Raleigh, March 30-The new pro-
gram which succeeds the Old AAA is
soil building program, having for
it's ultimate purpose q definite in
crease in the farmers income and pro
viding national stability in withdraw
ing infertile soil from the cultivation
of cash crops, preventing erosion of
land, and increasing the soil water
table that floods and drouths may be
prevented. Dean I. 0. Schaub of the
State College Extension Service said
today.
In securing the cooperation of far
mers in these major purposes, two diff
ferent payments are offered him for
voluntary participation. There are no
binding contracts and no compulsion.
But if a farmer does certain things
in a positive way, he secures certain
benefit payments or grants. After two
years of preliminary effort, the pro-
gram becomes permanent in 1888 with
program as a definite part of future
farming operations.
Must Keep Work Sheet.
In the first place, the landowner
prepares his planting scheme for the
year on a work sheet and shows that
he has replaced at least 20 percent Of
his base acreage of soil depicting
crops with soil conserving crops. In
the case of cotton, he may replace up
to IS percent of his base acreage as
fixed under the old AAA contracts;

with tobacco, he may replace 80 per-
cent of his old base, and with peanuts,
20 ercent. For replacing IS percent
of his cotton, he is paid at the rate
of five cents a pound for the normal
yield of cotton On the acres replaced.
Thus if his cotton yield is $40 pounds
to the acre and he replaces 10 acres
on his farm, he is paid five times O.
400 pounds or $500 This is $12 an
acre which will be about the average
payment for cotton in North Carolina.
Tobacco will average about $40 an
acre since the payment here also is
five cents a pound.
Another Payment.
But this is only one payment. All
the soil conserving crops planted on
the land, if as much as 20 percent
of the base acreage is devoted to
these crops, qualities the landowner
for another payment of up to ST an
acre. Thus if a person puts in 40 acres
of soil conserving crops and this acre
age is 20 percent of the base acreage
planted on the whole farm, then the
farmer has a ceiling or top payment
of $40 that he may earn. It doesn't
mean that he will get $40 just by hav-
ing these acres in soil conserving
crops. 1t means that he can earn $40
by following some definite and posi-
tive soil improving practice. In other
words, the amount of soil conserving
crops planted is a measure of what a
man can earn in this particular phase
of the program by good soil manage
ment practices.
