Sept. 28: Poultry Show?2 p. m.; sale? 3 p. m. Sept. ?: Farm Bureau mem bership underway. You owe it to yourself to be a member of ' an organization that voices your affairs. Sept. 25: Cotton Field Day at Experiment Station (Exper iment Station located between Rocky Mount and Princeton). Sept. 30: Final date to apply for state and federal gasoline tax refunds. PICK COTTON EARLY To obtain the highest yield and the maximum price you should pick your cotton early. The record shows that Septem ber picked cotton brings in more green backs, falls off fast in October and you take a licking in November and De cember. It is realized that farmers do have jobs other than picking cotton but if you can arrange early harvesting you surely add to your profits This is especially necessary since the boll weevils are tak ing such a heavy toll this year. As shown in coming events, the Cotton Field Day for this area will be held at the Ex periment Station near Rocky Mount. This event was sched uled for September 20 but postponed until September 25 which ran smack into activities of the local fair. Cotton is still a very important crop in Warren County and you are urged ? to attend this program. As it now stands, Mr. Hardage and I will be tied up with fair activities which in all probabil ity will prevent our attend ance. PERFORMANCE SALE Seen at the . Performance Tested Beef Animal Sale at Rocky Mount were T. P. Hicks, Bt 1, Norlina, K. E. Fleming, Rt. 2, Henderson, S. M. Gard ner, Rt. 1, Macon, and J. C. Davis, Rt. 3, Warrenton. It was good to see these beef an imal producers interested in this method of encouraging higher quality animals. CORN PRODUCTION You have heard the saying "He can't see the trees for the forest," which can be al most the case in the picture above, "You can't see the Fowlers for the corn." There is no doubt about it, the tall well developed corn has en gulfed Martin, Jimme and L. A. to the extent they look comparatively small. This corn will come in han dy when entertaining all those pigs going through their pig parlor. These boys are really in the pig business, so vol umes of corn and other diet balancing ingredients are re quired to put pounds on the pigs in this 365-day operation. Mr. Fowler reports 500 lbs. 2-12-12 was applied at planting and 70 lbs. nitrogen applied as toR dressing. Weed control was applied at time liquid ni trogen was applied, which re sulted in excellent weed con trol.

Tuesday, Sept. 23: 1:00 p. m., Wise Home Demonstration week, we discussed "Family Financial Planning." After con sidering your overall financial plan, and after classifying the type of income you receive, now is the time for actual bud geting. "Family Budgeting" is our topic for this week. FAMILY BUDGETING What Is A Budget? A budget is simply an esti mate of money the family will have to spend and how they will spend it for a period of time. It is one of the tools in financial planning. The problem of matching income and expense can be made eas ier by proper financial plan ning and control of the fam ilies money budget is a plan for the estimated income, it is not a record. What Can A Budget Do? A budget will not solve all financial problems, but it can do these things: 1. Help the family see their financial problems. 2. Aid in reaching important objectives. 3. Helps the family to make wise decisions. 4. Helps to reduce family ar-i guments. 5. Helps the family to main tain a good standard of living. 6. Helps to teach children good financial habits. How to Make A Budget Work 1. Plan with the family. 2. Have a clear idea of why you are trying to budget. State clearly short time and long time goals. 3. Spend several weeks in keeping detailed record of ex penses so you will know where the money is going, this will help you to decide where your money should go. 4. Use the common sense approach. Have enough but not too many headings in your record (Green book is good). Headings should be based on family spending habits. 5. Make your division accord ing to family's needs and wants. Averages and other printed spending guides will (probably) not fit your family needs. 6. Think first?act later. If an expense item looks too j high, find out if it is really high and why it is high. Plan carefully when trimming or adjusting budget amounts. ' 7. I.ay aside a little each ra'.nth to take care of big ex insurance, etc. Don't try to meet all big ex pense* out of one pay check. & Know who is in charge of what! Each family member should know his responsibili ties. 9. Keep your record but don't worry about every pen ny. Each family member can have an allowance. (Each per son having an allowance should know what it is to be spent for ?school supplies, lunches, hose, transportation, etc. 10. Have a clear cut system for dividing up pay check. 11. Don't try to cheat on your budget. 12. Keep your budget flexi ble?make adjustments when and where necessary. Let it out here?tuck it in there. Make it fit the family income. Sound Reasoning A man went into a pet shop to buy a parrot. All the par rots were gone. The clerk suggested buying a woodpecker instead. "Well, can he talk?" asked the man. "No, but if you dig the I Morse code, he'll give you a lot of fun," the clerk replied. North Carolina had 3,800 Grade A dairymen in 1961 as compared with only 1,000 in 1941.
