Negro Farmers Asked
To Grow More Food

A meeting was held in the Ambrose
School at Lexington of negro prea-
cheers and school trustees last Satur-
day to make definite plans to en-
courage negro farmers to produce
more food in 1912 than ever before.
The meeting was called to order by
Miss Dorothy McBee, Superintend-
ent OF Education who insisted nal
they all cooperate with the Wal
Board of the county in an effort to
increase the production IF food.
Mr.. Fl. L. Nichols, Chairman of the
Holmes County War Board made an
arousing address using as his ceh-
trail thought the progress Of the war
and how it effects US in Holmes
County.
Mr.. A. P. Carroll, Soil Conserva-
zionist, urged that each and every
one as a leader, in his community
do his part in helping neighbor far
mers produce and conserve
food.
Miss Allene Mccormick, Home
Demonstration Agent, stressed the
necessity for eating plenty OF vege-
tables to keep the body healthy and
urged them to eat green and yellow
vegetables for the health giving
qualities these vegetables give.
1t was explained that a garden
contest would be carried on through
out the county and the trustees OF
each school will have direct charge
of this work in his community.
The end of this contest will be the
month of May and gardens will be
judged during the last week OF thai

Third National LOTTERY
Set For March nth
Groups Will Not
Be Called Before
Several Months

Tie third national Selective Ser
vice lottery will be held in Washing
ton March II when order numbers
for the registrants who enrolled in
February to swell this Nations vast
pool of potential manpower will be
determined, National Headquarters,
Selective Service System has an
bounced.
In all probability approximately
eight or nine thousand capsules will
be drawn in this first wartime lot
terry since 1918 and the third since
enactment of the Selective Training
and Service Act of 1910.
Under present plans, the order
numbers of the registrants who en-
rolled as of February 16, will not
be in~tegrated in the old master lists
as were the order numbers of the
men who registered on July l, 1871,
in the second Selective Service Reg
istration. Consequently it is not ex-
pected that any of the February re-
gistrants will be indicted in the
immediate future.
It is contemplated that registrants
in the. third registration will no. 4he
called until they have answered their
missionaries and have been CLASH
fled, which, probably will not be
before May according to expecta-
tons of National Headquarters
Prior to May, all War Department
quotas necessarily must be filled
from men, 81 to 35, inclusive, who
registered in 1910 and 1941.
If, while the February registrants
are being classified, the W., Dep
artment requests men in sge groups
from 81 to 35 years, the quotas will
come from the 1910 and 1941 regis
trants. If the request is for men OF
the third registration, tie calls will
be filled by the February 1912, re
gistrants.
Serial numbers issued to the new
registrants by the local boards, in
the manner prescribed by Selective
Service Regulations, will be marked
tt, To and so on, to designate the
Third Registration enrollees, and the
numbers in the capsules drawn in the
third lottery on March II will be-
gin with the number 10,001.

Farmers Can Get
Crop Insurance

The county AAA office has sent
data on average yields and premium
rates to all farmers in the county
for their information in determining
whether or not they want to in
sure their cotton crops in 1912.
All cotton farmers in the county
should now decide whether or not
they want to insure their 1912 cot
ton crop and file their application
as soon as possible.
Crop insurance must be taken out
before the cotton is planted or be-
fore the deadline of March 10th,
whichever comes first. Protection
will extend throughout the season
until the cotton is weighed in at
the gin, provided this is not later
than January 81, 1943.
Cotton crop insurance will cover
loses from many causes, including
weevils and other insects, plant dis
eases, flood, drought hail, wind and
other unavoidable causes, designated
by the Federal Crop Insurance Cor
poration.
Producers may insure their crops
for rs per cent or so per cent,
which ever they wish, of the aver
age 1934-40 yield for their farm.
The cost of insurance to each
farmer will depend on the crop loss
history of his farm. The premium
can be paid in cash or cotton, or it
can be deducted from the first pay
ment he the produ GER under the
AAA pl ogram or fro his indemnity
of he suffers a crop loss.
Losses will be paid by a certifi-
cale of indemnity which may be inn
mediately exchanged for cash or
used to obtain a cotton loan for
the amount covered by the certifi-
cate. The county AAA office is
now ready to assist producers IN
filling out their applications for cot
ton crop insurance.
