Box 383 FARMERS VOTE ON CORN REFERENDUM NEXT TUESDAY All McHenry county farmers who grew corn in 1956 are eligible to vote in an important referendum on Tuesday, Dec. 11, Bert Bridges, chairman of the Mcirenry County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation committee, announces. The referendum will determine the corn program which is to be available in commercial counties for the 1957 and later crops. The choice will be between a "Soil bank corn base acres ge" program, such as was used this year; or the "Acreage Allotment" provisions which were in effect before 1956. If two-thirds or more of the farmers who vote favor base acreages, they, will be used; if more than one-third favor acreage allotments, they will be in effect. If at least two thirds of the voters approve the use of corn base acreages, the national acreage for apportionment to commercial corn growers in 1957 and later years will be 51 million acres. Price support will be determined by the secretary of agriculture each year, as directed by legislation, at such levels as "will assist producers in marketing corn in the normal channels of trade but not encourage uneconomic production of corn." For 1957, the support level has been set at an average of $1.31 a bushel, and growers must put an acreage equal to 15 per cent of their corn base acreage in the Soil Bank in order to qualify for price support. If more than one-third of the votes approve corn acreage allotments,: the following program will be in effect: The national acreage allotment will be 37,288,- 889 acres for 1957. Price support to. growers whocomply with their com'allotment will be available at a national average of $1.36 a bushel for the 1957 crop; and at a level betweefl 75 and 90 percent of parity for future year crops, according to the supply. The'outcome of the corn referendum will not affect eligibility to participate in the Soil Bank, Mr. Bridges declared. Any farmer with a corn allotment or wtth|| a Soil Bank corn base acreage? for his farm can take part in the acreage reserve for corn. Farmers should study the is-® sues carefully and then be sure to vote their choice. • M AUCTION WILLIAM SULLIVAN Auctioneers EUGENE FREDRICK Having sold the farm the Undersigned will sell at Public Auction on the farm located 3 miles East of Union, 111., or 6 miles Northwest of Huntley, I'll., on FRIDAY, DECEMBER 14 1956.
