With the arrival of disabil ity payments in May, farmers and their families now have the same social security protection other workers have had for some time. TTiis protection requires social se curity coverage for five years out of the ten years before disability. Since farming was first covered in 1955, farmers completed their fifth year with 1959. Additional requirements for en titlement to disability benefits are: Inability to do substantial work and being at least 50 years old. Persons under 50 who meet the other re quirements should apply for freezing of their earnings record. a—Batted for Satterfield in 8th. Clinton 076 200 210—18 Kohler 032 000 000— 5 2B—Malpass, T.
