County Wheat
Support Rate
Is Announced

Richland county's 1855 price
support rate will be $1-91 pei
bushel, Chairman Anderson o,
the County Agricultural Stabili-
cation and Conservation commit
tee has announced. This rate
which applies to u. S. No. / Hard
Red Winter and Hard Red Spring
wheats, is based on the minimum
national average support price OF
ZOO per bushel.
The announced support price
in Richland county for the 1855
crop was $500 per bushel, based
on a national average support
price of $2.08 per bushel.
The announced support price
for 1855 crop wheat Is a mini
mum which will be increased If
82h percent of parity, as of the
beginning of the marketing year
July /, 1850, is more than $500
per bushel. AT present, 200 is
1877 percent of parity.
Chairman Anderson also an
nounced that premiums and dis
counts would be offered on GER
tain varieties and grades of wheat.
The varieties - Early Blackhull,
Red Chief, Chiefkan, Henry, Pre-
mier, Golden Ball and Peliss -
will all be subject to discounts
of 20 cents per bushel. These are
varieties that are undesirable be-
cause of inferior milling or bak-
ing qualities. Producers request
ing price support in 1855 will be
required to certify as to their
production or non-production of
any of these varieties. In the
event that they do not furnish
certification required to determine
If the discount should be applied,
all wheat offered for support will
be discounted 20 cents per bushel.
Premiums for acceptable va
rieties are offered at rs cents per
bushel for Hard Amber durum
and Is cents per bushel for Am
Der durum. A premium of / cent
per bushel is offered on No. /
Heavy Hard Red Spring. Protein
premiums are provided for Hard
Red Winter and for Hard Red
Spring, but no protein premium
will be paid on mixed wheat. Dis
counts, in addition to those for
the undesirable varieties, are pro-
vided for mixed wheats, Red Dur
UNI and for grades below u. S.
No. l..
To get wheat price support in
1856, a Richland county producer
must be in compliance with his
1856 wheat acreage allotment and
be eligible to receive a wheat
marketing certificate on all other
arms in the county in which he
has an interest, Mr.. Anderson
pointed out.
The 1856 crop wheat will be
supported as in the past through
loans on farm and warehouse stor-
ed wheat and through the pur-
chase of wheat delivered under
purchase agreements. Loans and
purchase agreements will be
available through January, 1857,
and will mature on March 81,

SOUTH NORFOLK, Va, Oct.
8 (R.-When an armed intruder
broke into her home while her
parents were away, 12-year-old
Mary French knew just what to
do. Daddy had told her. And,
shaking with fright, she did it.
Fleeing into an adjacent room,
Mary locked the door, took her
fathers .38-caliber pistol from
"a drawer, inserted five shells,
unlocked the door and shot the
gun-waving intruder in the leg.
He fled.
Police said the French child
was at home with several smaller
children when James Bell, "a,
colored. broke into the house
Sunday night and demanded to
know the fathers whereabouts.
Mary told him she didn't
know. then hurried into the next
room to get the pistol. Finding
Bell still around when she peeped
out the door a few minutes later
she fired twice. One shot hit the
ceiling. The other struck Bells
left leg and lodged in his right
thigh.
Bell was arrested when he
turned up at a hospital for
treatment. He was charged with
breaking and entering.
I Just did what Daddy said
do" Mary told police.
