Agriculturally Speaking Performance Can Not Be Always Judged On Beauty By FRANK W. REAMS, County Agricultural Agent COMING EVENTS July 1-Sept. 30: Time to ap ply for state and federal gas oline tqx refunds (We have extra forms in the office for your use). August 6: Joint meeting Inez Community Club and Home Demonstration Club picnic sup per. August 10-11: N C. State Beekeepers annual meeting, Episcopal Mission, near Boone. August 17: Fourth Lamb Pool?Seaboard Stock Pens, Hamlet. August _: Pians to have a Public demonstration on pre paring loose leaf tobacco will be announced soon. BEAUTY MAY FOOL YOU Henry W. Myrick, Rt. 1, Warrenton produces manufac turing milk. Recently, when visiting ihs farm my attention was centered on a beautiful Jersey cow. No doubt about it, this cow would' score almost 100 per cent on the physical features of the score card. Sev eral favorable comments were made when all of a sudden, Mr. Myrick pointed to another cow, saying in substance, "That cow out-produces this Jersey." In the pictures above you see Mr. Myrick with the Jersey and the odd-shaped oth er cow. Just for the record, this?you have dairy cows for milk, not meat. Both cows would score very low on a beef anical score card but were very high producers of milk. Mr. Myrick keeps a record of his milk production which verified that the odd shaped cow produced about 20 per cent more milk than the Jer sey under the same set of conditions. DHIA records will help solve a lot of these prob lems and it is good that a large number of our dairymen are on this program. AGENTS' FACES TURNED RED Some years ago a bus load of county, agricultural agents visited the Beltsville Experi ment Station near Washington, D. C., to study their dairy work. They had production records of their cows which exceeded 25 years. We had no idea we were about to be taken for a "ride." Four large Holstein cows were lined up and the entire group was requested to place In order the best all-round cow, next best, etc. One cow was beautifully proportioned and one, a raw boned cow with the hip bone sharp enough to support your hat, and the oth er two in between. The research specialist in charge gave us five minutes, then he announced his plac ings. Lo and behold, he came forth with placings based on the production records. The old raw-boned cow was first and the beautiful cow was last. Not a single agent placed this old cow first. This group re ceived a professional tongue lashing that I will never for get. The lesson I received and truthfully believed is "Dairy cows arc kept for milk and not to beautify the place." We were further informed that if you can have both that is an achievement but go for milk production first and beauty follows a slow second. TURKEY GROWERS VOTE Growers voted down a pro posed national marketing order for turkeys in a nationwide referendum June 18-22. Forty three per cent of the produc ers voting favored the pro gram?short of the two-thirds ! required. A marketing order program cannot be put into effect un less it is approved by at least two-thirds of the growers vot ing in a referendum by num ber or by volume of produc tion. ?3K\ ,w. wv .w w. w w ,w. w . 3 HOME DEMONSTRATION CORNER* n EMILY BALLINGER, County Home Economics Agent ANN KILIAN, Asst.

SHOPPING FOR CREDIT j Take time to plan the bestj . way to use your money when i you plan to purchase property, j machinery, automobiles, furni ture. clothing, television sets, I and other things for the home.) j Shopping for the things we ? need takes time, and requires; | a great deal of study and care- j I fill planning, especially when! j we do not have the money. j What Is Credit? j Some families pay cash for i things they got, others ask for j | credit because of low income, j I illness, accidents, or unemploy ment for short periods of time, j Credit means to borrow money | i today and promise to pay it j back in the future. We know it is cheaper to I pay cash for the things we buy ? j than it is to buy on credit. i However, when we ask to use credit it gives us the privlege to build up an honest reputa tion and prove our ability to borrow and repay money. Once you have a good credit rating and a good job you may borrow money as the need arises to improve your farm, your home, and other family | living areas. i The word debt to some peo I pie has a frightening sound, ; but many families have achiev ed a certain standard of living ; and have found that it is nec essary to use credit in order to pay for the things we need. The Borrower i When you borrow money, you must have definite plans and know exatly what you want to accomplish. You must be able and willing to carry out your plans. You must be willing to discuss facts con cerning your income, how much you own, what debts you owe, and how many years it will take to pay off your debts. The Lender The lender must know how you plan to use the money you want to borrow. He will want to know at least three names and addresses of people who know you and something about your character, experience and ability to be honest and re liable. Types of Loans The lender will want to know the type of loan you will need. Will it be a long-term loan? These loans may be used for buying property, building or remodeling homes, etc. They, run for periods of ten to twenty years and sometimes i longer. Will you need an intermed-j iate-tcrm loan? These loans are usually made for purchas ing machinery, plumbing fix tures, making home repairs, and they run for periods from one to five years. The lender will want to know if you will need a short-term loan. These loans are used for purchasing furniture, clothing, television sets, automobiles, etc., and they are repaid within one year or a little longer. Credit can be extremely use ful if it will help the borrower to make financial progress. When we borrow money we are expected to pay the lender something for the use of the money. The cost of this money is what we call interest. When you borrow money decide the kind of loan that will fit your needs best. Will it be a per sonal loan, a V. A. loan, or a F. H. A. loan? Where to Go to Get Loans There arc several places you may go to get loans. You may go to banks, insurance companies, credit unions, sav ings and loan associations, oth er lending institutions and in dividuals. Regardless of where you go. study and plan care fully when you shop for credit.
