OULEH CITY DISPATCH
I. W. (BLS) H1nsos, Ediser
Entered at the postoftice at CouIes
City, WASH. as second-class matter.

FARMERS MUST COMPLY
WITH ALLOTMENT PLAN

Due to the new classification of a
farm which includes all the land
which farmer is operating as ONT
unit, it is necessary to comply with
the wheat allotment on all tracts in
order to avoid the penalty of losing
the Parity Payment. At the time the
community meetings were held we
gave out the information that as far
as the Parity Payment was concerned,
each tract stood by itself.
The following information was re-
ceived at meeting at Ephrata which
might prove of interest to you.
1. Winter wheat planted last year
as a cover crop for compliance in
1898 may be listed idle for compli-
ance in 1899, if it is kept pastured
down. We formerly gave out the in
formation that it must be plowed up.
e. A winter wheat crop may be
seeded through the crested wheat
grass in order to control weeds if a
person so desires. Anyone wishing to
maintain his grass however, should
not do 80 as it will undoubtedly kill
out the grass.
8. A mixture of lax and Grover
when the required amount of clover
seed is included will be classed as
cloven even though the flax is har-
vested. This would not necessitate the
matching acre for acre, as each acre
seeded of this mixture would be class
ed as clover.
4. If person meets his wheat
allotment by seeding oats or barley
and does not comply in any other way
he will receive his parity payment.
The county committee does not feel
that this practice is conducive to a
sound agricultural program. However,
according to the Federal Docket, the
parity payment may be earned in this
manner, is anyone desires to do so.
S. Every farmer should endeavor
to stay under his wheat allotment. If

his acreage Of wheat after the frs,
of May shows more than his wheat
allotment, he will lose his parity pay
ment. We are going to make every
effort to measure the wheat and notify
each farmer of he amount seeded be-
fore that date, but due to the late
spring, we are afraid that it will be
almost impossible to get every farm
completed. If farmer needs little
hay, and wishes to play safe this can
be seeded to oats or barley and will
thus reduce the wheat acreage. Every
farmer should remember that he must
meet his wheat allotment by January
l, 1910.
6. In order for the farmer to have
his land measured or receive pay
mont, he must fill out the estimate
sheet Form 314B. The Community
Committee have been holding meet
ing to assist in filling out these forms
and probably have filled out your
forms with you.
7. Every farmer who has a joint
compliance should obtain the joint
forms at the County ONCE
and have them signed by the land
lords Immediately.
If you should not have all the in
formation that you desire regarding
the farm program you should contact
one of the committeeman or the

1.-THE COWBOY AND
LADY, AT MARYLAND
Goldwyn's New Romantic
Comedy Provides Fine
Entertainment

What would happen if a cow
boy married the sophisticated
daughter of a rich U. S. Senator,
under the impression that she
was a servant girl? Samuel Gold
wynn is providing an answer to
that question with his new film,
"The Cowboy and the Lady" a
romantic comedy directed by H .
C. Potter for United Artists re-
lease and coming next Thursday
to the Maryland Theatre.
The cowboy in the case is Gary
Cooper; the lady Merle Oberon.
It's all very light and gay and ro-
mantle but you can see that
there's got to be a lot of psycholo-
gical readjustment between the
two principles before they're 60
ing to get to the ''happy-ever-
after" stage.
Being a cowboy is right up
Gary's alley. He started in the
movies as one and he's no further
removed from a successful charac-
teriZatiOn of that sort than the
nearest high-heeled boots and
10-gallon hat. With Merle it's a
little different. Goldwyn doesn't
expect anybody to believe Miss
Oberon could pass as servant
girl, so in the picture her mas
querade isn't designed to fool any
one but Cooper and he's so
blindly in love with her he's be-
lieving anything.
OF special interest is the tech
nicolor short subject which ac-
companies "The Cowboy and the
Lady" entitled Lincoln In The
White House."

HITLER,s REPLY

LONDON, Aug 29,-Adolf Hit
ler's reply to the British note will
be rushed here tonight. and 1t
probably will be the deciding fac
tor for war or peace in Europe
If Hitler remains as adamant as
he was when he replied to Pre-
mier Daladier of France, Euro
pean statesmen feel that there will
be. little chance of doing anything
further to restrain him from .seiz-
ing the Polish Corridor and Dam
zig.
There are widely different YER
sions of what his final note con-
tains. No one appears to know
what Hitler actually has written
to the British government, but in
both London and Berlin well in
formed circles are about equally
divided between optimism and pes
simism.
Only one thing seemed certain;
that Hitler had repeated his de-
termination to bring Danzig and
the Corridor back to Germany
Some British groups are hoping
that Hitler had stated his claims
so determindly that the British
government will see the hopeless
ness of the case and give up in
order to avoid war.
There is a certain amount of op-
timism among the Nazis, possibly
based on the fore mentioned rea-
sons.
The message is still in Berlin
and it is not certain whether it
