The maximum reduction that may J be required under the 1935 cotton V contract is 23 per cent of the base acres, but the Agricultural AdjustB ment Administration will rent as "H much as 35 per cent of the base acres if the producer wishes to rent this amount. The allotment under the Bankhead Act for 1935 is 10.500,000 bales. This is an increase of 500,000 bales which is the amount that will be required to take care of the small producers. This means that the allotments for 1935 will be about the same as they were in 1934. In view of the above facts I think it will be wise for the cotton producers to rent the 35 per cent of the base acres instead of the 25 per cent. The tobacco allotments for 1935 have been mailed and the cotton allotments wnl be sent out in few davs or weeks. Littleton Man Is Injured In Accident Littleton. Jan. 23?A. R.

M. White, dis trict drainage engineer with the D S. Department of Public Healtl Service. This money is to be spen in draining ditches and removini other malaria hazzards, Mr. Whiti said. Around 80 men are already a work on projects in Norlina, Ridge way and Littleton, and it is expect ed that this number of helpers wil be doubled when work begins ii other parts of the county. The labo: on these projects comes from th< relief roll, Mr. White stated. The district engineer said thai he did not know how long the worl would last in Warren county bui expressed the opinion that shoulc it last five or six years every malari? hazzard in the county would b< removed. "Malaria has been increasing in this state, but where thi: drainage work has been done wt haven't had a single case," he said Once the ditches are cut, property owners are required to neep their open. Below is a list of the projects: ;Bullock Creek, between Drewrj and Palmer Springs, $1726.67. Hawtree township, below Cole'! bridge and running three miles $3333.33. Fishing Creek, from Manson ter miles down stream, $6533.33. Shocco Creek, two miles abovf Jerusalem church to point foui miles below church, $6533.33. Warrenton, to reshape and drair all ditches and swamps in or withir close proximity of town, $680. The projects also call for an expenditure of $400 for a county supervisor. Over 100 Loans Sought Through Production Ass'n By W. B. GOODING Secty-Treas. Henderson P. C. A. Over a hundred applications foi crop production loans, totaling mor< than $30,000.00, have been made b] Granville, Vance and Warren County farmers to date to the Hendersor Production Credit Association for th< year 1935. Although most farmers made money last year and are now ir much better shape financially, the navment of old debts has left manj without adequate funds for theu farming operations in 1935. It is th( purpose and aims of the Hendersor Production Credit Association U furnish such farmers the cheapest possible credit for the purchase o. fertilizer and supplies, as well a; other items actually needed in producing their crops. Farmers are putting in their applications early this season so thai they may be approved, but this does not mean that they will get theii money immediately upon approval When a farmer puts in his application he is required to state ai what time and for what the monej is to be used. This allows the Association to disburse the loans ai the time they are actually needed. Collections for the past year ar< practically 100 per cent complete and it has been necessary to turr only one account, out of the sever hundred and eighty-one farmer; * ? 4-V>a lorro served lasi year, over w me department for collection thus far Offices are being maintained ir Oxford, Henderson and Warrentor for the convenience of farmers ir making application in each of th< three counties served by the Association.

Health Officer Urges Reporting Of 1 Contagious Diseases \ By DR. G. H. MACON County Health Officer . For the benefit of the public I ; deem it my duty as Health Officer oi warren county to miorm citizens j in regard to matters pertaining to x the public health laws of North Carolina. The health laws of the state are j strick and plainly state that the following diseases must be reported 5 promptly by the head of the family to your family physician, school teacher or county health officer: i measles, diphtheria, typhoid fever, scarlet fever, small-pox, chicken; pox, whooping-cough, German r measles, meningitis, infantile paralysis, and septic sore throat. i I have recently received from the i state department of health rather stringent rules of procedure for those . who willfully and persistently violate . the health laws of North Carolina. In the reportable diseases enumerated above I urge that you contact your family physician and he will advise you the proper method of procedure, for so many untimely and unnecessary deaths in later life are ' directly due to not giving proper consideration to these diseases. r County Council Of P.

