In* year has been set as April 30.
According to Vaughn Tugman,
chairman of the County Agricul

Committee, the National Wool Act
of 1964 authorises ASC county
offices to make Incentive payments
which will encourage an Increase
in the production of wool.
Nationally, the program 1* de

crop up to 300 million pound*.
The wool payment program pro
vide! incentive paymenti direct to
farmers which will bring the aver
age price received throughout the
Nation up to 88 percent of parity.
Under this program, farmers
market their wool through the us

marketing year, payments are made
to producer* in an amount suffi
cient to bring the average price
received throughout the Nation up
to the incentive level of 88 per
cent of parity of 62c per pound.
Under this program the farmers
who do the best job it marketing
their wool still receive the best
price for their wool including the
incentive psyment. The incentive
payment is a percentage increase
on the price the farmer receives on

'CONSERVATIVE' DEFINED
A Democratic congressman hn
come up with this definition of a
conservative: "A man who wor

As of this date 280 producers
have filed wool applications com
pared with 292 producers the same
date last year. Also 192 produc
ers have filed unahorn lamb appli

From available records it is evi
