TO BE

Voters in Sheridan county's SO

April 6 for school trustees for the
various districts for n and three
year terms.
One trustee Is regularly elected in
each district for a three year term
at each annual election. In case APP
pOintments have been made to fill
vacancies resulting from the resigna-
ton or death of trustees, the appoint
ed trustee serves only to the time of
the election and a trustee Is elected
to serve for the balance Of the term
OF the replaced trustee. There are
several such cases in the county.
The majority Of the districts will
also vote on an additional school
levy. The levy will afford many dis
tricts to get appointments from the
state equalization fund.
New Law For Ballots
A new law made by the state legis-
lature and which went into effect i'm
mediately changes the form OF the
ballot when voting on a special levy
According to the Interpretation of
the statute, when a school district
votes for an additional school levy
the amount voted must be stated in
dollers as well as in mills on the
ballot.
AS an example, county superinten-
dent Olaf Aasheim explains that if
the taxable valuation Of a school dis
trict Is $3S, 1882, a levy Of / mill On the
taxable valuation of the school will
produce a revenue of $3S.3S2. The
The actual amount to be raised by
the levy must be shown on the bal
lot as well as the levy itself. In this
case the ballot would read a / mill
levy or S32 40

new RULINGS ARE
MADE GOVERNING
CONTRACT SIGNERS
Lid Not Off For Allotment
Signers Is Secretary's
Statement

The Sheridan County Wheat Pro
ductiOn Control Association has no
been officially advised by the wheat
section, whether or not seeding of
minimum acreage requirements will
be waived In the county for the crop
year 1885 stated Harry Ehrmann-
traut, secretary of the Sheridan
county board Wednesday.
Press reports circulating In this
section stated that the lid was off
for the wheat growers" and that the
danger Of interpretation had
caused Secretary Wallace to remove
the acreage restrictions imposed un-
der the wheat allotment program and
authorize farmers signed up on pro-
ductiOn reduction contracts to 60 the
limit on acreage production this year.
The statements are erroneous.
Mr.. EhTmanntraut, In an official
statement stated that the hberaliz-
ation OF restrictions on the planting
Of wheat for 1885 is contingent upon
several provisions which must be
observed by the contract signers
wishing to avail themselves Of this
privilege.
The contract signer must set aside
contracted acreage for 1885 regard
less OF the amount of wheat seeded.
The amount of increase in acreage
must be limited to not more than rs
percent increase over the base acre
age for 1885. The signer must agree
to make a corresponding reduction in
1886 II the secretary OF agriculture
SO requests.
An official form (Form W-59) is
now being prepared to be executed
by the 1885 producers Landlord and
tenant or owneroperator) and the
county allotment committee which
must be executed by the person or
persons interested In the land on
which increased seeding Is to be
made. Should an operator overseed
his maximum without executing
Form W-59 such action will consti-
tute a violation OF the Contract.
The 1855 adjustment payments will
be made to contract signers whether
they increased their seedlings or not.
However, all farmers increasing
their acreage under this liberahza-
ton will have their second 1885 pay
ments impounded until after it has
been determined that they have
made the corresponding reduction In
1895. If tenants change on a farm be-
tween 1885 and 1886, the 1886 tenant
will receive the second 1885 adjust
ment payment.
The limitation imposed or the
acreage permitted to be sown on
non-contracted land has not been
changed. In other words, on non
contracted farms the acreage or the
base period average acreage, which
ever Is the larger.
Contract signers, wishing to com
bine two or more units under a joint
Compliance agreement or wishing to
request permission from the county
allotment committee to seed wheat
for hay or pasture must do so before
seeding, as neither joint compliance
agreements nor requests for seed
wheat for hay or pasture will be
accepted II entered after seeding of

THIS name is derived from the
- French word blanc" meaning
white or light In color. Tradition has
it that the surname originated with
an order of the friars, who went about
the country clothed in white gar
ments. At any rate, the word blanc
has inspired number of other sur
names-Blanchett, being the diminu-
tive of Blanch; Blanchf1ower, coming
from the French blanche fleur, mean
ing white flower; Blanchmains, from
the French blanches mains, meaning
white hands; Blankfront, from blanc
front, indfcating white forehead, and
Blancpain. signifying white bread.
There are other surnames employing
the prefix Blanch.
The coat of arms here illustrated is
accredited to Thomas Blanchard, who
came to America from Penton,
Hampshire, England, in 1899, and set
tied in Braintree, Mass. In 1640 he
moved to Charlestown, Mass. His will
was proved in 1854, naming as his
heirs Mary, his wife, and sons, Thomas,
Samuel and Nathaniel.
