Reminds of New
Social Security Law

Many farm operators and agri-
cultural workers are still uncer.
tain about how changes made last
year in the social security law
affect them. says George A. Ste
vens, University of Maryland ag-
ricultural economist.
Self-employed farmers and
many farm employees are cover
ed by social security for the first
time this year, Stevens reminds
farm families and farm workers
in Maryland.
If you have not already done
so, Stevens says, it will be to
your benefit to find out exactly
how the law now affects you and
your family. Social security may
offer you the benefit of a retire
ment income after age 65, or an
income to your widow and minor
children. or dependent parent in
the event of your death.
If you own farm and are
self-employed, you must obtain
the proper tax forms from your
district director of Internal Rev.
enue, fill out the necessary in.
formation about your farm oper
alton and income, and pay the

der the law if he, or she, runs
a separate enterprise such as poul-

If you are employed as an ag-
ricultural worker, and you earn
500 or more in cash mot goods
or board, in a calendar year
from any one employer, you are
covered by the law, says Stevens.
Your employer is responsible for
obtaining and filing the proper
forms, and paying the tax. He
should withhold 2 percent of your
wages for this purpose, and send

Assistance i'm
Construction
Is Available

AS the experienced farmer
knows, it's the occasional heavy,
gully-forming deluge, not just
ordinary rainfall, that puts a
farm drainage system to the test.
At such times, grass waterways
can offer the supplemental drain.
age needed to protect both land
and crops. suggests Delbert T.
Foster agent for Montgomery
County.
Commenting on the value OF
grass waterways, Foster said
During heavy rains more water
falls on nearly ann cropland than
can be held by the best crop rota.
tons, contour farming, strip crop
ping, or even terraces.
This water will run off
through some kind of waterway"
said Foster unless you provide
a safe waterway, it probably will
cut gully"
Usually it is easiest and cheap
est to use a natural depression
for a grass waterway to carry
the water away safely. On farms
where there is no natural depres-
sion that can be used, water
way must be constructed. Help
in designing such waterways is
available from soil conservation
district in Poolesville, with Fred
Hagen, work unit conservation
list.
Any grass waterway that is to
carry extra water safely must be
designed to take care of all rains.
Its grass cover should be dense,
and it must be kept in good con-
dition year after year
When carefully made and man.
aged, grass waterways will more
than pay their way in added farm
income. Many are used as regu-
lar hayfields, some produce grass
or legume seed for use on the
farm or for sale, and all of them
can be paStured at some time dur
ing the year, depending upon the
kind of grass used.
Here are some general recon-
mendations for building and
maintaining a dependable grass
waterway:
Prepare a firm seeded; apply
10 to 20 spreader loads of man.
ure per acre; lime and fertilize
as needed; seed the right kind
of grass at the proper time.
Apply mulch Immediately after
seeding; protect from washing un.
til grass becomes established; re-
pair breaks Immediately with soil
and sod; topdress occasionally
with nitrogen to maintain dense
sod; clip or Craze to maintain
short dense top growth.
