Crop Measurement Is Finished In County Initial measurement of crops and land uses in War ren County has been complet ed and all operators notified of their measured acreage, T. E. Watson, ASCS office man ager, said yesterday. "The job this year was the largest ever in the county, since in addition to measur ing the acreage of cotton, tobacco, peanuts and wheat, over 1100 farms diverted land under the 1963 feed grain and wheat stabilization pro grams and the acreage of feed grain and the acreage diverted were measured on these farms," Watscn explain ed. "In addition there are 71 farms in the county partici pating in the conservation re-i serve phase of the soil bank program. All soil bank bast crops on these farms were measured in addition to the allotment crops grown." Watson said that it is esti mated that on the 2,425 farms , in the county, 26,000 acres of crops and land uses were i measured during the perform-j ance season. He said that about 400 percent of the i farms in the county received' excess notices after initial measurement was made which indicated one of more of the following were not complied with: (1) Too much tobacco, (2) Too much cotton, (3) Ex cess peanuts, (4) Too much corn?feed grain farms, (5) Too much wheat, (6) Not enough diverted acreage, (7) Too much diverted acreage (This required no action on the part of the producer un less he desired to harvest a crop from or graze the di verted acreage). I "To date practically all farm operators have request ed remeasurement or disposi tion of excess acreage and this work will all be com | pleted within a few days," 1 Watson said. ? ! During the peak of the per j formance season, 24 reporters were employed and six tern i porary employee? were used in the county office. Watson said that the coun i ty committee, office manager, j and office personnel wish to i thank the people of Warren I County for their full coopera tion in the performance work. jThe operation, he said, though ' large, ran very smoothly.

This is a re sult of "guide rules" by the Federal Trade Commission which say that shoes whose major parts are made of a material which imitates leather, but is not actually leather, should be clearly identified for the consumer's benefit. Miss Martha Ann Hurt, clothing specialist for the Agricultural Extension Ser vice at N. C. State, says that the parts of a shoe which are traditionally leather and which are covered by the new F T. C. "shoe guides" in clude: the leather uppers (top and sides of the shoe)' leather lining (smooth or suede), the leather inner sole and the leather outer sole. Although shoes which are all-leather need not be label ed. many quality manufactur ers will continue the practice of stamping their footwear "Genuine Leather." Miss Hurt says that they have found that customers desire this information when they select new shoes for children?or for themselves. You will find the new con tent information on shoes in several different forms. Some shoes will carry a separate hang tag, others will have the information printed on the lining of the shoe, while others will have a tag pasted to the sole. Look for the label?it will help you be sure that you are getting your money's worth. COURT (Continued from page 1) of highway, costs. Jimmy Lewis Peoples, i speeding, costs.
