Farmers Need
Records To Keep
Social Security

"Bcginniug January /, 1855
farmers will have a new bookkeep-
ing chore," University Of Mary
land Extension agricultural econo.
mist Arthur b. Hamilton reminded
He refers to the new Social Sc
curity law which becomes effective
on that date. 1t covers every farm
operator who makes as much as
$500 profit in a year, and all farm
workers who earn as much as 500
cash pay in a year from any one
farmer.
Hamilton quickly explains that
he is not a source of information
on Social Security matters. $50 to
your local Social Security office
for Details" he suggests.
But the agricultural economist
says the new law does touch ON
something in which he is very
much interested. That is farm
records.
Every farm operator and work
en- covered by Social Security will
have to pay the tax required to
carry his share Of the protection"
Hamilton points out. "The tax for
operators is three percent of net
income, taxable on a range be-
tween $500 and $4,000 per year.
And generally speaking, farmers
who hire help viii have to pay two
percent Of the workers wage and
withhold another two percent from
his wage to assure him coverage.
Frankly, don't see how this
can be done without records
He adds that there are many
other good reasons for keeping.
farm records. Farming is not a
simple business any more" he as
serts. "It's complicated-so compli-
Gated that farmer can lose a lot
Of money if he doesn't have an
orderly system for keeping the

One of II in
COrnCutb0ck

The U. S. Department of Agri-
culture has announced that corn
acreage allotmentS will be in Ell
feet for the 1855 crop and has
also designated counties in COM
mercial corn-producing areas in
which allotments will be effective.
The 1855 national and county corn
acreage allotmentS will be an
nounced later.
Fourteen Maryland counties
are included in the commercial
area, according to George j. Mar
tin. Chairman of the Maryland
Agricultural Sterilization and
Conservation Committee.
They are Caroline, Carroll, Ce-
Gil, Dorchester, Frederick, Har-
ford, Kent, Montgomery, Queen
Annes, Somerset, Talbot, Wash
ington, Wicomico and Worcester.
These are the same counties that
were included in the commercial
corn-producing area for the 1854
crop.
Chairman Martin points out
that legislation provides for pro-
claiming acreage allotments for
the commercial corn-producing
area each year not later than
February 1, unless allotments are
dispensed with under the emerg-
ency powers of law.
Even considering drought con-
ditions in many areas, the appar-
ent corn supply for the coming
marketing year is such that
acreage allotments are needed in
the comercial areas to help main
tain a balance between corn pro-
duction and utilization.
In determining the commercial
corn-producing area, counties are
selected on the basis of (a) those
having an average production of
corn Excluding corn used as sill
age) during the preceding 10 cal
endar years, after adjustments
for abnormal conditions, of $50
bushels or more per farm and 4
bushels or more per acre of farm
land in the county, and (b) those
bordering on the commercial
corn-producing area in which
there is a minor civil division
which is likely to produce the
above amounts of corn for the
year.
When corn acreage allotmentS
are in effect, compliance with
farm allotmentS is a condition of
eligibility in the commercial corn
producing area for price supports,
The law exempts the non-com-
mercial corn area from allot-
ments which provides that when
corn acreage allotments are in
effect, county loans and purchase
agreement rates in the non-com-
mercial area are to be q of the
rates in the commercial area.
The Agricultural Act of 1854
exempts corn from marketing
quotas.
