Urge Early Action
On Agreements For
Acreage Reserve

The first-come, frst-served basis
will be used for accepting 1857 acre
age reserve agreements according
to Wilbur Bunke, chairman of the
Allen County Agricultural Stabiliza-
tion and Conservation committee.
The county ASC can accept corn
acreage reserve agreements calling
for payments up to the county allo-
cation. If the limit is reached before

on a waiting list.
If other counties or states have
unused funds they will be allocated
to counties where all agreements
cannot be accepted.
The amount of corn land for the
acreage reserve cannot exceed a
FARMS corn acreage allotment. With
in this limit the maximum acreage
that may be entered in the program
is 20 acres or 80 per cent of the al
lotment.

A 75-pound timber wolf was killed
by posse of Hardin county farmers
near Ada last week. The killing of
the wolf is believed to solve the
mystery of the loss of large numbers
of livestock whose half devoured
carcasses have been found on the
edge of the marsh during the past
two years. A. d. Epley fired the shot
which crippled the wolf before it was
clubbed to death by the farmers.
