He wants them to realize that work comes first; that life should be lived simply and frugally. He thinks expenditures for entertain- ment should be cut pretty thin ex- cept when it comes to travel. But when a Young Wheeler saves up| pennies for a trip, then Father| Wheeer plans the itinerary as en-| thusiastically as though he were go-{ ing.

Or he just ridicules us out of a plan by making us see it's silly.” Talk is the family’s greatest pleas- jure.

This general pressure distribution has ibeen attended by precipitation over Southeast Alaska and the Aleu- tians, and by generally fair weather over the remainder of Alaska. Dense fogs prevailed this morning over the Puget Sound region and northward to Alert Bay and Bull Harbor, It was colder last night over the upper Yukon Valley and over the interior of Alaska, a temperature of 18 degrees having been reported at Fairbanks at 2 a.m. [WHAT 1T PAYS FARM PRUGHAM | With that as a basis, the farmer |may expect these benefits: Is DESIGNEB Tu | He will get a bounty of about | | i | | i Robert lrwinh < s 7 o h ‘ g | y | i | | :to $1.50 an acre for his “general soil |depleting” crops, such as wheat and \rye. For 60 acres that brings $90. Department Does Not In- tend to Whip Acreage |The $1.50 an acre varies slightly {from farm to farm, depending on 5 Owners Into Line (Continued from Pdge One) farm productivity. For his owrr corn quota benefits, he will receive 10 ‘cents a bushel |For an average yield of 35 bushels, an acre on his 50-acre quota he | would receive $175. '-‘ | For his soil conservation acreage 'of alfalfa or clover, he will get 170 cents an acre, or $28 for the 40- gy {acre quota. That brings the total Federal ben- efits to $293. But if the farmer plants five acres too much corn, he will be docked five times the benefits due on five acres. On a crop of 35 |bushels an acre he would lose five times $3.50 times five, or $87.50. That is half the benefits due on his whole 50-acre corn quota. Corresponding penalties are im- posed for exceeding his quota of wheat and rye, or for falling short in his acreage of soil conservation activities. This may sound complex to the average reader, but the average farmer is used to fiddling around with quotas. AAA has taught him some bookkeeping, among other things. The Department of Agri- culture hopes that it has also taught {him compliance. | Three-Way Accident; not produce a surplus to beat down farm paices. Take corn, for instance. The 1937| planting is estimated at 96,146,000 acres. For the 1938 program, the department has estimated 92,000,000 96,000,000 acres will produce enough corn. That amount is di- vided among states. Each state’s| quota is divided among counties. Within each county a committee of farmers, usually advised by the| county agricultural agent, determ- ines the quota for each farm. If the farmer doesn’t like his quota, he can stay out. If he ac- cepts it, he gets benefits. But if a farmer steps over the line by an acre in the 1938 program, he will! lose benefit payments for several acres, Take a corn farmer with 150 acres of tillable 1dnd. The county com- mittee may assign him a quota of 50 acres of corn, which may be more but probably will be slightly less than his average planting.
