Past production records of each farmer are needed to determine the allotment of each. He suggests that wheat farmers get the following information ready now: Number of bushels grown each year from 1930 to 1932. Number of acres of wheat planted for the crop of each of these years. All that is needed is the total number of bushels of wheat grown on each farm. It all counts in a farmer's total production for the purpose of the wheat program, whether it has been spring or winter wheat If a farmer has moved from one farm to another in the three-yea- r period, he should make a separate record of the wheat grown on each farm. If he has operated more than one farm, he should also have the information for each of them. By using elevator, freight, threshing, or bank deposit records, the Administration believes that each farmer can get accurate estimates. Each farmer will later be asked for the records on past production and number of acres planted to wheat in the last three years. The county association jyill use these to determine each farmer's allotment. Figures turned in by each farmer are to be published in the local press. Director Peterson emphasizes that the allotment to each county is computed from official records at Washington, D. C, and is all the county can get. It is up to the farmers, through their county association, to divide it fairly among themselves. For further infoimation consult a county agent or write to the Extension Service office at Logan. ht pre-ca- Albert Whole Fair and All Concessions May Be Seen for $26.20 to flhriefpnspn Breaks Fot Fall FORTY-FOU- R Allotment Made to County to be Divid ed Among Growers Son of Mr. and Mrs. T?
