GATHERING THE
MARKET QUOTAS
BROWN'S OFFICE IS WORK
ING RAPIDLY TOWARD AS-1
i
SEMULING FIGURES TO BE
ISSUED SOON FARMERS
URGED TO CO-OPERATE—
FIFTEEN SUPERVISORS
CHECKING C HOP ACREAGES
—HOPE lO FINISH BY SEP
TEMBER 15.
To the farmers:
Work is progressing rapidly 2:
the county office relative to secur
ing data on every tobacco farm
in Stokes county for the purpose
of setting up individual tobacco
marketing quotas. With the co
operation of all tobacco growers
in Stokes county, marketing |
quotas can be issued at an early |
dstte. Before any farmer can!
receive his poundage, the county
office must have information about
how many pounds of tobacco were
sold on the farm in 1936 and 1937
together with the number of ten-
I
ant families and the number and (
size of tobacco barns. In addi- ;
tion to this, each giower is asked
to give his estimate as to the num
ber of acres he and his tenants j
have planted this year. To date,,
this information has been secured
for most of the farms in the.
ooupty; however, there are still,)
a number of farms for which this
information is net available. Far
mers who have not submitted the
Above data are urged to do so at
once by calling at the county of
fice. Some farmers have hesi- j
tated t 0 give any information on j
their farms since they do not;
have tobaccp bills qe farm rec- J
ord accounts showing the number
of P9unds sold. Even though a
farmer does not have any record 1
of sales ' made, he should submit!
the other information relative to j
berns and tenants together with
his best estimate as to the number
of pounds marketed in 1936 and
1937.
|
After the above information
has been compiled at the county |
and checked by committee- !
men it will be forwarded to the
I
state office in Raleigh where the
individual' poundage quotas will
be calculated.
COMPLIANCE
Compliance work, or checking
performance for 1938 under thi j
Agricultural Conservation Pro
i
gram is well under way through
out the entire county.
At present, 15 supervisors are
at work checking crop acreages
I
on farms, and 4 or 5 additional
supervisors will be started within |
the next 10 days. By starting at,
this time it is hoped that thej
checking of all farms in the coun-1
ty can bo completed by September
15.

REMARKABLE SUCCESS OF'
f IiKDIT AssOC IATIONS—THE
WINSTON-SALEM RECORD.
I
I The record rr.aJe by the Pro
duction Creai; Associations since:
thev cestui operations in I!'.'J4 has
been littie short of remarkable,
according to Pi.ul J. Vestal. Presi
dent of the Winston-Salem Produc
tion Credit Association, who has
returned from a conference oi
, production credit associat ion di
rectors held at Asheville, N. C.
!
| "According to figures presented
at the conference," said Mr. V\s
tal, "the 550 production credit as
j social ions in the United States j
have more than doubled their
'
membership since 1934. At the
■close of that year they had 121.-1
If 5 members while at the begin
ning ,r the present year they had
a membership of 251.100. In IK;?
the associations made loans total
ling 51C",243.065.00 while in I);J7
they made loar:s totalling S2SC,-'
260,201/ JO.
"In the four states comprising
third Farm Credit Adminis
tration district, North Carolina,
I South Carolina. Georgia and Flori-'
da. the 94 associations since or
ganization have made 217,692
( loanc for a total of $76,552,94f..(H1'
and have charged off only a little
over $40,000. The associations in
this district have now built up re
serves totalling $1,000,000.00. Sure
ly this is a record that cannot be
expelled and it goes to disprove
the theory entertained by many
when the associations were first
organized that farmers could not
'operate their own money-lending
institutions."
j Attending the conference from
the Winston-Salem association be
sides Mr. Vestal were L. E. Fran
!cis, Secretary-Treasurer and Aub
rey P. Snow, Assistant Treasurer,
j "I am proud of the record maGe
by the Winston-Salem Associa
tion," said Mr. Vestal. "Since wa
began operations the first of 1934
,we have made 2,789 loans for a
total of $441,585.00 and have
charged off less than SI.OO. All
the associations represented at the
; conference had splendid records.'
