NEWSLETTER FROM RALPH W.
TAREOROUGH V. S. SENATOR
Dear Fellow Texans:
By letters, phone calls and
Wires, the people of Texas are
asking me about the status of
the aid to so-called "impacted"
School districts.
"Impacted" is the term that
has come to be used for school
districts that have felt the im-
pact of the armaments program,
where large numbers of federal
personnel are suddenly moved
into one area to be near missile
bases, air bases or similar in-
stallations.
The result of such a move, of
course, is that schools suddenly
become overloaded, and unless
precautions are taken, the tax-
payers in the affected school
districts are also overloaded.
Recently, the Senate Labor
and Public Welfare Committee,
of which I am a member, voted
11 to 1 in favor of a bill that
would extend the responsibility
of the government to absorb
some of the impact of these af-
fected school districts.
In Texas, the school districts
that receive money under this
program include Abilene, Cor-
pus Christi, Fort Worth, San
Antonio, El Paso, Waco, Amar-
illo, Sherman and Irving, and
others.
For the fiscal year of 1961,
245 school districts in Texas re-
ceived a total of $10,677,000 for
the operation and maintenance
of their schools. Another $2,994,-
000 was voted by Congress for
the construction of classrooms
in the federally "impacted"
areas.
It is interesting, and a sur-
prise to many, that one-third of
all of the children who go to
public schools in America today
attend in schools where part of
the financing comes from the
federal government under the
"impacted area" program. And
this is done without any impedi-
ment to the control of the
schools by the local elected ad-
ministrations.
This program has been in ef-
fect for a good many years. It
had not been renewed this year
since it had earlier been in-
cluded in the general school
bill, but the action to extend it
is necessary because the general
school bill has not been ap-
proved.
We are moving forward and
hope to have further progress
to report on it before the end
of the session.
Mr. and Mrs. Tom Wade had
as guests during the weekend
their son and family, Mr. and
Mrs. Tommy Dayton Wade,
Vickie and Bobby of Mesquite.

The County sheep and goat
committee met last week to out-
line the program for the year.
They are arranging for another
goat field day emphasizing man-
agement and production prac-
tices with Jim Gray, our Exten-
sion Sheep and Goat Specialist.
Committee members present
were Ray Sanders, Bowie; Jack
Bailey, Forestburg; John Wilson,
Bowie; Webb Reynolds, Forest-
burg; and Levi Perryman, For-
estburg. Other committee mem-
bers are Cap Reed, Bonita, and
Billy Bob Southward, Bowie.
Added to the committee were
Ray Fenoglio and Ewing John-
son of Montague.
The goat clinic will be held
this fall if arrangements can
be worked out. It will be held
at Ewing Johnson's place at
Montague.
Arsenic acid and "Penta" (pen-
tachlorophenal) have both been
approved as a desiccant for de-
foliating cotton this year. Exten-
sion on their use was made just
for this year. These are the two
that are recommended for strip-
per harvest.
Cotton should be fully mature.
60 to 80% open and preferrably
90% open. "Penta" is applied
with diesel oil after the dew
dries. Arsenic acid is applied
with water and can be applied
under conditions of higher humi-
dity than "Penta."
Be sure to follow all instruc.
tions when usmg arsenic Vein
as it is very poisonous to
and an mal. It is also corrjj
to equipment. Sprayers sCuiH
be flushed with water anf 2
ing soda solution after ea h
spraying. Destroy all container*

Speaking of cotton the use of
cotton burs on land will increase
cotton yields and build up or
ganic matter in soils. Other ad"
vantages of returning the burs to
the land is a better soil-water
relationship, thus letting crops
use the available moisture more
effectively. Soils to which cotton
burs have been added are also
more resistant to wind and wa-
ter erosion, and they may have
a better infiltration rate.
Be sure to pick up a copy 0f
the new bulletin "Cotton Burs
for Soil Improvement."
Also get a copy of another
new publication entitled "Fer-
tilizing Texas Pastures."
