Show Beet Growers Hear AAA Set-Up Plan More than 250 beet growers and fanners from Sevelr and Sanpete counties attended a special mass meeting held at North Sevier high school auditorium Wednesday afternoon after-noon and heard some of the highlights high-lights that will concern payments that are to come, acreages that are to be planted during the coming season, and other ideas that will control beet planting. C. C. Low, of the AAA sugar section, sec-tion, and J. C. Hogenson, of the extension exten-sion service, department of agriculture, agricul-ture, were the principal speakers. Mr. Low, in his talk to the group of interested beet growers, minutely outlined out-lined the, new set-up on beet raising program under the AAA. The bonus payments for previous years, and the allotment in planting and payments for the 1935 crop, were outlined in Mr. Low's talk In an organization, which will comprise com-prise S. R. Bos-well, county agent for Sevier county, who will generally supervise su-pervise the assembling of the necessary neces-sary data, committees will be selected from each community to aid in gathering ga-thering the necessary facts and figures fig-ures to conform with the demands of the AAA. One of the main objects will be to have the several growers compile exact data as to Rcres plant-ad plant-ad for the past five years, and the proposed plant for the year 1935. The uirveys and gathering of the necessary neces-sary data, will prove a herculean task, but efficient men are to be selected to carry out the job. It was brought out that the Gunnison Gunni-son Sugar company had been allotted a total of 7,423 acres to be planted in 1935, being based on the 1933 acreage. This means a ten per cent cut under the first program as announced by the AAA. |
