SECTION TWO— Social Security Law Affects Farm People Amendment Gives Pro tection to Farmers And Workers “Farm people in Chowan County should be assured that the District Social Security office is prepared and qualified to serve them with complete information about the new changes in the Social Security law.” This is the statement of County Agent C. W.j Overman. ' Mr. Overman pointed out that the 1954 Amendments to Social Securityj give insurance protection to both farm, operators and farm workers. “The costs are low, and the benefits are great,” he said. Beginning January, 1955, persons who farm for themselves will be in cluded in Social Security if they make: as much as $400.00 a year profit from, their farming operations. Farm work ers are included if they are paid cash wages of SIOO a year or more from any one farmer. The first thing these people should do, the County Agent explained, is get Social Security cards—if they don’t already have them. The farm operator will report his own earnings at the end of each year —at the time he files his income tax,, return. The Social Security law pro vides a very simple way of doing this, —farmers won’t have to do any com- j, plicated bookkeeping. Wages of farmj , employees will be reported to the gov ernment by the person they work for., ■ J Vets’ Question Box J Q—l have a permanent GI insur ance policy which lapsed several months ago.

It is better to dig the crop as soon as the majority Os the roots arc of ■ the most desirable size. Digging should he done as carefully as possible so that there is a mini mum amount of cutting and bruising. It is often said that sweet potatoes should he handled like eggs. That is an exaggeration but it is a fact that I wherever the skin of the potato is ,bruised a hard spot will develop. AI . so, there is a chance that the potato i may rot in storage if the bruise or cut | is not properly healed, Grading should be done in the field and the potatoes i picked up in the containers in which they are to be stored. Bushel baskets and slatted crates are satisfactory storage containers. I receive pay for attending weekly meetings and going on active duty for two weeks each year. Will this pay be deducted from the monthly al jlowance I receive as a student in col lege under the Korean GI Bill? A—No. Reserve pay will not be de ducted from your GI allowance. | Neither will any other outside earn ings you may receive. Under the law, the monthly allowance for school-go [ ing veterans remains the . same, re gardless of outside income of any kind. Q —l am a “peacetime” veteran, and 1 want to get into a VA domiciliary home. One of the requirements, I un derstand. is the lack of adequate means of support. I have an income of around SIOO a month. Is that con sidered adequate? A—No. Your SIOO-a-month income! / (KENTUCKY! \ / STRAIGHT BOURBONjA j | WHISKEY/ ) j \6years old/ |i THE stag g° distilling CO.. IH 86 PROOF. THE STAGG DIST.

F. with about 85 deg. humidity. After the curing period the temperature should be allowed to drop to about 55 deg. F. for the remainder of the storage per iod. At no time should the tempera ture fall below 40 deg. F. I Sweet potatoes should not be handled during storage. Handling will pro mote rotting. If any potatoes are to bo sold, the entire containers should he removed, regraded and not put back in storage, Tobacco barns have been success fully used for storing sweet potatoes. However, they are well insulated and the temperatures must be carefully checked during cold weather. Storage houses built especially for sweet po tatoes are more efficient. Information about sweet potato storage and stor age houses may he obtained from your county agent or from the Department of Horticulture, N. C.

At the end of the endowment period, how will Ihe paid the money—in a lump sum or in monthly installments? A—- You may ohoose to receive the proceeds in either manner—lump sum or monthly installments, ranging from 36 to 240 in number.
