All AAA Payments

All AAA benefit payments due

The treasury department has an
nounced that all AAh checks now
being distributed are good and may
be cashed at any time.
The dean could not say just when
checks for payments now due will
be distributed, as preparations for
these payments had not been COM
pleted at the time the AAA work
was suspended.
The tobacco marketing cards
used during the past season had been
checked over at the state AAA to-
bacco office at State College and
were almost ready to be sent to
Washington for final approval.
The marketing cards are neces-
sary in determining the amount of
the tobacco adjustment payments
for each grower, the dean said.

Eastern Farmers
Urged To Raise
Velvet Beas s

Farmers in eastern North Caro-
lima are advised that 1886 will be
an especially good year for planting
velvet beans.
The quality Of the seed now
available is unusually high, while
the price is low, said E. C. Blair,
extension agronomist. at State COL
lege.
Velvet beans make the most
practical soil-improvement crop
for light sandy land, Blair pointed
out, and they are the best crop that
can be grown for winter pastures
in the coastal plain area.
For the best results in eastern
North Carolina, velvet beans should
be planted in April in alternate rows
with corn. A bushel of beans will
plant three acres.
Both the beans and the corn
should be iertilized in the row be-
fore planting, Blair said. He re-
commended the application of 800
, pounds of a 4-8-4 mixture to the
acre.
The beans should be cultivated
until the bean plants grow up to
the corn rows.
Reports from South Carolina and
Georgia indicate that the high quail
ity of the seed this year is due to
the good weather that prevailed at
harvest time.
The good weather was also re-
sponsible for a large crop, Blair said,

to a minimum the things they will
have to buy with their limited cash
income.
Every farm should have a year
round home garden with a large
variety Of vegetables. There should
be enough grain, hay, and pastur-
age to supply all the livestock with
a balanced ration.
Soil-improving crops like cow
peas, soybeans, velvet beans, and
lespedeza, plowed under at maturi-
ty, will build up the land and at
the same time reduce the amount
of fertilizer needed.
First plan for the food, feed, and
soil-building crops, Professor Will
Hams, urged, them more or less as
a side line, arrange for the produc-
ton of some cash crops.

Stresses Importance
Of Balanced Farming

The abolition of the AAA has
intensified the importance of a well
balanced farming schedule on every
North Carolina farm.
The wide-awake farmer will raise
at home the food and feed crops
needed to supply his family and his
livestock, said Prof. C. B. Williams,
head of the State College agronomy
department.
He will also devote a great deal of
his land to soil-improvement and
erosion-control crops, Professor
Williams added.
Taking into consideration the
uncertainty of prices which farm
ers may get for their cash crops
this year, he continued, it would be
most unwise to specialize in the
production of cash crops, with the
expectation of buying large quanti-
ties of food, feed, and fertilizer.
A general increase in the produc-
ton of cash crops will no doubt
lower the price to such an extent
that farmers cash incomes this year
will be rather limited, the professor
declared.
In view of this, it is essential that
the farmers plan every way pos
sible to reach a state of self-suf-
ficiencY, he added. 50 as to reduce

But Uncle Tom has neighbors
known for their chicken loving
proclivities. Several nights ago
he missed three of his prize pull

Again Uncle Tom sat up and

two nights in succession, but the
chicken thief failed to return.
On the next night. however, the

all but four hens, a pullet and one
big old rooster.
For three nights, then, Uncle
Tom, shotgun in hand, stood guard,
but the maruder did not return.
For the next four nights, although
the chicken house was left unguard-
ed, no more chickens disappeared,
but on the fifth night the prowler
returned and made a clean sweep Of
everything except a rooster.
Early next morning when
Uncle Tom went to let his chickens
out of the henhouse, he found only

MAINE VOTE SEEN KEY TO PENNSYLVANIA FORECAST
One-Party Rule
Is Resented in
South Carolina
Ne,U Deals Victory
) Hushes Complaint
for Present.
BY FITz HUGH McMAsTER,

Special correspondent OF Tne Star.
COLUMBIA, 8. c., September l9.-
While the crushing victory for the
New Deal in South Cardinals pri-
mary has hushed all opposition to
President Roosevelt for the time
being, there is evidence that some
thing may come from resentment at
one party domination In South Caro-
lima that has been felt for many
years.
The inactivity Of the Republican
party In the State gives stimulus to
this. Both the Gardner Hambright.
White faction Of the Republican
party, and the "Tieless Joe" Tolbert
faction are practically quiescent.
Among whites there has been deep
seated resentment at the binding to
the Democratic party. It was deeply
felt in the 1905, nearly SO years ago,
when all Democrats had to vote to
B. r. Tillman in the general elec-
ton. The opposition to him had been
most violent in the primaries, and
most bitterly did this opposition re-
sent being compelled to stand by the
nominees in the general electi,n. IN
fact, . small remnant did break party
lines and vote for an independent
candidate.
Through the Tillman and, possibly
more so, in the Blease regime, the
oppositionists have held their noses
when voting for the nominees in the
general election.

Another feature of the primary,
which was not so unexpected. was the

COLUMBUS, Ohio, September 19.-
Ohio has been q little fiicker-h headed

and that. as it has, for omens Of what
November 3 holds for the Nation in

let alone learn from its citizens how
the Nation will 60.
It watched Maine 60 Republican.
and that was q headache to the New
Dealers hereabouts, but, like their
defeated G. o. p. opponents four years
ago when Maine looked the other way,
the Roosevelt faithful consoled them
selves by reminding each other that
the old saw about "As Maine goes.
etc. :" didn't always hold true, and
anyway, Maine being captured by the
Republicans was great deal like Hol-
land being captured by the Dutch.
Whether or not the ancient proph-
ecy is true, Ohio Republicans are
jubilant, and they are smilingly re-

The Scripps- Howard poll Of five cities

despite his $4,000 series of radio
