ing crop base for the 19.16 program

officials have supplied each coun
ty with Its final base figures. From
these Individual applications can
now go forward with little delay.
Significant among the chanees
in the 1937 prngrum Is provision

to corn. This Is to be accomplished
hy setting an acreage quota for
each farm which comes under the
soil conservation provisions of the
new program. National AAA offi
cials announced that this is need

getting far out of line under the
stimulus ot high prices which fol
lowed last year's extremely short

ing up to the state fair hoard
