wishes to receive credit for
having planted cotton and
be eligible for his cotton
payments.
Certification
Certifying the crop acre
age on farms in 1967 must
bo done by the operator of
each individual farm.
However, a farm operator
may designate to someone
in writing, to act in his
place to report the acreage.
This acreage must be ac
cuiate according to the
farmer’s knowledge. Many
farmers believe the fields
planted are important in
certifying the acreage. This
county office does not have
to know what fields you
have planted, only the to
tal acreage planted. It will
be time saving to both the
farmer and the office em
ployees if each farmer has
Iris acreage totaled at the
time of the visit to the of
fice for certifying.
Farmers wishing any in
formation on certifying the
acreage planted on their
farm, are encouraged to
come into the county of
fice for assistance. The fi
nal date to certify to
wheat is May 31 and June
30 for cotton, tobacco, pea
nuts, corn and other land
uses.
Cotton Referendum
Cotton referendum re
sults will be announced la
ter this week. 206 farm
ers casted ballots in the
referendum held May 15
through May 19, 1967.
These ballots will be
opened and tallied Wed
nesday morning, May 25.
Agriculture Conservation

A BULLETIN
Kate
If the Wren can sing in the rain, so can
you.
If God can forgive' again, so can you.
It matters not about yesterday,
And tomorrow’s still too far away,
Count today, to thine own self be true.
Sometimes it’s pretty
hard not to get “down in
the dumps,” especially
when every day living
causes so many perplexi
ties and frustrations. When
I get to feeling low, I try
to remember one thing of
which my mother remind
ed me. It was always:
“This, too, shall pass
away.”
The weather this past
week was nearly perfect
for pleasant living— not too
cool and not actually hot —
but lots of wonderful sun
shine. It really makes me
too ambitious and then I
find out that I’m just not
the “spring chicken” I’d
like to be. Now that’s
FRUSTRATION!
Here are some good
definitions of time taken
from an article I’ve read
recently: To the philoso
pher, time is sorrow and
distance; to youth it is
something that goes on
forever; to the poet, it’s a
morning glory dead at
noon; to the old man, it’s
something that slipped
through his fingers; to the
woman in labor, it is
something that has mo
mentarily stopped. Every
thing is a slave to time.
What is time?
You know most of us
take so many things for
granted. We may remem
ber to say a verbal word
of thanks and that’s that.
A pleasant change from this
came about this past week.
Angie Wright (Mrs. David)
said her thanks to a group
of ladies in a very sweet
way, which was enjoyed
so very much. Angie was
among several women to
attend a workshop on
chair-caneing, taught by
Mrs. Helen Wood, Mrs.
Hazel Byrum and Miss
Harriett Leary. I, too, at
tended the workshop, tak
ing along my chair to be
re-caned. Our instructors
were most kind and pati
ent and we all accomplish
ed work to be proud of.
Anyhow, this past week
Mrs. Wright—Angie—had a
tea to show her apprecia
tion to these ladies and we
were all invited. She
served it English style and
as such was very delicious.
By the way, Dr. and Mrs.
Wright certainly have an
attractive home overlook
ing Pembroke Creek and
their three nice children
make it complete. Nice
gai—Angie.
Another nice person,
liked by everyone, is Mar
tha (Mrs. Clarence Brit
ton), who has a cheery
word and smile wherever
she goes. And by the way,
Martha always enjoys eat
ing fish—even to herring
breakfasts. Here is a
recipe for a delicious des
sert, just in time for the
fresh strawberry season—
this from Martha, too.
Dissolve 1 package of
strawberry jello in a pint
of heavy cream, then
whip. Prepare three pints
ai strawberries, slice and
sprinkle with % cup pow
dered sugar. Cut fresh
angel food cake in 3 lay
ers. Spread cream on first
layer, then berries. Repeat
on second layer and frost
