Cotton Producers
Urged To Protect
Their Allotment
Do you desire to maintain your
cotton history- and allotment?
This, according to George. Bell-
mon. Perquimans County ASC
Omce Manager is an important
question Which every farmer
should ask himself within the
next few weeks.
' Farm cotton allotments will
be reduced , where the farmer
fails to plant at least 75 of his
allotment or where he fails to
release bis "allotment to the ASC
County Committee. For farmers
who pan to plant their allotment,
no action is needed. However,
where the farmer knows that he
i will not plant 75 per cent of his
allotment, he can help himself
and at the same time help other
farmers in the county by releas
ing this allotment for reapporr
tionment. If the cotton allot
ment is released to the county
committee, this preserves not
only the . individual ' farmer's
planting history, but the plant
ing history of the county and
the state. This ' prevents loss of
allotment to individual counties
and to the State of North Caroi
Una.-.,
, Bellmon : Urged farmers who.. .
know now, that ' their allotment
wili not be planted to visit their
local ASC office and 'preserve
their, history by releasing, their
