Extension News ( | PAIGE L. UNDERWOOD If ? lot of the furnishings in your home have smooth surfaces, like glass, chrome, wood or plastic, you have a great cool look for the warm summer months. But you might like some low-cost ideas for warming up those slick, shiny surfaces now that the winter wind has started to blow. For example, you can warm up the looks of any room just by adding some soft fuzzy textures. An easy and inexpensive way to do this is to add some throw pillows with covers made of a nubby fabric. Or, if you already have some pillows, all they need is a dif ferent cover for the winter months. Another trick is to transform your tables into cozy looking accessories. All you need to do is skirt them with fabric. Any size table can be skirted, even a large dining table. Although round tables are easiest to work with, you can skirt a square table, too. Just make a round wood or heavy cardboard top a bit larger than the square and place it on the tabletop. Then lay a soft fabric over the table and let it drape to the floor. Adding a table skirt and a few fuzzy pillow covers will give a new look and warm touch to a room. Runs Low v-7^ ' An unprecedented demand for rural housing loans from the Farmers Home Administration i exhausted all funds allocated to North Carolina for the first quarter of fiscal year 1979 in November 1978, according to James T. Johnson, State Director of North Carolina. !FmHA is the rural credit service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. "We have notified all FmHA county offices as to the loan funds they will have available for the second quarter of fiscal year 1979, which began January 1, 1979," Johnson said. "The county supervisors have been directed to inform those who hold loan com mitments and loan ap plicants of the situation." Some county offices /-report that they have Aoough applications on ^an<Mo exhaust all funding for the remainder of the fiscal year, which ends September 31, 1979. The state director an ticipates that no additional appropriations for FmHA housing loans will be made this fiscal year. Funds are allocated to each state on the basis of housing needs. The allocation to North Carolina in fiscal year 1979 is 1150 million, an increase of $8 million over the previous fiscal. In an effort to provide credit throughout the year, funds are allocated on the basis of 35% for the first quarter, 25% for the second and ffllrd quarter, and 15% for the fourth quarter.

Marine Fisheries Commission, January 17, 7:30 p.m., Marine Resources Center, Manteo, according to J.J. Smith, Chairman of the Commission. There have been com plaints in Dare County about beach haul seine crews locating in front of one beach cottage and staying there for several days. There is a proposal to establish regulations to change the situation and not allow a crew to fish the exact spot day after day. Last year the Com mission made changes in the legal net mesh sizes in Albemarle Sound and triburaties. The Com mission has received complaints that the recreational mullet fishery during summer months was overlooked, and for that particular fishery a smaller mesh size is necessary. The smaller mesh proposal will be discussed. People in the News Lt. and Mrs. John McAllister from Grissom Air Force Base, Indiana, were recent guests of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Harrison.

Phone: 297-2658 rhe way the economy is these days, any kind of tax relief is good news. That's why we are pleased to announce a major tax break for Perdue growers. |ju. Thanks to the recent government tax package, you, as a Perdue broiler house jjtjj i | owner, can now claim a 10% investment credit on your 1978 federal ifmU s income tax. If you purchased one of our broiler houses last year, you can de duct 10% of its cost from the Federal income tax you'll owe. That means you can subtract up to $6,000 from the bottom line! And because this new tax law is retroactive to August, 1971, current Perdue growers who haven't claimed this credit in t the past can benefit as well. If you're not presently a Perdue grower, but are interested in earning up to $16,000 per year, plus saving as much as $6,000 on your 1979 income tax, contact Perdue today. The Perdue broiler house tax credit... making a good thing even better.
