the Administration as minimums for
entering in* • tiio corn-hog contracts,
though a firmer who has ten acres of
corn and no hogs, or one raising three
litters ot pigs but growing no corn
can sign a contract and receive corn
reduction benefit or the hog reduc
tion benefit according to which he
has, F. M. Regenbrooht, Fxtension
Swine Specialist in charge of corn-

Hi • the itiling is that v farmer
who grows above the minimum of
both corn and hogs must sign a con
tract to reduce both before he can

intr a contract does a farino' obligate
himself to grow a least 7.ri per
as many hogs and as much corn as
he grew in 1032 and 1033?" Mr.
Regenbrecht replied that the Admin-
istration had ruled that it was not
necessary for a farmer to produce 75

PIONEER HOMES
GAIN RECOGNITION
THRU LOCAL WRITER
The Sunday Edition of the San
Antonio Express, January 7, carried
an unusually interesting and enlight-
ening article on Bastrop's old homes,
written by Miss Belle Jones.
The article is accompanied by pic-
tures of a number of pioneer homes,
among which wore the Cocheron
home, now occupied b> Howard Jen-
kins; the Taylor home, now 'ho re-
sidence of Mrs. R. B. Wilkes; the J.
C. Iliggins home where S. J C. Hig-
gins lives; the home of Colonel Thos.
C. Moore, now occupied by Mrs.
Vesfca Jones; the home built by Gov.
Joseph IV Sayers and known as the
George Perkins plnco; and the Tom
Osborn place near Bastrop which was
formerly the home of Col. Wash
Jones.
In connection with the descriptions
of these historic old dwellings, Miss
Jones has added valuable bits of his-
tory of Bastrop's pioneer families,
many of whom were prominent in
state and national affairs in their
day, and all of whom made Texas
history.
