Farmers Are Granted More Time To Sign Work Sheets So Far 100,000 Fanners Have Sign ed Sheets, But a Total Sign-Up of 150,000 is Expected. By H. K. SANDERS An extension of time has been granted North Carolina farmers for filling out and signing work sheets under the new farm program. Over most of the State, said Dean I. O. Schaub, of State Collhge, the time limit for field workers to sign up farmers expired May 31, but farmers will be allowed to sign work sheets in their county agents’ of fices during the first Weeks of June. Certain misunderstandings re garding the new program have tended to handicap the sign-up, the dean explained, with the result that it was not completed on schedule. The work sheets do not obligate farmers in any way, Dean Schaub emphasized. Thqy do not compel farmers to comply with the pro gram, but they must be signed by all who_wish to secure soil-conserv ing or soil-building payments. The severe drouth this spring has undoubtedly hurt crops in North Carolina, he pointed out, and most farmers will find these payments a helpful form of crop insurance. When a farmer carries out the practices for which payments are offered, he will ilqceive his pay ments regardless of the effect of dry weather on his crops. The work sheets will be used in checking each grower’s compliance with the program to determine the amount of his payments. The work of checking compliance will start soon, the dean said, and farmers who have not signed work sheets by that time will not be eligible for payments. So far, 100,000 or more work sheets have been signed in North Carolina. A total sign-up of 150,000 is expected. Some counties have al ready signed up more than 90 per cent of their acreage. As we understand it, any soil building crop planted before Oct. 31, 1936 will enable a farm to quali fy for soil-conserving and soil-build ing payments. A number of farmers have stated that they did not have sufficient soil-building crops to qualify for payments, and therefore had neg lected to sign the work sheet. We wich to state in this connection that there are a number of crops that can be planted before Oct. 31st that will enable a farm to quafily. For instance, peas or soybeans may still bq planted; or red clover or crim son clover in August, September or October. In order that the full acre age may be counted, these crops should be sowed on idle or rested land. If sowed on land frqm which a crop of wheat has been harvested, only one-half the acreage will count as a soil-building crop. It is certainly worth while to in vestigate and find out what is ne cessary for your farm to qualify. 1 farmer came in a few days ago and stated that he knew he could not qualify and therefore had not made any effort to sign a work shfeet. The record of his farm was checked and he was advised that by planting two Goes hand in hand with good tilings to eat SB IOO-62 ?s&'-' |wZj& 4* I When you’re hungry and thirsty there’s /^^’* i \\ nothing more welcome than ice-cold MffjMM \\^ Coca-Cola with food.
