A cotton comforter program,
as a iiupplement to the cotton 1
matresB program, has been start--
ed in North Carolina, announces
Miss Ruth Current, State home
demonstration agent of N. 3.
State College. Every family who
has received a cotton mattress is
eligible to rereive four pounds of
cotton and 10 ya'^ds of percale
with which to make a comfort.
The program of distributing
surplus cotton to low income
families is sponsored by the State
College Extension Service, the
Agricultural Adjustment Adminis
tration and the Surplus Market
ing Adminifrtration of the U. S.
Department of Agriculture.
I Although the mattrean program
did not start until mid gammer of
1940 in most of the counties al
ready 39,069 mattresses have been
made in 83 counties, and about
[46,000 more applications are on
hand. Of these, osme 24,000 have
been aj>proved and cotton and
ticking is on* hand in the counties
for making these mattresses.
We feel that the comforter
program will be a great aid in
our program of helping low in-
Icome rural families^ Miss ^Current
declared. “We expect to place
50 pound cotton mattresses 'n
100,000 North Carolina farm
homes and that means all of these
families can receive a comfort,
thereby sleeping not only on a
corner of the eotton suririus but
under a part of H.” «
The comforts will be made in
tile mattresfi making centers, and
February p6 in the courthouse at
Trpy, Mol^tgomety County.
'C. F. Parrish, head of t>he State
'oUege Extension poultry oflEice
who is in charge of the short
courses, says that sehools also
