4 September 3, 1959 Mrs. William H. Tucker Rt 2, Box 95 Estacada, Oregon Dear Mrs. Tucker: I am sorry to have to inform you that it was impossiole to accept your application for Century farm Honors for the 1969 program. The Branch Tucker Farm qualifies in every respect, but after consulting with our co-sponsor the State Department of Agriculture, it was decided that we could not accept applications made after the first of July. I had sincerely thought an exception could be made in your esse, but found that the other sponsor had already refused a good number of late applications. Thank you for coming into the Society. I hope that you will resubmit your application for the Century Farm program next year. Sincerely, Judith Scfcarf Paget Public Service Representative encl:
