The Story Told
By A Kitchen
Demonstrator
By OPAL CLAYTON
County Home Demonstration Agent
Mrs. Sam Roach, winner of sec-
ond place as 1939 Kitchen Demons-
trator in Montague County, told
the following story of her work at
the achievement event of the Saint
Jo, Home Demonstration Club.
■ "I have had a suppressed desire
£ for a long time to do something
(about that dull, dark, worn kitchen
| of mine, so I welcomed the opport-
j unity to be Kitchen Demonstrator
Jthis year."
"One can become so used to a
[drab, gray work room that the act
[ Of transforming it into a place of
sauty and convenience seems no-
ling less than the magic of fairy
imother. Neverthless, it pro-
lised to be an interesting job."
"I was blessed with a vivid im-
ination (or so I have been told)
id this was a time for it to come
[to my rescue, with the help of
numerous home-making magazines,
iendly suggeestions, family needs,
id the advise of our County De-
lOnstration Agent."
"The first thing I wanted my new
itchen to have was light. There
a northwest window over my
i, but the dull dark walls of the
Itchen gave little reflection, and
en on a bright day, I often need-
artificial light to work. By re-
iving the door to the pantry and
lltting as large an opening as was
sible, the two tiny rooms be-
le one large one. Light from
He pantry then streamed through
tie glass door and gave light aod
ventilation to the entire room."
"The door we removed was hung
another opening that led to a
le back bedroom thus eliminat-
Saint Jo Texas
ing entrance that had always been
unsightly. A light switch for the
breakfast room and a double wall
socket for both refrigerator and
iron were placed conveniently in
the kitchen. Shelves for odd dishes
etc. were built in the former pantry
opposite the kitchen window and
one open shelf was built under each
of the enclosed cabinet shelves.
"My son and I armed ourselves
with paint and brushes and began
painting. We used semi-lustre
ivory for the walls and ceilings,
j. /.o inside shelves and inner open-
ings, table tops, chair seats, stove
sets, and glass jars for food stor-
age, became light blue. The shelf
edges, door hingers, handles, fast-
eners, and jar tops were trimmed
in cardinal red."
"The floor covering is an inex-
pensive linoleum, ivory back-
ground with blue, red, and a little
black constitute its colors, which
blend pleasingly with the ivory
walls and blue and red trim."
"New accessories added consist of
a waste basket, a garbage can, pots,
kitchen stool, a cup towel rack, a
towel rack, a soap dish and a match
case. Some I bought, and some
were gifts."
"I have plenty of artificial light
in my kitchen, one light over the
sink; one in the center of the kitc-
hen that is sufficient for the stove
and ironing board and one light
in the breakfast room."
"The storage space above my ca-
binet and in the breakfast room be-
low the china closet is sufficient
for our needs. The inside of my
storage space has been cleaned and
made sanitary."
"The cost of improving my kitc-
hen is as follows:
$13.40—paint, lumber, and nails
12.00—carpenter work and labor
9.40—floor covering
3.15-light wire, socket, & labor
.25—flower pots
,75-garbage can & waste basket

Notes From the
County Agent
By A. S. ELLIOTT
State Board Meeting
County Agents G. R. Warren,
i Denton County, Chas. McKamy,
Denton County farmer, Homer D.
1 Wade, Dallas County, and A. S.
| Elliott, Montague County, met with
the State Soil and Water Conserva-
j tion Board in Temple last Wednes-
day and Thursday. The group urged
t that the state board create a district
in this area and announce an elec-
tion date for the landowners to vote
on such a proposed district. A
compromise was also reached by
the group over the boundaries of
the district. In the new arrange-
ment, Dallas and Tarrant counties
will be in one district to themselves
and not as a part of the Denton—
Elm Fork watersheds.

Cotton Referendum Set
Texas cotton farmers will again
go to the polls on December 9,
1939 to cast their vote in a south-
wide poll to determine whether or
not cotton marketing quotas will be
in effect for 1940. If 75 percent of
the fawners who vote are in favor
of the quotas, the 1940 cotton crop
will be held near a 12,000,000 bale
figure. Even if the quotas are de-
feated. the 1940 agricultural con-
servation program will continue
and the allotments under the two
programs are the same. Market-
ing quotas are devise to assure the
farmers who plant within their al-
lotments that other farmers will
not be permitteed to plant excess-
ive acreages and produce more than
their fair share.

1940 AAA Program Announced
The advance reports of the 1940
AAA program show but few
changes from the 1939 program
that was in effect this year. The
soil building allowance on small
gardens of one-half acre or more
farms has been raised to $20. Home
that contain as much as ten kinds
of vegetables will qualify for a $2
per acre payment. Steps to set up
1940 cotton, peanut and vegetable
allotments are now underway in
the county AAA office. These al-
lotments should all be out a long
time before planting time.
