SOIL CONSERVATION
MAPS READY In KENT
Aerial Photographs WIN Determine
Extent To Which Farmers Compiled

Within the past several weeks the
Kent county extension Office has re-
ceiyed numerous inquiries from
those farmers who signed applica-
tions in the agricultural conserva-
tion program regarding their bene-
fit payments for 1897 compliance,
and the features included in the
1888 agricultural program which
will be announced later through the
press and at community educational
meetings to be arranged by County
Agent Russell +. Wilson in cooper
alton with county and district COM
mittees of the Kent County Agri-
cultural Conservation Association.
The extent to which farmers in
this county have complied with the
rulings of the Agricultural Adjust
ment Administration with reference
to the 1887 program was determined
by field inspection, and the acreage
measurements in each field are now
being checked over by the use of
aerial photographs. AS there was
delay in receiving these aerial maps
from Washington. the field inspec-
tion was started last September, and
each supervisor was instructed TO
secure the names of those farms
which bounded each farm to be in
spected In order that these places
could be easily located on the aerial
maps. and the various fields prop
erly designated as to crops and acre
age.

OIL FOR HOME HEATING
REACHES ALL-TIME HIGH

Sales Of heating oils for domestic

an all-time record of 99,257,0O0
barrels, exceeding 1895 by twenty
nine percent, according to the Amer
lean Petroleum Institute, RCA build
ing, Rockefeller Center. Private
homes with oil burners accounted
for more than seventy percent Of
the total consumption.
The New England states were the
outstanding consumers, using more
than half the national consumption
of range oil, total of 27,292,000
barrels.
According to the institutes report
there were nearly million and a
half oil burners in use at the end Of

THREE SAFE DRIVING RULES
(By John Jaster, jr.)

There are many persons who use
the streets and highways who have
never had an accident of any kind.
This is highly encouraging and
shows that accidents are not inevi-
table. THEY CAN BE PREVENT
ED.
The safe driver has only three
rules of driving conduct that are
sufficient to keep him out of traffic
trouble. They are:
/. Maintain your car in topnotch
mechanical condition.
g. Always have your car under
control.
8. Keep your eyes on the road.
These rules are simple and SEN.
sible. Follow them and help pre-
vent motor vehicle accidents.

DON'T GET UP NIGHTS
