The vote was 85 to 8 for the approval of the measure which is expected to raise from $2,000,000 to $2,500,000 a year. It now goes to the Senate where it is expected to be put on its passage the first part of next week. The bill would levy a 3 per cent tax on corporation incomes and a graduated tax of from 2 to 5 per cent on individual incomes. Before approval the measure all amendments were rejected that were not accepted to the sponsors of the bill. Personal income of single and of married persons up to $2,000, with higher percentages in the upper barracks. Sales Tax Discussed Representatives of the State Retail Merchants Association appealed before the Committee on taxation No. 1 to discuss the sales tax pro- posed by the interim committee, Reed Emery, Louisville, president of the association, was the principal speaker. He said, "The reason the merchants are here is to plead with the Legislature of Kentucky against the sales tax bill. They firmly and sincerely believe that if this bill passes it will be the greatest blow to retailing that has ever happened to any business in Kentucky."

The group included resentatives from Webster, Henderson and Union counties. Prof. Baker of Kentucky University, Mr. Kennard of Sugar Cheek Creamery, Evansville, Mr. Bennett of Evansville Pure Milk Co., and Mr. Brown of Swift and Co., Evansville, were present and addressed the meeting. The theme of the meeting was improvement in the quality of cream through improved methods of handling. Especial stress was laid on sanitation in the handling of cream both by local buyers and by markets of the cream. Attention was called to the regulation prohibiting receiving cream in molasses buckets or any container that can not be thorough cleaned and sterilized. Marketers of cream are urged to use regular cream buckets or cans. It was also urged that cream be marketed not older than four days and that it be cooled and cared for according to instructions that will be given at the receiving stations. The idea it was explained, is to improve the quality of cream and thus insure a price of real benefit to the producer.

Letter To Weed Growers Copy of a letter from County Agents Ridley to farmers who have signed the tobacco reduction plan will be found on page three of this paper. LETTER FOLLOWS: COUNTY AGENT'S LETTER TO TOBACCO SIGNERS Tobacco growers who have signed tobacco production adjustment contracts have recently asked many questions about what would constitute satisfactory compliance with the terms of their tobacco contract. In order that you may know some of the things that will be expected of you as a contract signer, I am pointing out a few important requirements that will effect your compliance with the tobacco production program 1. The acreage planted to tobacco in 1934 must not exceed your allotted acreage. Your tobacco fields should therefore be accurately measured. 2. The marketing of tobacco from your 1934 crop also must exceed your production allotment. If there is an excess of production above your allotment you agree to dispose of it at the direction of the Secretary of Agriculture. 3. The number of acres rented to the Secretary of Agriculture must be not less than that indicted in your contract. These rented acres should be accurately measured and marked with stakes or otherwise in order to indicate easily the particular area rented to the Secretary. The rented acres may be left idle or planted in soil-improving or erosion- preventing crops, or to forest trees, or to pasture. They will be considered as planted to "soil-improving or erosion-preventing crops" if planted to such crops as bluegrass, orchard grass, red top, timothy, meadow fescue, red clover, alsike clover, white clover, alfalfa, sweet clover, lespedeza or mixture there of, or any soy beans, cow peas, field peas, or vetch, provided such crops and or accompanying nurse crops are used only for plowing under, or are allowed to remain entirely on the land. The rented acres will be considered "plant to pasture" if planted to blue grass, orchard grass, red top, timothy, meadow fescue, red clover, alsike clover, white clover, mixture thereof with a nurse crop. The rented acres may be grazed only by work stock and other stock whose products will be consumed on the farm. In no event may any livestock (or livestock products) for sale be produced on them. One-half the rented acres may be planted to food crops for home consumption on the farm, or to feed crops for livestock (or livestock products) for home consumption or use on the farm. In on event shall any crop be harvested for sale from the rented acres. If no crops are grown on the rented acres for home consumption or farm use, then all of the rented acres may be planted in pasture, as provided for above. But if crops are grown on any part of them for home consumption or farm use, then at least one-half of the rented acres may be used neither for grazing nor growing crops to be harvested. Land occupied by established pasture crops, such as blue grass, may be included as rented acres, provided such land is cleared, tillable, suited to the growth of tobacco and fairly representative of the tobacco land on your farm. Administrative Ruling No. 5 of the tobacco Section, provides that the rented acres of 1934 may be released from the terms of your contact in 1934 for the purpose of planting crops to be harvested on 1935 on any date after the harvesting of the 1934 tobacco crop. 4. You agree on paragraph 8 of the contract not to plant for sale an acreage in excess of that of 1932 or 1933, whichever is larger, of the following, wheat, field corn, or cotton. You also agree not to increase the number of hogs kept for sale. The number of feeder hogs purchased in 1934 plus the number of pigs raised, should not exceed the total number of hogs kept for sale in 1932 or 1933, whichever is larger. You further agree not to increase the number of dairy cows purchasing milk or its products during 1932 or 1933 whichever is larger. These limits on hogs and dairy cattle follow the producer and not the land contracts. The Agricultural Adjustment Administration has ruled that farmers who sign production adjustment contracts before June 1, 1934, do not need to hold production of the newly created basic commodities of beef cattle, barley, flax, grain, sorghums, peanuts and rye: within the production of 1932 or 1933 to establishing compliance in 1934. You must observe the restrictions on these basic commodities, as provided for in paragraph 8 of you contract, in establishing compliance in 1935. 5. You future agree in paragraph 8 of your tobacco contract that the total acreage planted to crops to be harvested on your farm in 1934 plus the rented acre shall not be greater than the acreage so planted in 1933 plus the rented acres shall not be greater tan the 1932 or 1933, whichever is larger, (this provision will not affect your rights to harvest crops for home consumption or use on the farm from rented acres as discussed in (3) above.) 6. Your attention is also called to paragraph 13 of your tobacco contract in which you agree not to reduce the number of share tenants or share croppers engaged in growing tobacco on 1933, because of the reduction in tobacco acreage and tobacco products or because of other provision of the contract. The provision applies to all share tenants and share croppers whether living on your farm or not, who drive a substantial portion of their income from tobacco which they grow on your farm. Paragraph 23 of your contract provides that the adjustment payments shall be divided between the land and the tenants who grow the tobacco on a farm in the same proportion as they share in the net market value of the tobacco grown on the farm. The procedure for designating the trustee to receive and distribute these partnership payments will be announced later. A careful study of the above suggestions and your contract will greatly assist you in understanding what the Agricultural Adjustments Administration expects of you in return for the benefit payments that you receive. I suggest that you file this for future reference. Yours Very truly, R. D. Ridley. County Agent.

