KERR IS DUE TO
SHARE IN CREDIT
Congressman Aids In Effort
To Have County Included
In Drought Area
SETS FORTH ACTIVITIES
Congressman John H. Kerr is due
a share in the credit of having
Warren County included in the
drought area to receive Federal aid,
it was learped yesterday in a letter
to this newspaper from Howard F.
Jones Sr., secretary to Congressman
Kerr.
In the news story carried in this
paper in its issue of January 30,
the work of a number of citizens I
was set forth. No mention of Congressman
Kerr was made. It is be-1
lived that this omission was made
because the local committee did not
know of the work of Judge Kenthrough
his Washington connections.
What this work consisted of
is set forth in the following ienci
from Mr. Jones:
"With no cLesire to take credit
from any citizen of Warren County
who participated in the effort to
get Warren county included in the
drougth area, I feel that in justice
to Congressman Kerr that he
should, at least, share in the honor.
"On January 14th Colonel Claude
McGhee of Franklinton expressed
his appreciation of courtesies shown
by Congressman Kerr in accom- j
panying a delegation of Franklin
county included (with Warren and
Vance) in the drougth area.
"On January 10 in a reply to Mr.
James H. Brodie of Henderson as
to Vance being included he wrote
of the condition in Warren and its
inclusion in the drougth area.
"On January 19th following up
his personal interview with Dr.
Warburton (in charge of drougth I
relief) he spoke of the condition in:
Warren in part as follows: 'I have )
just returned from my home County |
(Warren), and I find that the condition
there is such that we will
need help from both the seed and
food fund, and such additional
funds as the Red Cress may bestow.
This condition also applies to ad\Tanna
nnrl I
joining ouuunco ui ??
Franklin on the West, and Northhampton
on the East. Warren
County adjoins the Virginia line,
and Virginia suffered terribly in
the drougth. In formulating the
plans for aid to our farmers I hcpe
that the Counties I mention will
have your sympathetic consideration?for
conditions are bad. No
money, little feed and no way to
make a crop.
By insistance and showing that
certain sections of Halifax and
Northampton were truly sufferers!
from drougth conditions in certain
areac, Congressman Kerr received
assurance that the Western parts of
Halifax and Northampton would be
included. J
"As I said, this communication
is not called forth in criticism of
any of the valuable assistance
given in this humanitarian work by
citizens of the affected Counties,
but simply because in the issue of
The Record of January 30th you
state that its inclusion was brought
about by the action of the local
Committee of the County. We are
firmly of the opinion, knowing the
insistance of Congressman Kerr
that this be done, that Honor to
whom honor is due' should at least,
be shared by him.

stock, fuel and oil for the tractor,
and dusting and spraying material
for the protection of the crop after
it has been made. Loans for seed,
he said, will be based on the approximate
cost of seed required per
acre, but in no case will exceed $2
an acre for corn, wheat, oats and
tobacco, and $5 on other crops except
truck crops for which the maximum
will be $25 an acre. Loans
for fertilizer will be at about $5 an
acre except for tobacco and truck '
crops when it will be $10.
Can't Barter for Gasoline
It was pointed out to Dr. Warburton
that good tobacco fertilizer
could hardly be secured for $10 an
acre, and he stated that some leeway
would have to be allowed for
that crop. He declared that the
money would not have to be spent
positively as designated in the regulation,
but had to be spent for the
purposes specified. In other words
a person might save some out of
his seed or feed bill and use it on
his fertilizer bill. He made it clear,
however, that no one could buy
fertilizer with government money
and swap the fertilizer for gasoline
for the automobile. The penalty
for misuse of the money is a fine
of $1,000, or six months imprisonment
or both. Then, too, a report
' must be made as to how each instnllmont.

is spent. If spend improperly, no
more funds will be advanced.
April 30 Final Limit
Applications for the loans must
be mailed in time to be received by
the designated representative of the
Department of Agriculture at the
Farmers' Seed Loan Office, Washington,
D. C? not later than April
30. The director declared that North
Carolina was in much better condi

Find That Most Soils
Are In Need of Lime
For fifteen years Cornell Experiment
Station at Ithaca, N. Y., has
been conducting an experiment designed
to divulge more about what i
goes on in the soil. One of the main
objects of the experiment is to determine
how much lime (calcium
and magnesium) is lost in the
drainage water. The experiment is
being carried cn with a battery of
12 lysimeters filled with a silty clay
loan soil. (A lysimeter is a sunken
cylindrical tank open at the top and
with a funnel-shaped bottom, designed
so that all the drainage
water which seeps down through
the soil is caught in a receptacle.)
Different crop rotations are employed
and a few of the lysimeters
have been left bare, without any
crop.
It has been found by analyzing
the drainage water that of all plant
food elements lost by leaching, lime
suffers the greatest loss. These experiments
also show that implanted
soils lose more lime through leaching
than when cropped. During
the fifteen years of the experiment,
the average annual loss of calcium
acre was as follows:
Planted soil 224.5 pounds.
Bare soil 368.8 pounds.
At this rate of loss it is not dif
ficult to understand why over 701
per cent of the tilled land in the (
United State is acid and requires 5

limestone, 450 pounds of hydrated

Fortunately, the liming material j
need not be applied annually. If,
application is mad.a every three to
five years in amount large enough
to replace the loss through crop- !
ping and leaching, the acidity of !
the soil will be controlled so that
best results are obtained.

The records show that 1,566 books
were taken from the library for
home reading during the month of
January. The average daily circulation
for the first week of Feb-:1
ruary was 65. The library presents'
a very interesting appearance in

Noting their interest and th? scope

other than withdrawing appropriations
