Corn Price Supports Made
Revisions Affect

The 1856 corn program will have
two important changes affecting
eligibility for price support, ac-
cording to Lloyd Roby, chairman
OF the Madison County Agricul-
tural Sterilization and Conserva-
tion Committee.
I'm the first place." the chair
man said, there will be no agre-
gate compliance-the corn acreage
on each farm will be considered
separately in determining compli-
ance with the farm corn acreage
allotment as a condition of price
support eligibility"
I'm the second place." Mr.. Roby
added, price supports will be a.
vailable to producers in CONNER
cial area counties who are dete n:
ined to have exceeded their corn
Po~eage aliotments, but the rare
will be five-sixths of the county
late to producers who comply with
,ueIr corn aliotnents."
Mr.. l. 10y explained that this lat
ter provision applies also to pro-
ducerS who grew corn on farEs m
side the cor1rlCTcial corn area
which have n corn allotments Il
such an instance, the farm is con-
sidered 10 have az allotment Of
zero acres, and any corn acfsagr
on the farm is t!,erefore in excess

regular manner. And it is also
polite and polite to say that
the Trueloves are just about
as fine as people ever get.
And this goes too for Harry's
chauffeur, Tom Williams, who
was General Montgomery's
personal driver during the
war. Tom is a fine fellow and
the best driver / have ever
ridden with and brother, it
takes a good driver over here!
After few days here, it
is our plan to put the car on
a ferry boat and go to Belfast
so that we can drive down to
Dublin and see some of the
Irish country. Too, we can
have short visit with our
Irish friend, Tom Morrison,
whom we met going back to
the United States last year.
Thus Tom, Dick and Harry
will again raise glass in mu-
tual toasts to respective coun-
tries. IF this isn't "internation-
al relations" at its best, I'll
eat my tam-o-shanter.
But I must away from all
this as there is plenty to see
and do. We will visit a Scott
ish castle this afternoon and
take tea at another known by
the Jeffs. Seems like we never
have time for anything but
then we do get a lot done so
we must have more time than
we Think
