Guest of the afternoon was Mrs. M.
Knorpp. Members present

Frank Ford, county agent of Arm-
strong county, last week was appoint-
ed county agent of Carson county to
succeed M. P. Learning who has been
appointed to a position in
ern region of the federal
gram organization.
Ford, who is known to
of farmers in the county, will come
to Carson county with the highest re-
commendations.
The selection of Ford followed a
meeting of county commissioners on
Monday of last week, when they ask-
ed the county agricultural committee
and Parker Hanna, district agent, to
select Learning’s successor.
Ford received his appointment from
College Station last Thursday, but it
was not learned when he will start to
work in this county.
Before going to Armstrong county
where he has been agent ror three
years, Ford was county agent in Old-
ham county and assistant agent In
Potter county.
Learning plans to leave the latter
part of the month for College Station
where he will remain for a week be-
fore going to Washington where he
will have his headquarters.
“I want to thank the people of Car-
son county for the cooperation they
have given me and will expect them
to give Ford the same cooperation,”
Learning said.
Learning, who has been agent here
since 1933, received the federal ap-
pointment after he returned from
Washington where he was during
most of January aiding In planning
the new Federal farm program.

College Station—The new AAA
Farm Bill just passed by Congress
will offer wheat farmers a well-
rounded wheat program including
acreage allotments, agricultural con-
, servation payments, wheat loans,
crop insurance, and marketing quotas
if supplies are so large that quotas
are necessary, according to George
Slaughter, chairman of the Texas
Agricultural Conservation Commit-
tee.
I The following brief summary of
how these provisions in the new farm
bill will operate for wheat farmers is
given by Slaughter.
| The Act provides for acreage allot-
ments to wheat farmers each year
[which will produce enough wheat for
. domestic consumption and exports
and provide a substantial surplus for
reserve. The Act will aim to provide
a supply each year of around 900 mil-
j lion bushels. Wheat allotments will
be made for 1938, but only for the
purpose of computing AAA payments
'to farmers. The act provides that
! compliance for 1938 shall be checked
against the general soil-depleting
goal for each farm. The first acre-
age allotments which will apply fully
wiil be those for 1939.
Payments to farmers will be made First Lady of the Land make your
under the provisions of the 1938 Ag- reservations now to avoid disappoint-
ricultural Conservation F
The Act also provides for parity pay-
ments to farmers, but only if specif-
ic additional funds are made avail-
able for this purpose.
| The Act provides that wheat loans
are to be made to farmers in any
year in which the farm price of wheat
on June 15 is less than 52 per cent
of the parity price of wheat, or in
any year in which the July wheat
estimate is more than the normal
domestic consumption and exports of
about 700 million bushels. These
loans are to be made by the Com-
modity Credit Corporation and are to
be made at between 52 and 75 per
cent of the parity price at the begin- as, while for the country as a whole

tuberculosis.
i Tuberculosis has been known
centuries and constant search for
specific cure has been the goal
doctors for many years. However,
no medicine, yet discovered, will cure
this disease. The treatment consists
of rest, proper food, fresh air and
proper medical supervision.
The greatest loss of life from this
disease is between the ages 20 to 40
years, and its economic cost to fam-