Mrs. 5 Walker urged closer co-operation between the local units and the District, State and National organi zations. t Following these addresses the > County organization, with the larg" est attendance of the year, repre* senting the entire County, en thusiastically endorsed the State t Parent-Teacher Platform for 1934'; 35. urging 25 per cent increase in teachers' salaries, and a minimum t budget of $22,000,000 for schools.

Daily of Middleburg and Rev. O. I. Hinson of Warrenton, Methodist ministers, and Rev. Kennison of the Presbyterian church conducted the services. In the death of Mr. Burwell the Townsville community lost one of its best beloved and most esteemed citizens. Although suffering for some weeks from a severe heart trouble, his death came as a distinct shock to his family and friends.

The appropraition is double what it was last year and permits the spending of $1,000,000 for feed and livestock in drought and stormstricken areas. Chairman Smith of the Agriculture committee, author of the bill, said the increase in the appropria tion was due to the higher cost of seed and fertilizer. A strong plea was made in the House by Congressman John H. Kerr ? for the passage of the bill, according to the following which was taken from Monday's Congressional Record: "Mr. Speaker, I indulge the hope that this Congress will unanimously pass this measure. I represent one cf r the great agricultural districts of t this Nation, and I know how essential these loans have been to the t people in my district and in my r State. This is the only way we have s been able to take care of the small r farmer who for 5 years has had no b other possible way of getting capital c to continue his business and take care of his family. The merit of J this loan and objection to same has been time and again discussed before this House, and the objection to the passage of this bill today is without merit; it is purely political f in its nature and should have no s place in the discussion of a meas- c ure so vital to the welfare of the ? American farmer. "These loans have been most sue- t cessful in North Carolina, and I c am pleased to say to the CongTess \today that my State has paid back e about 99 percent of the loans that i have been made there. Our farmers c want them again. It makes them c feel secure. They do not have to g go and beg people or banks for money to make their crops to take t care of their families. They feel they * can go to the Government and on c easy terms obtain money, and they r have heretofore been fortunate c enough to pay back these loans. These loans have stimulated the pride of the American farmer and done much to convince him of the honest endeavor of Congress to help g him as he struggles to bring back prosrerity to this country. 1 "I know of no privilege or no 1 power extended to the farmer in this ' country that has aided him or help- c ed him more than these crop loans 0 and the other loans described in this e bill. "I hope the Congress will unan- t imously extend this right to the poor t small farmer, who is the real farmer ii that produces a large percent of the a wealth of this Nation, in order that hp mav acain eret this loan and take h care of his crop and of his industry." s t Accident Proves ? Fatal To Duke r f, Funeral services were held Sun- s day afternoon at 3 o'clock from n Sulphur Springs Baptist Church at Elberon for James H. Duke, who died c Friday evening at Maria Parham n Hospital, Henderson, as the result p of injuries he sustained earlier in e the week when the truck he was operating overturned, breaking his 1 tvrist and crushing his leg. Immediately following the accident Mr. Duke was carried to the hospital where the broken bone in his wrist was set and his leg and c inkle treated. Complications set in c and his leg was amputation on c rhursday morning. He was 40 years 0 old at the time of his death on Fri- e' day evening. N The services were in charge of y Rev. R. R.