The rural mail carriers convention of the Second district will be held May 30, at the city building, Central City, Ky. All carriers and their wives are invited to attend. An enjoyable program is being planned. TO DISTRIBUTE AAA FARM BOOKS The Agricultural Adjustment Administration record books are now available to farmers signing contracts to reduce products on. They will be explained and distributed at a special neighborhood meeting arranged by county agents and county control committees. The purpose of the AAA record book is to assist farmers in establishing proof of compliance with provisions of adjustment contracts, provide information for future contracts, to help develop long time farming programs and to assist farmers in analyzing their business. The AAA book was not designed to replace the Kentucky Farm Account Book of the farm economics department of the College of Agriculture, University of Kentucky. Although the AAA record enables farmers to figure the net increase from each main enterprise it does not provide for determining profit or loss for the whole farm business. This is provided in the Kentucky Farm Account Book and should be the goal in keeping records. County farm agents have information about AAA and the Kentucky farm account books and will be glad to explain them and to assist farmers in using them. Every farmer should keep one of the other of these record books. The College of Agriculture offers a complete service to farmers in planning their business and analyzing their records at the end of the year. LEPEDEZA O. K. FOR CONTRACTED ACRES Although the season is late, Lorean lepedeza may still be sowed in May and give good pasture this summer and fall, says Prof. E. I. Kinney of the Collage of Agriculture University of Kentucky, in discussing the crops to grow in land removing from corn, tobacco, wheat or cotton products on. A special seed bed should be prepared and the seed should be harrowed in. If the weather is dry, it may be a good idea to run over the ground with a cultipacker after seeding. Fifteen to twenty pounds of seed to the acre should be sowed now, in order to give a thick stand which will make good grazing this year. Sowing thick Koran lespedeza should give good pasture from about the middle of July until killed by frost in the late fall and reseed itself naturally. A much smaller amount of seed may be used where it is not planned to pasture the field this year. Five pounds of seed to the acre sowed this spring will give a heavy stand next year from natural reseeding. If the field is to remain in pasture, Prof. Kinney advised adding grass seed next fall or winter. Lespedeza by it self does not make a satisfactory crop, but with grasses and lespedeza together are very satisfactory, he said. THE FARM AND HOME (Kentucky Agricultural Experiment Station) Sell or confine risers as soon as the hatching season is over. Fertile eggs become unfit for food much more quickly on warm weather than infertile eggs. Therefore, if roosters are not wanted for the next year, sell them at once. Grapes should be sprayed to control black rot and mildew when the new growth is about one inch long. A Bordeaux mixture is used. See a county agent for instructions, or ask Collage of Agriculture for leaflet No. 11. Two much pressure or to long applications on the iron may give shiny results in pressing clothes. Place a light weight damp cloth on the garment and then cover with a heavier dry cloth. Apply hot iron lightly. No practical means have been found to remove "off flavor" in milk, caused by cows eating wild onions or other weeds. If the weeds cannot be eradicated, then the cows should be taken off grazing at least six hours before milk time. Prices advanced on beef cattle, lamb, live chickens, horses, mules, hay, cottonseed and apples during the month ending April 15. They declined on hogs, cotton, veil calves, sheep, poultry and poultry products, potatoes and all grain except corn. OWENSBORO MADE DISTRICT OFFICE FOR RE-EMPLOYMENT David A.
