Show Mellor Calls For Estimates On Wheat Crop The present estimates of supply, sup-ply, utilization, and production of wheat indicate that under the Agricultural Act of 1948, marketing market-ing quotas may be proclaimed for the 1950 wheat crop, Archie M. Mellor, chairman of the Sanpete San-pete County Agricultural Conservation Conser-vation Association committee announced this week. Should it develop that marketing mark-eting quotas are not required, Mr. Mellor stated that it still would be probable that allotments allot-ments would be needed in connection con-nection with the price support program. Under present procedure, allotments al-lotments will be established for all farms on which wheat was seeded for harvest in any one or more of the years 1947, 1948, or 1949, and such ' farms will be regarded as "old wheat farms" All other farms will be considered as "new wheat farms", and allotments will not be established for them unless specifically requested in writing by the producers, Mr. Mellor stated. Notice is hereby given to all farmers in Sanpete county who expect to plant wheat in 1950 on farms on which wheat was not seeded for harvest in any one or more of the years 1947, 1948, or 1949, that they have until July 1, 1949, to request an allotment. All requests for allotments on new wheat farms must be filed in writing with the Sanpete County ACA Committee by this date, Mr. Mellor said. |
