EQUALITY - Robert Attaway, 12-year-old Rockfish 4-Her, sees no reason why girls should be the only ones to demonstrate sewing skills. To show that boys can sew too, he has completed a chefs hat and apron for his 4-H clothing project, the only boy in the county to compete against the 4-H girls in that area. Robert also has a foods project and projects in health, forestry, electric, poultry, management and personal appearance. Imsi year he was named the county home management winner, the electric winner and attended the 4-H Electric Congress in Durham. Local Business It can be asserted with justification that advertising did more to free the American press than the Constitution itself. Before modern retail advertising made newspaper publishing a profitable business. The American Press consisted of a multitude of unreliable political sheets supported by special interests with no concern for objectivity or the welfare of the whole community. As retailing became a scierte, advertisers learned to concentrate their selling in newspapers which were most widely accepted by the public. Political and personal sheets began to disappear. The remaining newspapers became stronger and more independent. They became more responsive to public opinion, and the editor began to regard his position as a public trust. The elimination of nebulous competing sheets resulted in better newspapers produced by much higher qualified personnel dedicated to publication of unbiased news.

The change has been as helpful l<< local retailers as it has been to the general public. It has taken the chaos out of the planning of advertising. Emergence of a truly dominant hometown newspaper, has made it possible for the local retailer to concentrate his advertising in one medium which reaches the whole trade area with no duplication of costs. Hoke ACS News By THOMAS R BURGESS 1971 WHEAT YIELDS ? The basic provisions for proven wheat yields are continued under the Agricultural Act of 1970. Farmers may elect to establish a wheat yield for their farm based on actual production rather than use the established yield as in past years. The base period for establishing 1971 farm yields is 1967, 1968, and 1969. To prove a yield a person must have harvested wheat acreage in each of these three years and be able to provide reliable proof of production on the harvested acres. In order to prove a wheat yield, a person must: I. File a written request at the ASCS office by January 15. 1971. 2. Furnish production records for all farms on which he had an interest in the wheat in 1967, 1968, and 1969 identified by farm. 3. Furnish acceptable records which are: A. Bin measurements B. Sales receipts C. Warehouse receipts D. Scale tickets from public scales. REMINDER TO COTTON PRODUCERS - The Agricultural Act of 1970, signed into law by President Nixon on November 30, 1970, authorizes a set-aside program for upland cotton for 1971 through 1973. You will be notified of your farm's base acreage allotment shortly after the first of the year. The Act provides that the payment yield for any year shall be determined on the basis of the actual yields per harvested acre for the three preceding years, except that the 1970 farm projected yield shall be substituted in place of the actual yields for the years 1968 and 1969. There is a provision for adjusting the actual yields for abnormal yields in any year caused by drought, flood, or other natural disaster. Thus, the 1971 payment yield will ordinarily be determined by multiplying the farm's 1970 projected yield by two, adding the 1970 actual yield per acre, and dividing by three. As the 1970 actual production is used in determining the 1971 payment yield, producers (farm operators) should submit to the ASCS county office a record of the actual 1970 cvidcdn^,'f?n- At?P'able Shall Vn I ?I aC,ual Paction shall include summarization of I - tCte'P'?. price support **" bale numbers or ,,k C"I,0B wat K-nned. f other equally reliable shSfin' I TtHf """narizalioii * wdude: I.
