MAY8
Last word we had on the
1977 re-opening of the
Glencoe cotton gin is that
there is little chance that this
will be done. Seems like
there are rules, regulations,
new standards for updating
the equipment, making the
project more expensive than
was first believed. 1977
cotton acreage in Payne
County is expected to be
somewhere near 350 acres,
as compared to less than 50
acres last year. Price for lint
cotton at present is quoted at
62c a pound. Since modern
methods of cotton culture
make "bale an acre" cotton
not too difficult to achieve,
the present price makes a
cash return of $300, or more
an acre (gross that is)
possible.
Wheat at present quotes
$2.15 per bushel is far below
cost of production. Even so,
there needs to be a profound
psychological change in a
farmer's make-up before he
can pasture off a promising
(yield-wise) wheat crop,
replow his land and "gear-
up" for cotton.
The gin at Guthrie will be
operating this year as will
the .gin at Ralston. Neither of
these gins is located in Payne
County. Costs of transporta-
tion have to be figured.
Mrs. Vernon Disel (Doro-
thy) entertained the Worth-
while Club from Cushing
The
recently at her home in
Diamond Valley. Rachel
Driskel and Edna wilson
were among the guests. The
list of names is too long since
we are short of time, but we
were happy to see Allie
Gillespie among the mem-
bers. Allie and I have been
friends since school days in
Ripley.
1977 first cutting of alfalfa
yielded "better thah the first
cutting has been for the past
several years." Moreover
the quality is first rate, and
nearly everyone got their hay
intothe barns before the rain
came.
• Diamond Valley Young
People turned in quite a nice
lot of aluminum cans from
the collection drive Saturday,
and celebrated with a wiener
roast at the Byron Loucks
home. Kenneth Sumpter
distinguished himself as a
skillful firemaker. That fire
with its accompanying col-
umns of blue smoke was
worthy of an artist's best
effort. Besides, the fire was
well behaved, stayed in
place, and properly put to
sleep when the feast was
over. Bullfrogs in the pond
nearby supplied music.
Next Friday evening, May,
6, is the time for the
Invitational Music Festival at
Diamond Valley. EVERY-
Perkins Journal Thursday, May5, 1977-3
BODY is cordially invited,
whether you sing, play any
instrument or just like to
come and see your neighbors
and listen to the harmony,
Y'all come?
