Farmers Must Keep
Records On Cotton
Production 1913

Farmers are asked to keep records Of
their 1913 cotton production, and it is
highly important that these records be
kept accurately, according to H. L.
Nichols, Chairman Of the Holmes County
AAA Committee.
Mr.. Nichols explained that in past
years, ginners nave cooperated with the
AAA by furnishing detailed records Of
cotton production for each farm, but
that this year these records will not
be obtained from g~inners, due to tho
suspension of marketing quotas.
In the past, the records of product
ion have served as a basis for determin-
ing the yields used in marketing quota
programs, crop insurance programs and
in determining AAA payments.
at is to a farmers best interest that
an accurate record Of his 1913 cotton.
production be kept because this record
may be needed in future AAA pro-
grams" Mr.. Nichols said. He said that
each farmer should keep each gin ticket,
bale receipt, or sales ticket for baled
cotton and for lots Of seed cotton sold.

28S Kit Bags
Filled For Soldiers

Since our Red Cross Chapter is busy
these days in getting off our County
Quota of 288 filled Kit Bags for the
boys who are sent overseas it will be
of interest to note the following which
appeared in the Courier Red Cross
magazine: THE Red Cross Kits which
you have so g~raeiously prepared and
provided for these troops going to pro-
tect our country have helped many q
man over a tough step at the beginning
of the voyage as well as having been
a continual source of help and pleasure
to many throughout the voyage and
after"
The above is a part of a letter sent
by a Chaplain ON a transport. Again
there appears an interesting account of
an army nurse binding a wound of q
soldier. A happy and touching coinci-
dence in this case was that the surgical
dressing she was using came from this
boys own home town Red Cross Chap
ter, from Potter county, Texas. Our
Workers all over the county are making
and we are shipping thousands of sur
gical dressings.
VIII knows, These very Kit Bags
from the Holmes county Chapter NAV
give one of our own boys pleasure and
comfort and u surgical dressings may
contribute toward the healing Of wounds
OF someone near and dear = u.
