SOIL Depletion
PLAN EXPLAINED

Many farmers are asking for de.
finite information as to how the ac-
reaee of their soil depicting base
may he used if they wish to meet
the requirements for payment under
the 1897 Agricultural Conservation
program. Here is a brief summary as
outlined by County Agent Peterson
On So per cent of the soil depict
ing base acreage for 1887. land may
be used for any of the following
crops or purposes: % wheat. CD
oats. (3) barley. CA flax. (5) corn,
co potatoes, 90 sugar beets, (S)
root crops (for feed. CO. cultivated
sunflowers. Clu) mustard tcommer-
cialD. Ill rape. (12) truck and
vegetable crops, (13) grain and
sweet sorShums. broom corn, sudan
grass harvested for seed. grain or
hay) (14l millets, (15) s%oybeans,
field beans. cowpeas, field peas, seed
peas harvested for grain, seed or
hay) Cl6) cultivated fallow (sum-
merfallow).
The Is per cent of the base acres
may be used as follows: (A) Neutral
uses: Orchards. vineyards, nut
trees. bush fruits, hops and peren-
NAL vegetables, regardless of use of
land between rows. 2.-Idle crop
land. Bulbs and nursery stock.
perennial or biennial lesumes
or perennial grasses seeded follow
ing summerfallow when no soil-de-
pleting crop has been seeded on such
land for harvest in 1887. OBJ Soil
conserving crops: 1.-Legumes, al
falfa. sweet, red. alsike. white,
strawberry. mammoth, crimson. bur
and sour clover. 2.-Grasses, blue
grass, orchard. bronze. wheat grass
es, rye grasses, timothy. redtop, bent
grasses, fescues. tall oat grass,
Reeds canary grass and velvet
grass.
The above legumes and grasses
may be seeded with or without a
nurse crop. If seeded with a nurse
crop the nurse crop is not to be
harvested for grain or hay.
Another point over which there
has been confusion is the Is per
cent seeded to soil conserving crops
in 1886 and which was destroyed by
drouth or winter killing. This may
be seeded to any of the following
crops for use as forage: millets, SUI
dan grass. rape, oats, barley, annual
legumes if approved by the county
committee.
The responsibility for meeting the
requirements TO be eligible for a
grant are up TO each individual far
mer. The county and community
committees should be consulted on
points which are not clearly in
mind.

There were reports to indicate the

would take swift and terrible revenge,

Thus far only japanese naval forces
have been engaged with 10000 Chi

confirmation.
DR.. Rawlinson was motoring with
his wife and 15-year-old daughter
Jean on Avenue Edward VII when the
bombing occurred. He stopped the

Officers of the American consulate

20 years; DR.. Robert K Reischauer
member of the Prir ceton University
faculty, in Shanghai on a study tour.
The war in the air was only one
phase of the battle of Shanghai. The
conflict, in the second day of actual
bloodshed, was fought from the air
on water and on land along a front
from Shanghai to the mighty Yangtze
River, 10 miles north.
Mostly it ragged along the Whangpoo
River, Shanghais Harbor and wind
ing highway to the sea, crowded with
the shipping Of many nations and
the 81 naval vessels that Japan has
concentrated here.
Far north the five-Week-old unde-
clared war in Hopeh Province con-
tinued bitterly, involving r-increas-
ing forces and a steadily widening
area.
War planes of both China and Japan
were over Shanghai most Of the day
in spite of heavy, low-hanging clouds
and frequent rain. What tolls Of
death and destruction they claimed in
distant japanese and Chinese parts
could not even be estimated today
In the international area the fatal
bombs fell late Saturday afternoon
when Shanghai streets are always
teeming
Two plunged together into the in
tersection of Avenue Edward VII and
Thibet road, in the French concession.
Police there said they killed $50, in
Guiding DR.. Rawlinson and Honigs-
berg, and wounded 750, all Chinese.
The other tore a great hole in Nam
king road, just between two of the
city's leading hotels, the Cathay and
the Palace, both packed with guests
and refugees This is in the Inter-
national Settlement Police said two
foreigners were killed there and seven
wounded. They estimated Chinese
dead there at 1870 and wounded at 10.
Bomb Fragment Tears Off Leg.
Reischauer was in the lobby of the
Palace Hotel when a bomb fragment
tore off his leg. He died later in a
hospital
The known Americans injured were
R. R. Rouse Of Saco, Mont, and J.
M. Kerbey, employe of a firm Of
accountants. Both were expected to
recover
Rouse, a former Marine, now en-
ployed in Shanghai, was hit in the
left knee and shoulder. He was
caught in a crossfire with machine
guns. His wife and child, with him
at the time, were unhurt.

The next morning the relief column
entered the city to find 65 OF the for
eigners had been killed and 1876
wounded. The Chinese court, with
the Empress Dowager disguised as q
peasant, fed to distant Sianfu, where
it remained for 18 months.
Following capture of the city,

Boxer protocol Its provisions in
cluded permission for fortifications
and policing by foreigners Of the lega-
ton quarter of Peking and for main
tenance by foreign troops of COM

China foreign civilians might be evac-

1t Is under this agreement that the
United States and many other nations

Tientsin Finally Quieted.
When quiet was restored in Tientsin
on July Is there were about $4,000
soldiers Of various nations on hand.
A large detachment was dispatched to
peking
In the capital city the siege had
continued sporadically. The Belgian,
Austrian. Italian, Dutch and French
Legations were burned. The American
Legation was saved.
The last night Of the siege brought
the fiercest attack by the Chinese. The
relief force lay just outside the city.
A conference had been arranged be-
tween the Ministers and Chinese Off
cials, but when the time arrived the
Chinese sent note saying they were
too busy to attend. Minister Conger
reported later that they added that
"strict orders had been given to their
troops not to fire upon US, and If any
body did they would be court-mar-
tailed" Yet that night the Chinese

'RESOLUTE' ACTION
Cabinet Weighs Measures
10 Force Chinese to Re-
consider Stand.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
TOXIC, August Is. Sunday After
a three hour cabinet session, the Jap.
anese government early today asserted
that latest developments in China, in.
cluding those in the Shanghai area,
made it necessary for Japanese au-
thorities to resort to firm, resolute
measures"
These measures would be taken TO
make the Marking government and
the Kuomintang effectively reconsider
past positions, the statement said.
japanese authorities said they did
not intend any harm to the Chinese
masses in general and that their aim
was still for cooperation between
China, Manchukuo and Japan.
The cabinet heard from Admiral
Mitsumasa Yomai, minister of the
navy, and Koki Hirota, foreign minis
ter, detailed reports on the Shanghai
situation, after which measures to be
taken were discussed.
Arrogance SndTkcu W SHlucSe.
The navy office issued a lengthy
statement reviewing clashes between
Chinese and japanese since July 7,
when Sino-Japanese forces were IN a
brush west of Peiping, and emphasiz-
ing the claim that Japan had exer-
cised self-restraint throughout. 1t al
legged the Chinese grew increasingly
arrogant and offensive
The Chinese attitude, the statement
asserted, showed the Chinese misln-
terpreted japanese measures, such as
evacuation of the Yangtze Valley.
which was intended primarily to pre-
vent the spread Of hostilities.
The Chinese grow presumptuous
and advance two steps if the Jap
aneSe concede one" the statement
said. There is no limit to their
atrocty and ayarice. The Japanese
are now compelled to take neces-
sary and effective measures for self
defense"
