If they do not approve poundage quotas there will be no price support and no penalties: The peanut price support program, through poundage quotas, limits the number of pounds of peanuts that can be marketed by producers for domestic edible uses. Hie national poundage quota for 1982 is 1.2 million tons, according to ASC official H. 0. West. The Agriculture and Food Act of 1981 eliminates the traditional peanut acreage allotment system. “This means that any person can grow peanuts anywhere in the country and market the peanuts for other than domestic edible use,” West said. Under previous programs, production was limited to farms with an allotment. The program will continue to have two price support levels, one for quota peanuts and another lower level for additional peanuts. The price support level for quota peanuts grown within farm poundage quotas will be a minimum of 27.5 cents per pound ($550 per ton) for 1982-1985 crops. West said the 1982 level to be established by the Secretary of Agriculture will be based on cost of production, in cluding land cost, with annual increases beginning in 1983 to reflect the national average production cost increases excluding in creases in cost of land. The maximum annual increase allowed for the quota peanut support level is 6 per cent.

If you or your child has a “lazy eye” he’s one of three million others in the U. S. who have a condition that needs help from an eye specialist. Called amblyopia, this is a dimness in one eye caused by a muscle imbalance, refractive error or some other defect. Sometimes it’s there when a baby is born, or it may develop later. The eye is “lazy” because it won’t work the way it’s supposed to. Sometimes parents aren’t aware of the condition in its earliest stages But the child is. He’s seeing a double image instead of a single one. When he can’t get the two images to come together, he Dunn Reveals Closing With the onset of hard winter possibly bringing freezing reins, sleet, snow, icy roads and mechanical heat failures, there will no doubt be some days when it will be necessary to delay the opening of schools in the morning, release school early in the afternoon or close the schools all together. School Superintendent John Dunn requests that parents having questioning concerning the status of delay, dismissal, or closing adhere to the following ground rules that will make emergency situations less confusing for everyone: Stay tuned to the named radio and television stations which will carry the official word of all Edenton- may unconsciously stop using the weak eye and only use the strong one. If he falls into this habit (and who can blame him?) he may gradually lose the vision in the weak eye. Or it will fail to develop the way it’s supposed to. If your child has si" "lazy eye'* don’t put off treatment. > Make an appointment with your eye specialist now. The younger the child, the better the cure rate.

Calling ties up telephone lines, making it impossible for the ad ministration to get word to stations or to handle emergency situations that may arise. These rules apply in all situations of adverse weather conditions, in cluding those which develop after schools are in session for the day. Parents should plan ahead with their children to be sure they know what to do or where to go if schools end early.

He has help from the Department of Pupil Transportation in gathering information. In addition, local staff members often spot check bus routes in cars for a first hand look at road and other conditions. There may be times when all information proves to be wrong and the decision to open or close seems to be a bad one. “But,” Dr. Dunn said, “when there is any question, the safety of the children will come first.”
