NEW FARM ACT TO
AID ALL GROWERS
Good and Poor Farmer to
Benefit From Soil Inn
provement Program

College Station, Raleigh, March %
The new soil improvement program
will aid the grower who has been
practicing good farming methods as
we'll as the grower who has been
neglecting hi ssoil.
It is the desire of the men who
are working out the new program to
make it apply as equitably as pos
sihle to all farmers, said Dean I. o.
Schaub, of State College.
If a grower has already placed a
good portion of his farm in soil i'm
provement crops, the dean said, he
will receive the soil conservation pay
ment of Is cents to 81 an acre on land
in these crops.
If he has built up his land so that
it produces high yields, he will re-
ceive higher diversion payments for
land shifted from soil-depleting to
soil improvig crops, since the diver
sion payments are based on the pro-
ductivity Of the land.
In this way, the dean explained, the
good farmer is paid more for the
greater sacrifice he makes in taking
high-producing fields out of cash
crops and placing them in improve
ment or conservation crops.
For example, a grower producing
an average of 600 pounds of tobacco
per acre will probably receiver diver
sion payments at the rate of $50 an
acre, while a grower with an average
yield of 1000 pounds will probably
get $50 an acre.
On the other hand, farmer who
has been raising soil-depleting cash
crops to the neglect of soil-building
crops can, if he wishes, divert large
proportion of his cash crop land to
soil improvement uses and thereby
receive diversion payments on fair
ly large acreage.
Unlike the old AAA, the new pro-
gram is not limited to basic commo-
dities. If affects every farmer who
wishes to participate in the soil-im-
provement, the dean stated.

SPORT SLAN1S

Tony Lazzeri was on the sunset side of his baseball career and the Yankees were in the market for a replacement. The legs were less spry, the batting eye somewhat dimmer they thought Push 'Em-Up Tony was just about through.
 Then in one day against the ill., fated Athletics, the old Lazzeri rose up and knocked major and Am erican League batting records all over the place. It was a field day for all the Italian derived stock dressed in the Yankee livery-Di- Maggie, Crosetti and Lazzeri, and Tony led all the rest in salvo that more than matched the last great day of Ruth when the Bam- bino, wearing the unfamiliar trap pings of the Boston Braves, got three homers off Red Lucas and Guy Bush in single game at Pittsburgh on May 25, 1885. Ruths last great stand was year, almost to the day. before Tony's great day.
 The Ruthian bat is stilled now, but Tony's partisans figure there's plenty left in his big stick, that the blast against the AS is not his final salvo
 New "Murderers' Row"
 This new order in the Yankee setup, sparked by young Joe Di- Maggie, the prize rookie from the coast, is bringing memories of that old murderers' row-Gehrig, Ruth, Meusel and this same Lazzeri who won attention back in his Coast League days by seeking out 60 homers in one season.
 The Yankees, who were supposed to be overstocked with experience and a bit light on agility, now are thinking they may take the Am erican League flag away from the floundering world champion Detroit Tigers-and the new triumvirate is expected to lead the way.
 Young Joe, no doubt, is getting a lot of good advice from his coun- trymen, and their own work is im- proving on comeback scale at a hot pace. Lazzeri batted mere .273 last season, and Crosetti .256-signs that they were getting near the old-age limit SO far as baseball usefulness is concerned. With young Joe as their protege, the old mas ters are taking a new lease on life and having a lot of fun out of slamming the Yankees to the top of the heap.
 At 32, Lazzeri collected all sorts of batting marks against the Ath- letics in that wild, 25-2, game at Shibe Park, which Connie Mack didn't even attend
