the actual cost of operation to the

selves and use only privately-owned
cars where absolutely necessary. 1t

.A.A.A. ACREAGE CUT
.OVERSHOOTS GOAL
Wheat and Cotton Crops
Will Be Smaller Than
Anticipated.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Nature, stepping in as unwelcome
assistant to the A. A. AS crop reduc-
ing program, has made it overshoot a
goal or two.
A survey shows that the figures
aimed at in the five major programs
wheat. cotton, corn, tobacco and
hogs-have been virtually reached or
surpassed.
Drought, insects and floods gave
the reduction drive a mighty but un-
wanted shove.
It has become apparent to directors
of the program that some surpluses
they regarded as obnoxious a year
ago would be needed to avoid short
ages this year.
Entire Areas Wiped Out.
The officials. of course, are not
happy about nature horning in. They
sought orderly cutting of farm out
put. Nature. in her cruel way, has
been disorderly, wiping out whole
farms and areas.
They say benefit payments, offered
w AoA HiSlo AOi GuGGlIlS pTOuuCIlOn,
come as life-savers to people whose
crops have been wiped out. There is
talk also of setting up crop reserves
to guard against future disaster.
Wheat, the bread grain, averaged
844,812,20o bushels during 1928-1932.
The A. A. A. sought to cut that to
7l8,09O,S70. Now the July report in
dicates a crop of only 483 ,662, 900
bushels.
Cotton Program.
The cotton program promises to hit
the mark closer. The average in
l928-1932 was 1887, 900 bales and the
Farm Administration sought to pull
it down 90 l0,460, 0,251 bales. The off,
cial indications now point to To-
l95, ,342.
1t became known yesterday that If
the August estimate is 10000 900
bales or less, the A. A. A. might ease
up on the drastic Bankhead control
plan provided Southern planters de-
mand that action in large numbers.
crop of 2,113, 1877 900 bushels of
corn was indicated officially in the
July report. while the administration
sought reduction to l,963.9I7, 900.
Report of new drought damage. how
ever, led unofficial forecasters to pre-
dict Fall harvest considerably
smaller than the July estimate.

'KITCHENEERING' OPENING THIS
AFTERNOON HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL

"kitcheneering written about,

weeks, became a happy reality to-
day for many local housewives who

One can we'll imagine, for exam
pie, that men will be enthusiastic,
in their approval of an English
beefsteak pie that was lifted bodily
out of ancient English history by
the HomemakerS' bureau, given a
few deft touches of modernization,
and offered from the stage here as
a fascinating elimination to the eX-
planation of a brand new way of
mixing pastry.
And then there was real gen.
uine. identifiable and flavorful
graham cracker crust. Bane OF
many a housewife s existence, par
ticularly when the children arc de-
MED the richer pastries, graham
cracker crust was revealed by Mrs.
Iaughton as the subject of thou
sands of inquiries received by the
bureau inquiries which resulted III
many hours of patient testing and
experimentation in he bureau
kitchen to develop and perfect the
recipe which she demonstrated.
Those to whom a good meringuc
has been more of mirage than a
meringue, were given a real ray of
light by Mrs. Laughton in her DEM
onstration of ways and means to

Another fascinating revelation
brought by the first day of glitch

of a standard and highly perfected
biscuit recipe to variety of deli
cacies. featured among them being
dumplings glazed with maple syrup
and served with a maple hard
sauce.

as a juvenile joy with an adult ap-

vealed tomorrow.
Then, to top off the program in
a way that whetted every appetite
for more. Mrs. Laughton demon
strated the preparation of COM
plete meal on a single broiler.
All in ALL the opinion of those
present seemed to be that "Kitch-

the name that Julia Lee Wright has
given to the cookbook which has
added to her fame as home econ
omist, "Recipes You III Enjoy. For
today's recipes were enjoyable. and
will undoubtedly be enjoyed for a
long, long time to come in local
homes. After the program, hun
dreds of women filed past the
tables on which the finished pro-
ducts were displayed. What they
saw must indeed have inspired many
of them to determine upon especial
treats for the home table at the
earliest opportunity, and it is quite
likely that many local dinner to-
night will be given a new air of
festivity, thanks to Mrs. Laughton s
effective demonstrations, which will
be continued starting at 2 o'clock
tomorrow.
The program for the second day
will feature a touch of frivolity
without loss of everyday value, fol-
party dishes which may also be
used for the family will provide the
principal features which will be
demonstrated.
