in which he admittedly has an interest agricultural industry is going to be on
| a saner and sounder and a firmer
foundation than it has ever been be-
fore. No problem has ever been solved
by anyone by running away from it.
This is what agriculture has been do-
ing all these years.
Now that the problem must be faced
the fault will be discovered and cor-
rected and because it will be corrected
a new day is dawning for agriculture
' and the farm.
i New land frontiers are gone, it is
farm industry its rightful place in
the.sun with other industries. Instead
of forever running from its problems
it is going to stand on its heels, look
the world in the face and fight for its
rightful reward.
These new frontiers are going to
be found on the farms themselves.
They are going to come in the form
of better management, of a more in-
telligent study of the industry and its
problems, in soil and water conser-
vation, in a program of production
balanced to consumption, in the de-
velopment of foreign markets and in
the wider use of farm products in in-
dustry.
These things, I think, are the new
frontiers of the farm industry. In my j
opinion they hold greater possibilities i
for the future than the old frontiers |
ever held. Their possibilities are limit-
ed only by the measure of human in-
telligence applied. They promise a
new day, a safer and a more secure
day for agriculture. They are going to
open up ever new and ever more pro-

But in my opinion there has come in
place of these, new frontiers, frontiers
... that hold even greater possibilities

ance or in such a manner as to tend
to defeat the purposes of the pro-
gram. A producer is considered as
participating in such production if he
furnishes machinery, workstock, or
financial aid for the production of the
crop and has an interest in the crop.
Under the AAA regulations, either
the county committee with the ap-
proval of the state committee or the
state committee itself can withold

Western Frontiers
Have Disappeared
Fifty and a hundred years ago
when agriculture became starved out i
in one section because of increasing ■
taxes and depleted soil fertility, to pull
up stakes load the possessions into a
covered wagon and move west into a
new country.
Here new claims were staked out,
new homes and schools built anci new
settlemqnts opened up. After a time
the problem repeated itself and the
children and grandchildren of the
pioneer followed the practice of their
I fathers and grandfathers and in turn
j loaded the family possessions into a
‘covered wagon, pulled up stakes, bid
;goodby to friends and journey farther
j west where the routine of their fathers
, and grandfathers was repeated. When
I they reached the Pacific ocean there
remained no more frontiers, no new
.land where new homes might be built.
I Agricuture was then on its own. No
■ longer could it run away from its
problems. It had to stay and face them
| and solve them. That is what is tak-
ing place today.
' This solving of agricultures pro-
blems is not going to be easy. There
is nothing simple about it. The solution
is not going to be worked out in a day
or a week. It is going to require years
to accomplish it.
The problem is a serious one but by

NOTICE—Obituaries and poetry are
published in this paper at the rate

Stories of deaths and funerals

news value are not rated as obitu-
aries.
Requirement by a landlord that a
tenant or sharecropper to pay, in ad-
dition to the customary rental, a sum
of money equivalent to all or a por-
tion of the government payment.
Intentionally depriving or attempt-
ing to deprive any landlord, tenant or
sharecropper of payments by ommis-
sion of names on an application for
payment form or any other official
document required to be filed in con-
nection with the program; showing
incorrectly his or their acreage shares
of crops or unit shares of soil-build-
ing practices; or otherwise falsifying
the record.
Requirements that a landlord that a
tenant execute an assignment asten-
sibly covering advances of money or
supplies to make a current crop but
actually for a purpose not permitted
by the regulations.
Offsetting compliance on a farm or
farms operated by a producer as an
individual by operations of a partner-
ship association, estate, corporation,
trust, or other business enterprise in
which the producer is financially in-
terested and the policies of which he
is in a position to control. On the othei-
hand, if such a business entity carries
on its operations so as to qualify for
payment but an individual producer
interested in the business offsets its
performance by individual operations,
the payments to the business entity
shall be reduced by such an amount as
the state committee finds is commen-
surate with the individual’s interest.
Three other practices, according to
the committee, will result in deduc-
tions from the payments to a pro-
ducer :
Offsetting compliance in one state
by operations in 'another state.
Renting land for cash or for stand-
ing or fixed rent to another person
who the producer knows or has good
reason to believe intends to offset the
producer’s performance by subsstanti-
ally overplanting the acreage allot-
ment for the farm which includes the
rented land.

vidual, firm or corporation, that may
appear in the columns of The News
