No limit On Vegetable
Acreage For This Yeor

Tar Heel farmers can produce
all the vegetables they want to
this year without worrying a
bout acreage.
Previously proposed limitations
on the production of commercial
vegetables. potatoes, and sweet po-
tatoes, on acres diverted from al
lotment crops will not be in ef-
feet for 1855 according to a re-
cent announcement by the U. S.
Department of Agriculture.
The proposal limiting acreage
of these crops originally grew out
of the prospect that 1854 crops
might add substantially to some
serious surplus problems. The
prospect of more flexible price
supports next year, plus the ef-
tects of widespread drought this
year. have eaSed these fears,
Secretary of Agriculture Ezra
Benson explained in announcing
the change.
Preliminary checks have also
shown that vegetable and po-
tato acreageS were not increased
in 1854 even though there was
no limitation on the use of around
25 million acres diverted from
allotment crops. Benson added.
With relaxation of the regula-
tions on Noncompliance and to-
tai acreage allotments on basic
crops for price support purposes,
there is now greater opportunity
to grow various other crops and
less pressure to plant vegetables
and potatoes on diverted acres,
the secretary said.

PLAYING CUPID
By Helen Weber

MY AUNT LYDIA has always
4NI been uncanny in her match
making, and she can point to a
long list of successful marriages
as a result of her conniving.
/ had always rebelled against
what l called. her meddling, and
all she had to do was mention
somebody's son, brother or neph-
ew. and l. not only, would have
nothing to do with an arranged
meeting. but l would get angry
and tell her she was interfering
too much in my affairs. and please
to leave me alone Because l had
broken my engagement to Clyde
and was now twenty-five was no
reason for Aunt Lydia to think
that l was going to devote my life
to my career.
1t wasn't until David and l had
been married for six months that
1 learned our meeting had been
arranged by Aunt Lydia.
But" I spluttered, David and
I met going through revolving
door" Aunt Lydia laughed and
said,
L had to plan it that way, you
would never cooperate with me.
I was angry and I not only told
Aunt Lydia So 1 told David
Are you sorry?" He asked me.
well, no." l said. How could
I be when love you so much, and
you're all III ever want"
Then why be angry?"
1T seems so underhanded, sort
Of. l said, 1T just doesn't seem
right"
To bring happiness to two peo-
ple?" he said.
"Oh David" I answered. For he
was right. l wouldn't trade David
for anything or anybody in the
world.
1t was later, as we were hav-
ing dinner that the thought came
to me. Why not arrange for Aunt
Lydia to meet some one? Aunt
Lydia was about forty-five and had
been a widow for about five years.
She must be lonely woman. Per
The Lincoln times., 1955-01-17

haps that was why she tried to
make other people happy.
David" l said. there is no
reason for Aunt Lydia to be living
alone"
But" he said. you have al
ways objected to such things"
I've got it." l said, not listen
ing to him, your boss" David
was surprised.
Mr.. Martens?"
why not?" said rushing
ahead with my plans. Couldn't
you forget something some night,
and I'll invite Aunt Lydia to din
ner, and then you can sprain your
ankle or something and Mr. Mar
tens will have to stop here. "Oh
David" l said, and l could al
ready hear the words pronouncing
Mr.. Martens and Aunt Lydia man
and wife.
Take it easy. darling" David
said, but I went to the phone and
invited Aunt Lydia to come to
dinner.
Mr.. Martens came in and David
sat there with his ankle in a white
bandage. l made the introductions
casually even though my heart was
huttering and l thought any nin-
ute David would get up and prance
across the room, even though he
had practiced hobbling for quite
some time.
When l said l had used cold COM
presses, Aunt Lydia threw her
hands up in horror and said, no,
it should have been hot Mr.. Mar
tens agreed with her and the two
went on from one subject to an
other, always in perfect accord.
A few hours later l said that
David simply had to get some rest
and I helped him from the room.
The two did not notice us. l
hugged him in my elation and
David winked
You've done It darling" he
said
Some day shall tell Aunt Lydia
Martens that / arranged for the
last laugh.

Livestock Disease
Control Work Requires
Lots Of Information

The State Farm Census con-
Quoted each January is very i'm
portant in controlling livestock
diseases according to H A. Hus-
man. inspector in charge. Bureau
of Animal Industry. The 1855
State Farm Census is now in pro-
gresS.
IN order to successfully plan
any line of disease control work it
is essential that we have the ne
cessary information enabling us to
formulate our procedures that it
might be done properly, success
fully. and economically. HuSman
says.
AS one example he points out
that should an epidemic appear
regardless of the type of disease
affecting any type Of livestock, it
is necessary to determine just how
many animals are involved. in Or
der to make the proper prepara-
tions concerning personnel, equip
ment. medication, quarantines.
publicity, and all other methods Of
control which might be indicated.
He also emphasized that infor-
nation compiled by the census was
of prime Importance III the ami
nal industry's fight against the
tick. tuberculosis in livestock, and
BrucelloSis.
Agricultural leaders throughout
the state have asked Tar Heel far
mers to cooperate in the census.
They point out that this census
provides annual county statistics
on agriculture in greater detail
and more frequently than the Fed
eral Census conducted every five
years.
