Farmers, Maintain Your Wheat Acreage Farmers who seed as much as 75 per cent of their 1956 wheat allotments will not be penalized for underseeding in the establishment of any future acreage allotments, Mr. Barksdale, Chairman of the county Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee has announced. This new feature of the wheat program was recently announced by the Secretary of Agriculture. In 1954 and 1955, to get credit for seeding his full allotment, a wheat farmer was required to seed at least 90 per cent of his allotment. The county chairman explained that past acreage history is one of the major factors in distributing wheat allotments to individual farms. Under the new ruling it will be unnecessary for a producer to seed “right up to his allotment” in order to protect his acreage history. If the producer does not underseed by more than 25 per cent of this allotment, the farm will be considered as having seeded the full allotment in 1956 for purposes of future wheat acreage allotment determinations, Mr. Barksdale explained.

Antilion, 18year-old delegate from the Philippines, made the following contribution: “Usually, when I discuss with people the kind of world we want, they astonish me by describing a Utopia without cares. As for me, I like this world we have. I like Jiving in this century—so full of strivings and plans that I feel part of a wonderful and .exciting experiment. I like the suspense which gives to life its only true zest. Let me have this world, with dreams for me to dream and problems for me to solve. “If I had Kved before the A-and H-bombs I might be less optimistic of the future. But today I have great hope that we shall enjoy peace for I feel deeply that no nation wilf start a war which none can possibly survive. “I believe that this world we have deserves a vote of confidence. With its dirt and cleanness, its ups . and downs and it total unexpectedness, it has given,, through variety, more pleasure than pain. Whatever else it may be, this particular century is still the broadest, the 'most exciting, the most promising of all. “May this world always bg as challenging as it is. May it always have something to be solved, patched or mended. But above all, may this world never be a soft place for soft people with soft heads. For 1 want a world where a man by facing his troubles, can prove his manhood. With a world of such challenge and scope, our lives will never be complacent, but they , will certainly be worth living.” (From Gluey Gleaming?) Slate Mills News Mr. and Mrs. Arthur T.

ANNOUNCEMENT Certain stories have been spread throughout the County about me regarding transportation of colored school children. The stories are political propaganda. They are not true. , The law in Virginia at that time—more than five years ago—called for separate but equal facilities. Separate schools, separate buses. I felt that every child — mine included — should have some means of transportation to and from school. - The attempt to bring racial issues into the campaign by distorting the truth will not fool many people. Mud slingers, I hope, will be easily detected, and exposed. i v ALFRED M.

If it looks like Creek well, sopnetimes it is, einco physicians still nse some words from that ancient langnage. But that doesn’t baffle yoor pharmacist. Ho learned the language of medicine long age in pharmacy school. And he didn’t stop learning there. Pharmacists, like doctors, have to keep themselves alert to everything new in medicine. In these days of rapid medical progress, that’s quite a job. But they don’t stop there, either. That knowledge has to be translated into practical terms, to help yep. For the doctor, that means deciding oh the proper treatment. For the pharmacist, filling the prescription accurately.

Under the wheat allotment program a “new farm’’ is one in which no wheat was seeded in any of the years 1953, 1954, and 1955. To apply for an allotment the farm operator must file an application with the county ASC office. Blank application forms are available for use in filing these requests. To be considered for a new farm allotment, farmers will be required to furnish information for the consideration of the county committee. Such information would include the reason for requesting an allotment, why wheat should be produced rather than some other small grain, why no wheat was seeded during the past three years, and an explanation of the crop rotation system. Also the operator must expect to derive at least half of his livelihood from the farm. * Mr. Barksdale explained that any wheat allotments granted to new farms must come out of a I small reserve which the county committee will establish for that purpose. “This reserve naturally will not be large since any wheat allotment acreage set aside for new farms must reduce the total allotment from old established wheat farms by THAT AMOUNT”, the chairman explained.
