weeks behind last year’s

payment rates, normal yields
and normal conserving ac
reages would be in the mail
by this week. However, these
data still have not been receiv
ed from our state office and
until it is no notices can be
mailed.
Some of the major changes
in the operation of the pro
gram this year are: (A) Di
'verson must be from the
Higher of the allotment or
the average 1959, 1960 and
T 961 wheat acreage. Such
