FARRIERS URGED TO TAKE PART IN COMM. ELECTION A vast majority of the farmers in Madison County are vitally in terested in one or more of the farm programs administered by ASC county and community com mitteemen. Perhaps more are in terested in the Acreage Allotment and Marketing Quota program on burley tobacco, or the Agricultur al Conservation cost-sharing pro gram, than any of the other pro- grama. Yet there are several county farmers who re interested in the new wheat program for 1962, the special feed grain pro gram,, the incentive wool program and the Soil Bank program. In commenting on the importance of these farm (programs tj Madison County and the ASC committee election which will be held on Sep tember 11, County ASC office man ager Ralph W. Ramsey says that they are much closer related than the farmer realises. , If our federal farm programs which are administered by ASC are to be continued and strength ened At is imperative that more farmers indicate : tiieir interest in such programs by taking an ac tive part in (he election of their U LJJ L 1 L ri K, ; 1 t L U i j L j : 1 krif mJ it -J3 Ik YU CAN'T DEAT ANEW OIL HEATER LOOK WHAT IT OFFERS: Completely Automatic v Forced Draft Combustion , Forced Air Circulation On-the-f loor Heat Electric Thermostat Stainless Steel Burner .
