Thirty-Five States Need Special Old-Bge Legislation 12 Units Have No Law At All Must Call Special Ses sions To Share Imme diately In Social Se curity Program Washington.—A study of old age pension laws was reported to have convinced officials that more ihan 3 5 states must call special sessions of idheir Legislatures in the next month or so if they are to share immediately in old-age be nefits of the social security law. Two of the twelve states that have no old-age pension laws— Virginia and Mississippi—have reg ularly scheduled sessions in Janu ary. Officials connected with the social security board said Kentucky, the only other state that has a reg ular session opening in January, will have to change her old-age law to conform to Federal require ments if desiring the benefits. Only one other state’s Legisla ture meets in 1936 in regular ses sion. It is Louisiana, which has no old-age pension law and whose next regular session is in May. While studies of the state laws were said by officials to be incom plete, they believed that virtually all of the 28 states that had pen sion legislation before the Federal law was enacted will have to modi fy their statutes in some respect. initials saiu tnat even JL^ciawaic whose pension law is one of thi most liberal, probably would hav< to make minor alterations in ordei to meet the requirement that hal: of the amount collected from thi estate of pension recipients be paii to the United States. While the skeleton staff so fa assembled by the security boari had not been able yet to completi its examination of thie laws it those states, some officials felt thi last seven to enact pension meas ures might meet the requirements. These were Arkansasa, Rhode Is land, Vermont, Connecticut, Mis souri, Illinois and Florida. Theii statutes were written while the Federal law was pending and in most cases they were drawn along lines prescribed by the Federal law. For this reason, officials felt that their laws might be found to make them eligible from the outset for Federal pension grants. The 12 states which have no old age pension lagislation are Alaba ma, Georgia, Kansasa, New Mexico. North Carolina, South Carolina South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia. WHY DO WE LAUGH?

Sometimes Best Not To Sell Weed Cards Tobacco growers are being warn ed not to sell any part of their allotment cards without consulting their county agent. The agents will advise the grow ers whether it will be profitable for them to sell the unused part of their cards, said E. Y. Floyd, of State College. This year, growers who sell part of their allotment cards will not receive the adjustment payment. Whether a grower should sell de pends upon the amount he would receive as an adjustment payment, as compared with the total amount for which he can sell the unused part of his allotment card. Since the adjustment payments afle based Vpon the amount of tobacco sold, and the pflice re ceived, Floyd eplained, only a qualified authority can determine the amount of each grower’s ad justment payment. Consequently, Floyd said that no grower can afford to sell any part of his card without consulting his county agent, and he should not sell any without selling all of the unused part. Sales of allotment cards must be] made through the county agent to be legal, Floyd added, and the ag ents have been instructed not to sell any part of a card unless they cai sell all that has not been used by the grower to whom it was issued.

Sees Future Profit In Raising Hogs With the current trend of pork prices, North Carolina farmers are again finding a profitable source of ncome in the production of hogs. Growers raising hogs for market should breed their sows about Novemder 1 and May 1 each year, said W. W. Shay, swine specialist at State College. By follwoing this schedule, two litters can be produced each year so that they will be ready for mar keting in September anl April re spectively, when prices are usually highest. The ideal marketing weight for a hog is around 200 pounds, Shay added. Growers raising hogs for home consumption may vary ttheir breeding date, but if they plan to sell some of their hogs, Shay said it will pay them to follow the recommended schedule.. Where pigs were f&rrowed in September, they should be weaned in October and early November. The weaning process should start by giving the pigs access to corn and fish meal or tankage. After about four weeks they should be taken completely away from the sow. Castrate the male pigs before they are completely weaned, Shay recommended. A self-feeder, in which feed may be kept before the pigs at all times, will hasten their growth.

He has lost his right arm and his nerve as the result of a tiger’s attack during the re hearsal of a dangerous stunt. Hastings, the circus owner wants him back and the doctor urges him to return but Windy fearfully refuses. He is going in search of his son Stubby.. .“his new right arm".... whom his wife bad taken .away months before. / ' The months and seasons slip by and Windy becomes a shabby, one-armed tramp, walking the highways and byways. Always there is a faint gleam of hope in his eyes that some day he will find his son. Wherever there are crowds, and the silver tinkle of children’s voices, he searches feverishly. On a bright sunny afternoon, eight years later, he sees a bill poster announcing Hasting’s Greater Circus./ A few minutes later, he hears the circus parade coming down the street. The blare of the calliope rises excit ingly above the music of the band. Windy’s eyes mist over in remembrance of past days. There is Jeff, the porter, now promoted to a new job . . . on stilts. The crowd cheers lustily as the elephants, the zebras, the circus girls and all the wagons move resplendently down the street.^ Suddenly, from one of the cars, Windy sees Hastings jump up joyfully in recognition. Stubby has been found and is at the Valkenburg Military School. Ever since Windy’s wife had died some months before, her sister Martha has had Stubby in her custody. But Martha hates Windy and it w?" ? who had urged her sister to leave h'at. Will ■ iVv . .
