Cotton Payment Basis Is Changed
By New Contract
With the design of simplifying op
eration of the cotton program the
new four-year cotton adjustment
contract provides for a single pay
ment to co-operating producers ir.
1936. Heretofore there have been
threes separate payments.
The single payment will be not less
than 5 cents per pound on the aver
age yield of lint cotton on the land
withheld from production under the
contract for 1936 according to an
announcement by the Division of
Cotton of the Agricultural Adjust
ment Administration. The average
payment would approximate $8.60
per acre, virtually the amount which
was paid in 1935 and slightly more
than was paid in 1934. The pay
ment is to be made as soon as prac
ticable after compliance with the
terms of the contrac has been de
termined, and checking of com
pliance is to be sstarted as soon as
he plantng season is over in any
county.
In normal cases, payments will be
made directly to the persons entitled
to share in the crop or its proceeds.
The following basis has been fixed
for the division of payments between
landlords and all tenant or share
croppers on a farm under contract -
37 Mi per cent of the payment is to
the person furnishing the land; 12 Vs
percent to person furnishing the worn
stock and equipment, and the re
maining 50 per cent is to be divide 1
between the landlord and tenant in
the proportion that the cotton or its
; roceeds is divided.
The rate and manner of pay
inent applies to the 1936 cotton con
tract and program. The rate and
manner for 1937 and the succeeding
contract years will be determined by
the Secretary of Agriculture on the
basis of conditions at the time that
future contracts are drafted, anad
announced not later than November
.15, of the preceding year.
Previous to this contract that cot
ton producers will be offered for
1936, rental payments have been
How Calotabs Help Nature •
To Throw Off a Bad Cold
Millions have found in Calotabs a
most valuable aid in the treatment
of colds. They take one or two tab
lets the first night and repeat the
third 01 fifth night if needed.
lluw do Calotabs help Nature
throw oft a cold? First, Calotabs is
one oi the most thorough and de
pendable of all intestinal eliminants,
thus cleansing the intestinal tract of
the germ-laden mucus and toanes,
MEAT CURING
Weare now ready for the meat
curing season. Rate 2 cents per
pound.
At the present high price of

chances on the weather. Bring
your meat to the curing house
and be sure it is safe.
We appreciate your business
and have improved our service

made in two installments. The first
was made in the spring and the sec
ond after compliance had been de
termined. Later, a parity payment
Mas made after most of the cotton
crop had been gathered.
The rental payment was based on
the average yield of the land taken
cut of production; it amounted to
3% cents per pound of lint for the
1935 crop. The parity payment,
based upon a producer’s average
pioduction for domestic consumption,
which amounted to approximately 40
per cent, during the base period was
IVi cents per pound for 1935.
In addition to simplifying the op
eration of the program, economies
will be effected in operating costs
and in time, officials point out.
Winter Care of The Dairy Herd
The dairy herd requires more at
tention in the winter months and will
t ay dividends just about in the pro
portion that they receive good feeu
and care. During cold weather
more feed is required to maintain
body warmth and keeping the pro
ducing . cows in good flesh. Some
if the most important points in win
ter care are:
1. Keep the cows comfortable in
very cold or stormy or wet weather.
2. Have a shelter that is dry and
free from drafts where the cows may
stay at night and eat roughage. A
rack full of good oat straw will make
them happy if lepedeza, soy bear.-
cr peavine hay is not available.
3. Remember that there is noth
ing of value to eat in the permanent
pasture and when the herd is out
there walking about it is very likely
to injure the pasture and lower the
milk production. Many tons of ma
nure can be saved in the winter i f
the cattle are in the feeding shed or
Jot most of the time.
4. A home-grown grain mixture
of 4 parts corn and cob meal; 3 parts
cottonseed meal; 2 parts crushed
oats; 1 part wheat bran is recom
mended with variations to suit local
prices and conditions. Peanut meal
is comparable to cottonseed meal
Second, Calotabs are diuretic to the
i kidneys, promoting the elimination
of cold poisons from the system. Thus
i Calotabs serve the double purpose of
a purgative and diuretic, both of
which are needed in the treatment
of colds.
Calotabs are quite economical;
only twenty-five cents for the family
package, ten cents for the trial
package, (Adv.)

the price is about the same.
5. Ample roughage is needed in
winter. Good legume hay and sil
age is best but when not available
use straw —oat, rye and wheat straw,
shucks or anything available. Off
grade sweet potatoes, and other root
crops that have little market value
are excellent for the milking herd.
'They should be fed after milking to
prevent feed odors in the milk.
6. Give thejgrowing heifers a
l
square deal in winter. They need
good roughage. Watch for signs of
stomach worms and treat them
promptly when necessary. Ask youi
county agent or a veterinarian to
give you the worm remedy formula.
7. Lice on cattle canbe controlled
by rubbing them all over with a cloth
saturated with raw linseed oil. Be
sure the neck especially is thorough
ly greased. Make a second appli
cation in about two weeks. Watch
for lice.

OBJECTIVES OF CCC CAMP
The men of the Civilian Conserva
tion Corps are young. They are
being made healthy and vigorous by
their work in the forests. They rep
resent America’s future. Ttieii
work is guided by older hands who
have he cumulative forestry know!
edge and ideal of the past sixty
years. From its beginning in the
Department of Agriculture sixty
years ago, forestry in the United
States has moved steadily toward
bringing about wise use of our forest
lands. Now, through the Civilian
Conservation Corps, forestry is help
ing to shape the destiny of both, and
thus contributing materially to our
national security.
Forests, like people, must be con
stantly productive. The problems of
the future of both are interlocked.
American forestry efforts must be
.consolidated, and advanced.
