Exciting Short Story
In his eye was a look of determi-
nation; his breath was coming in
gasps: she had eluded him, but now
his hour had come and his purpose
was not to be thwarted again. He
rushed and threw his arms about
her neck, half-dragging, half carry-
ing her to the parson’s. He kicked
vigorously upon the door and when
the parson came demanded:
“Do you tie knots?”
‘‘Why, yes,” said the parson.
“Then tie a good hard one on this
heifer calf of yours; she’s dum nigh
ruined my garden!”—The Progres-
sive Farmer.

The Rotary Club met for their
weekly Tuesday luncheon this week
with W. J. Stone, chairman of the
program committee, in charge of
the program.
Mr. Stone presented Miss Con-
stance Clark, speech instructor of
our High School, who gave a read-
ing. The main thought of this
reading was “Father Shopping for
Groceries,” which was dedicated to
the president of the club, Bill Shell-
burg, who is the proud parent of
a new son. Mr. Shellburg was also
honored at the beginning of the
meeting by one of the songs being
“Rock-a-Bye-Baby.”
Bro. Patton, minister of the
Church of Christ, gave an interest-
ing and instructive talk on “New
Year Resolutions.”
Jesse D. Woods, club secretary,
got something “off his chest,” as he
said, and gave a very humorous
talk about the “Trials and Tribu-
lations of a Rotary President,” and
cited Bill Shellburg as an example.
Mr. Shellburg passed out the cigars,
as is the custom for those who
been blessed with a new son
daughter.

The Nocona P.-T.A. met for their
regular meeting at the North Ward
School building on January 8, at
3:30 p. m.
The meeting was opened with a
talk by Bro. Patton, minister of
the Church of Christ. The topic
for the day was “Economic Se-
curity.” Mrs. W. J. Stone dis-
cussed this subject in a very inter-
esting and instructive way.
Both talks were greatly enjoyed
by all those present. This pro-
gram was one of the best that has
been rendered for some time.
Room awards went to: Two-B,
Mrs. Stone, teacher; Sophomore
class. Miss Jarvis and Mr. Bowen
sponsors; Seven-B, Miss Lona
Atkins, teacher.
The meeting was then adjourned.
There was a better attendance this,
week than last. Much interest is!
New Year’s resolutions may be a '
lot of nonsense, but there’s on reso-
lution that every farmer (and
Ranchman) in Montague County
would do well to make and keep.
“I resolve to go to the limit in
soil conservation work in 1941. to
earn every penny of my soil-build-
ing allowance, and even to dig down
into my own pocket to carry out
additional practices and thus to en-
rich my land as much as possible.”
Every member of the Montague
County AAA committee has made
this resolution and intends to keep
it, H. A. Reynods, committee chair-
man, points out. He is urging all
community committeemen to make
every effort to impress on farmers
in their communities the importance
of taking full advantage of the soil-
building practices under the Agri-
cultural Adjustment Administration
program.
In 1939 the county fell short of
earning the full amount available
for soil-building work. Some im-
provement was made in 1940, but
still some farmers failed to go the
limit in conservation.
In the 1941 AAA program still
greater emphasis has been placed on
soil conservation, and county com-
mittees hove been given more auth-
ority and latitude to encourage con-
servation work.
Soil-building practices especially
valuable in this county include the
following:
1. Construction of standard terra-
ces for which proper outlet are pro-
vided—74 cents per 100 feet. Ter-
races to be approved for payment:
(a) Must not exceed a fall of 4 in-
ches per 100 feet along the terrace
line, (b) Must have fill in terrace
ridge.
2. Contour ridging of non-crop
open pasture land—7% cents per
ICO feet. Ridges or narrow terraces
must be at least 3 feet wide from
the low point in upner or lower
channel to the top of the ridge, at
least 15 inches high above the low
point in upper-channel.
3. Construction of reservoirs and
dams—15 cents per cubic yard of
material moved, not to exceed 2,000
cubic yards for each development,
and 10 cents per cubic yard for ma-
terial moved in excess of 2.000 cubic
yards for each development.
4. Contour fanning intertilled
crops—20 cents per acre. This prac-
tice consists of the planting and cul-
‘ivation of crons following the con-
cur as determined by a farm level
~r survevor’s instrument, or follow-
!ng established terraces. If the land
s not terraced, the rows must fol-
’cw guide lines established at not to
-xceec twice the terrace Interval
specified in practice 1.
5. Contour listing cropland— 20
'nts per acre. The furrows shall not
he more than 4 feet nor less than 20
'nches anart and shall, if listed, not
he less than 8 Inches wide and 4
‘nches deep. The furrowing shall
done with the contour of the land,
'r following established terraces.
The contours shall be maintained
until final preparation of the land
ror a crop. Contour listing within
30 days prior to seeding shall not
qualify as a soil-building practice.
6. Seeding of close-grown sweet
®orghums. millets, soybeans, peas,
md small grain crops on the con-
tour—15 cents per acre.
7 (a) Green manure and cover
crops of non-legumes—75 rents per
acre, (b) Green manure and cover
crops of legumes—$1.50 per acre. A
good stand and a good growth of
