PAGE TWO Farmers Will Be Told Os AAA Program College Station. Raleigh. Sept. 12. —Farmers will know ‘ill details of the 1940 AAA ir.rm program ir plenty of time to plan cropping operation' before planting time, E. V. Floyd. AAA executive officei at Stale Col lege, said today. The provisions ot the program, which has already been approved, follow closely those in efiect this year, especially the parts dealing with agricultural conservation. The wneai allci.ncni or 62.000,'*00 acres, larger by ~.UO 0 acres than the 1939 allotment, has been an nounced, ana acn ige goals tor other major cash crops, together with rates of payment, will be established later in view of devel ping conditions. The State Coßege AAA executive officer explained that changes ;n the 1940 program recognize special conditions in certain areas and em phasize soil conservation on all farms the country over. Thorough considers* on was given to the present European situation and its possible effect on American agriculture when the 1940 program was drafted. The aim of the program, Floyd explained, is to maintain a production of farm commodities in this country which will balance with the demand and to maintain and improve the fertility of farm land. An important provision which will encourage further soil conservation measures on small farms insures that as much as ?2C may be earned on every farm participating in the pro gram. Another important conseivation provision will encourage the plant ing of forest trees on farms by al lowing farmers to earn up to S3O for tree planting, in aadif m to the regulai soil-building allowance for the farm. Sluggish prices have caused the Federal Surplus Commodities Cor poration to start buying surplus sweet potatoes in Currituck county, announces John Goodman, assistant director at State College. WMTTDi FOR AND RELEASED Ut crvK.r' rRF c " association ijfflmi y C /REN ARNOLD CHAPTER FORTY EVEN THOUGH the trail was winding ard rough in placer a man could easily drive a truck from the Brazee home to Blanco, Arizona, 12 miles, in 30 or 40 minutes. Jerry Dale made the trip this afternoon in less than 25. The truck he drove was not the light pickup. It was the larger one with high-barred side and end frame work, used to haul his prize bulls. At times he had to bring ex pensive stock iruin Tucson, or even from Phoenix. At other times he had to take men. in to the uri\er sity for weighing and inspection, or had to shif* cows to another ranch for testing on specified rmge conditions t''cre. Jerry’s work was an interesting and truly sigmftci it one, as George Erazee had known. This afternoon, though, Jerry was not concerned witn cattle at all. He rolled into B’anco at almost alarming speed, locked the wheels in front of Earlywine’s general store there, and jumped down from the cab. "Listen, Early vice, has Rogers been in here? Shot Rogers?” “Why, no. Nawp, ain’t seen him, , Mr Dale.” j “Hasn’t, eh? How about yesterf : day? Ye? f e’*day morning. You sel him'then; Anywhere in town?” “Nawp, not none.” ;'' " i "And, uh, Lorena Ham- 1 ilton, staying put at our place. Mrs. 1 Brazee a niece. She been in? You heard about her, maybe?” I ‘Shore have. Put haven’t seen hide nor hair us uei, neither.” /:■ Jerry walked out. He visited the ( railroad station agent, the post office, the lene hotel where presid ed a gossipy matrer who saw, ; heard, knew or imagined practi cally everything. Ever, this later j personage declined any knowledge of Shot Rogers and Uorena Ham- i ilton. But She sensed something. “Have they took and got into trouble, Mr. Dale? Shot’n her, I < mean ? ■ I don’t know where they are. I ] don’t know anything about them.’’ j Jerry didn’t like the w ■'man. “Well, you was askin’. I always ; say if there’s smoke there’s fire. Now I’ll bet 'he s one to drive the men to rashness, the way they’ve : all been a-talkin’ about how she come out here from the east and bad a sct- s o with them Mexicans j of Escobar's. Wasn’t it Shot Rogers what loaned her his horse that day, i and wasn’t it you that he hit with : bis fist at the dance that every wasn’t W ” 3 a ‘ talkin ’ about * and i °r Sod’s sake, woman!” Jerry : walked off and left her glaring. , i The municipality— unmeorporat- i ed— of Blanco boasted one gentle man who had out a sign with “Dr.” in front of his nar e. He delivered b&bies. He doctored such occasional maladies as billiousness, broken legs, flux, rheumatism and other things that beset ranch people. He .could make a sick horse or cow - well sometimes. And he could fill or pull human teeth. Jerry went to his office and found the old man asleep. Awakened with some effort, he swore he had not seen Lorena Hamilton, but was it true that some men out at Brazee’s Phantom ranch had got into a cutting Scraps because of her, and why Polish Relief Head Gen. Aleksander Osinski General Aleksander Osinski, former inspector general of the Polish army and now president of the Polish Red Cross, arrives in New York after perilous crossing on the Polish liner Ba*ory. He seeks American help in relief work for war-torn Poland. f Central Press) Raaio rrr-?

