Terrace Maintenance Being Stressed<br />
In California Creek Soil District<br />
Terrace maintenance is the key<br />
to a good terrace system, technicians<br />
of the California Creek Soil<br />
Conservation District point out. As<br />
r know a chain is no stronger<br />
than its weakest link, thus a terrace<br />
line or terracP system is no<br />
stronger than the weakest point<br />
to it, the soil experts explain.<br />
A few district cooperators of<br />
the CCSCD have been doing i<br />
grind job of terr.ice maintenance<br />
on their farms. Some of these are<br />
Berber Hatenus, Ericksdahl community.<br />
John Grand, Paint Creek.<br />
Jotin Roddy, Bunker Hill. MM<br />
Sum Baize. Tuxedo<br />

Conservation Distrist was a<br />
delegate to the National V.MHia-tio- n<br />
of Soil Conservation District<br />
Supervisors to be held in New<br />
Orleans, Feb. 22-2- 7, Kupatt replaced<br />
Hiram Olson as representative<br />
of the district at the meeting.<br />
Winter peas and vetch plantings<br />
over the district are still looking<br />
good. The last few warm days<br />
have caused peas and vetch plantings<br />
to start growth again.<br />
Leave vetch and peas on the<br />
land as long as possible before<br />
turning them under. For those<br />
of you who plan to bed your le-g'land<br />
plant this vo.it s crop<br />
on them, leave peas and vetch at<br />
least until March IS or 20th before<br />
turning it under to allow<br />
more growth to take place.<br />
Terrace lines were completed<br />
and checked by technicians of the<br />
SCS for payment bv the PMA on<br />
the following farms: Cleo Jones<br />
land Ira Treadweli of the Tuxedi<br />
'community; John Ferguson and<br />
Seth Adams who farm near Hamlin.<br />
Now is the time to locate Guar<br />
'seed for the coming season. Plant- -'<br />
ing rate is 6 to 8 pounds per acre.<br />

MERLIN JENKINS<br />
Merlin Jenkins, director of the<br />
Haskell High School Band, is<br />
"Teacher of the Week" in Haskell<br />
schools.<br />
A graduate of Comanche, Texas,<br />
High Schooi, Mr. Jenkins entered<br />
North Texas State College,<br />
Denton, in the summer of 1941.<br />
Following the entry of the U. S.<br />

and joined the Navy in June, 1942<br />
and was discharged in the Spring<br />
of 1946. While in the service, he<br />
was stationed in New Orleans, La.,<br />

was a bugler for three years whilP<br />
in the Navy, then spent nearly a<br />
year on a sub-cha- ser while he<br />
was based at Key West.<br />
He NTSC in the<br />

The Haskell band director feels<br />
that a top grade band should be<br />
equally good in marching, sight<br />
readinn. and concert playing, and<br />
these phases have been stressed<br />
in his work with the band.<br />
During last fall, the Haskc'.l<br />
High School Band under the direction<br />
of Jenkins played for parades<br />
in Haskell, Iowa Park.<br />
Wichita Falls and Abilene, in addition<br />
to one rodeo. The band performed<br />
for 10 High School foot-b.-i- lk<br />
tramps in addition to the<br />
Colored Classic game during the .<br />
Cotton Festival held here.<br />
The band rehearsed from 7:30<br />
a m. to 9:00 a. m. on the football<br />
field, five days weekly, and from<br />
11:00 to noon. The band attended<br />
the marching contest at San An-ge- lo<br />
Dec. 5 and won a first division<br />
rating.<br />
Now that football season is<br />
over, thP band is working toward<br />
its Spring Concert, April 9, and<br />
toward the regional contest in concert<br />
playing and sight reading, to<br />
be held May 1 at San Angelo.<br />
At the present time the band<br />
rehearses from 11 a. m. to noon<br />

every morning from 7:30 a. m. to<br />
9 00 a. m. Each section in the<br />
re-hn-<br />
band has one such sectional<br />

with station WFAA, Dallas, on the woeklv. "This extrn work<br />

which are not apparent in full<br />
rehearsal and also to work out<br />
things which would be impossible<br />
in full rehearsal, due to the lack<br />
of time," the band director<br />
