PAGE FIVE E ADJUSTING PLAN County Agent Says Cash Benefit Can Be Hastened by Preparation of Indi vidual Data On Production With preliminary organization of the wheat adjustment plan rapidly taking; shape tn thla county, wheat growers are In a position to hasten its completion and expedite the first cash benefit payments by preparing their own individual records of wheat production in recent years, says R. O. Fowler, county agent. A preliminary committee, working with the county agent, has now di vided the county Into six communi ties, as required under the organiza tion setup. These communities are: Ashland, Talent, Medford. Applegate. Central Point, Sams Valley. Any wheat growers In other communities will gain with the one named near est to them. Organization Next. The next step will be to organize these communities and receive through them the applications of growers for their individual allot ments. This will require submission and inspection of past production data. In this way the individual farmer can help himself and his neighbors by having the Information In good shape in advance, explained County Agent Fowler. By use of threshing machine rec ords, sales records, warehouse receipts or other sources of Information, such as testimonials by neighbors, each grower is to figure out not only his acreage but his production for the past three yeArs at least, and prefer ably for five years. That means first of all for the crop years 1930. 1931 and 1933, and if possible for the years 1929 and 1928 as well. Should Have Figures. While the national plan calls for basing individual allotments on a percentage of the past three years' crops, requests were made from the west that four years be used as the base in summer fallow territory. In dications are that tn some Instances, four or even five years may be used, hence the advisability of every farm er being prepared with all such pro duction Information before the com munity groups get together. Once the individual grower's past average acreage production are deter mined and accepted, the assignment of an allotment will be a compara tively simple matter, as It Is fixed at 45 per cent of the average annual production unless crop failure or 'other special circumstances during the base period, make some adjustments necessary. Similarly, his total acreage to be allowed will be easy to arrive at by applying the percentage reduction, to be announced by Secretary Wallace, to his average acreage. Any varia tion in the acreage reduction up to the maximum of 20 per cent will have nothing to do with the individual allotment of bushels on which ad justment payments will be made. Jackson Interested. Jackson county, with a total aver age annual production of 233,840 bushels, according to government figures, has a real "stake" in the suc cess of the wheat plan, first results of which will he cash payments be ginning this fall. The county ha. been given an allotment of 121,031 bushels, which means that this amount times 20 cents, rr $24,204 la the amount of cash available this fall If all wheat growers In the coun ty joined the plan. In addition, from $10,000 to $12,000 will he forthcom ing next spring, depending on the exact payment, announced as from 8 to 10 cents a bushel. The adjust ment payments In the 1934 and 193S marketing years may be more or less, depending upon circumstances and the decision of the secretary of agriculture. Some have asked whether the gov ernment will make the total benefit payments to thla county regardless of how many farmers Join the plan. This is not the case, says County Agent Fowler, as the ruling la plain that no Individual gets more than his fixed proportionate share. Cash for any "unused" allotments here will not come to the county at all, but presumably will stay In the United States -treasury. WOMAN HELD IN MISSISSIPPI DEATH I ' It f - :0M V AT They are getting ready to do big things over In Jacksonville Saturday, when the second annual Gold Rush Jubilee 'busts" loose for one day. They also are getting ready to do a few things that won't be noted for their gigantic proportions, but which nevertheless will be a lot of fun. Jubilee officials baited their hooks or, rather, pens lor a pig to be greased and chased about town. A fat porker, with no prominent ribs for hand-holds. Is being sought and will be promptly turned over to Bar ber Charlie Dorothy for tonsorlal adornment. The adornment will in reality be similar to dressing a chick en, for the pig will emerge as clean shaven and sleek as the city's slick est beau brummel on court in' night Although It la somewhat of a task to dewhlsker a squealing pig prepar atory to slopping on grease, the re sult Is well worth the effort when crowds howl their delight at seeing some ambitious hog-catcher get fool ed, believe Jacksonvlllians, and a special barrage of 14 sharp razors has been laid. Of course, catching a greased pig won t be the only event of Jubilee day. Far from it. But the Incident serves as a good example of the very informal, free-for-all whoopee that will be concocted for visitors. There will be nearly a hundred races, con tests and prizes for all winners throughout the day, starting at 10 o'clock in the morning and continu ing till the old-fashioned parade at 5:30. All events will be free. At 10 a. m. the highly touted Gold Hlll-Jacluonvllle Miners baseball will start, with - rodeo following at 1 o'clock. Wrestling In the outdoor arena begins at 8 p. m., while three dances old-time and popular fol low Immediately afterward. TOT PLUNGES TO DEATH FROM UPPER WINDOW SALEM.

Every trip, I underwent severe headaches ner vousness, and sleeplessnes. Tried all sorts of remedies, and received only temporary relief. "So hearing about Kellogg's Ali, Bran thought I would get a bc, which I did. That was six months ago, haven't been without it at home, and when I go to sea a box of Kellogg's All-Bran is always with me." George D. Darragh, 1914 32nd Avenue, Oakland, California. Tests show All-Bran contains two things for common constipa tion: "Bulk" to exercise the intes tines; vitamin B to help tone the intestinal tract. All-Bran also supplies iron for the blood. The "bulk" in All-Bran is much like that of lettuce. Inside the body, it forms a soft mass, which gently clears the intestines of wastes. How much pleasanter this is than taking pills and drugs so often harmful. Two tablespoonfuls of All-Bran daily will correct most types of constipation. If not re lieved this way, see your doctor.
