Applications may be made for sales since August 5, 1945, and through June 30, 1946. Questions have been asked in regard to the sale of lambs through commission houses and whether subsidies would be al lowed for lambs sold under that condition. Lambs in that case still belong to the farmer and he is eligible to receive the pay ment. They must be sold to an authorized slaughterer and the agent is simply the go-between. Feeder lambs are not entitled to a subsidy unless sold for feed ing to an authorized slaughterer. Evidence consisting of invoices, sales tickets, account purchases, slaughter sheets, receipts which will show time of slaughter, pur chase price, number of head, to tal live weight, whether sheep or lambs.