Meanwhile. State Department of ficials studied in silence a report that a German submarine commander had served notice that “all Amer ican ships which disregarded com mands to halt would be fired upon.” They considered as well the state meat that Great Eritain had seized as contraband a cargo of rosin con signed to Hamburg, Germany, on an American vessel. Officials declined any immediate comments on these reported in cidents. Food Supplies Ample. Other Washington developments: The Agriculture Department gave the nation’s housewives new assur ances of ample food supplies in a “Has Rogers been in here? Shot Rogers?” wasn’t he called to doctor the wounds ? Jerry left him in added disgust and went back to the hotel. The proprietor began gabbing at once, but he only enough to get by her, went inside and began struggling with her wall telephone. In remarkably short time he had the Douglas, Ariz., operator. When he had placed four or five calls there, he instructed the oper ator in Tucson and in Bisbee to try all the main dental offices in an ef fort to get nr vs of Lorena Hamil ton, then he vent back to Early .vinr’s general store. “I got to wait for some phone calk,” Y told that genial propri etor. v i!e I’m waiting you might ?i3h me up some things.” “Anything you want, young man. If I ain’t got it, I can go in to Tucson and get it. Earlywine’s strives to please.” “You going in anyhow? Pretty soon ?” “Yep. Tomorrer.” “All right. Here—l’ll just write out a list. Give me what you have in stock now, and get me wha* you have to. I’ll send or come in for it soon as I can. And Mr. Earlywine, I want the best quality money can buy.” “I’ll git it, young man.” The telephone calls elicited noth ing, so Jerry went back to his truck. He had the motor started, then he jumped out and ran back into the store. “Give me four, five boxes of pistol cartridges, Mr. Earlywine. I’ll take them now. Forty-fives.” “Here they are. I put yore other stuff In the truck. Some of it.” Jerry realized he had important news. He had been suspicious of events, with no very tangible rea son, since early yesterday morning, when Rogers and Lorena had failed to appear. But when somebody dis covered that no Brazee horses or vehicles were missing, Jerry had been first to act. He had told the newly alarmed Brazees that he would hurry into town and see if they were there. George Brazee had been prone to believe somebody had chanced to come out and get them. Maybe that was even planned, he had said. Sally didn’t believe it. This good woman felt that doom was strik ing again, doom for somebody. She almost had to go to bed with a case of nerves, crop report forecasting harvests of bountiful proportions. Furthermore, President Roosevelt heeded com plaints that sugar had become too costly in this country since the out break of war in Europe, and lifted legal limitations upon the quantity which may be sold in domestic mar kets this year.

The sales supervisor said today prices for the second day appeared to be holding their own as com pared to Monday’s opening levels. He said many farmers expressed the wish the market would remain open, since it had started so much higher than Eastern belts. However, he said, there will definitely be an indefinite suspension at the end of Wednesday’s sales clearing ware house floors of the opening day offerings. Full sales faced the buyers to day, and there was sufficient to bacco on hand to keep the double sales crews busy through most of the sales period tomorrow.

Cold is slow in penetrating the paper bag and such storage is an extravagant use of the refrigeration And, of course, Jerry could bring back no news that helped them. He made the trip back to the Phantom ranch almost as rapidly as he had driven away, and* he braked to a stop near the Brazee’s porch. A dozen or more people had heard his truck coming, and so were assembled to meet him. “She’s not there,” Jerry said at once. “Rogers neither. I tried Blanco. I phoned Douglas, Bisbee, Tucson, even. No trace of them. There’s something screwy.” Mrs. Brazee looked like she was about to cry. “They hadn't been seen?” George Brazee asked. “You inquired?” “Sure. Os course I did. I tell you, that Rogers has tricked her! Why in hell was that man permitted—” “Hold on. Nothing’ll come of hard talk now. It’s time to get a clear understanding. You say you—” “I say I looked everywhere pos sible, did all the inquiry I needed to. Rogers and Lorena never went by Blanco at all, or somebody would have seen them. It just checks what we learned here—that no horses or conveyances were missing. Something else has hap pened and I’d like to know what it is." Mr. Brazee looked grave indeed. He knew this was a crisis, an emergency now two days old, for the hour was supper time again. And yet—he was confused. “Shot Rogers is a dependable man,” he began. “I just can’t fig ure—” “Dependable, hell!” Jerry almost exploded it. Does it look that way? If running off with your own niece is what you call dependable—or probably worse—getting her kid naped or both of them killed—l say he’s a scum and—” “Nawp!” interrupted one ot Rogers’ scouts emphatically. *Tt’s men here what will still fight for Shot Rogers, Dale. Don’t you forget that!" “All I want to know Is where he is,” growled Jerry. “I want the pleasure of breaking his confound ed neck!” The muscular young man wan furious, face strained. He was lntr pressive in his anger, too. The as sembly looked at him, realizing that he conceivably was capable 6t doing exactly what he threatened, (To Be Continued). HENDERSON, (N. C.)
