Amendments For
Farmers Listed
In New SIS Laws
BY c. c. DARBY, Mgr.

Columbus Social Security office
When farm and ranch employees
were first brought under social Sc
curity in 1850, coverage under the
old-age and survivors insurance
program was restricted to those
workers who met a rather strict
nd complicated regularity-of-
work test.
The 1854 amendments changed
the above test. The regularity-of-
work restriction was removed and
replaced by a cash wages test.
Through 1856, if a farm employee
is paid as much as 500 cash wag-
es by any one farm employer in
year his earnings are creditable
for social security purposes and
should be reported by the employ
er to his social security account.
This year a further change has
been made in the coverage test for
farm employees Under an amend
ment which will become effective
beginning with 1857 farm work
will count toward social security
benefits if the worker meets either
Of two conditions. ID If the farm
employer pays him $3.50 or more
in cash during the year; (2) if he
does farm work for an employer
on 20 or more days during a year
for cash pay figured on time
basis (that is, on some unit of time
such as an hour day or week. ra-
ther than on a piece-rate basis.
For the S150-a-year test, both
piece-rate pay and pay based on a
unit of time count and the total
number of days worked does not
matter; for the 20-day test the to-
tai amount of cash pay is not
consideration so long as farm work
is done for one employer on 20 or
more days for cash pay.
The 1854 law did not cover ag-
ricultural work performed by
workers from Mexico hired under
contract or by foreign workers
lawfully admitted from the British
West Indies on temporary basis.
Under the 1856 amendments, SER
vice performed by foreign work
ers admitted to the United States
on temporary basis to perform
agricultural work from any for
eign country will not be covered
by the law after 1856
If you are a farmer or a ranch
er or if you gain a livelihood in
any kind of agricultural or horti-
cultural work, either in employ
ment or self-employment, the So
cial security law as newly amend
ed is important to you and your
family. It is we'll to realize that
this program of social insurance
is now three-fold-it provides old
age benefits for men at age 65 and
for women at 62; it provides sur
