Very Important For Farmers g- To Return Marketing Cards Tobacco and peanut farmers are required by program regu lations to return their market ing cards to the local ASC coun ty office at the close of the marketing season. A. C. Griffin, chairman of the Chowan County ASC County Committee, predicts that again this year many farm ers will neglect to return their marketing card and will have their 1961 allotment reduced be cause of their neglect. : Last year, according to Grif ■fin, several producers in the state had their 1960 allotments reduced for failure to return marketing cards and othdf vio lations. These few farmers, compared with the 157,350 to bacco and peanut farmers in the state, represent a very small percentage. However, failure to [return these cards definitely 'hurts the farmers whose allot | Elementary School 1 Lunch Room Menu I Menus at the Elementary School lunch room for the week :of November 7-11 will be as , follows: , Monday: Spanish rice with !beef, beets, buttered peas, fruit ;cup, butter, corn bread, milk. ’ Tuesday: Vegetable soup, pea nut butter sandwiches, crackers, i block cake, milk, i Wednesday: Sliced ham, school ' baked rolls, green beans, pickle 'slices, potato salad, pineapple, milk, butter.

Griffin says that regulations provide that the producer must return each tobacco or peanut marketing card issued for the farm to the county office within thirty days «fter the close of the markets in the general lo cality. Many farmers, he said, put off returning their tobacco and peanut marketing cards, un til it is too late. If all farmers return their marketing cards as soon as they finish selling their 1960 crop, they will greatly facilitate the administration of a program that means much to them. If farm ers do not return their market ing cards promptly, they take a chance of losing vital acreage because of their own careless nes, Griffin said.

At the various stops will be observed turkey operation, sweet potato operation, grain drying and storage bins and hog and turkey operation. Joint committees of agricul ture and merchants are plan ning the tour and hope it will be very successful. The Chamber of Commerce feels that farmers’ problems can be best understood by actual visitation on farms.
