Show County Wheat Quota Is 280,655 Bushels Sanpete county's wheat production average, upon which the county allotment al-lotment will be based under the agricultural ag-ricultural adjustment administration's plan for wheat-production adjustment, is 280,650 bushels, according to Director Di-rector William Peterson, manager of the agricultural adjustment administration adminis-tration for Utah. This figure, which has been determined deter-mined by 'the United States crop reporting re-porting board, represents the average total annual production of wheat in the county for the five-year period from 1928 through 1932, inclusive. The county allotment, which is set at 54 per cent of this average production produc-tion to conform with the percentage of the total national wheat crop which is consumed domestically as human food, totals 151,518 bushels. This allotment al-lotment is the maximum total upon which individual compensation payments pay-ments can be made within the county, Director Peterson said. In order to save administration costs in Utah, the state has been divided , into 11 districts, as follows: No. 1 I Cache and Rich counties; No. 2 Box Elder; No. 3 Weber and Davis; No. 4 Morgan, Summit and Wasatch; No. 5 Salt Lake and Tooele; No. 6 Duchesne, Uintah and Daggett; No. 7 Utah; No. 8 Juab and Sanpete; No. 9 Millard, Beaver, Iron and Washington; No. 10 Sevier, Piute, Wayne, Garfield and Kane; No. 11 Emery, Carbon, Grand and San Juan. If all wheat growers in the county i should decide to "come in" on the j I wheat reduction program, the total of j I their domestic allotments would reach : (approximately the same figure as the' county allotment. The compensation payments will be ' based upon these individual allot-j i ments. The amount of payments which j 1 will be made will depend upon the number -f wheat growers who take 'advantage of the opportunity to par-t par-t tieipate in the wheat program. ! : i |
