T. Drug Co. SPARTA, N. C. Washington News For U. S. Farmers From Timm Washington Bureau MAY BUY SURPLUS LAND Having paid' out something like a small fortune in its land-rental policy the A. A. A. is now de termined to get away from rent ing farm lands and moving to ward the purchase of submarginal acres. Although two million acres have been purchased this is hard ly a beginning in the retirement of 50,000,000 acres, deemed nec essary to put agriculture on a sound basis. Moreover, if only the poorer types of 1/ind are ac quired it will probably be neces sary to retire at least one hun dred million acres. It is reported that efforts will be made to divide the agricultural areas into sections, within which local authorities will be able to cooperate effectively in bringing about adjustments that will en courage the best utilization of the farmer’s resources. Land taken out of cultivation will be converted into parks, for ests and wild-fire refuses. Rural rehabilitation plans will be link ed with the program designed to provide the maximum farm in come over a period of years. FOOD PRICES RISING \ Rising food prices, it is said, are causing complaint on the part of consumers and concern lest American housewives turn against the crop control programs- Cer tainly, food prices have gone up ward as farm commodities have moved toward the sought-after parity. Just exactly where prices stand is hard to determine although the evidence indicates that there has been a pronounced advance since the spring of 1933, when the of ficial index of prices for farm commodities stood at 68 in terms of the 1909-14 average. Latest index is 107, which does not mean parity because other prices have also gone up although 86 per cent of parity is considered at tained. WHAT ABOUT “PARITY" Of course, all credit does n-ot belong to any one measure. Pric es naturally moved upward from “panic” level. There has been an increased demand because of a gain in industrial purchasing power and the shortage of crops has had a big part in the ac complishment. On the other side of the picture one should realize that parity does not mean the end of prob lems, which seem to rise from new conditions. These include increased foreign competition in world markets, the limitation of the “right” to plant certain crops, like cotton, to those who have grown it in the past and the dan ger that farmers, once accustom ed to the “bounty” system will not be willing to see it abandon ed. CROP CONTROL CONTINUES The law creating the AAA re mains in force until the President “finds and proclaims that the na tional economic emergency in re lation to agriculture has. been ended.” The policy of Congress is declared to be “to establish and maintain” a balance between sup ply and demand of basic farm commodities so that these prod ucts will buy as much in terms of industrial goods, as they bought DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. . . .

The imposition of processing taxes is authorized to yield sums to make up the' difference be tween these figures and the aban donment of such levies is contem plated when the goal has been at tained. Already there is talk of aban doning control over some prod ucts, with the elimination of ren tal and benefit payments, which would mean the end of reduction of crops, since few people be lieve that farmers would restrict acreage without receiving com pensation in this form. If control is thus abandoned one may expect increased pro duction, with new surpluses creat ed. Thus it will only be a ques tion of how long before some control methods may be relaxed. It should be added, however, that there is no indication that control of any crop is to be drop ped. In fact, latest statements of officials positively assert that present control will be continued.

D. _ 'CANKER SORES Seldom a week goes by that 1 am not appealed to by people with the well-known “Canker sores”—small ulcers of stoma titis. They occur anywhere with in the buccal cavity—usually may be seen inside the mouth, on the walls that touch the outer sur-' faces, of the teeth. No descrip tion necessary—but they occur from site of a , pin-head up to large as a penny; never exactly circular, unless when very small. They are whitish, covered with mucous—nature doing all she can to repair. We are asked to “touch ’em up with caustic,” which is the usual procedure. This doesn’t cure the condition causing them—it just gives us a stall for time, until the digestive tract rights itself, I think. The other day a young drug gist came into my office; he had a distressing case; couldn’t eat anything very salty, very tart, very cold or very hot. Maybe you have been that way. I “touched ’em up” with 20% nitrate of silver solution. I told him as I 'fiave just told you—it was treating the symptom instead of the simple ailment. “You’ve got plenty of 'citro-carbonate’ in the store, haven’t you?” I asked. '‘Sure,” he answered. “Then take three or four doses a day. between meals and at bedtime,” was my direction. The patches disappear ed within three days. The effer vescing, alkaline mixture was easy to take, and, with brief direc tions as to too much greasy food; the cure was neither diffi cult nor unpleasant. Now had my patient been a farm boy—several miles away I from the drug store—it would | have been different. I might! have told him to buy a quarter’s i worth of Cream Tartar—and take I a heaped teaspoonful in a glass | of water, two or three time* a day.
