Difficult times demand wise decisions... and
strong decision-makers like Lt. Gov. Bill Hobby.
If your neighbor is like
most Americans, he will
move every five years. A
well-tended yard will put
more money in his pocket
when he sells. Perhaps with
this bit of information, you
won’t have to tell him the
true purpose of your visit!
In addition to an in-
creased financial value, a
cared-for yard helps a home
sell more quickly, and more

Texans are facing some difficult times. Now, more
than ever, we need experienced, compassionate
leaders in our state government.
We need a leader like Lt. Gov. Bill Hobby who has
our interests at heart. Here's how Hobby stands on
the issues concerning Texans:
JOBS.
HOBBY is working to create more and better
jobs for Texans. He is making sure jobless
Texans receive their full unemployment bene
fits. He is working to increase the efficiency to
the Texas Employment Commission. He is
stimulating economic growth and new jobs
through responsible state spending and one of
the lowest tax rates in the nation.
EDUCATION.
HOBBY will not be satisfied until our education system is the best
in the nation His efforts to improve the quality of public education
for your children and grandchildren begin in the classroom. He is
for improving teacher salaries and benefits. He is for giving more
control to local school districts.
CRIME.
HOBBY is for strong laws and certainty of punishment
of criminals, backed by better training and pay for our
police officers. He is helping upgrade our courts to
speed up trials of accused criminals He is for improv
ing our prison system and parole system.

"Apparently apathy ia high
this year This ia particularly
alarming when you consider that
more than 200 elective offices,
including all top state of-
ficials and all Texas House
and Senate seats are up for
grabs.’’
Hobby said that Texans
should ask themselves,
"Who will I have to blame if
Texas fails to maintain its
status as one of the best
states in the nation in which
to live?
"Our Texas Constitution
guarantees the right of free
speech and free assembly
and all the other basic
freedoms,” Hobby said.
"How sad it ia that so many
thousands of Texans, en-
joying the blessings of
liberty and the high quality
of life that has become
characteristic of o<ir state,
will refuse to exercise the
fundamental process of free
democracy in a free
republic.”
Hobby said that the history
of Texas is proof that the
struggle for prosperity ia an
ongoing process and never a

final achievement.
“I believe that Texas will
continue to be a land of
opportunity, aa it ha* since
it* inception more than 100
year* ago,” Hobby said.
"This will happen only if the
people of Texas combine
their sense of mutual
progress and pride with a
sense of participation and
vote during the general
elections on November 2.”

Candidates

points out David Wolfe
county agent with the Texas
Agricultural Extension
Service, Texas
University System.
The solution, then
poison them without
realizing they are being
poisoned (or without
disturbing them). Here is
one suggested method:
Mix one teaspoon of boric
acid crystals in 1-2 ounces of
hot water. Heat and stir until
the boric acid dissolves, then
mix the solution with one cup
of Karo corn syrup.
Put this bait out in small
amounts at many bait
stations. Plastic pill or metal
bottle caps will work well to
hold the bait. Place baits in
and around those areas of
the house where ants have
been seen. Be sure to keep
baits moist by replacing
them or adding a drop or two
of water every 3-4 days.
Boric acid crystals can be
bought at most drug stores
and many supermarkets.
The material is safe to use
but as with all chemical
insect control, it should be
used with caution and kept
out of the reach of children.
This method of controlling
Pharaoh ants is simple and
inexpensive but it does take
time says Wolfe. You should
not expect complete control
for a period of several
weeks.

Among the most common
household pests in Texas are
ants. They get into trash
cans, open food, dog food and
other sources of sugar or
protein and can be quite a
real nuisance around the
house.
Probably the most com-
mon household ants are the
tiny, yellow-to-light-reddish
Pharaoh ants. These ants
have, through time, become
well adjusted to living with
man and are quite clever in
avoiding attempts to ex-
terminate them. They do not
form a stationary nest and
when anything disturbs
them, they simply move to a
new location some distance
from the disturbance.
The problem with trying to
poison these little pests is
that it normally disturbs
those which are not killed
and they move away from
the poison. They are then
able to rebuild their
Recent studies have
shown that there is a
definite dollar difference be-
tween the value of a healthy,
beautiful, plant-filled yard
and a bare, patchy one.
Real estate agents, for ex-
ample, were asked to as-
sess the value a well-kept
yard added to the selling
price of a home. Their es-
timate? About six percent,
or nearly $6,000 on
$100,000 property.
Another study, con-
ducted by the U.S. Forest
Service, showed that trees
around a house may en-
hance its value by as much
as 20 percent.
