Cotton Acreage
Reserve Deadline
Is Set March I -
: March 1 1957 is the deadline for
farmers to sign agreements under
the 1937 cotton acreage reserve
program Dan De Berry chairman
of the Mc Curtain county ASC com-
mittee has announced
Agreements will be entered in-
to on a "first-come first-served"
- basis and late-comers will have
to take their chances of additional
funds being made available lat-
er he declared
The chairman explained that
agreements with farmers to put
up to the maximum acreage un-
der the Acreage Reserve program
will te entered into on a firm
basis as long as the County al-
location of funds permits
The maximum acreage for cot-
ton is 0 acres or 30 per cent of
the allotment whichever is larg-
er Farmers who sign agreements
after such funds are exhausted
kill be listed in the order of sign-
ing and these agreements Ivill be
honored later if additional funds
are made av4i1able through real-
location from other counties after
the close of the program sign-up
Any farmer who wishes to put
an acreage under the program
which is larger than delie allowed
maximum should indicate this at
the time he signs the original
agreement If additional funds are
allocated later a new agreement
for the larger amount will then be
entered into by the farmer and
the county ASC committee
DeBerry emphasized that land
placed in the cotton acreage 're-
serve must be specifically desig-
nated and identified in the agree-
ment and that only land suit-
able for the production of cotton
v111 be eligible for such designa-
tion Farmers who take part in the
acreage reserve program must re-
duce their acreage of the crop be-
low the farm allotment must not
harvest or graze the "reserved"
land (except when permission is
granted in emergencies) and
must take steps t-) prevent the
land from spreading "Noxious
weeds In addition they must
comply with all allotments es-
tablished for other crops on the
farm

Wool Incentive Program For 1957
Is Explained By USDA Officials
The U S Department of Agri-
culture today announced that pro-
visions of the 1957 wool incentive
program will be the same as for
the current marketing year
The 1957 program will apply to
wool and lambs marketed during
the April 1 1957 to March 31
1958 period
The shorn wool incentive price
for the 1957 marketing year as
previously announced will be 62
cents per pound This is the same
as the incentive prices for the 1955
and 1956 marketing years
The payment on shorn wool and
lambs marketed with the wool on
is based on this incentive price
As under previous programs
the payment rate for shorn wool
will be the percentagc required to
bring the average price all pro-
ducers receive for the 1957 clip
up to the 62-cent incentive level
Producers who market wool dur-
ing the 1957 marketing year will
be eligible for a payment which
will be an amount equal to the
percentage payment rate times
the proceeds from the sale of
their wool
(For the 1955 clip on which pay-
ments were made this past sum-
mer the payment rate was 449
percent which resulted in a pay-
ment of $4490 for every $100 pro-
ducers received from shorn wool
sales)
Payments on the 1957 wool clip
will be made in the summer of
1958 when the tabulation of pro-
ducer returns is completed
The payment method on lambs
will be the same as under the
current 1956 program which pro-
vides for payments to producers
only in connection with the sale
of lambs that have never been
shorn
Each producer who owns lambs
for 30 days or more and sells the
lambs unshorn will be eligible for
a payment The payment will be
made on the weight increase of
the animals that occurs during
each producer's period of owner-
ship Payments to producers who buy
unshorn lambs and later shear
them will be subject to a down-
ward adjustment in any shorn
wool 'incentive payment
The downward adjustment will
be the amount of lamb payments

that previous owners are eligible
to receive
In contrast to the shorn wool
papnent the payments on un-
shorn lambs will be at a fixed
rate per hundredweight of live
lambs sold based on the average
weight of wool per hundred pounds
of lamb
For payment purposes the aver-
age weight of wool per hundred
pounds of unshorn' lamb is as-
sumed to be five pounds and the
value of lamb wool has been set
at BO percent of the shorn wool
as it is coarser and shorter in
staple length
The national wool act of 1954
also provides for the support of
mohair prices The support price
for the 1957 program has been
set at 70 cents per pound
This is the same support price
as for Cie 1955 and 1956 programs
although no payments were made
in those years because the mar-
ket price was above the support
level
If payments are required in
1957 they will be made in the
same manner as for shorn wool
No payments will Le made on the
marketing of goats and kids
Producers are urged to keep
their accounts in a safe place as
these documents must be attach-
ed to the application when the
producer makes application for
shorn wool and unshorn lamb
payments
These accounts of sale must
have the information needed to
support the producer's payment
application Applications should be
submitted to county Agricultural
Stabilization and Conservation Of
flees These offices will also
make the payments in the sum-
mer of 1958
Producers are also urged to get
the best possible price in selling
their wool Under the percentage
method of payment the higher re-
turn the individual producer gets
In the market the larger his in-
centive payment is
This method is designed to en-
courage producers to do the best
possible job of marketing their
wool
Even though prices for domes-
tic wools have gone up to 25 cents
per clean pound on the average
during the past year prices are
I still lagging behind the price for
