Skinner, assistant home agent,
? said yesterday.
Mrs. Skinner is a former exchange
student to Finland
from where Miss Hylli comes.
While in Warren County,
Miss Hylli will live in the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Glenn
Wood and Ellen Glenn Wood
near Littleton where Ellen is
a member of the Littleton Senior
Class,^ and with Mr. and
Mrs. EricH" Hecht and their

program.
Mrs. Skinner said that the
purpose o fthe IFYE program
is that of promoting interna.
tional understanding and it is
conducted by the Cooperative
Extension Service and the National
4-H Club Foundation.
t She said it is a two-way exchange
program of selected
farm youth from the United
States to live and work with
farm families in other countries
for four to six months,
and for faroi youth from cooperating
countries to come to
the United States to live and

reanut Marketing
Figured On Basic!
Peanut marketing penalties
under the 1959-Crop marketing
quota program will be
figured on a basic penalty rate
dhof 7.2 cents per pound, according
to T. E. Watson, County
Office Manager, Agricultural
Stabilization and Conservation,
f He said this rate of penalty
reflects 75 per cent of the
average support price of
$193.50 per ton for the 1959
peanut crop.
Since marketing quotas are
in effect for peanuts, Watson
explained, the marketing of any
1969-crop peanut grown on a
farm where the peanuts acreage
exceeded the effective
farm allotment will be subject
to a marketing penalty
nn ttia 1 9 oanta Katlx
I rate. The penalty rate (or each
tarn, however, will be deter
mined and applied to each
. pound ot peanuts marketed in
the same proportion to the
basic rate that the farm's exI
cess acreage bears to the total
H peanut aereage on the tana.
Thus, Watson concluded, "it
a farm has a peanut allotment
H of 8 seres and the actual farm
peanut acreage is 10 oeras, the
excess acreage would bo 80
per eent of the total acreage.
?The rate of penalty for this
particular farm (called the
"converted penalty rate")
would be 1.4 cents per pound
Hp ?that is, 80 per cent of the
Hs basic penalty rate of 7.2 cents.

Penalties To Be
Rate of 7.2 Cents
Watson cautioned peanut
buyers that they are responsible
for paying the penalty on
any excess peanuts purchased.
All known peanut buyers in
the State have been notified of
the basic penalty rate applicable
to the 1959 crop of peanuts,
ao that they may deduct
the amount of the penalty from
