Seed Worry Over
Outlook for Corn


Supplied ~ he Collage Il Agrieult.rs. usi-
verify Of Illineis--WNU Services.
Threats Of q serious seed cor situa-
tion. brought on BY record freezes,
dominate the outlook situation for
corn, 10 farmers look forward to the
planting season.
Earlier In the season, before the
record winter had taken its toll In
seed. Z slightly Increased acreage Of
corn was in prospect for the country,
given normal weather conditions In the
spring. How much the seed corn Ut
nation In some states will alter this
prospect Is not known.
Likewise the full extent Of the
chinch bug threat cannot be measured
until q accurate check-up ear
be made Of what the record winter
has done to these pests.
One Of the relatively new outlets
for corn as farmers plan their 1898
ncreages IL the distilled spirits indus
try. which used more than 19,00O.OOO
bushels, or about four fifths Of I per
cent Of the crop, In 1934,S5 and prom
ises some additional, although not
large, Increase In 1895.
This years corn crop will follow a
domestic harvest Of 2,211 ,OOO. 900 BUSH
els In 1885, which was about So per
cent Of the 192S-32 average. The In.
crease Of 834.OOO.OOO over 1894 pro.
duction was partly the result Of an
increase but more SO OF better acre
yields.
Last year Illinois Increased its corn
acreage over that In 1884 BY about
y per cent, but the 1885 acreage was
still II per cent less than the l928-S2
average. The 1885 production Of corn
In Illinois was 137, 100000 bushels more
than the low harvest Of 1884, but more
than 100000 bushels less than the
192S-S2 ive-year average.
Weighing heavily In advance plans
for the years corn crop Is the fact
that feed supplies and the number Of
farm animals are now In the best bal
c In several years. With no more
live stock than there are now and
with normal yields from an acreage
Of corn as large as last years. there
might easily be aasurplus of corn and
the danger Of low prices.
Plans for this years corn crop are
affected somewhat by the fact that
although the quality Of the 1885 har-
vest was generally good. the crop was
poor in some sections Of the country.
Soft corr must necessarily be utilized
for feed or otherwise consumed be-
fore warm spring weather. Further

Serious Pest
in All Parts Of u. s.

~
Bindweed Is an actual or potentially
serious pest In all parts Of the United
States. This weed Is distributed over
many sections Of farm land in the
Midwest and may be started at any
remote point through planting contain
mated seed.
Very little information is available
as to the actual effect OF bindweed on
the yield Of grain crops. states a writer
In Successful Farming. Many farmers
contend that on well-tilied fields bind
weed does not reduce the yield Of small
grain. In order to secure some ac-
curate information on this question,
members Of the department of agron-
omy Of the Kansas State college Wis
tied farms infested with bindweed and
harvested wheat and oats from bind
weed areas and from adjacent areas in
the same field that were free from
bindweed.
The average yield Of wheat in the
bindweed areas was 1873 bushels per
acre, which was II bushels or "a per
cent less than the average yield Of 200
bushels secured from the adjacent bind
weed-free areas. The average oats
yield In the bindweed areas was 1876
bushels, which was 14.3 bushels or 46
per cent less than the average yield
of 300 bushels secured In the bind
weed-free areas.
Bindweed did not reduce the stand
of either wheat or oats but It did e
duce the stooling as indicated by head
counts made at the time of harvesting.

 Both airplanes were marked plain ly with the red cross, in hope that Italians would respect them as mercy craft.
 One plane, Q heavy Fokker, was piloted by Baron von Rosen of the Swedish Red Cross, the second, Q light military type machine, by a Russian Ethiopian pilot, Babicheff.
 It is planned for them to land at Yerga Alum, in Sidamo province, and leave a cargo of Red Cross sup plies to replace those destroyed in the hospital bombing. Then the light plane is to take of on o dan- gerous flight in search of a landing field at Muggeli, northwest of Dolo, in an area blanketed by Italian planes. It will be followed by the Fokker, as soon as the field is found with Dr. Kurt Hammer, Swedish consul and head of the Swedish Im- periol hospital here. Marcel Junod, representative of the Red Gross as passengers.
 The planes are to bring out Dr. Pride Hylander, head of the hospi- tai, wounded in the side by an Ital- ian machine gun bullet, and an un- named aide who was wounded in the jaw and tongue by either a bullet or bomb fragment. Fear was ex- pressed here that the aides wound might be critical.

