Farm workers social security eligibility rules outlined
The article explains that berry, cotton, and bean pickers lack social security coverage unless paid at least $50 per calendar quarter and regularly employed for at least three months by the same farmer. After three months, continued work must be for the same employer at least 60 days every three months with $50 wages to remain covered. Changing employers requires a new three month period. The policy aims to establish regular employment before social security rights apply.

Tar Heels Try New Turkey Breed in Edon and Anson County
Growers including Dupree Griggs of Anson County and Bruce Simpson with Reese Trull of Union County raise Jersey and Bronzel turkeys. About 1,000 and 2,000 birds respectively are being produced this year. The Pooults originated from Hoyle Griffin’s breeder flock and were Hatched at Belk's Turkey Hatchery in Mon-Toc. Herrick notes growers are pleased with the new breed as Mon-Toc’s turkey plant seeks birds for all weight classes while the United Kingdom remains the largest buyer of unmanufactured tobacco, importing 25 percent of global leaf exports in 1950.
