The library was quite honored to have
Mary Kate Tripp, Sunday Book Editor
of die AMARILLO GLOBE NEWS, to
visit recently. She, Eleanor Godfrey,
and Vivian Gaylor, all cousins, were in
Tulia for a yearly reunion. They also
loured the museum and Kenneth Wyatt
studio. Mary Kate wrote about their visit
in her column in last Sunday's papcr.and
we do appreciate the nice comments
about the library. She was especially
impressed with the "Library of Amer-
ica" books and the Texana Collection;
she thinks we have a fine library. We
appreciate Mrs. Gaylor bringing the
ladies in.
You must come in to see Lana
Carlton’s lovely china painting. There
are plates in various sizes and shapes,
china eggs, and several pitchers, all
beautifully painted and treasures for her
family. Our thanks to Lana for this dis-
play.
Recent memorials to the library were
given in memory of Mavis Willson of
Floydada, an aunt of John Will Nichols,
Nell Jennings, George Jennings Sr., and
Kathryn Ferrell Barany, a cousin of
DorisBIack. We appreciate you remem-
bering the library; it does help stretch the
book budget.
Think that we need one of those really

Management
Of Crop
Residue
Crop residue management is the prac-
tice of using plant residues, such as large
and small grain stubble and leaves, to
protect cultivated fields during the criti-
cal erosion season, November through
May.
The advantages that can be obtained
by the proper use of crop residues are as
follows: 1) lessens soil erosion by re-
ducing the amount of soil area exposed
to wind and rain impaction; 2) increase
soil moisture by the trapping of snow
and reducing the amount of soil area
exposed to evapotranspiration; 3) adds
organic matter that aids in ease of culti-
vation by preventing clodding and
crusting of soil; 4) improves microbial
life that aids in water permeability and
helping breakdown organic matter that
releases nutrients into the soil; and 5)
saves money.
Crop residue management can be
used in various conservation tillage
practices such as no-till, ridge-till, strip-
till, and other reduced-till systems.
The amount of residue reejuired will
vary from farmer to farmer and is based
upon crop and time interval and may
include consideration for crop tolerance
if desired.
There arc limitations that the farmer
should be aware of: 1) some crops, such
as wheat and sorghum, can temporarily
tic up nutrients which can be offset by
the application of fertilizer; 2) may need
to shred residue for insect and disease
control; 3) excessive amounts may be
removed by grazing or mechanically
harvesting; 4) when grazing annual
crops, such as wheat, the farmer needs to
leave enough growing crop or residue to
control wind and water erosion; 5) crop
residue use docs not replace other prac-
tices such as contouring, wind barriers,
etc.; 6) if crop residue is likely to be
blown or floated away, then the farmer
may need lochiscl, sweep, or some other
cultivation practice to hold the residue
in place; 7) in cases where the residue is
not enough to protect the soil, other
practices may need to be planned and
applied.
For more information regarding crop
residue management that best fits your
needs, contact the Soil Conservation
Service at 215 N. W. 2nd in Tulia or call

and services arc available without re-
