“Farmer-District co-operators
in the Fanin Soil Conservaton
District have their farm plans
well under way,” was a recent; nine members present. The class
comment of Will T. Hull of enjoyed their trip to Greenville
m1----- ---v- -v":----to the No. 4 Lake Friday night.
We spent the night there and
cooked supper and breakfast al-
so. The Senior Boys and the
Intermediate Class also went.
Teachers, Mr. Mack Pierson, Mr.
Leon Lipsey and Rev. Earl Al-
len also attended. We had a
wonderful time. We have a
tions of farmers throughout the ', y°nd“fu,1 lessdn Sunday °n
county who had requested as-: ‘Our HelPera In Mlssl°n (Task-

dred twenty-six applications had J do-v Schoo> and Church'
been received as of March 3 at ,
the time o^-the meeting and ap-
plications are still coming in on
work planned for the first per-
iod of this year.
When asked just what kind of
requests were being received
Kuykendal said, “A very defin-
ite pasture improvement pro-
gram will be carried out, judg-
ing from the one hundred sixty-
five requests received from farm-
ers for assistance with that con-
servation practice. Also a large
acreage of alfafa and various
clover are being planted. This
comes under the classification
of ‘crop rotation’ in this year’s
program. The kind of fertilizer
and the amount to use per acre
and the rate of seeding per acre
is being determined by the Soil
Conservation Service technici-
ans.”
“Forty-eight applications have
been received to date for stock
ponds,” Kuykendall futher re-
ported. “Three ponds were re-
cently competed on forms of
three district-cooperators: Mrs.
Annie Bono, Arthur D. Wood-
son, and Frank Lamb.’
Mr. Hull said that an import-
ant part of the report was the
number of farmers who have
requested assistance for con-
struction of terrace systems this
spring where waterways have
been shaped and sodded. “Some-
thing like thirty-five other
farmers are receiving assistance
through the Soil Conservation
Service on waterway applica-
tions, getting ready for terrac*
ing later on.”
Chairman Hull futher com-
mented on the splendid coopera-
tion between three Soil Conser-
vation Districts and the Voca-
tion Agriculture teachers. At the
last meeting of the Board of Dis-
trict Supervisors, a discussion
was held concerning the re-
quest of Ray Taylor, Vocational
Agriculture teacher at the Bon-
ham High School, that the
Board take in consideration the
purchase of a manure spreader
for the use of his students and
their fathers in vocational work.
An agreement was reached by
lun'animous vote to purchase the
spreader. A. H. McDonald, sec-,
retary-treasurer of the District
was directed to contact Taylor
and work out with him the rental

The chairman explains that all
cotton acreage in the county
will be meaursed as soon as pos-
sible after the cotton “Comes
up” to determine compliance with
the acreage allotment-marketing
quota program. When compli-
enee is checked, the farm will
be considered to be within the
farm acreage allotment if the
crop is planted witihn the pre-
measured area. ,
Fannin County cotton growers
can arrange for official measure-
ment of their 1954 farm cotton-
acreage allotments prior to plant-
ing time, the County Agricul-
tural Stabilization and Conser-
vation Committee announced
this week.
To get the premeasurement
service, which is being provided
on a cost basis, a cotton farmer
must file a written request with
the county ASC office prior to

The answers to the roll call*
“Tell Your Favorite Family Me-
mory,” were stories of human
interest which contained humor,
pathos and incidents- of local
history. Thirteen members of the
Lane Home Demonstration Club
and three visitors, Madames
Claude Hunter, Joe Perkins and
Howard Roach told these inter-
esting stories. Mrs. Clarence
McGuire was hostess.
The Subject Matter Leaders,
Mrs. Ernest Berry and Mrs. Eva
Lacy developed the program on
compiling a family log. Mrs.
Lacy reviewed an article taken
from a recent issue of The Read-
er’s Digest written by J. Kard
La'geman. He portrayed the sure
placable value a record can he
in every family—not only of sen-
timental values but of legal
value alo. Mrs. Lacy substanti-
ated several statements the writ-
er made by telling personal and
local incidents she remembered.
Mrs. Berry showed the materi-
als required and the methods
to be used in compiling a record
of family life. Her explanation
revealed these facts—one must
; have a sincere desire to seek
facts. When convinced of the
authority of these facts then to
record them- understandingly.
Pictures which will substantiate
facts will make the record doubly
interesting to posterity.
Mrs. McGuire showed many
pictures of the McGuire—Hunter
families she had acquired. These
pictures created much interest
and made Mrs. Berry’s talk very
realistic. She gave the address
of a company which sold the
needed materials, cost 70c. Ad-
dress Ellison Photo Co. Austin,
Tex.
A high light of the program
was a Canvas oil painting of a
large brown tree trunk, which
bore the name of the EDC Lewis
family. The limbs of this tree
each bore a family members
name.Mrs. Lacy remembered the
man who came through the
country presenting these pic-
tures. In those “horse and
buggy days”, the traveler
spent the night with
family upon whom he
calling when dark fall's,
“put” this talented man up for
the night she humorously ex-
plained.
The program was closed by
reports from the four ladies
held at TSCW in Denton.
Mesdames Marion Pierce, Jabo
Sears, Ernest Sprinkle and Paul
Manning attended different class-
es on shrubs, plants, propaga-
tion of same and landscaping.
These reports will be given in
detail at needed times during
the year. In this way more in-
formation can be given which
will enable club members
practice proven methods.
