Vheal Farmers "
Reminded of 1955
Acreage Allotments
Talbert Sehorn, secretary of
the Jackson county Agriculture
Stabilization and Conservation
committee, today reminded
wheat growers of 1955 allot
ments and asked farmers grow
ing wheat without allotments to
report acreages to the ASC com
mittee. Sehorn said measurement of
1955 acreage will start soon and
be completed by June 1. Any
excess wheat should be disposed
of by June 15 by pasturing, cut
ting for green hay or plowing
under, he said. Excess fields will
be checked Starting June 15.
ProTisiont Told
Farmers may grow as much
as 15 acres of wheat without an
allotment, Sehorn pointed out.
But if more than 15 acres is
harvested, penalties will be im
posed on the number of acres
over the allotment or on all 16
or more acres if the grower has
no allotment.
Farmers who are interested in
price supports or the agricultural
conservation program must stay
within allotments, even if grow
ing less than 15 acres, Sehorn
said.
Albert Straus, chairman of the
committe, reminded wheat grow
ers that wheat marketing cards
were necessary to- sell wheat,
and marketing cards cannot be
obtained until after acreage has
been measured.

most of the approach work at
the south end of the new bridge
has been finished. The entire
project will be completed within
the next two months.
Plans for widening and sur

south of Dunsmuir have been
completed and will be adver

Guidance Clinic Film Draws
Interest at Showings Here
The film, "Angry Boy,"
shown by the Southern Oregon
Child Guidance Clinic associa
tion this week to two groups
brought forth much interest in
child guidance clinic work, asso
ciation officers said today.
Another film, "Childrens Emo
tions," will be available the
week of April 18 to 25 for use
of any group of 12 or more peo
ple. Arrangements can be made
to show and discuss the film by
telephoning 3-3174.
At a general meeting in the
YMCA Monday, a small group
saw the film and discussed the
meaning of anger and stealing,
the clinic's way of helping solve
the problems with the boy and
his parents, and the way the
clinic staff plan and work to
gether. In this picture the psy
chiatrist sees the boy, Tommy,
briefly in play interviews, while
the social worker talks with the
mother to help her work out her
own feelings and come to use
better ways of handling Tommy.
The clinical psychologist gave
Tommy several tests which
helped the phychiatrist to know
Tommy and his problems better.
There was also discussion about
the need for the father to come
to the clinic for help.
Roy Tibbetts, supervisor of
child welfare for the Jackson
County Public Welfare commis
sion, led the discussion of the
film.
The picture was used for the
Junior Service League's April
country club. Mrs. Jane Carpen
ter, president of the Clinic asso
ciation, led the discussion. The
league, which sponsors the Hard
of Hearing kindergarten, showed
interest in the way a clinic is
organized, how to build and
maintain clinic services, and the
way a clinic helps a child with
an emotional problem.
