Thousands of Nebraska farm and
town women have started celebrat
ing the close of their project club
year by holding county achievement
programs which will continue for six
weeks. The 1935-36 year has been
one of the most successful ever spon
sored for rural women by the college
of agriculture extension service.
MIps Mary-Ellen Brown, in charge
of the home demonstration project
work in Nebraska, says more than
26,000 women enrolled last fall.
Thousands more are expected to at
tend the achievement day3.
Each program includes a panel dis
cussion centered around, "What
makes a good day for the farm fam
ily." This is a new method of pre
senting interesting information and
is rapidly becoming popular thruout
the country. There are to be no for
mal speeches, but free discussion be
tween members of the panel.
Speakers on each panel will in
clude a grandmother, a mother with
boys and girls in high school, who
will present some of the present day
problems the young mother with
children, bringing up questions on
how to find time to do all the things
necessary and yet establish a good
family relationship, a father who will
explain what starts the day off right
for him. Other viewpoints will be
presented by a farm boy and a coun
ty agricultural agent.
An exhibit is also planned for
achievement days. Community sing
ing will open each program. A report
of the "Leap Year" committee to
gether with resognition of leadership,
is on the program.

ALLAN COLLAPSES, DIES
Omaha. James Allan, Ralston,
died of a cerebral hemorrhage less
than an hour after he collapsed at a
political rally over which he was
presiding.
Air. Allan, owner and president of
the Allan Ice Machine company of
South Omaha, was seated at the front
of the town hall conversing with
two close friends. They were await
ing Congressman McLaughlin, sched
uled to speak before the 200 people
who had gathered for the meeting of
the Ralston McLaughlin club.
Taken to his home in the Lake
wcod club grounds, Mr. Allan died
a short time after a physician ar
rived. McLaughlin, who reached the
hall later, expressed deep regret at
the death of his close friend, and
greatly shortened his political com
ment. Mr. Allen is survived by his wife
and two sisters. A member of Tan
gier temple of the Shrine and of Ro
tary, he was a well known figure
here, having spent 30 years in business.

being despoiled, while huge sur-loo , iko , ,
plusses of wheat and corn rot In ele
vators and on farms, and farm in
come threatens to return to the de
gression level.
! Back of it all lies the decision of
'the supreme court barring the federal
government from entering into con
tract with the individual farmers on
I crop control. The only alternative
jto the conditions of 1932 Is the
problematic voluntary co-operation of
the farmers with the new soil con
servation and crop allotment plan.
To clearly understand what prob
lems face the federal and state gov
ernments, it is necessary to examine
the records of farm production since
1932. In that year farm income fell
to $5,000,000, 000, the lowest depres
sion point. Huge farm crop, sur
pluses piled up when national farm
income declined. In 1933 the AAA
was enacted, giving the federal farm
authorities power to negotiate with
the individual farmers. In simplest
terms the AAA involved the payment
to the farmers of millions of dollars
to compensate them for loss of in
come from acreage on which they
did not raise crops. In other words
the farmer was paid to reduce his
farm production of certain basic
commodities. The idea was to regu
late supply to demand.
Farm Income on Increase
The effect of this plan is shown in
the figures on farm incomes for 1933
and 1934. In 1933, the value of farm
products had increased to $5,985,-
operation
measures.
with soil conservation
Soil Conservation Urged.
The soil conservation act offers the
farmers $470,000,000 for turning
back 30,000,000 acres of farm lands
to soil-building crops. Since most
of the basic commodity crops, such
as grains, tobacco and cotton are soil
depleting, it is the hope of those who
framed the act that by benefit pay
ments the farmers will be switched
from overproduction of these soil
depleting crops to crops that will en
rich the top soil of this vast acreage.
But, unlike the AAA, the conser
vation act leaves a loophole through
which the farmer can evade the issue
and still collect his benefit. He can
continue to plant as many acres as
he pleases to soi-depleting crops, but
at the same time reduce acreage
which he now has planted in other
than basic crops. For instance, in
stead of cutting down his acreage in
wheat from 1,000 acres to 850 acres,
the farmer who owns other acreage,
say in flax or rye, or barley, can re
duce this latter the required 15 per
cent.
Federal authorities fear that this
may be the farmer's choice in 1936.
If this should happen, it would
mean $500,000,000 thrown to the
winds, but'to the 32,779,000 persons
engaged in agricultural pursuits, It
would mean a slump in Income, huge
crop surpluses and the privations of
1932 back again. i
