Letter To Committee Chairmen And Others Who Helped With The Wilkes Farmers Day Program Please accept our congratula tions and thanks tor your help In making the 4th annual Farmers' Day program what has been de scribed as the beet of its kind ever held in Wilkes county. More than 500 persons were involved in one way or another in making possible the extensive parade and other entertainment and educa tional features of the day. Such a program required not only fi nancial help, very generously subscribed by many of our busi ness firms, but also organization, supervision, promotion and direc tion. 4 We were glad to observe that three of the state papers carried a description of the program, and within the last few days we have had requests from several news paper editors, chamber of com merce executives and agricultur al leaders from towns in this state and agricultural leaders from towns in this state and oth er states as far south as Georgia asking for details on the organ ization and promotion of our Farmers'^Day. We also appreciate the kind remarks of Mr. L. Y. Ballentine, Commissioner of Ag-! rjculture, and Dr. M. 15. Gardner of N. C. State College, who stat ed they had never attended a ^better program of this type. It was a real pleasure to work with you on this program, and again we want to thank you sincerely for a job well done. Very truly yours, R. R. (Roby) CHURCH, General Chairman Farmers' Day Program. TOM S. JENRETTE, Manager. ? -v. Gilreath News The Pine Hill land was sold Wednesday at Auction. A Mr. Sparks, of Union Grove, was the purchaser.

Barnette, Mr. Walter Chatham, Jack Queen, Mrs. China Lavendar and son Dicky, of Boone, spent Sun day in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Lester Eller, of Lansing. The folks at the road meeting made a bad mistake when they said there wasn't any orchards on the ridge. There are nine orchards on the main ridge road. And ten orchards off the ridge road which ? have to enter into the ridge road before being sold, been a patient at the Wilkes hos Mr. Eugene Reavis, who has pital, returned to his home Thursday. Dairy Farmers Increase Income In Winter Months Raleigh. ? Agriculture Com missioner L. Y. Ballentine thinks a lot of North Carolina dairy farmers are missing an opportun ity to increase their incomes by failing to fit their production to market trends. "Records show that North Car olina's milk flow is heaviest in the spring and summer, when consumption is at a low ebb,'' said Ballentine, himself a dairy farmer. "And, conversely, our production begins dropping in the fall, when demand is increasing. "Our experience of the past year is a glaring example. Grade A milk delivered to distributors by North Carolina producers rose from 19,291,507 pounds in No vember last year to a peak of 33,708,662 pounds in May this year, and continued between 31 and 32 million pounds during June, July and August. Since then our milk flow has been de clining. "As a result, we are now faced with the necessity of bringing in 15,000 to 20,000 gallons of Grade A milk a day from other states, while only a couple of months ago we were wondering what to do with surplus sup plies. "We must find means of re versing this situation. The way to do it, I believe, is by breeding more cows to freshen in the late summer and fall instead of dur ing the spring and early summer. It is especially important to breed heifers for timely freshening. Too many dairymen have been follow ing the old farm practice of timing fresh cows for green pas tures. It is now more important to be guided by market trends in breeding dairy animals. "Some producers have leatned this lesson and now are reaping the benefits of a strong demand at good prises. Others need to profit by their example." The Commissioner of agricul ture pointed out that last spring and summer wholesale milk pric es tumbled when Grade A pro d u c e r s swamped distribution plants with a record flow. In some sections of the state prices on surplus Orade A supplies, or that part of the total production in excess of current fluid de mands, dropped as low as 93 a hundred pounds. Now, with pro duction lagging, he added, North | Carolina dairy farmers can sell all the Grade A milk they can produce at prices ranging from 95.50 to 96.00 a hundred pounds. "When our dairymen learn to adjust production to consumption habits," Ballentine concluded, "I think we will be able to elimi nate, or at least to reduce to a trickle, the flow of milk im ports." The State Soil Conservation Committee recently authorized expansion of the Lower Cape Pear Soil Conservation District to include New Hanover county. Other counties in the district are Columbus, Branswick, Blad en, and Pender. New Hanover is the 88th North Carolina county to become organized in a soil conservation district. Glad Book For Blue Moods Urged By Psychologist New York, N. Y.?Want to master your moods when you're depressed? A cheer-up formula with a kick to it is keeping a Glad Book, declares Dr. Ernest Dichter, New York psychologist. "The Glad Book is nothing more than a little notebook In which you write, in as much de tail as possible, exactly how you 'feel on your 'best* days," says Dr. Dichter in the November Journal of Living. "Describe your physical state, and your 'mental state. Tell how you fee! 'about your family, your friends, 'your work, your health, your 'prospects. Jot down anything which might have had a bearing on the cheerful mood you're in." | By describing your happy frame of mind in writing, the psychologist points out, you give it visible form, the reality of ink and paper. Jt becomes something tangible which you hare once possessed and know you can possess again. As the entries begin to pile up, your Glad Book will give you many clues to what makes you feel good. If you take pains to note the physical and mental events leading up to your good days, you can deliberately seek, these experiences again on your* moody, "blue" days. Regard your Glad Book as a strictly personal affair, the Journal of Living article adds. Understand that no one else Is ever to see it.
