cents-a-pound rate will
be continued.
After a call at the White House,
Senator George, Democrat of Geor
gia, went further by predicting that
President Roosevelt would give
"positive assurance” that the 193 5
crop will not be permitted to sink
below the 12 cents.
The recent price decline, though
; attributed chiefly to the three-bale
I exemption bill and the possibility
the loans might be abandoned pre
cipitated talk of a general tighten
ing of the Bankhead control pro
gram.
Wallace made the first move in
I this direction, declaring the gov
| ernment will make no loans on the
I 1935 crop "to any producer who is
! not co-operating in the cotton pro
gram under the Agricultural Ad
, justment act nor will any loans be
i made on the 193 5 crop to any pro
ducer for an amount of cotton in
excess of his allotment under the
Bankhead act.”
Wallace, in his statement, made
it plain small producers with an es
tablished base production of not
more than two bales will be ex
empt from the Bankhead rax. This
was taken as a direct administration
rejection of the three-bale exemp
tion bill, which many authorities
contend, if made law, would cause
a complete breakdown of the com
pulsory adjustment program.
Cully A. Cobb, head of the AAA
cotton section, said the three-bale
exemption bill would work "the
grossest injuries as between va
rious types of producers within
communities, within counties, with
in states, and then as between
states in the cotton belt.”
“With the three-bale exemption
to all individuals,” Cobb said,
"there would be numerous counties
in which this type of producer
would require more than the total
allotment to these counties, thus
i
leaving no cotton available to be al-l
lotted to other producers in these
same counties. Even to meet the
necessary allotment to those in the
three-bale class, it would be neces
sary to draw upon other counties
in the state. As between states,
there would be a general movement
of cotton away from certain states
to other states.
This would have the effect of
drawing cotton away from the es
tablished cotton-producing counties
and regions and allotting it to those
counties and those regions which
normally produce small quantities
per individual producer.”
To put the proposed exemption
into effect, Cobb pointed out also,
it would be necessary to rewrite all
tules and regulations, to rework
the method of procedure and revise
all forms and literature required
to put the program into effect this
year.

The ‘liquid test’
... it g!IU$ bowel worries
for many people
This is a test that tells you whethe
the system needs a cathartic change
If you have constant sluggish spell
or bilious attacks, and laxatives seen
to make things worse, it would bi
wise to try this:
Stop all use of any laxative tha
does not encourage variation from i
“fixed dose” (which may be entirely
too large a dose for your individua
need). Use instead, a liquid laxativi
that you can measure and regulati
as to dose. As necessary to repeat
take smaller doses, less and less often
until the bowels are moving withou'
any help at all.
~ Doctors use liquid laxatives, am
a properly prepared liquid laxative
containing natural laxative agent
like senna and cascara is a joy am
a comfort; a real help in establishing
regularity. Ask your doctor abou
this! (Doctors use liquid laxatives.'
You can get Dr. Caldwell’s Syruf
Pepsin, which is a most dependabh
liquid laxative, at any drug store.

