Allen said the temporary quar

"It will be a modern, first-rate

people to acquire some stock in
the bank.
"The stockholders," Allen con

ommendations and detailed in

Duplin County will soon be

Soil Bank Conservation Reserve
Program. O. L. Holland, Chair
man of the Duplin County ASC
Committee, in discussing the Soil
Bank Program, stressed the facl
that conservation work carried
out in the State through the con
servation reserve program sup
plements the work of Agricultu
ral Conservation Program that
has been going on in this State
for the past 23 years.
Some of the objectives of thf
two programs are simibr. Tht
goal of the "ACP" is to encourage
farmers to carry out additional
conservation work that they wo
uld not otherwise carry out en
tirely at their own expense. Ac
cording to Holland while conser
vation is also one of the objec
tives of the conservation reserve
program, the program actually
has three goals (1) to store
up productivity inthe land as a
"bank deposit for the future.
(2) to reduce the production of
crops for harvest, and (3) to im
prove the economic condition of
the Nation's farmers.

the hi-light of the meeting Thurs

kinds were on display pertain
ing to the seven phases of the
Vocational Home Economics pro
gram. Those areas include Child
Care, Clothing, Economics, Foods
Health, Housing, and Family
Relationships.
Bank Sign-up Open
According to Holland, farm
land regularly used in the pro
duction of crops may be inclu
ded in the Soil Bank's conserva
tion reserve. When an approved
practice is carried out on land
placed in the conservation re
serve, the farmer will receive a
payment which may represent up
to 80 percent of the cost of es
tablishing the practice. He wil
also reeeive an annual payment
which for the Stats will average
out to $16 per acre for every acre
placed in the reserve and for
each year of the contract period.
To qualify for payment the
farmer must reduce the average
acreage of crops harvested on his
farm during the past 2 years by
the number of arres he places
in reserve.
Holland cautioned Duplin far
mers that Soil Bank funds avai
lable in this county this year
are only a fraction of what they
have been in prior years. For
this reason farmers must visit
the county office during the sign
up period August 24 - September
10 if they expect to take part
in the program.
After the pre gram, a picnic
lunch will be spread on the
school grounds. Grady points
eat that friends of the Grady
and Outlaw families are In
vited to attend this event as
weH as members of the clan.
