Farmers in other parts of the Unit ed States who normally plant a larger percentage of their farm acre age in soil improving crops than do J farmers of North Carolina will like ly share to a greater extent in the proceeds of the farm program if North Carolina farmers do not act at once to comply with the new pro gram. This is the opinion of E. Y. Floyd, tobacco specialist at State College, who says that North Carolina farm ers may offset this seeming advant age of other sections by replacin" cash crops such as tobacco, cotton and peanuts with soil improving crops. There is still some doubt in the mind of many farmers as to how to proceed to cooperate. The first ♦hing to do, Floyd says, is to fill out a work sheet in which is listed the I acreage of all crops grown on the i farm in 1935, the acreage of each ' and other information about the j farm. The second sdeiP is to work ( with the community committee t* | determine the soil-depleting base O’ leach farm. Then soil-conservin’ j crops must be grown on a part o’ this soil-depleting base. Four’h, soi’ .building practices must be followed to earn the class 11 payments. As a fifth step, the farmer make a formal application for payment for what he has done, and finally PEP'* .N COUNTY TIMES ROXBORO, N. C.

Floyd points out that only one payment will be made under the new program and this will include both oil-conserving and soil building .ayments. This payment will be ade as promptly as possible after conditions have been met by the) farmer. Since May 31 has been set as the last date for county agents to receive work sheets, Floyd urges prompt action in taking this first step towards cooperation with the program. POU WINS PRAISE IN AUDITOR’S RACE Minister Pays High Tribute In Re cent Letter. One of the finest tributes paid any candidate for State Office was paid Geo. Ross Pou of Raleigh and Smith field, by a minister who has known him since his boyhood. The tribute was in the form of a letter written by the Rev. E. D. Dodd of Ci*eed moor, pastor of the Methodist church there, and the letter was ad dressed to Mr. W. S. Penn of Clay ton, Mr. Penn being one of the Pou supporters. Rev. Dodd says: “I have received with profound pleasure the announcement of Geo. Ross Pou’s candidacy for the office of State Auditor. You may be sure that I shall welcorrfq the opportuni ty of voting for him, and rendering him the very heartiest support pos- j sible for me under the circumstanc es. Being myself a native of Johnston County, I have watched with par ticular pride George’s development into sturdy manhood. First, as a very young man, he evinced the keenest interest in the civic, edu cational, and spiritual betterment of his home community. Everyone [looked to him as a logical leader in any forward-looking movement. His was an unwavering love for, and service to, his people. I recall his volunteering for servide in the World War, although married. I can assure you that I know of no man in public life today more fitted in every respect to serve our neople as State Auditor than Geo. Ross Pou. Our State can ill afford to be without his unselfish services at this time.” MANY ACCIDENTS DON’T HAPPEN Are Caused by Improper Lubrica tion or Lack of Lubrication. In a recent interview, H. P. Ho bart, General Manager of Gulf’s Lu bricating Sales Department, used a report of the Pennsylvania Depart ment of Revenue to substantiate his belief that many accidents are caus ed by improper lubrication or by the lack of lubrication.

The con dition of drivers in approximately 40 per cent of the accidents was ap parently normal.
