Competition Keen

Following the announcement OF
the third statewide annual Acres OF
independence Competition, sponsored
in this territory by The Durant
News and statewide by the Clarion
Ledger, a great deal of interest has
been manifest through inquiries con-
corning the competition.
The executive committee Of the
i.4cres OF Independence Competition,
plant 20 Prosper and Good Provider
Competition, consisting of %represen-
tatives from Agricultural Extension
Service, the Farm Security Admin
istration, Vocational Education, and
the newspapers sponsoring the COM
petitions, met in Jackson and seeing
a situation in which one family
might win the grand prize in several
Of these contests, which was a very
unwholesome situation, il was agreed
that This year a family is eligible
for a prize in but one of these con-
tests and may enter the one of his
choice.
The top sweepstakes prize in the
landowner division will be $500
while the top late prize IN the
tenant division will be 500. The
prizes for each Of the four districts
will be a follows: First place $50,
second Pc $25, and third place
$40.
Despite the fact that many farm
ers who entered the first contest
are now in the armed froces agri-
cultural authorities believe that the
contest will serve to spar people on
in the production of Food for Free
dom, and this competition will at
ford a chance for some of them to
receive a little extra reward in the
form of nice cash prizes for their
labor this year. -
