WILLIAMSON CASH COLLAPSES A Sangamon County Circuit Court ^'•jjjury yeatarday evening returned a verct of noi guilty in the case against iHiram L. Williamson, former state *** superintendent of printing, and Miss ipfelle A. Machin, his secretary. The • >'Jverdict was not unexpected. From its J! :_r; inception, residents of this city have looked upon ijt as a political prosecution, undertaken in eonsequence of Williamson's activity in opposition to the- Democratic state administration. The State's- case was . discredited from the beginning by the singling out of Williamson and his secretary' as conspirators, when the evidence ad- , • duced showed that the payroll manipulation was for the benefit of Attorney General Oscsu^Carl strom, who had employed this method* of paying un- - der-cover employes. Naturally enough, selection of Williamson and his secretary for indictment, prejudiced the ,9 . proceeding in the minds of prac- ' ' „ tically everyone. Spectacular methods employed - in ;,the bringing pf the indictments--the T't^'caHing'- 'of* a special aession^i^the grand jury; the sidetracking of the state's attorney and the presence of an assistant attorney general and, later, the imlportation of a widelyheralded -criminal prosecutor from Chicago; the appearance of special investigators on the scene -- all these things tended to weaken the state's position. They confirmed William- •son's assertion that he was the victim "<Sf a political frame-up. There will be' little disposition .to criticise the jury for,. Its decision. The Vegret is that the case was permitted to com£ to trial. The community doesn't relish the use of its courts in the game of politics, and it probably wiir be some time before another Sangamon county grand jury can be induced to lend itself to a" political prosecution.-- II1 inoia State Journal,. » •(.. • - * "• J 1 - • ••••• ' Mirs.

RINGWOOD McCormick - Deering Cylinder-Rake Hay Loader Combines the principles of two highly successful loaders--it picks up from either the swath or windrow. One-man loading *»• possible, thus reducing labor T | costs. The cylinder has highgrade steel teeth and is adjustable close to the ground for lacking up short hay. The teeth of the rake bars v |re timed so that t^di^ivery of hay from the cylinder exactly meets the movements of the rake bars. This loader is designed so that hay can be delivered three feet closer to therack when starting the load, a feature appreciated on windy days. The frame is steel and the solid bottom, is also steel. Thirteen roller bearings on this loader assure light draft. We would like to have you The Ringwood Useful Cooks met at the home of their leader, Olive Jepson Thursday afternoon.

Brown, Druggist. Farm Bureau News AAA MODIFICATIONS ARE EXPLAINED , Seven limitations relative to the use of both contracted and non-contracted acres have now been removed from the AAA corn-hog and wheat programs as a result of recent* modifications, Farm Adviser W. A. Herrington told the Plaindealer today. On their non-contracted acres, 500 county farmers who are cooperating in the government's adjustment programs piay now plant any feed crop, including corn and grain soK^hum, for use as pasture or forage, if it is harvested before maturity or at a time which may be designated by the Secretary of Agriculture. This4 may' be done regardless of any increase which such plantings may make in the total, feed crops or total crops harvested in excess of that originaliy permitted in the programs, v - Furthermore, any "crops planted in accordance with these provisions may be used for silage, provided the contract signer does not harvest mo:v corn for grain than originally allowed ilnder the terms of' the contract. In no ease, however, can these additionally planted crops be harvested for grain-' On McHlenry county farms where oats, wheat or harley seedings have been abandoned as a result of winter killing, chinch-bug damage or drouth, such fields may be planted to soybeans or cowpeas and the crops harvested for seed, explains Farm Ad viser W. A. Herrington. Such a procedure will not be termed as doubl ? cropping" and is not interpreted as a violation of the contracts. In the case of contracted acres, such land may now be pastured or the contract signer may cut any crop for h&y that may be growing on these acres. In4 addition, producers participating irt the AAA programs may plant the contracted acres to any crop for use as pasture or forage to b& harvested before maturity,* except field corn, sWeet corn and grain sorghum. McMenry county contract signers should bear, in mind, however, that in ho case can a crop planted on contracted acres be harvested for grain. This limitation applies to soybeans, cowpeas, field peas, sorghums and similar grains. However, the producer may harvest the seed of timothy, red top, orchard grass, bluegrass, meadow fescue, brome grass, created wh&it grass, red clover, alfalfa, sweet clover, lespedeza and like dow, crops' of McHenry county farmers cooperating in the government's corn-hog prog ratal have been further modified to permit the harvesting of common pasture and grass seeds, according to word received by Farm Adviser W, A. Herrington from the extension service of the College of Agriculture, University of Illinois. With the possibility of a forage seed shortage resulting from the severe drouth this spring, AAA officialg. have removed all restriction on the harvesting from contracted acres the Seed of timothy, red top* orchard grass, bluegrass, meadow fescue, brome. grass, ert'*fed wheat grjass, red clover, alfalfa, sWeet clover, lespedeza and similar pasture and meadow crops. Previously the restrictions oh contracted, acres had, been lifted to permit farmers to seed them to pasture hajr, and forage crops, excepting fodder corn and graiu sorghums, and to utilize these crops for hay or pasture Page Three for their own needs or for th( hay to neighbors.
