Washington. Wheat, restricted In the chief production areas by the farm program, was shown by the agricultural census to be spreading into new territory. Figures based on complete tabulations for over half the nation showed many farmers in non commercial wheat sections here turn ing new lands Into the production of grain. The censiis reports showed a heavy shirt of lands to cattle and food crops in recent years, with potatoes leading the way.- The AAA has said that in general there was no relation be tween the Increase in potato acreage and the acres taken out of produc tion by Its adjustment programs. . . There . were fewer horses and mules, however,, in most all states, even tho the nation as a whole had &00.000 new farms and 69,000.000 more acres under plow. Experts said the shift to food crops and cattle was largely explained by the hosts of former city workers who had taken small tracts of land in suburban areas and were endeavoring to grow their own food. . In most cases, they said, the first thing the new farmers bought was a sow. ilk and a few acres of potatoes helped tide these amateur farmers over the depression, they said, but the home productio nof these neces sitias also cut down the potential market of the professional farmer. In the cotton growing states, the figures showed a strong shift to food crops. Alabama planted 1,400,000 fewer acres of cotton in 1934 than in 1029. but it had half a million more cattle, a million acres more in corn, 8,000 more acres in wheat, 12,000 more acres in Irish potatoes and 40,- 000 more acres in sweet potatoes. In the western wheat states, drouth complicated the picture. Kansas had two million more acres in farms than in 1930, but harvested 7,645,000 few er. Four million fewer acres of wheat were harvested in Kansas in 1934 than in 1929, and 3,500,000 fewer of corn. Governor Cochran's Mail Ouen Any Who May Feel Disquali fied to Serve. to WON MAIL VOTE PRIZE ON THE TOWN HALL PE0GEAM DEATH OF JOE McCARTHY From Wednesday's Dally The death of Joseph McCarthy, 60, for many years a resident of this city. occurred unexpectedly Tuesday night at Aurora. Illinois, where he has Of the original two house legisla ture which Governor Cochran will call in special session within one month, three members are deceased, one is serving a prison term and an unknown number have apparently disqualified themselves by Joining what is known as the federal brigade, and some are too ill to attend. With a dozen or more prospective vacancies to be filled, many on first thought remarked that Governor Cochran ought to have little trouble in getting a membership easy to get made his home in recent years. Mr. McCarthy was born February along with, since he has the appoin- 1. 1875. and when a child came west tlve power, to this city and where he entered the employ of the Burlington in the local shops, being in the brass foun dry and where he was engaged until the removal of the foundry to Have- lock and later to Aurora, Illinois, and where he ha3 since resided. He is survived by two sons and four daugh ters. The Sattler funeral home was noti on second thought those who in quire Into the legal method of filling vacancies in the legislature find that the governor apparently has no choice. He must appoint those chosen by county committees or refuse to ap point. The law states that county committees "elect successors" to fill vacancies in the legislature, and the governor shall thereafter, while the fied of the death early this afternoon legislature i3 in session, appoint "in and who will have charge of the ser vices. REJOICE IN NEW SON A fine nine and a half pound son was born Tuesday to Mr. and Mrs Ernest Hild of west of Mvnard. The young man is a fine speciman of bent belonged. So the governor has young America and with the mother nothing to say about who shall sue- accordance therewith" and transmit the same to the secretary of state who shall certify the name or names to the proper house where the vacan cies shall have occurred. And the successor to the vacancy is "elected" by the party committee of the same party to which the previous incum Listeners-in on "Town Hall" pro gram last night were pleased to hear the announcement made by Fred Al leu at the close of the program of last week's mail vote winner, being none other than Duane Harmon, the Cass county boy, who appeared on the previous week's program, but failed 10 piace in tne studio winners, who are chosen according to the volume of applause from the audience. The op portunity of having friends present in large numbers at the broadcast gives an advantage to performers living in or near New York, while the per former from- distant points faces stiff proposition so far as getting the applause of studio fans is concerned However, there, is a method of even ing up, by alloting a separate prize on the mail vote. On Town Hall this prize amounts to $75 cash, and was won by young Harmon as a result of his large mail vote pouring in from all parts of the country. Cass county friends contributed a goodly number of these votes, but no more than any other community hav ing a contestant on the program, and the winning was due solely to pref erance for Harmon's number by the majority of Town Hall listeners-in all over the country.. We congratulate Duane on his fine showing and trust he may yet receive opportunity of appearing on the Ma jor Bowes amateur hour broadcast on Sundays. NIGHT CLUB MAN ARRESTED ceed to a vacancy in the legislature nor his political affiliation. Who Gives Notice. This election to fill a vacancy is to take place in party committees after the governor has received notice of a vacancy and he ia turn has notified the proper party committee. It shall be done by committee or committees when a district contains two or more rmintifts within fiv rinva nftr nntico city over the week end, 'a guest of , . ' . I from the governor, or the governor is is doing nicely. It is needless to say that the event has brought reat hap piness to the father as well as the two brothers and sister of the new arrival.

Just how .the governor Is to' re ceive notice that a vacancy has oc curred is left by the law to Imagin ation. The governor cannot pick va cancies out of the air. The constitu tlon provides how vacancies occur. but not how the governor shall recog nize one when, it iccurs. Vacancies occur in public office, says the constitution, by reason of death, removal from the state, or in case of legislators, from the district, also by resignation, conviction of a felony, Impeachment or "becoming of unsound mind." Vacancies and eligibility to hold a seat in the legislature may be two different things. The eligibility Is passed upon by the legislature when it convenes and passes upon creden tials. The constitution says one elect ed to the legislature shall be an elec tor and must have lived In his dis trict one year when elected. Another section says one elected or appointed to the legislature shall not receive any appointment to a "state office" during his term, but It does not say he loses his seat in the legislature but that the appointment to state of fice is void. Another section of the constitu tion says no person holding "office" under the authority of the Unted States or any "lucrative" office un der authority of the senate shall be eligible" to or have a seat in the legislature. Certain small offices may be held, such as precinct or town ship office, Justice of the peace, no taries public and offices In the militia. Question of Authority. But neither the governor nor any political committee is authorized to see that persons holding such pro hibited offices are ousted from a seat after the mmber has been admitted and 'sworn in as all members were when they took the oath of office. Nor is any one given authority to say that a legislator who holds a Job in one of the federal alphabetical departments is holding "office" under authority of the United States. It has been pointed out by the courts and others that perhaps some of the al phabetical departments are not really a part of the United States govern ment.
