Cormick County is for the oenefit

financial assistance to meet the e-
mergencies resulting from the re

to provide funds for financing
the normal fall and early winter
crop and feed requirements of

Many New Fea
tures Added To
S. C. State Fair
Many new features are being
added to the South Carolina State
Fair’s 76th annual exposition,
which this year is aptly termed
“Victory Celebration.”
A captured Jap Zero plane, an;
exhibit by the United States Navy,
which marks the first appearance
of the sea service at the State
quate to meet their needs.
Mr. Watson pointed out that
eligible farmers desiring to do so
I may apply now for loans to take
care of their crop production
needs for the entire 1946 season.
Loans may include immediate ad
vances to the borrower to meet
his cash requirements this fall,
and the balance of the approved
amount of the loan will be dis
bursed when the borrower needs
it to finance his spring crops.
Farmers who obtain loans for the
production of cash crops, includ
ing funds for the purchase of feed
for work stock and subsistence
livestock, are required to give as
security a first lien on the crops
financed, and the security requir
ed for loans for the purchase or
production of feed for commercial
livestock is a first mortgage on
the stock to be fed.
Mr. Watson emphasized that
these loans are not restricted to
selected applicants but are avail
able to all farmers who can es
tablish eligibility according to the
terms of the loan regulations and
the authorizing act of Congress.