. Beauty and Eye Comfort Both Helped When Light Is Right
These illustrations show wrong and right ways for
lighting an easy chair. The lamp above is of the
decorative type and is not designed for reading.
At right is shown an approved type that enables
the reader to relax and enjoy real comfort.
By Jean Prentice
XJTT HEN you read, do you ever have
” to poke your nose under the very
tip of the lamp shade to get enough
light? If you do, you’re not only un
comfortable, but are risking serious
eyestrain, as well.
And those tell-tale wrinkles that
come from squinting, aren’t they a
rather heavy penalty to pay for mis
use of light and abuse of the eyes?
Lamp Design Important
The illustration at upper left shows
just what I mean. The reader liter
ally has to reach over in her chair
to get enough light by which to see.
Or, if she sits naturally, she doesn’t
get sufficient illumination. That is
because the lamp she is using is of
tiie decorative type, and was not de
signed to provide light for reading be
side a low end-table. It might serve
the purpose if the end-table were 30"
high, thus raising the height of the
lamp; or if the lamp itself were 18
or 22 inches tall, and equipped with
two 60-watt bulbs.
Proper Light Aids Comfort
Now take a look at the upper right
illustration. Isn’t the difference in
p!” : -al comfort readily apparent? Of
c Here we have the same
woman, perfectly relaxed, and not
having to cramp her abdominal mus
cles or strain her eyes. You will
notice that the lamp is placed on an
even line with the back of the chair,
so that even when the reader lodes
up to talk with others in the room,
the light doesn’t glare into her eyes,
or in them's.
A nice feature about this type of
floor lamp, which is just about ideal
for use beside an easy chair, is that 1
it provides indirect as well as direct
lighting. The softening quantity of
the indirect portion provides a gentle
scattering of light throughout the
room, making paper or magazines
easier to concentrate upon.
Avoid Harsh Contrasts
This is not the case with the lamp
shown at left, which gives such a
small circle of useful light that the
rest of the room is in comparative
darkness. You know, science warns
against the possible danger to eyes
from having harsh contrasts between
the light on our books or papers and
the surrounding area. For, it says,
when die eyes lode up from the page
into the room—as they often do with
out our realizing it—they must “shift
gears,” so to speak; and this tends to
tire them and induce strain.
Land Crows Corn
In Fruit Jars,
Says Tom Crotts
It just looks like this place
jrows liquor,” an officer testified
'n county court Tuesday that
Tom Crotts, who resides several
rules east of Lexington, comment
ed when deputies made the third
successful search in the vicinity of
bis home recently. Twice in De
cember local officers had gone to
the Crotts place and they testified
that each time they found traps
containing considerable quantities
af liquor. One was near the hog
pen, the other not far from the
spring used by the family of the de
fendant. The third case the defend
int was facing arouse from a
raid made about two weeks ago.
And that was when Tom is report
ed to have remarked on the pro
ductivity of his soil. He had ab
sented himself upon a former oc
casion.
Judge D. L. Pickard imposed a
sentence of twelve months on the
roads in one case and imposed like
sentences to run concurrent with
the first in the other two cases.
Crotts gave notice of appeal to
superior court and bonds totalling
$600 were fixed.—Lexington Dis

Keep Brooders Clean
! o Save Baby Chicks
Protecting baby chicks from
coccidiosis in the spring will go a
long way toward reducing their
death rate, says Roy S. Dearstyne,
head of the State College poultry
department.
The chicks are infected by pick
ing up the tiny eggs of the para
site which causes the disease, Dear
styne says. The eggs are frequent
ly found on the ground and in the
brooder houses when older birds of
the flock have been infected.
To control the disease, he recom
mends that all infected chicks be
killed and burned or buried deeply.
Thoroughly clean out the litter or
sand from the brooder house at
least every other day and replace
with clean dry sand about one third
of an inch deep. Continue this
frequent cleaning until the disease
is checked.
Feeding and drinking containers
should be sterilized every few days
with boiling water, since ordinary
disinfectants are of no practical
lvalue on controlling this disease,
Dearstyne points out.
If the weather is not too hot,
:onfine the chicks to the brooder
louse for at least seven days to keep
them from picking up coccidial
:ggs from the ground outside the
louse where diseased chicks may
lave ranged.
Meanwhile, plow or spade the in
ected runways, if possible, so as
o bring uninfected earth to the
urface. Otherwise, the chicks
liould be provided with an unin
ecited range by some other method.
Avoid tracking germs into the
irooder house or placing in the
louse any material which may be
nfected. Keep up the chick’s vit
ility by feeding a balanced ration
,nd caring for them properly.
’OWERFUL MOTIVE
It was the young barrister’s first
ase, and he was bubbling over with
iride and enthusiasm as he stood in
ourt.
"Now”, said he, addressing the
lefendant, "you say you came to
own to look for work. I put it to
ou, there was another, a stronger ]
aotive that brought you all this
istance.”
"Well”, hesitated the defendant,
there was—”
"Ah!” cried the barrister trium
hantly. "And what was it?”
"A locomotive.”
