Just P&oste Warga Hardware for Free Home Demonstration and Service on Any Make Washing Machine Ten Per Cent Cut in Cora is Planned for '35 Larger Acreage Crop Optional and Modifications and Simpler Rules Proposed. Secretary Henry Wallace of the; agricultural department of the gov ernment announced Sunday at Wash ington new plans for the crop con trol program for the year 1335, cov ering the corn-hog control plan. Midwestern farmers will be asked to keep corn acreage and hog num bers only 10 per cent below their 1932-1933 average production. The reductions compare with a 20 to 30 per cent cut in corn and 25 per cent cut in hog numbers required under the 1934 contract. The maximum corn acreage that the new contract signers may plant is 90 per cent of their average dur ing the 1932 and 1933 base period.! They may, however, make a 30 per cent cut in acreage, growing a mini mum of 70 per cent of the base period, and receive benefit payments for the additional 20 per cent reduc tion. To Permit Hew Surplus. The 90 per cent maximum, assum ing a return to normal weather con ditions, will permit the production of about 250 million bushels of corn in excess of estimated requirements for live stock feeding. This excess, if produced, will again be sealed under a continuation of the corn loan program in force this year and next, Wallace intimated. Only farmers who sign the acreage adjustment contract, however, will be eligible to receive loans on corn they store. The maximum of 90 per cent on iiogs will apply only to those pro duced for market from 1935 litters, with no limitation on purchases of feeder pig3 from other contract sign ers. Pigs purchased from r.on-sign-ers will be limited as before to the average number bought during the base period. Continue Process Tax. Total adjustment payments to farmers, it was estimated, will be be tween 150 million dollars and 165 million dollars in 1935. Funds for the payments will be raised by con tinuing the processing taxes of $2.25 per hundredweight on hogs and 5 cents per bushel cn corn through the year beginning November 5. 1935. Adjustment payments for corn re ductions will be made at the rate of 35 cents a bushel of yield estimated for the acres taken out of produc tion. Payments for 1934 were made at the rate of 30 cents a bushel. Different Hog Easis. The first payment of 15 cents a bushel will be made as soon as sign ers' contracts are approved. The re mainder, less the producers share of the local administrative expenses, will be paid on or about January 1, 1936. Hog payments will be at the rate of 515 a head for the number re duced. This compares with 55 a head for each hog raised under the 25 per cent reduction this year. Upon acceptance of the producer's hog contract he will receive $7.50 per head of the $15 due, getting the remainder about January 1, 1936. Wallace declared that because of the smaller percentage cf adjustment in hog numbers the total hog pay ments per farm would not be as high as during tho past year, but he add ed that the producer's total income, including his return from the in creased number cf hogs, would be larger. "Facing Real Test." Farmers who reduce corn acreage in 1935 will not be required to set aside a definite tract of land as "con tracted acres." as was required this year, and may rent to the govern ment any acreage with a corn his tory. This hange was made to sim plify compliance and to permit great-c- flexibility in farm operations, the secretary said. Br. A. G. Black, chief of the corn-h-gh section, said farmers face "thjpir first real tost of voluntary crop con trol" in considering the 1935 con tract. "A year ago, a surplus was at hand, prices were low, and the need for production control was obvious," he said. "This year, prices are im proved and the effect of a prospec tive surplus i3 not so apparent. Plans must now be based on the fu ture outlook, not on the situation at the moment. "Full success of the 1935 program will depend upon the voluntary co operation of a clear majority of producers." Fcur Reasons for Request. Black gave fcur reasons to justify the administration's request for 1935 reductions: 1. Acreage may increase in re sponse to feed shortages and high prices resulting from last season's drouth. 2. Forced liquidation and govern ment purchases of live stock have re duced corn needs for the coming year. 3. Drouth damage to pastures and new meadows will lead some farmers to plant them to corn next year. 4. Relative cheapness of seed corn will encourage larger crop plant ings. He added that existing demand conditions "do not yet warrant" a re-expansion of hog numbers. In the present control plan, acre age out of corn production had to re main idle, but under the new pro posal it may be used for other crops. This move is expected to rebuild for age supplies, as winter wheat has al ready been sown and spring wheat is under a tight AAA control, and feed crops are likely to be the chief ones planted. CHUD IN SERIOUS CONDITION Richard Elliott returned Monday evening from Columbus Junction, where he was called the last of the week because of an accident to his little son, Larry. The little lad with several other children were playing and while the mother was momen tarily out of the house Larry fell Into a bucket of boilg water, inflict ing very severe burns. The child has been under constant care since the accident and his condition is considered serious but it is hoped that he may be able to withstand the effects of the injury. It will be several days before the outcome of the case can be fully determined. CHARGED WITH INTOXICATION Saturday evening Deputy Sherifi Thomas Walling took into custody Hector Ealsader, a resident of the south part of the city, charging him with intoxication. The man was re ported to have been creating a dis turbance at a dance by quarreling with his wife and had pursued her to the street where she thought to elude the man by getting in their car. The attention of the deputy sheriff was attracted to the scene of action and as he attempted to secure the man, Balsader started his car and drove south. The deputy sheriff followed in hi3 car and overhauled the Balader car and placed the man under arrest. VISIT IN THE CITY Mr. and Mrs. Wesley Hermann, the latter formerly Miss Vyral Foss ler.

The scene of the crime was visited by the offi cers and from the tracks of the car that visited the place it would seem that it was the same party or parties that have been guilty of similar of fenses in this section of Cass county but have been able so far to keep from being discovered.
