Suggested As Pasture Crip Failures of clover and clover and timothy seeded last spring intended for pasture this year presents one of the perplexing problems facing a number of Indiana farmers, according to Purdue university soils and crops specialists. Heavy grain ‘CTOPS last year weakenedq the grass and clover seedings and the extreme heat and drouth following took an additional heavy toll. : ;

‘Where last year’s clover and grass seedings are a comiplete failure ‘oats is suggested by the Purdue men as the best crop to use for early grazing and sedan grass for mid-summer to frost. The land may be prepared by ‘digsking in most cases and the oats seedell as early as possible at the full grain rate. Clover may be seeded with the.oats where the goil is sweet enough to grow the crop. - Sudan grass ig a hot weather crop and should not be seeded until about corn planting time, driling the seed at 20 to 30 pounds per acre. It will carry more stock through the dry season and wuntil frost than any spring sown crop that we have.

$5,000 ASKED IN ACTION sSenator Warren Berkey Named Co- ' Defendant in Elkhart Complaint . Heirs of the late Isaac W. Richards Goshen Civil' war veteran have tiled action on bond in the Elkhart superior court against John W. Balyveat administrator of the estate, Wwarren Berkey Goshen attorney and the London and Lancashire Indemnity Co.

Plaintiffs in the action are Augusta Williams, Bernice Minnis, Syivia Richards, Ella Vannator, Emma Danner and Sarah Anne Guise. Because of the nature of the action, the state is brought in as nominal plaintiff.

. The complaint states that M. ißalyeat, who lives about seven miles southeast of Elkhart on U. S. road No. 20 was appointed administrator of the estate after the death of Mr. |Riichards, Feb. 7 1930. His bond, '520,000 was furnished by the London and Lancashire compmany. The Richards heirs allege that Mr, Balyeat took no active part in administration of the estate but left this in the hands of his attorney, ‘Mr. Berkey, who was a director ot the Goshen State bank, withdrew money on deposit in the City National bank of Goshen and the Salem Bank and Trust Co., Goshen and deposited "these sums in the State bank on or about Feb. 1, 1930. It is averred, also, that the Goshen attorney liquidated road bonds and other securities held in the estate depositing the money thus obtained in the State bank at about the same date The total sum deposited in the State bank and tied up by the bank’s subsequent closing is placed at $4,237.59. Through his official position in the bank the heirs charge Mr. Berkey must have been acquainted with the fact that its condition was unsound. They assert also that Mr. Balyeat knew, or should have known, what Was going on and that his permitting it constituted an act of negligence.

STILL SHORT 165 MILLIONS Need This Amount to Balance Budget Says Chairman Crisp—Additional Levies On Dividends Sought The house ways and means comm§ttee Friday voted to subject dividend payments to the normal rate of taxes raising $80,000,000 in additional reve-1 nue. e The committee took this drastic action after being informed by Secretary of Treasury Mills that the reve‘nue bill as it now stands is $165,000 000 short of balancing the budget. ~ Mills’ estimate: of a $165,000,000 ‘shortage was based largely on a revised estimate of government economies. The committee had counted on savings in federal operations of $243,000,000 but Mills now says the economies wil lamount only to $125,000,000. According to the new treasury figures the tax schedules will yield $47,000,000 less revenue than the committee estimated . This difference added to the $118,000,000 clipped off the savings’ estimate makes up the $165,000,000 shortage now computed by ‘Mills: -

‘While stating that he would propose: the addit.i,ional taxes Crip expressed confidence that the bill as it now stands wonld be sufficient to balance the budget. B He¢ added that the treasury had actually revised downward a number of its own previous estimates. This, he said, “looks a little to me as though they were playing politics.” Details of the new treasury figures were unavailable being under study of a ways and means sub-committee meeting to consider the situation. . Discussing #ills’ assertion that the house eladers were to optimistic reBarding savings to be effected 1n government operations, Crisp said ‘that “after all a large part of that responsibility is up to the executive ‘vbranch."

’ Public is Warned The public is again warned in regard to some potatoes being offered‘ as certified seed, according to W. B. Ward of the Purdue university horticultural department. Too many times purchasers disregard the safety measures taken to protect the buyer by in,ot reading the tag that comes on each sack of seed. Tags on certified seed lbear the name and address of the grower; the variety and percentage of disease present, if any, and the stamp of approval or the seal of the state in which certification takes place. Kach field eligible for certification hag been thoroughly inspected during -the growing season and only those that pass muster are so tagged and offered for sale. If inspected fields pass this rigid test they are sacked and sealeq and should reach the buyin this condition. As state certified seed can be purchased quite reasonably this year, potato growers are urged to buy good seed as it has given an average in. crease in yields in Indiana of 70 bushels per acre. Takes Own Life Charles Z. Bond 69 veteran Wabash railroad man committed suicide Sunday by shooting himself in the head. Despondency over unemployment was given as the cause.
