Crop Statistics
Agricultural Census Show a Heavy
Shift of Lands to Cattle and
Food Crops.
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.

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.

Who Gives Notice.
This election to fill a vacancy is to

the governor has received notice of a
vacancy and he ia turn has notified

empowered, "while the legislature is
in session," to appoint to fill the va
cancy.
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.
