Sincerely, Bettye Rose Rouse Betty Carlyle Linda Kaye Hill DON'T Til HANDS OF HEIRS WHDi YOU WRIT! YOUR WILL THE AD In the back of the pa * per said the farm had 190 acres, 80 of them good for crops, another 80 good for cattle grac ing, and the rest in timber. There was a seven-room bouse, the usual out-buildings, a pond and a pas ture. The price had been $39,000, and was now reduced to $30,000. A Arm offer of $29,000 probably would have bought it. But this is not a farm story. It Is a retirement story, directed to older parents who have property or money to leave to their chil dren. The farm was a fine one, up until recent times. The man who had owned it started out on the place as a tenant, did well, bought it, expanded, and built the seven room house. He produced three sons and two daughters, sent them all to college. In his later years he settled down to muse in satisfaction on his achievements, which were indeed fine ones. In time he died. He left his fine farm to his widow, with the ex pressed wish that it stay in the family to support the widow, then pass on to the five children to give them lifetime security. The farm would do as well by them as it had done by him, he said. But crop allotments came. Ten ants went And Ave children who had gotten a taste of the outside world while at college never moved back. The 70-year-old wid ow, isolated and alone in a house she couldn't maintain, and on a farm that didnt At the pattern of modern agriculture, moved into town to be near a son. Thus the ad in the paper?for an abandoned farm that no longer held appeal for the family and that was now an economic liabil ity. But a farm?and this is the key to the story?that the old gentleman who developed It wae quite sure would serve his heirs well... and would get up out of the cemetery and fight if some body told him it had become a dud. What the old gentleman did was less obvious than the one who left the buggy-whip factory. BUt it's the same sort of thing. And it is happening in varying degree almost every time a suc cessful older man leaves a will. What was good for him will be good for the next generation?he just knows that Yet there is sel dom a man who can outguess eco nomics for two generations in a row. Here are the primary areas where men are making mistakes when they presume to know what will be happening when they are gone. THE FAMILY HOME. Chang ing neighborhoods, slum clear ance, and condemnations for su per-highways are making any body's home a tentative matter these days. THE FAMILY BUSINESS. Men still are leaving their business to their families with instructions. that they cant be sold or with re strictions on how they must be run. The expansion of chain busi ness and the sudden shifts in the fortunes of the neighborhood where the business is located, new products and new fashions in buying are wrecking many of these legacies. INVESTMENTS. The man does nt live nowadays who can know for sure that his investments will be the best investments five years after he goes. To tie the hands of those he leaves his investments to is to court disaster. Htm GOLDEN TEAKS SSwn* MM ?W ???. SnS I* U ctin (mm tUmm). vm cars, an isn. Gmi camJ KM, HtmYwfc IT. M. T. SAY YOU SAW IT IN THE TIMES - SENTINEL Winter Cover Stressed Don't let your land lay bare. Hut's advice from Rufus Elks. Jr., Duplin ASCS office manager, as harvest of sum mer row crops get under way. Every bare acre of cropland should be seeded in a cover crop this fail to put green roots in the soil this winter to pre vent erosion and loss of plant food through leaching. It's time now to make plans to do this seeding, Mr. Elks says. While funds last cost-share as sistance in establishing winter cover is available through the Duplin County ASCS office. Mr. Elks reminds farmers that they must first sign up under the Agricultural Conservation Program and be approved by the county committee to carry out this practice. Last fall 1528 Duplin famers established 14821 acres of veg etative cover for winter pro tection farm erosion-, earning $29,965.00 in ACP cost-share payments, Mr. Elks noted. He added that the winter cover pracitces was one of the most popular conservation me asures in North Carolna. Last year, 38,704 farms seeded 394, 704 acres in this practice. Tar Heel farmers earned $815,640, 00 in ACP cost-shares on win ter cover. Pink Hill NOTE or THANKS This is bat a feeble expres sion of "Thanks" to the many Mends and relatives who did so much for me during my long stay in N. C. Memorial Hosiptal. I appreciate every inquiry, call, card, letter, gift, flowers and the many prayers for my recovery. I know these things were lar gely responsible for the suc cessful operation and my re covery up to now. Thank you most sincerely and may God bless you all. Bessie Kornegay. Alberston. N. C.
