Coleman producers signed . 830
farms under these programs
for 1973. This compares with
863 sighed last year.
Quite a bit more cotton is
being transferred this year
than last year. This transfer,
program continues through
April 2 of this year. There are
41 farms on which the. cotton
has not been ’Signed under the
program, neither has this, cot-
ton been released to the Coun-
ty Committee or leased or
transferred to other farms.
Producers failing to plan and
report, release to the County
Committee, or transfer will
lose 20 percent of their .allot-
ment and a third of their cot-
ton yield.
Operators of, farms in this
category will receive a letter in
regard to handling of their
cotton and -allotment.
We will be making .a special
effort in a few days to receive
certification on wheat and
barley. These include farms,
which are substituting wheat !
and/or barley for milo. These
crops must be certified on or i
before May 1.
Producers who have signed j
feed grains and cotton have
until the last day of June to
certify these crops and their

Chamber Banquet,
Get-Together And
Budget Discussed
The Coleman Chamber of
Commerce Board of Directors
met last Wednesday afternoon
for their monthly session ot the
Chamber office.
Members present were Hugh
Stempel, Ort Keatts, Sammy
Edingtori, Alex Mayers, Ray Don
Johnson; Marian Holdridge, -1.
T. Myers, Arnold Allcorn. Gil
der Adams arid Ross Jones.
Benny Allcorn, Mona and
Donna" Davis, Bruce Ransberger, I
Billy Paul Casselberry and Ka-1
ren Kingsbery were the Junior.
Directors attending.
A County Banquet report
showed that the recent affair,
with fine community support,
was a success, with some 300
persons being served. In the
past, the annual banquet has
cost the Chamber approximately
$600. This- 'year, no money was
lost, and the Bluecat Band Boos- j
ters profited by ' catering the j
meal.
“Many feel that this type of j
banquet cut out the ‘county
people’. This disturbs us”, says i
Chamber President tlugh Stem.-1
pel. “We plan to have a county :
ggt-together this slimmer and I
have residents bring their own
covered dish food. Then we can
visit as long as we wish, and
not have to sit in one place for
two hours and then get up and :
go home.”
New ‘business included qpprb-
val of the 1973 budget. Each;
committee chairman gave a re- j
port on his program. .
“We have many things work-
ing and at a later date will fill
the people in on our accomplish-
ments”, stated Stempel.
