, Disabled farmers could have
applied for social security dis
ability protection as early as
October 1959 provided they
have been continuously self-em
ployed beginning with 1955.
Farmers who have been self-em
ployed since 1965 will have ac
quired their twentieth quarter
of coverage in October 1959.
The law requires that they have
20 quarters of coverage out of
the last ten years to qualify for
either the disability freeze or
disability payments.
The disability freeze may be
established for disabled farmers
under age 50, while monthly
payments may be made to dis
abled farmers who are age 50
or over.
No payment, however, may be
~ made to a {disabled farmer dur
; ing a six-month period follow
ing the month in which he be
came insured (acquired the
twentieth quarter of coverage),
nor during' a six-month period
following the month of the on
set of the disability.
The six-month period follow

’ completion of the insured stand
r
i ing, is considered a waiting pe
riod during which the farmer
i may establish that he is so se
verely disabled that he is un.Bible
to perform any substantial gain
ful activity.
Since a disabled farmer may
not receive payments for six
months following the month he
became insured, or disabled,
April 1960, will be the first
month for which a check is due.
He will actually receive pay
ment for April in early May,
because monthly benefits are not
paid until the month has ended.
Even though payment cannot
be made until next May at the
earliest, a disabled farmer should
not delay checking on his rights.
Social security offices can give
better service now than during!
the heavy claims-filing period!
which normally begins in Janu
ary. The next article in this
series will explain how a dis
ability is medically determined.
| (1.9 miles of laterals and 0.3,
| miles extension of the main
channel), 5.1 miles of enlarge
ment, and 1.7 miles of clearing
and snagging of present chan
nels. Other installations include
the building of a roadbed beside
I the channels for maintenance and
the installation of culverts. Con
tractors interested in this pro
ject should contact I. S. Blaneh
. ard, Route 2, Edenton, when the
contract is ready. More later on
this project.
New District Cooperators

trict cooperators by signing
agreements with the Albemarle

Byrum (two farms), David Lee
Hollowed, J. Elton Jordan (two
