Corn Growers In
County May Sign
For Acre Reserve

Corn Acreage Reserve agree
ments for 1857 may now be signed
by farmers who usually produce
corn and who have 1857 "old
farm" corn allotment, according to
Lloyd Roby Chairman of the Mad
ison County Agricultural Stabili-
zation and Conservation Commit
tee.
Farmers who take part in the
Acreage Reserve for corn will sign
agreements calling for a reduction
in the farm acreage of corn below
the allotment In return for re-
ducing corn acreage, the Secretary
of Agriculture will make payments
based on the productivity of the
land put in the Reserve.
Mr.. Roby points out that the
signing of agreements is on a first
come first-serve basis. This is nee
essary since the county office can
not accept agreements which re-
quire more money than has been
allocated for the programs. If the
corn money is ali obligated before
the end of the sign-up period, the
County ASC office will keep a list
of corn producers who want TO
sign agreements. If unused funds
from other counties or States are
reallocated to the county after the
regular sign-up period, farmers
who are on the list may sign up to
the extent that money is available.
The deadline for the signing of
Acreage Reserve agreements by
producers of corn is March 8, 1857

Vehicle Stolen
From Cincinnati;
Catholic Group

West Jefferson's Police Chief
John Sharp reported that his de-
partment recovered a stolen car
before it had been reported as
missing, and the vehicle had been
driven from Cincinnati.
According to Chief Sharp, Spec
ial Patrolman Merle Dildine not
iced unusual actions of a man who
drove up and parked in front of
the Catholic Church in West Jeff
erson, and took the man to the
Police Station for Interrogation
and investigation.
During the questioning, the man
identified himself as Joseph E. Nc
Laughlin of Bay Shore New
York, and Wichita, Kansas. He
told the policemen that he had
driven a Mercury to West Jeffer-
son, and someone else had evident
ly driven it away. Later he admit
ted that he stole the car in which
he was found.
AS Chief Sharp related, the car,
a 1856 model Oldsmobile, was
stolen from Cincinnati after Nc
Laughlin had allegedly hitched
rides from Wichita.
In the questioning and investiga-
ton, Sharp noticed that the stol-
en- car records mentioned no such
license number as missing. Furth-
er checks identified it as one stol-
en-, but had not yet had time to be
listed as missing.
Ironically, the apprehended man
identified himself as a Catholic,
the car was the property of st.
Anthony's FriarS, Franciscan
Fathers, it was stolen from in
front of Catholic Church in Gin
cinnati and ran out of gas in front
of the West jefferson Catholic
Church.
Chief Sharp also reported two
minor accidents in the village but
reported only slight damages and
no injuries.
Mclaughlin has been Jail d
pending arraignment.

Beef in general is still high and
is slated to go higher. Average
prices at the retail level on choice
grades show only slight changes in
prices. Sirloin tip and round steak
are down a penny but still are
selling in most stores for over a
dollar a pound. That is why it is
a good idea to watch for weekend
