One of the largest votes ever
in Carson County was recorded in
the Wheat Referrendum last Thurs-
day. The final total of votes
cast was 438 with 55 against mar-
keting quotas and 383 in favor of
quotas.
While this was one of the highest
votes ever recorded the precent of
eligible voters casting votes was
far short of what it should have
been. Any issue pertaining to wheat
should have a big percentage of
the county’s wheat growers vot-
ing.
