T ~ it » Edenton, North Carolina, Thursday, January 14, 1962 substituted a national poundage quota at 1,200,000 tons for 1982, 1,167,300 tons for 1983, 1,134,700 tons for 1984 and 1,100,000 tons for 1985. These annual reduc tions are to be achieved, to the extent possible, by reducing the farm poundage quotas for farms which do not produce peanuts. (USDA will issue regulations to implement this provision.) 2. The national poundage quota for each year is to be apportioned among the states on the basis of the percentage allocated to farms within each state during 1981. State poundage quotas will also be calculated for 1981, since, under legislation then in effect, such quotas were not established during that year. 3. A farm poundage quota is established for each farm which had an acreage allotment for 1981. The quota will be the same as that for the immediately preceding marketing year, with adjustments reflecting year-to-year reductions in the national and state poundage quotas. 4. Undermarketing of poundage quota beginning with the 1980 crop may be produced and marketed in subsequent years of the County Farms Agriculture and Food Act of 1981. The total un dermarketing carry for ward for one year cannot exceed 10 per cent of the national poundage quota. The previous requirement that a producer plant acreage estimated suf ficient to produce 75 per cent of the farm poundage quota has been eliminated. 5. A referendum is required by December 15th of each calendar year 1982 through 1985 of farmers producing quota peanuts to determine if farmers favor poundage quotas for the next four years. If two thirds or more of those voting vote in favor of quotas, no referendum will be held in 1982, 1983, and 1984. If less than two-thirds vote in favor of quotas, poundage quotas would not be in effect the fallowing year and no price support shall be available for such peanuts; another referendum would be held to determine whether quotas would be in effect the next year. A 1982 crop referen dum is scheduled to be held during the week of January 25, 1982. 6. Definition of additional peanuts has been expanded to include (a) any peanuts marketed from a farm for which a farm poundage quota has been established and which are in excess of the marketings of quota peanuts from the farm and (b) all peanuts marketed from a farm for which no farm poundage quota has been established. 7. Definition of crushing has been expanded to in clude the flaking of peanuts when authorized by the secretary. 8. Definition of “Domestic Edible Use” has been broadened to include “flaked” products when authorized by the Secretary; seed from unique strains not com mercially available and used to produce boiled peanuts may be exempt from the definition of “Domestic Edible Use.” 9. The transfer of farm poundage quota by sale or lease is still limited to the county except that the owner or operator may transfer such farm pound age quota to any other farm owned or controlled by the owner or operator in the same county or in a county contiguous to such county in the same state which had a SECTION B farm poundage quota in 1981. 10. Farm poundage quota in states having less than 10,000 tons of state poundage quota may be transferred from a farm in one county to a farm in another county within the same state. 11. The marketing of additional peanuts in channels other than loan or contracts with handlers for crushing or export shall be subject to a penalty of 140 per cent of the applicable quota support rate. Also, any producer who falsely indentifies or fails to certify planted acres or fails to account for the disposition of any peanuts produced on his planted acres is subject to the penalty. 12. Penalties for uni tentional errors or errors committed without the knowledge of the parties concerned may be waived or reduced by the County ASCS Committee.

Symphony Slates Local Performance The North Carolina Symphony has come to be known as the State’s “Cultural Ambassador” because it represents the State and its people to < the citizens of other states and other countries. Whenever the Symphony travels in or out of state to perform, it offers its audience a glimpse of life in North Carolina and an idea of the values of North Carolinians and their leaders. Art and beauty are shown by the Symphony to be treasures prized by North Carolinians. Livestock Show Planned Livestock Show and sale The 1982 Chowan County Junior Livestock Show and Sale will be held on April 13 at the American Legion Fair Grounds. Hogs grading U. S.

The first North Carolina Symphony concert was held on May 14, 1932 and to this day enriches the lives of North Carolina’s citizens in cities, towns and com munities throughout the State through live per formances of the high quality that only a major symphony can provide. The North Carolina Symphony is an invaluable resource and treasure to the State of North Carolina and its citizens, offering a cultural climate which only twenty-two other states can boast. It is one of only 31 major resident orchestras in America which travels and performs throughout the state. For every evening performance scheduled, a free student educational concert is given. The North Carolina Symphony exist today with a unique heritage and mission. Its rationale is quite simple: to offer the people of North Carolina the best in music and musical education, to offer the finest in entertainment and to serve as a source of pride and pleasure for all of North Carolina’s citizens.
