The fact is, few cars at any
price hold-the road with Chevy’s
grace, with its solid feeling of
stability. And with horsepower
up to 225, Chevrolet moves out
like a whiplash, for safer passing,
it’s no wonder that so many peo-
ple who used to buy higher priced
cars are changing to Chevrolet!

Farmers May Get
Tax Claim Forms
At County Agents
Farmers can* secure the gaso-
line tax claim form and the 15-
page booklet from their county
agent to claim a refund of fed-
eral tax paid on gasoline order-
ed for farming purposes, accord-
ing to Mr. Hamlett, collection
officer of the Brownwood office.
The Texas Extension Service is
cooperating with Internal Reve-
nue Service in supplying farm-
ers forms 2240 to claim their
gasoline tax refunds. Internal
Revenue has furnished each
county agent a sufficient supply
of forms for each farmer in the
county. Mr. Hamlett advised
farmers to drop by their county
agent’s office to get Publication
No. 308, entitled “Farmer’s Gas
Tax Refund’’, and their form
2240.

Requirements for participation
in the 1956 Acreage Reserve Pro-
gram under the “Soil Bank Act”
Public Law 540, were announced
recently by Secretary of Agricul-
ture Ezra Taft Benson. County
Agricultural Stabilization and
Conservation Committees, which
will administer the program, will
announce locally when the pro-
gram agreements are available
for signature by farmers in the
county office. At that time they
will have full information on
the terms and conditions.
The 1956 program, as provided!
by the law, contains special pre-
visions and payments which en-
able farmers to participate this
year. Any farmer who otherwise
complies with the provisions of
the Acreage Reserve will be
eligible for payment ii;
1. He has underplanted his
Soil Bank com base or his allot-
ment for cotton, rice, tobacco,
1 peanuts, or wheat (when planted
to spring wheat) and he certi-
fies that he underplanted (a) in
anticipation of complying with
the J956 Acreage Reserve or (b)
because of adverse weather con-
■ditions; or
2. He has underplanted his 1956
allotment for winter wheat and
certified that this was done be-
cause of adverse weather condi-
tions; or
3. He has complied with his
Soil Bank corn base or his farm
allotment for a particular crop,
but an acreage of the crop was
not harvested because of destruc-
tion by natural causes; or
4. The farmer is in an area
where an established final date
set for the basic commodity for
his area is subequent to May 28
and he plows or otherwise physi-
cally incorporates the crop into
the oils, or clips, mows, or cuts
the crop after May 28 and prior
to June 30 or the established
date, whichever is later. tThe
“established final date” will be
the last date on which the acre-
age of a basic crop may be ad-
justed in order to bring it into
compliance with the acreage al-
lotment of the regular produc-
tion adjustment program).
1956 Acreage Reserve Program Of
Soil Bank Announced in Washington
Maximum and minimum acre-
ages of the basic crops which
may be placed in the Acreage
Reserve have been established
as follows (except that where
the allotment is less than the
specified acreage minimum or
maximum, the total allotment
shall be considered as the mini-
mum or the maximum):
For corn, the maximum is the
larger of half the corn base
acreage or 50 acres. The mini-
mum is the larger of 10 percent
of the base acreage or 5 acres.
For wheat, the maximum is the
larger of half the wheat allot-
ment or 50 acres. The minimum
is the larger of 10 percent of the
allotment or 5 acres.
Fort cotton, the maximum is
the larger of half the allotment
or 10 acres. The minimum is the
larger of 10 percent of the allot-
ment or 2 acres.
For peanuts, the maximum is
the larger of half the allotment
or 10 acres. The minimum is the
larger of 10 percent of the allot-
ment or 1 acre.
The payment which a farmer
may earn for participating in the
Acreage Reserve will be deter-
mined by multiplying a base unit
rate by a yield factor. The na-
tional average rates for 1956
crops are: Corn, 90 cents per bu-
shel; cotton, 15 cents per pound;
wheat, $1.20 per bushel;
$2.25 per hundredweight;
nuts, 3 cents per pound.
The payments will be deter-
mined as follows:
For underplanting the corn
base or the allotment for cotton,
rice, tobacco, peanuts, or wheat
(when planted to spring wheat),
the payment rate will be based
on the normal yield for the de-
signated acreage.
For underplanting 1956 win-
ter wheat, because of adverse
weather, the payment will be $4
per acre.
For destruction due to natural
causes or for plowing or other
wise physically incorporating the
crop into the soil, or for clipping,
mowing, or cutting the crop, the
payment will be based on the
smaller of an appraised yield for
the field or the normal yield for
the farm, but will not be less
than $6 per acre.
Provisions of the Conservation
Reserve part of the Soil Bank
will be announced as soon as
practical. Under this part of the
program, a farmer will be able to
earn two types of payment — an
annual payment to help compen-
sate for income which he would
have received if the “reserved”
land had been in crop, and a pay-
ment representing a percentage
of the cost of establishing con-
servation practices on such land.
The same acreage on a farm
may not be included under both
the Acreage Reserve and the
Conservation Reserve parts of
the Soil Bank.
