RICHARD BOLT, Owrer
‘‘Be Your Age”
There is an old slang ex-
pression that would make a
good slogan for living a long-
er and more comfortable life,
and that is “Be your age”. Ac-
cording to the State Health Of-
ficer, Dr. Geo. W. Cox, many
persons injure their health and
endanger their life through in-
dulgence in exercises and rigor-
ous sports unsuited for their
age and physical condition.
“While a young man in prime
physical condition may benefit
from a fast game of tennis,
older men and women have
been known to collapse and
suffer serious heart attacks fol-
lowing such a game. The same
thing, applies to golfing, swim-
ming and other vigorous sports,”
Dr. Cox said.
During the hot summer
months, it is of especial im-
portance that you know your
physical limitations, and in-
dulge in only such activities as
will benefit, and not harm your
physical condition.
“Persons of middle age should
never participate in activities
requiring violent physical exer-
tion, and should confine their
physical exercise to such bounds
as their doctor prescribes,” Cox
9SS6rt6(3
The State Health Officer sug-
gested that all persons of mid-
dle age be examined by their
physician, before planning their
summer vacation activities. A
vacation can easily be more ex-
hausting than refreshing, and
in such event, more harm than
benefit results from the time
thus ' spent. Fishing, boating,
hiking in moderation, and many
other light recreations can be
engaged in by the older people
who must avoid heart strain,
and it is a wise precaution to
have your doctor advise you as
to what sort of vacation you
should plan.
Childress Lady
Injured Near
Paducah Sun. Aft.
Mrs. Roscoe Cagle was treated
for numerous cuts from flying
glass when a Coke bottle thrown
from a passing car crashed
through the Cagle windshield
yesterday on the highway just
south of Paducah.
The bottle hit Cagle on the
chest, passed through the car
and out the back window—
narrowly missing their son. Mrs.
Cagle’s left eye had glass in
it, but no serious injury was
incurred.
The on-coming car, from which
the bottle was thrown, was de-
scribed as a dark-green Chevro-
let. It was approaching the
Cagle car at a high speed. Mrs.
Cagle estimated Cagle was driv-
ing 60 miles an hour.
Childress Sheriff Kermit Wat-
ers called the Paducah sheriff.

Fall Seeding Of
Barley Recommended
For Panhandle
There are three types of barley
available that may be grown
successfully in Texas, according
to J. E. Adams, head of the
Texas A. & M. College depart-
ment of agronomy.
Results of recent tests by Tex.
as Agricultural Experiment Sub-
stations in the northern part of
the Rolling Plains indicate reco-
mmendations of fall seeding of
the true-winter type varieties in
this area as well as in the
Panhandle. These barley variety
tests were conducted under the
supervision of Superintendents
J. Roy Quinby, of the Chillicothe
substation; L. E. Brooks, of the
Iowa Park substation, and Dan
I. Dudley and I. M. Atkins,
of the Denton substation. Other
tests were run at the Green-
ville substation, where D. I.
Hooten is superintendent, and
at Stephenville under the direc-
tion of Superintendent B. C.
Langley.
The cold resistant true-winter
type varieties recommended for
the Rolling Plains and the Pan-
handle areas include Reno,
Ward, Wisconsin Winter, Michi-
gan Winter, and all strains of

Tennessee Winter. None of these
varieties is recommended for
spring seeding, these substation
superintendents say.
The fall habit growth of these
strains is similar to that of the
winter wheat with narrow, dark
green leaves that lie flat on the
ground, says Dr. Adams. For
Texas conditions, Reno and
Ward are the best varieties.
At the Denton, Greenville, Iowa
Park, Chillicothe and Stephen-
ville substations, Reno yielded
24.5, 22.7, 40.3, 42.3 and 23.4
bushels per acre respectively.
At these same stations, Ward
yielded 27.2, 22.2, 42.8, 34.6 and
20.6 bushels respectively.
Intermediate winter-type va-
rieties for Texas are Wintex,
Tenkow, Texan, Smooth Awn
86 and Texas Winter. These
varieties are less cold resistant
but usually survive. And where
they can be grown are generally
more productive than the fall
seeded types, Dr. Adams says.
They also have the advantage
of being planted as late as Feb-
ruary 1 with fairly satisfactory
results. The intermediate va-
rieties produce quicker and more
abundant fall pasture than other
barley types.
Wintex and Tenkow are the
high yielding strains well suited
tb fall seeding in the North
Central and Rolling Plains of
the state. They do have their
disadvantages, too, however, in
that they have heavy, rough
awns, and are susceptible to
mildew and stripe.
Texan barley is a smooth
GIRL SCOUT
NEWS
Last week, due to overcrowd-
ed space and lack of time and
material, this column was omit-
ted. Regular year of Scout work
ends in May. Each troop is re-
sponsible for its own summer
program. The cabin and its
facilities are used to advan-
tage by the girls during the
summer months.
With the ending of school
comes the thought and some-
times dread of the idle and hot
days of summer. Now is the
time for more Scout plans so
there will be a gathering of
the girls along with somewhere
to go and something to do to
pass the time and benefit your-
selves as well.
Yes, summer, with picnics,
hikes, swimming parties, weiner
roasts, slumber parties, dances,
projects—general interesting and
informative programs is here.

During the designated “Clean
Up Week” in Paducah, the
Scouts were very busy with their
cleaning program at the Girl
Scout Hut. The grounds and
inside of the cabin had a
thorough “going over”. The girls
and their leaders are to be com-
mended for their fine work,

On Saturday, May 28, the
Scouts participated in the sell-

During the summer, if there
are articles that you wish
published in this column, such
as parties, picnics, badge work,
summer projects, or any social
given by the Scouts, we will
be glad to do so, but a regular
column of Scout news each week
as in the past will not appear.
awned variety that is resistant
to mildew and mqderately re-
sistant to other barley leaf dis-
eases. It is rather widely adapt-
ed, producing high yields from
fall seeding. And it’s better
adapted to spring seeding than
any other winter or intermediate
winter type.
Further results of tests run
at these substations show that
the best spring planted varieties
are Stravropol, Flynn, Beacher,
Vaughn and Coast. These va-
rieties should not be fall seeded.
However, they may be used for
spring seeding in the Panhandle
area or in extreme South Tex-
