REGULATIONS REGARDING
COTTON ACREAGE
Amended regulations relating to
acreage considered planted and not
planted to cotton for the purpose of
compliance under the 1941 Farm Pro.
gram are given by W. H. Covington,
County Administrative Officer of The
Agricultural Adjustment Administra
tion, in quoting recent amendments to
South Carolina Handbook SRB-501
S. C.
“Acreage planted to cotton means
the acreage of land seeded to cotton,
except that the following acreages of
land seeded to cotton shall not be
considered as planted to cotton:
(1) Any acreage disposed of before
reaching the stage of growth at which
bolls are first formed;
(2) Any acreage disposed of with
in 10 days after notice of the amount
of acreage seeded to cotton is given,
where such notice is not given 10
days prior to the time bolls are first
formed;
Provided, That if cotton is seeded
but no cotton reaches maturity, the
smallest of (1) the acreage seeded to
cotton, (2) 3 acres, or (3) 3 percent
of the 1941 farm cotton allotment
shall he considered as acreagf plann
ed to cotton.”
Regulations relating to cotton
acreage as amended should receive
careful study by all overplanted farm
operators if they are to qualify for
benefits under the 1941 Parity, Agri
cultural Conservation, and Supple
mentary Cotton Programs. County A.
A. A. officials, at the present, are
much concerned over the failure of
many overplanted cotton producers
to take prompt action in adjusting
their excess acreage. Persons dispos
ing of excess cotton should im
mediately notify the County office.
The filing of a request for check on
crop disposal does not constitute fin
al action on the part of the produ
cer.

SCHOOL REPORT
(Continued from page one)
meetings held in the County, Dist
rict, and State. Each summer a num
ber of the teachers in our school sys
tem are spending all or a part of
their vacation by attending some
summer school.
The graduates of our High School
are maintaining a high rating given
by the Southern Association. The
Secretary of the Association rates a
school according to the reports re
ceived from the colleges to which its
graduates go. This seems to be a
fair and just way by which a high
school is to be rated. The only crit
icism that we get from the Associa
tion is that some of our classes are
too large, that is, we need more
teachers and that the salaries paid
the teachers are too low. This can
only be remedied by increasing
school revenues.
The Parent-Teachers Assoctation
are showing a very cooperative spirit
in helping to make the school more
effective. Their work the past ses
sion was toward increasing the lib
raries for the schools and beautifying
the school grounds.
Mrs. Longshore, who was the Sup
ervisor of the hot lunch program for
the schools, did a fine piece of work
in promoting hot lunches in the
schools. For some reason, not
clearly understood by us, the hot
lunch program was discontinued two
weeks before the school session end
ed. It was due to orders sent out
from Washington. We are hoping
that the work will be renewed at the
beginning of next session.
Working through the WPA, we
have rebuilt the Drayton Street Ele
mentary School and have been using
it since the first of the year. The au
ditorium, however, it not yet com
pleted and work is still going on with
our hope of having the building com
pleted in sixty days.
Hereto attached is the financial
statement as to the transactions of
the Board of Trustees for the Session
1940-41. Also you will find a copy
of the report filed with the County
Superintendent of Education and the
State Supt. of Education, showing
the enrollment and average attend
ance by grades for .kttb white and
negro schools.
Respectfully submitted,
O. B. Cannon.”
A table of receipts and expendi
tures and a breakdown of attendance
and enrollment by schools and by
grades was also included in the re
port.
Mr. and Mrs. Doug Hornsby and
daughter Nancy, Mr. and Mrs. Ranny
I ' Kirkland and daughter Mollie, are
spending this week at Flora Beach,
near Myrtle Beach.
