Cotton Producers mk Referendum iDfifiecemberllth Vote on Continuation Os Marketing Quotas ;; During 1957 C On December 11, Tar Heel farm ers who planted cotton in 1956 will vjrtd In a referendum to determine whether marketing quotas will be in operation for their 1957 crop. H. D. Godfrey, Administrative Of ficer, for the Agricultural Stabili zation and Conservation State Com mittee explained that if two-thirds or more of the producers voting in the referendum on the 11th approve qjtotas they will continue in effect. it more than one-third disapprove b{ilqtas they will not be in effect, ijowever, acreage allotments will remain in effect as a condition of eligibility for price support. # !4 Acreage allotments and market ing quotas for 1957 will be based on-'North Carolina’s 1957 State al lotment of 479,083 acres. An ad ditional apportionment has been mad« *to North Carolina from the National Reserve of 13,784 acres. Godfrey explained that this appor tionment ihay be used only to pro tide minimum farm allotments of of four acres or the highest number of acres planted to iottph in any one of the years 1954, iMS.or 1956. The ■ requirement that minimum allotments be established for 1957 wfif materially affect many indi yjdpai farm allotments in North Carolina. During the past two sreirs, individual farm cotton al lotments have been based on the ZViprage of the past 3 years’ plant- Ihgs of cotton with all farms re ceiving the same per cent reduction fthm past plantings except for ad justments by local committees. The tytablishment of minimum allot ments for 1957 will mean that many small farms will receive al lotments equal to, and in some in stances in excess of their average while larger farms will receive a proportionate acreage cut to offset non-reduction on small farms. The 1957 state allotment jfor North Carolina, Godfrey ex plained, including the additional Ipportionment for small farm al lotments is 492,877 acres. Tlhe National allotment was ap portioned to states on the basis of the acreage planted to cotton dur ing the years 1951-1955 with ad justments in such acreage as re quired by law. In add! ion to that, alt- state allotments were required the Agricultural Act of 1956 to equal a minimum of 99 per cent of thfc 1956 state allotment. Thd. original allotment to North Caroliha of 479,093 acres will be Apportioned to counties on the ba sis of cotton planted during the Same period 1951-1955. Godfrey YEARS [OLD *.

He called to the Waiter. “Didn’t you hear me say, ‘well j done’?”, he complained. The waiter ignored the rare j steak and replied,. “Yes, sir! Thank you very much, j sir. It’s seldom we get any thanks, j sir.” Appreciation is the easiest gift to j give, and the most seldom given.; Appreciation is the l°ast expensive | gift we can offer, and we hug i: closer than a costly diamond. Ap- j preciation is the most wanted word,, further explained that county al- . lotments will be apportioned to j farms on which cotton has been planted or regarded as having been I planted in any one of the three j years—l9s4-1955-1956.

Speed over cool 1 water creates a cold wind, so the ! slower, small-qiotored outfit comes into its own in the fall. Particu larly fine when it's cooler are the shelter hoats--the cabin cruisers, the sedans and convertible run abouts. Plastic windshields are a big help in the fall, and good converti i ble tops are available for the | sportsman who wants to add one to his open utility or runabout. There are many tricks to make ! cool-weather boating safer and more comfortable. For any ex tended open-water trip, take a port able radio so you can get the lat est weather forecasts. Clothes ! should be warm, with a windbreak er worn outside. A life jacket— ! the new form-fitting water-ski type i—is perfect for fall boating. Worn under the windbreaker, it makes wonderful insulation and it will still do the same job of keeping the wearer up should he go overboard. A light portable stove aboard is perfect for brewing hot coffee or soup. One place tricks are not in order is with the motor.
