GODFREY HOME IS
SCENE OF PARTY \
Mrs. A. J. Godfrey’s attrac
tive home was the setting for
a kitchen shower in honor of
Mrs. Jarrott Johnson, the •
former Miss Sarah Hornsby,
on Wednesday night, Oct. 3rd.
■ Others entertaining with Mrs.
Godfrey were Mrs. Jerry Till
man, Mrs. Wiley Fort and
Mrs. Raymond Miller.
Guests enjoyed playing bri
dal games.
The tea table was centered
with a driftwood tree laden
with presents tied with red
riilbons. Other presents were
banked at the base of the tree.
Ou each side were attractive
•arrangements of colorful fall
vegetables.
Delicious coffee and cake
were served to those invited
which included Mrs. James R.
Hornsby, mother of the bride,
Mrs. Irwin Hornsby, Mrs. Fos
ter Wurst, Mrs. D. F. Wurst,
Mrs. Bill Mosley, Mrs. J. B.
Clarke, Mrs. W. C. Rushing,
Mrs. Earl Spier, Mrs. Truett
Roberts, Mrs. J. E. Fowler,

Miller, Mrs. Mabie Godfrey,
Mrs. Denver McMullen, Mrs.
Ronnie Harrell and Mrs. R. F.
Spooner.
the 1962 feed grain and wheat
programs will released from
program restrictions on graz
ing. The authorization does
not extend to (1) diverted
acreage which is devoted to
wildlife food plots, and (2)
diverted acreage on which
grain or oilseed crops have
matured in 1962.
The grazing restrictions
are being relaxed as part of
I the general effort to keep
provisions of farm programs
in line with practical farming
operations. Many farmers
normally salvage dropped
'com ears and other crop re
sidue by turning livestock on
to harvested cropland in the
late fall. Since the diverted
acreage on many farms is not
fenced separately, the pro
gram change will permit these
farmers to salvage this feed
without being gput to unrea
sonable work time and ex
ipense for protective fencing.
■ The main object of the ban
against livestock on diverted
acreages has been to prevent
grazing that might partially
offset the com, grain sorg
hum, and wheat adjustment
under the diversion programs.
With killing frosts likely by
November 1 over the main
grain-producing area, the ob
jective of the no-grazing ban
would be satisfactorily met
by that time. In addition, the
important period for protec
tion of the diverted acreages
also will have passed in most
I areas, and there is small like
| lihood that conservation cov-
I er would be severly damaged
|by permitting livestock on
cnis acreage on or after Nov
ember 1.

1963 Program
As yet, we do not know too
many details about the 1963
program, nor do we know
anything about the Soil Bank
Program being extended as
I was described by the Houston

Eagle last week. We do have
some information on the 1963
Wheat Stabilization Program
and plan to write about this
next week. We hope to have
notices of payment rates,
base acreages, etc., in the
mail before the next issue
of this paper.
