Once again White Mills Days has come and gone. We want to thank all those who contributed in any way to the success of the program this year. The men who grilled the chicken are to be commended for an excellent job. The members of White Mills Volunteer Fire Department contributed numerous hours to help security and setting up. Also, we want to thank them for all that they do throughout the year.

HOT AND HOTTER. The month is about over and ending with more high heat indexes and high temperatures in the high 90s. One more week of school summer break left. Enjoy it.

WEATHER. I read in the paper Sunday where someone said to keep our gardens watered as though it was dry there. I believe it was Daphne who said it. Mother Nature has kept ours watered very well. Guess the rain must not be general. Apparently the heat must be according to the weatherman’s reports. With the needed moisture, the crops in this area are really growing beautifully. We have started having some tomatoes to enjoy and only one hill of yellow squash, which is more than supplying our needs.
