1964 Wheat Allotment! rNotices Being Mailed Notices of IBM-crop whea acreage allotments are not being mailed to all whea farm operators, W. S. Smiley chairman, Agricultural Stabili ration and Conservation Coun ty Committee, announce! yesterday. For most wheat farms, th< chairman explained, the allot ment represents the farm' share of the 1964 nations wheat allotment of 49.S mil lion acres. For small farms however?those with whea allotments of less than 1! acres, the allotment repre sents the larger of (a) th< farm's allotment based on the national allotment, or (b) 9( per cent of the farm's aver age 1959-61 wheat atieage but not more than 15 acres. Smiley pointed out that all of the wheat produced on a participating farm's wheat al lotment acreage may be mar keted free of penalty if mar keting quotas are made ef fective for the 1964 wheat crop. All wheat from a farm which had no wheat history in the three base years 1959 61, however, would be sub ject to a marketing quota penalty. The question of whether to use marketing quotas for the 1964 wheat crop will be de cided by wheat growers in a referendum on May 21. "Small farm" operators will be eligi ble to cast ballots provided they register?by May 13? their intentions to participate in the 1964 program as an allotment grower. They will do this by signing in the space provided on the back of the regular allotment notice, MQ-24, and filing the notice at the ASCS County Office before the deadline. Negro FARM AGENT NEWS LEONARD C. COOPER Negro County Agent I. W. MURFREE Asst. Negro County Agent $526.00 PER ACRE FOR i CUCUMBERS The producers of pickling cucumbers averaged 150 bushels of cucumbers per acre in 1962. This meant that the grower sold an aver age of 40 bushels of No. l's at $5.00 per hundred pounds; 70 bushels of No. 2's at $2.00 per hundred pounds; and 40 bushels of No. 3's at $1.00 per hundred pounds. This grossed the producer $182.10 per acre. This year, cucumbers will sell for $6.00 per hundred pounds for No. Is; $2.25 per No. 2's; and $1.00 per hun dred pounds for No. 3's. The time of year that cu cumbers come into produc tion, a dollar stands up like a dollar because all our to bacco money has just faded away. We further feel that if our farmers would use their best land and follow ?research recommenda tions with reference to the production practices, cucum ben could mean a real im portant source of income for cucumber producers. All growers should produce 150 bushels of No. l's?the trouble is?just don't harvest them until they are No. 2't and No. 3's. Your goal should be 290 bushels of cucumbers at 150 bushels of No. l's; 79 bushels of No. 2's; and 2! bushels of No. 3's. Thh would gross you $432.00 foi 100 bushels of No. l's; $82.0C for 75 bushels of No. 2's; and $1X00 for 25 bushels of No 3's?for a total of $826.00 pei It's up to you to get the maximum dollars for youi labor. This depend* on YOU and not yor neighbor! A you saw it advertise*! Record. r \Ft WANT A HOUSE? SEE US! W? Build All M Under quotas, a small farm operator who does not elect to participate in the wheat program as an allotment grower would be able to stay out of the program, and plant wheat up to the larger of his 1964 allotment or his 3-year base (but not more than IS acres) without being subject to marketing quota penalties. Penalties would apply to J wheat in excess of this limit. ' Such a grower will not be ! eligible to vote in the refer I endum, however, and he [ would not be eligible for | price support or diversion j payments. If at least two-thirds of the | growers voting in the refer I cndum approve quotas for the 1964 wheat crop, price sup port will be available to par ticipating growers who keep within their acreage allotment at (a) $2 a bushel, national average, on certificated wheat, and (b) $1.30 a bushel, national average, or noncer tificated wheat; and diversion I payments will be made to growers on acreage diverted from wheat production into a; conserving use (including the] acreage reduction reflected in \ the farm allotment). If more than a third of the growers voting in the ! referendum oppose the 1964- j crop wheat quotas, price sup- j, port at 50 per cent of parity i (about $1.25 a bushel) will be < available to participating | growers who keep within [ their acreage allotments. Without quotas, no diversion '; program would be in effect. , As in the past, the allotments I't will remain in effect, whether | or not quotas are approved for the 1964 wheat crop.

Would Be Cheaper A woman decided to have the shape of her nose altered. "How much will you charge," she asked a beauty surgeon. "Five hundred dollars, madam." "Five hundred dollars! Isn't there something a little less expensive?" "Well," replied the sur geon "you could try walking into a lamp-post." DAVID SHE AKIN Warrenton Man Elected Treasurer East Carolina SGA GREENVILLE?"I was in terested in getting into stu dent government work and met the right people," said David Shearin of Warrenton. The newly-elected SGA treasurer at East Carolina j College, son of Mr .and Mrs. I Roy Vance Shearin, is "de- j lighted to be elected as treas- j urer. It gives me an oppor-, tunity to meet more stu- \ dents." I Shearin explained that he became interested in student government work while he was a high school student and served as president of his class for four years. A business major, the ris ing senior served last year as assistant treasurer. Other SGA activities' include mem bership on the Elections Committee and the ID Card Committee, and secretary of the Budget Committee. He is also a member of the Theta Chi social fraternity, the young Democrats Club, and the Future Business Leaders j of Amercia. As full-time treasurer next! year, he will serve as treas urer of the SGA Executive! Council as well as a member of the Dean's Advisory Coun cil. But the position of treasurer is quite a job with in itself. The treasurer of the East Carolina Collge SGA handles more money than any other student government of ficer in North Carolina, ac cording to officials. "Working with the SGA has made me feel more of a part of the college," he stat ed. "It has also made me more conscious of financial matters as well as giving me the satisfaction of feeling that I am helping the students." | He finds the campaigning for office extremely interest ing and rewarding. The new treasurer, who will assume his duties May 13, was as sured of his position for next year because the assistant < treasurer automatically takes over the office. Yet, Shearin, "because I felt I was being left out," had cards and post ers printed and campaigned along with the rest of the candidates. Following graduation next spring, he plans to enter law school. "I want to do some thing that won't confine me entirely to an office," he ex plained "Something that will allow me to meet the public."