Sales have been light here since he market opened after the Christaas holidays, and it is the conensus of opinion among tobaccolists and farmers that practically ,11 of the crop has been disposed >f. State Ideal For Poultry Production North Carolina is well adapted or poultry production on a large cale, says Roy S. Dearstyne, head f the poultry department at N. C. itate College. The climate is conducive to poulry and the soils produce economially the basic teed such as corn, .'heat, oats, and barley. The fishries on the coast supply an abundince of fish meal ana menhaden til. The well developed milling inlustry .s another advantage, he ays. Another important factor is the tearness to markets, he points out. The State itself is a large consumer f poultry products and the large aetropolitan markets are within an ivernight haul. But the industry will not thrive, te adds, unless poultrymen follow he methods of scientific and proressive poultry raising. One of the most important fac ors is that of breeding, he says, tmong the important characterisics transmitted from parent to ffspring are egg size, persistancy f production, early feathering, and arly maturity. Good breeding is not an accident, ut the result of careful studies of he flock, trap-nesting, record keepig, pedigreeing, and careful mangement. There is a shortage of superior atching eggs, Dearstyne says, and mall flock owners have an opporunity to market all the eggs they an produce from high grade birds, f the flock is inferior, Dearstyne ecommends that all eggs be sold j or food purposes and chicks from! uperior eggs be used in starting) iext year's flock.

MOST OF THE NEWS ALL THE TIME g&ttk === : ^ a NUMBER 4 LEGION TO HOIF BONUS RALLY A. O. Dickens of Wilson /aid H. E. White of Henderson To Speak JANUARY 29TH IS DATE All former service men, members of the Legion Auxiliary and other interested citizens are askec by W. F. Alston. Commander of Limer Post, to meet in the court house on Tuesday night, January 29, at 7:30 o'clock for a "Bonus Night" meeting of the American Legion. A. O. Dickens of Wilson and H, E. White of Henderson will deliver speeches here, Mr. Alston said, and through the means of a rad.o those in the court house will be; able to hear the address of Hubert E. Oliver, state commander. Mr. Oliver Is to speak in regard to the progress being made by the Legion with re- ? ference to the Legions legislative program in general and uj>on the immediate payment of the adjusted service certificates in particular. Commander Oliver's address will start promptly at 7:45 o'clock from station WPTF, Raleigh and last fifteen minutes. Simultaneously with the meeting here, meetings are to be held in every community where a Legion Post is located, Mr. Alston said. It was estimated that there would be around 150 meetings on this occasions. In announcing plans for the meeting, the Legion News, official publication of the American Legion, states: "The purpose of 151 Mass Meetings being held in North Carolina simultaneously at 7 30 P. M., on January 29, is for the I-egion in North Carolina to better determine just what the former service men who have not yet affiliated themselves with the Legion want done with reference to the matter of the legislation, endorsed by the Legion for the immoriiab nnvmonfr. nf t.hp Ad lusted Service Certificates. The Legion wants to know just how strong the sentiment of the veterans "on the outside" of the Legion is in favor of such legislation. Every local Post, and the State organization of the Legion seeks the active cooperation of all veterans in this matter, and the Legion wants to know if these eligible veterans who are not in the Legion are really in favor of the Legion's legislative program, and if so wnai iney miena 10 ao aoout iu to help speed up the passage of this legislation." Balanced Diet Is Health Insurance Planning the family food supply according to the nutrition needs of the human body is the best kind of health insurance, says Miss Mary E.Thomas, nutritionist at State College. There are six essential food groups which must be included in the diet to build strong bodies and keep them in good health, she says. The six groups; are: Milk; lean meats, eggs, and fish; butter and other fats; vegetables and. fruits, grain products;, sugar and. other sweets. It may not be convenient to pre pare the diet so that all these groups are included in the meals for each day, she said, but the diet should be so balanced that the necessary amounts of each food will be prepared each week. To guide the housewife in preparing her meals, the college extension service has prepared a food chart showing the needs of the family. These charts and other suggestions regarding a healthful diet may be obtained from the home demonstration agents in the different counties. Early In the year is the time to start planning the food budget, Miss Thomas said, so that the gardening program will be adequate to [the needs of the family and the necessary amount of poultry products, meat, mill: and other things can be raised. Any farm famdy, she added, can raise at home the foods needed to * * 1 1? 1 ? 3 I li.1. Keep a nuinan uuuy ui guuu ueaiui.
