Remuins Unbalanced

Recent congressional rejec-
ton of a $50 million dollar par
ity payment ALLEGATION will not
affect 1889 parity or conserva-
ton payments to Big Horn
county farmers, George Miller,
chairman of the Big Horn Coun-
ty Agricultural Conservation
committee, announced today.
The ALLEGATION was for 1910
parity payments only, and 1899
parity payments have already
been appropriated, Mr.. Miller
explained.
He added that 212 million dol
lars was appropriated last year
for 1899 parity payments. At the
same session at which the 1910
parity payment bill was de-
feated, the house of representa-
tives passed a bill providing 500
million dollars for conservation
payments in 1889.
TO be eligible for parity pay
mentS this year, the farmer
must have planted within his
1889 acreage allotment and have
planted wheat for harvest in
1898 or 1889. The 1899 parity
payment for wheat will be II
cents a bushel for the normal
production established for the
farm under the 1889 AAA pro-
gram.
There is no provision to make
a parity payment for 1888.

are Matching have come from
several sections of the county to

tensive cricket control campaign
again under the supervision of
federal. state and county agen-
cies. H. c. Heckenlively, who

the same capacity in 1889. He
will work under the supervision
of o. b. Hitchcock of Bozeman,

Swisher, assistant state super
visor.
Federal funds have been ap-
propriatd to provide for the
purchase of material including
dust, oil, and tin barrier, which
will be used separately or in
combination in an effort to pro-
tect the crops in the infested
areas. The county is asked to
cooperate in assisting in the
storage, distribution and SUPER

Grafton, it was stated. The con-
tract was the same as offered
last year which was a sliding
scale contract of approximately
$4.35 per ton based on the pres
ent price of sugar, officials
said.
Members attending from the
Hardin district were H. "A. Will
liams, j. A. Koebbe and Andrew
Kallen.
The committee offered a
counter proposition for the COM
pany to consider which was re-
fused by the company. Contrary
to reports, it was stated that
the Lowell, Wyo. district has.
not yet accepted the contract,
offered by the Great Western
Sugar Co., nor has T%orrington,
Wyo., another Holly Sugar Co..
district accepted the 1899 con-
tract.
The fact that Torrington has
not yet accepted the 1889 con-
tract was confirmed when in a
telephone conversation with
Torrington producers, the Har-
din growers learned they were
dissatisfied with the contracts.