Adult Farmers Take Arc Welding Course Eighteen adult farmers of the Vocational Agriculture Department of the North War ren High School successfully completed a twenty-hour course in Farm Arc Welding Thursday night, April 18. This course was authorized by the State Department of Public Instruction and was administered through the In dustrial Education Center at Wilson in cooperation with the local superintendent's of fice. Funds for the instruc tor were made available by an appropriation made by the 1961 State Legislature for the operation of a program of Agricultural Technology Edu cation for the purpose of training agricultural members in the non-farming agricul tural occupation; to meet the demands of modern technical agriculture. These courses are operated through the Indus trial Education Centers in cooperation with Agricultural Departments which have adult farm classes. Equipment and materials are supplied by the local school and county units. Sup erintendent J. K. Peeler, Principal G H. Washington and members of the Advisory j Committee have cooperated to make the course possible and I to keep the attendance at n high level during this busy time of the year. I Ruffin Gill, a graduate of | A. & T. College Trade School who is chief mechanic at the Bland Pruitt Industries of Louisburg, served as instruc tor for the course. The Ad visory Committee has already submitted plans for two courses next year. One course will be in welding for those who didn't get a chance to take it this time, and one in Tractor Maintenance for those who took welding this year.

Tobacco Farmers Wage Insects Fight Tobacco farmers have a variety of insects to fight off as they nurse their plants through every stage of de velopment. n'~ ? j Take tobacco plant bed in sects, for example. There are flea beetles, midge and crane- j fly larvae, vegetable weevils, aphids, green June beetle larvae, and cutworms. And if these aren't enough for the tobacco farmer to fight, he also has mole crick ets, slugs and snails, and grasshoppers after his young plants. By the time a farmer gets his plants set in the field, the wire worms are ready to move in, along with the cut worms, flea beetles, bud worms, vegetable weevils and grasshoppers. The most common insect on larger tobacco plants is the hornworm. But he is not alone, for there are still flea beetles, budworms, aphids and grasshoppers around.

SAIKS AMD SftVfCf ^ C & S TRACTOR & EQUIPMENT CO. New Farming Concept Making Contribution To N. C. AgricalJure Mulch tillage, a relatively new concept in famine, to beginning to make a contri bution to North Carolina ag riculture.-' Mulch tillage, or mulch planting u it la lomeUmea called, is a once-over plant ing operation without prior land preparation that saves tiirfk and makes maximum use of crop residue. The most -common form of mulch tillage is the plant ing of soybeans and milo in small grain stubble. Agrono mists with the Soil Conserva tion Service and N. C. State College have found this meth od of planting to be practical throughout the Coastal Plain and in some parts of the Piedmont. Frank Doggett, extension soil conservationist at State College, estimates that about 10,000 acres of corn and 100 acres of milo in North Caro lina were planted in small grain stubble last year. Individual farmers, doing their own experimenting, have tried mulch planting of corn, cotton and millet in such cover crops as vetch and rye Specially adapted equip ment is used to make the new crc> rows in the stub bles immediately after the small grain has been har vested. Farmers report they can save from $9 to $10 per acre in land preparation costs by using this method. There also is less danger of the soil eroding. College tests have shown that soybeans mulch planted immediately after small grain harvest will yield about as well as soybeans planted in early May by conventional methods. Doggett says experience is showing that there is usuallv enough moisture in the soil following small grain harvest to germinate soybean seed. This moisture is often lost if conventional land prepa to make life even more com plicated, large tobacco plants also can be attacked by suck flies, splitworms, Japanese beetles and cabbage loopers. Fortunately, not every to bacco farmer has to fight all these insects every season. But George Jones, in charge of extension entomology at North Carolina State College, says it pays a farmer to keep close check on his tobacco day-by-day throughout the growing season. To help farmers control the multitude of tobacco in sects once they have spotted, Jones has prepared a free leaflet which can be obtained from local agricultu ral extension agents or by writing directly to him at State College, Raleigh. Each tobacco insect to de scribed in a layman's lan guage and the proper method of control to outlined. ration la attempted. Alao. Daggett ?nd hU co workers have fouad that rain will not delay mulch plant fatC aa tens ax it might de lay planting on convention ally prepared land. Cultivation of mulch plant ed crop la described aa dif ferent, but simple. Grasa and weeds have been found easy to handle. Doggett cautions farmers that mulch planting la a form of "double cropping." Ade quate fertilizer is a must if soil depletion is to be avoid ed. [ County extension agents have printed information on mulch planting for farmers who are interested in trying the new method, or for farm ! ers who feel they may not i be getting the best results from it. Free copies of the infor mation also can be obtained ! by writing directly to Dog | get at N. C. State College, i Raleigh. Everybody Happy "Bobby, do you think your sister likes me?" 1 " I know she does. You take her to the movies and buy her candy." "I'm glad I make her happy." "Yes, and her sweetheart is happy, too. You save him such a lot of money." About 250 insects in North Carolina are pests, according to George Jones, extension entomology specialist at North Carolina State College.
