SUMMER COMPLIANCE: The
Job of measuring allotted crops
seemed to have been progress
ing satisfactorily until the rains
came. Bad weathAT is delaying
continued measurement and It
is hoped that the weather will
charite so that summer complt- "
ance can continue. Approxi
mately U00 of the 2700 farms
In the county have been meas
ured. The county office per
sonnel is busy computing
measurements and preparing
notices to be mailed to produc
ers on June 21, 1965. Notices
of Measured Acreage for 560
farms have been prepared and
of this number, 24% of the farms
show an excess . on tobacco;
15%, excels on cotton.
Producers receiving Notices
of Measured Acreage which
show excess acreage or defi
ciency In diverted acreage ire
encouraged to contact the ASCSv
Office within the prescribed
period of time as shown on the
notice.

basic provisions which all pro
ducers should be &mlllar with.
Any producer who should decide
to keep his excess acreage of
tobacco will receive no price
support on any tobacco sold In
19?5; however, those producers
who stay within their allotment
will be eligible for price sup
port. Every farm has a total
marketing quota In pounds and
the quota may be exceeded by
10% and the producer will be
eligible for price support. Any
tobacco marketed In excess of
110% of the farm's quota will
not be eligible for price support.
Any tobacco sold In excess of
the 110% of /arm's quota will
be subject to marketing quota
penalties of 44? per pound.
Any marketings about the 1965
marketing quota will be de
ducted "from the farm's quota
for 1966. If less than the
poundage quota Is marketed In
any year, . the difference will
be added to the farm's quota
for the following year. To
bacco that Is produced but not
marketed In 1965 may be car
ried over to the following year
and sold; however, carry-over
tobacco will 'be charged against
the poundage for the farm the
year It Is marketed.
The question has been asked,
"Can I sell my tobacco If I
produce more than 110% of my
farm's quota?" Yes, all to
bacco produced on a farm may
be marketed; however, as In
dicated' above, all tobacco mar
keted In excess of the 110%
of the farm's quota will be sub
ject to the penalty of 44? per
pound and no price support will
be available for the tobacco.
Also the total number of pounds
sold in* excess of the farm's
quota will be deducted the fol
lowing year. ;

Mother (to small boy who Is

what are you going to do when

Typical Flooded Field
Crops May Come Through
By G. T. Dean, Jr.
County Extension Chairman
We have observed some to
jtacc'o drowning In low places
or poorly drained fields
throughout the county. Many
farmers have been In thelivf
fields' lor the past few days 1
opening up tobacco rows and
ditches to drain off excess wa
ter and permit air to get to the
plants' roots. We believe that
If the sun doesn't get too hot
the next day or so that most
of the crop will come through
In pretty good shape.
Most fields wlH .need from
IS to 30 pounds of actual ni
trogen and. 30 to 60 pounds of
potash applied to their tobac
co to make up for the leaching
losses caused by the excess^
water. These adjustments
should be made as soon as
possible. ' __
A folder, "Guides for Fertl- I
llzlng Flue-Cured Tobacco," |
Is available at the County Agri
cultural Agent'S office fo'r use j
in figuring Individual farm fer
tilizer adjustments.
Plant diseases could become
a serious problem for tobacco
growers unless the weather
turns warmer. Cool, wet
weather encourages th$ de
velopment of such diseases as
black shank and leaf spot.
Rains have damaged the small
grain crops somewhat. Farm
ers were just beginning the
combining oj wheat. It will
take a few diys of dry weath
er before this harvest ean be
resumed. &
Corn and cotton crops seem
to be In pretty good condition;
However, extra nitrogen will be
needed for both these crops.
