WANT $70 A TON FOR CURRENT PEANUT CROP Proposed Adjustment Plan | Contemplates That Price for Peanuts This Year ? I The proposed peanut adjustment program for North Carolina contem plates measures for insuring a price rof approximately $70 a ton to the i growers, B. Troy Ferguson, district agent in charge of the program for State College, announced this week, i Plans for adjusting the crop to de mand include a sign up campaign in which contracts similar to cotton and i tobacco reduction contracts will be ESTABLISH POOL FOR HANDLING EXCESS COTTON Growers with Excess May Procure Additional Tax Exemption Warrants Cotton farmer* who production is over their allotment will be able to purchase additional tax exemption certificates and those whose produc tion is under their allotment will be able to sell surplus certificates through a national pool, under the provisions of a ruling issued by the Secretary of Agriculture, it is an nounced by the Agricultural Adjust ment administration. The sale price has been set at four cents per pound "This plan of handling the excess . certificates/' says Claarles A. Shef-' field, assistant extension director at State College in charge of the cotton ' idjustment program in North Caro lina, "does not mean that the Gov jrnment will purchase such certifi cates but does mean that those whj have more certificates than they have cotton to gin and sell may turn the ' excess certificates ovr to the n^anager of the national surplus cotton tax exemption certificate pool who will ' handle them for producers under a trust agreement." The pric of four cents per pound is ^ ipproximately 70 percent of the tax of , 5.67 cents per pound imposed by the I Bankhead Act on the ginning of cot ton. Under the pool provisions, far mers who do not produce as much will get some cash from excess cer jffered the growers, he said. The amount of peanuts they would j jc allowed to market this year and the acreage to be planted next year will j >e worked out by the Agricultural Ad justment Administration. Ferguson ?aid the contracts should be ready in :ime to cover this year's crop. Grow- ( :rs met in Washington the early part t ){ this week to work out crop plans. petails of the program, as it affects North Carolina, will depend on what ^ irrangements may be made with Geo. J Ross for the purchase of 50,000 acres j1 >f peanuts by the Federal Emergency i( <elief Administration for feeding cat- | le. Such a purchase would reduce the acreage for other commercial pur poses about 20 percent, Ferguson es tiniated, and would aid in alleviating [he oversupply which has forced prices down. In 1928 peanuts sold for al most $100 a ton. Recently the price has been about $60. Before negotiation for selling the >eanuts, vines and all, for cattle feed ing can be completed, considerable technical work must be done to es abMsli a fair price, he pointed out. Jne problem is determining what per .entage of the hay consists of peanut and of vine. Another is that of as certaining the worth of the whole crop as compared with the value of pea nuts alone. He cited another factor which must he considered in fixing a price fair to all growers. Peanuts harvested in lry, sandy soil are practically free of lirt. But when harvested from damp, { loamy soil they are covered with dirt which, in some cases, will account for j 40 to 50 percent of the weigh^ of a stack of peanuts in the viqei All these things and many others must be ronsidered, Ferguson stated. tificatcs and those farmers who pro duce more than their allotments will able to gin and sell some of their 1 excess. Ernest L. Deal, of Florence, Ala., has been designated manager of the pool. Price Pxed for Excess Certificates When the pool is closed, all funds on hand from the sale of the certifi cates, after deducting expenses, will be distributed among producers am! each producer will receive his share in the proportion the poundage sur rendered by him bears to the total poudagc in the pool. In addition, each producer will be returned his pro rata share of the unsold surplus cer tificates, which may be used next year in the event the Bankhead Act is continued another season. The plan also includes provision for local sales of tax-exemption cer tificates in a county at the same price by individual farmers provided the sales are made through the office of the assistant in cotton adjustment iu the county in which the certificates sold were distributed. Farmers wishing to participate in the pool, either as sellers or buyers of certificates, should make arrange ments through their county assistants in cotton adjustment. Quality Is Factor In Culling Poultry Flock In saving; layers this coming season a great deal will depend upon the quality of the birds when going out of lay, but the late moulters in good weight and whose production has been up to standard will be profitable. These hens will have a decreased pro- I duction of approximately 25 percent ? but, with egg prices going up, a good i hen should pay a profit. If there is not sufficient housing space, hopper space and waterers none of the hens should be saved as they would cause ! over-crowding and lessen productio 1 j of all birds.
