Thursdoy, April B, 1941 SPECIAL HOME ECONOMICS CLASSES AT NYA CENTER HAS HER FIRST BIRTHDAY Kational defense home economics classes are being conducted at the local NYA resident center by Mrs. R. G. Watson of this city, teacher of home economics, under the supervis ion of W. E. Monts, superintendent of the city schools, and the state de partment of education. Classes are from three ^ to five o’cl'ock on regular school days, but are only offered to NYA girls at the resident center. The classes plan to study different phases of homemaking, and at res ent are studying family foods, \^ich involves the planning, selection, preparation and serving qf family meals based on needs found in the resident center. They are learning to buy wiselj^and to plan meals that supply the body’s needs for good health, using the foods they have at home or that can be grown at home. In the NYA resident center there are two groups of girls who rotate their weeks of training. In the morn ing from nine until one o’clock, Mrs. Watson visits the girls who are at home that week and in this way keeps in constant touch with both groups. In their homes, the girlS'are"^ encouraged to carry on home experi ence programs related to family foods, which are carefully planned with Mrs. Watson and carried through to completion under her su pervision. In these experience pro grams the girls acquire new skills and develop managerial ability under home conditions. A few home experience programs are: 1. Planning and preparation of family meals to suit the needs of the family. 2. Planning and cultivation of a vegetable garden ba.sed on the needs of the family. 3. Planning and cultivation of a garden to make money. 4. The production of poultry th meet the requirements of the family. 5. Poultry production to raise in come. So much interest has been created in home experience programs by the girls that some of their parents are voluntarily carrying on a similar pro gram.

All farmers with more than two share croppers can not get ten cents per pound for cotton stamp, if each farm family is to receive its maximum amount of stamps. To be eligible for stamps, according to County Agent C. B. Cannon, a farm er must reduce his cotton acreage for 1941 below his 1940 planted or his 1941 cotton acreage allotment, pay ment being made for the smaller of the two. The maximum amoui^t of stamps any person may receive is $50.00. To receive this, though, he must have two or more share crop pers or be interested in two or more farms. Tlje three types of farmers a total of four acres reduced for the faim. Mr. C would receive stamps from one acre each of his share crop pers, giving him $50, and each share cropper receives one acre each, or $25. Bfr. D had four share croppers in 1940 working 80 acres equally on the halves. He has the same allotment for 1941 and wishes to reduce enough acreage in order for each share crop per to seeing his maximum $^ worth of stamps. The share crop pers being given equal acreage for 1941 to work with an average yield for 1941 of 250 pounds of lint per acre. It will be necessary for each i share cropper to reduce two acres. who can receive the maximum making eight acres reduction, of Bachelor Dinner Friday night Rudolph Prater was honored with a dinner to celebrate his “last free leisure hours,” at Ad ams’ camp.

' ^ The payment for stamps is bEised on ten cents per pound times the average normal yield set for the farm times the acreage reduced. Example of different farm reduc tions: Mr. A had ten acres planted to cotton in 1940 and his 1941 average normal yield is 250 pounds. He wish es to receive his maximum amount of stamps on this farm. He reduces one acre of cotton for 1941, which gives his $25 .worth of stamps. Mr. B had ten acres allotment for 1940 and planted^ his full acres and the same allotment for 1941. He has for 1941 one share cropper working sdl the cotton on halves and wishes, with his share cropper, to receive the maximum $25 each. 'Therefore, Mr. B reduces two acres of cotton for 1941 with average yield of 250 pounds per acre, which gives the landlord $25 and his share cropper $25. Mr. C. has two shsire croppers who are working equal acreage all the cotton acreage for 1941 on the halves. Suppose Mr. C had 20 acres allot- mertt for 1940 and planted his full acreage.
