How ever, four years' effort* to sell cot ton crop insurance has resulted in not mote thin 8 per cent of cot ton farmers buying policies in any one 1 year. Unless cotton farmers show more interest in this in surance protection, they will lose the Crop Insurance Program, as Cdhgress will not provide a" pro gram in which so few farmers show interest. _ _ _ iib one claims that the present rules governing the state and the Crop Insurance Program is perfect, but improvements are being made every year and this year's pro- _ gram is a vast improvement over tertainments ~of the year was the that of previous years. If the Bertrell Bird Show given - at the insurance Program is kept alive a national Content. BertrelPs Bird Show One of the most enjoyable en- hxgh school on Thursday, Febru ary 20. Some of the birds that were trained to act were white canaries, blue love birds from Australia, love birds from Africa, the cardinal and scarlet tanager, KoKo the cockatoo, and Polly, the parrot. Grammar School News Chapel Friday morning, chapel exercises were held in the auditorium with Mrs. Dendy in charge of the pro gram. Mrs. Harvey Sanders conducted the devotional, after which the names of “Clean the Piute Club” were read by Mrs. Talbert. The following program was pre sented by the Second Grade: Events Iri The Life of Washing ton, Washington Rules of Conduct. The Making of the First Flag, Song, Washington, OUr Washing ton. Fire-Extinguisher Fire-exinguishers have been in- rtalled recently in the grammar school. Forestry (Jpntest Mr. George" Sharp ton cbh- dUcted & forestry contest in the auditorium Friday morning to se lect the -toner from our school. Harvey Sanders, Jr., won. Other children who were chosen f^om their grades to compete ih this contest were Rose Weldon, Bobby Brown, Ollie Wideman, Sara Will Talbert arid Dorothy Dilla- shaw. eJISouT very satisfactory system can be worked out in'a very Short time. Participation in the program by the cotton growers is the only way of keeping it alive. Insurance, whatever its type, is for Protection in time&^f disaster. Cotton Crop Insurance, is nothing except protection in times of dis aster to the cotton crop, and this is the only basis on which it should be bought or sold. No in surance is sold with the idea of the policy-holders making a prof it on it. Every cotton grower has a cer tain investment in his crop, even before he plants such as seed, fer tilizer, machinery, etc. These costs must be paid whether or not the crop is a failure, and the in vestment should be protected. Crop insurance provides this protection. Here is how it works: Projects in 1946 Home Demonstration and 4-H Club members did outstanding werk in their major project, Healthful Living for the Farm Family, during 1946. Since their rrrpose was to improve health conditions in farm homes and communities in ihe county, they T—re given the following seven f’^monstrations which were in the State Plan of Work: Freezing Meat; Poultry for Health; Select- *-ct poultry for Home and Market; Fitter Breakfasts for Health; Do 7* Easier and Quicker; Clothes fo r Health and Comfort: and r-o-^ing Fruits and Vegetables. To assist with home nnd com munity projects, demonstrations r *i Insect Control—Using DDT; '"’at Control—using Red Squill: Home-Made Baking Mix°s: House- ' ’waning Ma^o Ensie r : Re modeling; and Home Wiring were r *ven. Results from these demonstra- r^ns were: 200 families entered the rat con trol campaign. These families re- •orted good results and requested r^other campaign. 7 communities put on a cam- nign to get rid of flies and mos- r-dtoes by using DDT; moving all old tins and filling water holes. Home Demonstration and 4-H Club members gave fresh, canned pnH cooked foods; dishes and with ah average yield of 299 pounds per acre may insure under Level “A” and obtain a guarantee of T16 pounds of lint per acre at a cost of only 4 pounds of lint per acre. Divide 116 by^4 and the re sult Is 29. This is a return of 29 for one. In other words, the pay ment in cjhs cf one total loss would pay the insurance for *29 years. Very few farmers could plant 29 consecutive cotton crops without one total loss, fh the k- bove illustration, if cotton is 30c per lb., for $1.20 per acre, the farmer is assured of $34.80 worth of protection. Farmers in McCormick County are urged to visit the AAA Office to discuss crop insurance as ap plied to their individual farms. G. G. Abercrombie, County Administrative Officer, , AAA.
