Show Lamb Sales Must Be Certified Or 1 Vill Lose Money According to Joseph Wilcken, a chairman of the Duchesne Agricultural Agri-cultural Stabilization and Conservation Conser-vation County committee, the farmers of this area stand to lose a considerable amount of money if certificates are not obtained from the Uintah Sales Barn for lambs sold through them that have gone for slaughter. Although the amount of payment pay-ment is still' unknown, the wool incentive payment on unshorn lambs and yearlings sold for slaughter could very easily run as high as 750 to $1.00 per cwt. of lambs. Considering the number of lambs that have been sold through the local auction yard, this could mean thousands of dollars to the people of our county, Mr. Wilcken advises. Must Own Lambs To be' eligible for payment on lambs and yearlings, the applicant nust have owned the lambs for i least thirty days and the ani-als ani-als must have been sold for slaughter. Payments will be based ;n the' liveweight of the animals. Mr. Wilcken further points out that application for the 1955 marketing mar-keting year, which ends March 31, 1956, must be filed not later than April 30, 1956. Owners who are in doubt about the evidence' needed should ask the ASC county office about the detailed certification requirements for the method of sale'.
