yearn old, and 196,000 will be
death, payments to estates of
workers who die before reaching
this age or who reach age 65
before qualifying for annuity pay
ments.
The Bureau’s claims exper
ience to date reveals that approxi
mately 70 per cent of wage earn
ers who die leave a widow or
widower, and in 50 per cent of
the cases wherein an application
for death payments has been fil
ed, no other assets have been re
ported aside from the amount to
be certified tor payment by the
Federal Government.
Claims actually submitted dur
ing the year may not equal these
totals, because some claimants
may not apply for small amounts,
and some claims may not be filed
within the year.
‘‘As payment of Federal old-age
benefits claims spreads, posses
sion of a social security account
number by every eligible worker
becomes more Important.” Mr.
Hodges said, "since the payments
are made ®n the basis of wages
received by the worker and re
corded by the Board in his Social
Swurlty account. These wage re
ports will be made on informa
tion returns submitted by the
employer and will include the

Crotalaria Is Good
Soil'Building Crop
Crotalaria, a legume which has
been used for several years by
farmers in Florida and in the
Carolina sandhills to build up
poor, tliin soil, has been introduc
ed on several farms in the Hunt
ersville erosion control .area, ac
cording to agronomist H. O. Beck
of the Soil Conservation Service.
Agronomists of the Service
recommend that crotalaria be
seeded on .sandv soils whidh( are
low in fertility •.•■’'1 deficient In
organic matter and 'wliich are
unsiiited to the production of lee-
pedeza.
It is not advisable to seed cro
talaria near the barn, pasture or
poultry range. Beck warned, as
the seed of certain strains (such
aft Crotalaria spectabills) are poi
sonous. This should not worry
farmers, however, since livestock
will not eat the foliage.
In the Piedmont region erotal-
aria should be seeded broadcast
at the rate of 25 or 30 pounds to
the acre, though good results
(have been obtained from 15 to
20 pounds per acre.
On tne farm of J. L. Choate,
two milee south of Huntersville
just off the Charlotte highway,
a severely eroded, candy 4-acre
field which was seeded in crotal
aria last year su'pports a dense
stand of plants averaging 6 feet
in height.
In the event the crotalaria does
not re-seed itself in that section,
Choate will plow it under and
seed the area to another crop.
The crop which follows will be
henefttted greatly from tho in
creased nitrogen supply added to
the soil by the legume and by
the Increased organic matter
■which improves the physical tex
ture of the soil.
