WARNING ISSUED
STATE FARMERS
THOSE COOPERATING IN 1887
PROGRAM ADVISED BY
A. j. BORTON

A. j. BOrtOn, executive secretary
OF the Montana agricultural con-
SeVata0n committee, announces that
farmers cooperating in the 1897
agricultural conservation program
who own or operate more than one
farm in a single county should
MAKE certain that all land owned
or operated by them is reported In
the application for payment.
He explains that all farms on which
the applicant shares in the nrincinal
crop, including those on which q 1937
payment is earned and on those on
which the deductions exceed the nav
ment. must be included.
Three cases are cited by Borton
where failure to meet these REQUIRE
mentS viii require filing a new appli-
cation giving the information com
pletely.
The first is that in which an owner
or operator fails to report all farms
which he owns or operates at the
time. OF filing his application sor pay
ment. After the application has been
approved by the state AAA office, adj
dlGional farms cannot be included for
the purpose of receiving a larger pay
ment.
In the second case an applicant re-
ports only part of the farms owned or
operated by him and has deductions on
unreported farms which would reduce
the conservation payments on the
farms reported. In these Instances the
application for payment cannot be ap-
proved and a new application must Be
filed. Where payment has been made
The amount Of the overpayment will
nave to be refunded and a new appli
cation for payment filed.
The third case is that In which an
appncant dlSposes OF, or acquires any
arm solely for the purpose of re-
;eivtng 9 larger payment. Such appli-
;ants win not be eligible for conserva-
ion payments.
