According to word received in the county agents office and the ASC office, farmers of Kane County should note that new legislation signed last week by President Kennedy provides opportunity for a 1962 wheat stabilization program and includes barley in the feed grain program. It doesn't, however, put the wheat orogram into effect, he said, Producers must do that if hey want it. They will have that chance in a marketing quota referendum on Thursday, August 24, 1961. Mark Swapp, chairman Kane county ASCS Committee, says the county office is sending out wheat allotment notices and notifying growers who are eligible to vote. Those who can vote in the referendum include all farmers who have produced more than 13 3 acres of wheat in at least one of the last three years, except those who have a feed wheat exemption for their 1961 cropJts very important that they understand the alternatives they have to choose from and declare their choice at the referendum, he explained. s of A yes vote by door those voting vdUjgpea-4h- e 1962wTieat stabilization for program. Producers who xhen sign up land participate ,in the program will be eligible for price support figures at a national average off $2.00 (84.4 percent of parity) a bushel. They wililso be able to earn payments in Wheat or in cash, for reducing their 1962 wheat acreage by at least wper-cen- t and diverting the lapd to two-third- ute. Farmers who produced under 15 acres have different provisions than those who produce more. These provisions are being explained in letters to the growers. A no vote, indicated by less s of the growers than close the door would yes, voting for the wheat program. Price support at $1.19 a bushel (50 percent of parity) would be available to producers planting within their new acreage allotments. And without marketing quotas there would be no . limit on the amount of wheat marketed. With the huge stocks of wheat now on hand, the effect on the price of wheat received by farmers would be dras- tic. - All growers who may vote should mark the date of August 24, They can vote at the followKane ing place in the county: County ASC office at Kanab located in" the Bybee' Building on Aug. 24, 1961.