 Appeal For Men
 Ik was understood that both Mar sIal Pietro Badoglia and Gen. Ro- dolfo Oraziani, directing the cam paigns in north and south, had ap- pealed to the government for men Experienced in colonial warfare to replace fascist blackshirt militia men.
 Military observers looked for a luil in the war on the ground but for Q bitter, merciless campaign in the air in an effort to demoralize the Ethiopians and bring a quick end to Q war which many Italians now are convinced must otherwise continue for many years before the army is able to subdue the country.

 As the press campaign for ruthless warfare started, 1t was announced that the air ministry had opened en- rollment lists for l,500 pilots.

Local Units Take Initiative In Plan
 To Organize State
Italian World War Veterans to Assist in Perfecting State Organization Protest Filed Over Alleged
 PrO-Britsh Sympathies of President Roosevelt

Formation of Q statewide federa- ton of Italian societies and clubs has been started, 1t was disclosed to-day. John DePastino, president of the Waterbury Federation of Italian Societies and Clubs has been authorized by the local organization to appoint committee to further the formation of the statewide group. Waterbury's federation, with its 5000 or more members, will form the nucleus of the state or- sanization.
 1t is expected that the movement for the state federation will be &C., cOmplished within @ few months. The Connecticut department of the Italian American World War Vet erans has agreed to lend It's aid in the movement as already posts of that organization belong to the Hartford and local federations and arc active in local activities of other communities of Connecticut.
 90 Societies
 The Waterbury federation is made up of about 30 societies and clubs. The local group, at special meeting, adopted a resolution to be forwarded to President Roosevelt attacking his alleged pro- British at- titudc. Italian societies throughout the fifth congressional district are to send copies of the resolution to Washington, also. It was declared to-day that the present attitude has aroused the indignation of the American citizens of Italian extrac- ton who sec the government being again made the puppet of snark European international politicians, just as 1t was in the World War.

SAFETY DRIVE IS
 PUSHED AHEAD
tcontinued from Page l.,

Continued from Page 1.) the Connecticut Motor club says that safety weeks, safety slogans and temporary campaigns are of little value, and that only Q permanent, well-balanced drive against acct- dents will lower their number and reduce insurance costs. The club points to Providence, R. l., as a city where lasting safety campaign has brought results. Though 1t has wind- ing narrow streets and Q complex traf1ic problem, Providence has be- come the safest city of it's size in the country. Average auto insurance costs in Providence are @, as cori1- pared with Waterburys $79, New Haven's $73, and Bridgeport's $66.
 Ten Point Program
 The safety division of the club will adhere to the following 10-point program during the year:
 1-Formation of advisory safety committees composed of club men1- bers and cooperating organizations. 2+Further development of clubs school safety program, which is now reaching sixty thousand school chil- dren.
 3-Development of Q sound pro- gram for high schools to assure sense of responsibility among future drivers.
 4-Cooperation with enforcement officials, state and local.
 5-Study of dispositions of court cases involving violations of the motor vehicle laws.
 6-Organization of a speakers bu- reau to supply speakers to service clubs, women's clubs, parent and teachers associations, and other representative groups.
 7-Development of uniform traflc rules and regulations.

 Combined Vets Bill
 The new bill is known as 'The American Legion, Veterans of For- eign Wars and Disabled American Veterans bill" The proposal ap- peared to be aimed at the rejection of the inflationary bill sponsored last session and to be offered again by Representative Wright Patrnan, democrat, Texas.

 The group, signers of a petition to force consideration of the $2,2OO,- 100000 measure to pay the veterans through issuance of new currency, agreed also to recess until Monday in an attempt to reach agreement with advocates of the Vinson bill, approved by three veterans organi- zations.

 Adds Ababa, Jan. 3-(UP)-Offi- cials, studying fragmentary reports from the northern front, expressed belief today that the Italian army has evacuated all of Tigre province but for narrow lines from Adigrat west to Aksum and from Adigrat south to Makale.
 These reports. strengthened by admissions of Italian strategic with drawals, indicated to military ex- perts that the Italian scouting col- slnns which once branched out from the main lines have been largely, if not entirely, driven back on the main communications system.
 There was no surprise here at the apparent development. due to the overwhelming numerical superiority and tactical mobility of the Ethio- plans.
 Never Occupied
 The province never had been actu- ally occupied by the Italians. In the first offensive early in October. the Italians formed line from Adigrat west to Aksum. Then early in No- vember they moved south to Makale. as the long, narrow lines were con- solidated without any resistance at ell, Italian columns branched out southward and westward from the Adigrat-Aksum line and eastward and westward from the Adigrat- Aakale line, attempting to clean auH the Tsmbien and other areas.
 It is indicated here that these cole Eans now are back where they started.
