County's 1941 Cotton Allotment Is Made Fanners of Martin County have | been allotted 6,747 acres on which to grow cotton in 1V41. This com pares with the county's 1940 cotton allotment of 6.761 acres. In announcing the 1941 cotton al lotment, E. Y. Floyd, AAA execu- ' tive officer of N. C. State College, said that the variation in the allot ments for the two years is due to a correction of data on the acreage planted to cotton in the county in prior years; this data being the bas is for determining county and in dividual farm allotments. The county allotments arc appor tioned by the Secretary of Agricul ture from the State allotment, which for 1941 is 975,284.2 acres. The 1940 North Carolina cotton allotment was 979,543.7 acres. In addition to the State allotment for next year of 975. 284.2 acres, there is available 7,555 acres for new growers. This com pares with 16,017 acres made avail able for new growers in addition to the 1940 State allotment. Individual allotments to growers are approximately the same for 1941 as they were in 1940 ' All growers have already received a notice of their farm acreage allotment for next year. r Floyd explained that differences!' in 1941 and 1940 allotments can be > attributed to: (1) The variation in ' r the oounty allotment; or (2) a change fa in the amount of cultivated land in the county, since the amount of crop | * land on an individual farm is a de- v terminirtfe factor in establishing al lotments for farms wtih allotments of five acres or more. Floyd further explained that a farmer's allotment may vary even though his crop land 1 c Taxes PAYABLE AT PAR During December INTEREST RATE OF ONE PER CENT PER MONTH WILL BEGIN IN JANUARY Save Money PAY YOUR TAXES NOW!

More Protection Is Needed Bv Farmer A survey of leading opinion indi cates a growing need for more ade quate safeguards 10 protect the far mers as a result of economic dislo cations. Reports from most quarters show that the economic outlook for the farmers portends a drop in in come unless effective measures are adopted. Chester C. Davis, agricul tural commission on the National De fense Advisory Commission, stated recently: - ?? ?. "There can be no lasting benefit to American agriculture from any war anywhere. The headaches far mers suffered as a result of the First World War are too well remembered and too close to us, for any thinking person to believe otherwise. We all know that regardless of who wins the war, or how well we arm, American farmers are going to be in a tight squeeze." He added that despite expectations that war would cause a marked rise in demand for our farm products, there is nothing to back up such wishful thinking. "Those who have been predicting a powerful war export demand for our farm products," he said, "rea son from the experiences of the last World War. It happened then; there fore it will happen now. But there is a vast difference between condi tions then and now." In discussing the effects of con scription upon farm markets, the Department of Agriculture states that the "per capita consumption of food in the Army is said to be about 40 per cent greater than in civilian life." Though "an army travels on its stomach," the department con cludes, however, that any such in creased army consumption can be "of little importance in total food consumption." ^ Demonalration Poultry Flock a Net (wood Income Recently completed records show that during the past 12 months the average net income of 12 Cherokee County demonstration puoltry flocks was $458.88 per flock, reports Farm Agent A.
