Farmers may volunteer
highly erodible cropland for en
try into the Conservation
Reserve Program, under a pro
vision of the Food Security Act
of 1985, Pool said.
“We are pleased with the
response from farmers durinf
the 1986 signup’ said Pool.
*“Now that producers are aware
of the other provisions of the
Act, such as sodbuster and
conservation compliance, we
expect even more interest by
firoducers in the Conservation
eserve Program this year.”
Producers wishing to put
land into the program are efi)gi
ble for cost-sfiare ayments of
up to 50 percent o? t}‘;e eligible
costs to establish a cover crop.
The annual rental payments
are for 10 years.
The total amount of rental
payments for any fiscal year
may not exceed $50,000, or its
equivalent if in-kind payments
are made, Pool said.
He said producers will be
allowed to harvest their 1986
crop before the contract
becomes effective, if necessary.
Land that is designated
may not be grazed after the

presentlg' goinfi to open the
new middle school and we're
air-conditioning Summerville
Elementary gchool. We're
remodeling the gym floor at
Lyerly an buikfizg two new
classrooms at Menlo. We have
some repair work and roofing
to do at Pennville,
THE NEWS: What are
your feelings on QBE?
COOK: %Ne have the best
opportunity for education
we've had in our county for a
long time with QBE .and the
sales tax passing. We're going
to be able to lower the number
of students in each classroom,
which will help. QBE will pro
vide more funds for this; we'll
have two or three new teachers
at Menlo this year. I agree with
most of QBE because it will
help us. I don’t agree with all
of it because we've had to cut
special education because of
QBE, but I think it will be ad
justed very shortly. That will
take care of keeping special ed.
We're getting more money
from the state under %BE and
I feel it will help the education
system in our county.

we have a lot of room for im

improve our school system. It's
a good system and I'm proud
