ble farm family.
Oeorge Washington’s birthday
was celebrated Feb. 22. with
praise and great words of econ-
tum. heaped upon him.
The pity Is It fell on dead ears.
If only one-half of the praise
and loyalty had been given him
when he was accused of being a
rebel against his majesty, or
faithless to hta men in the Moody
wartime and men half fed and
no shoes.
’Well, the same Is true of
Thomas Jefferson, who was ac-
cused of atheistic belief. Lin-
coln no doubt would have ap-
preciated more loyalty, even his
wonderful Gettysburg address
now. was discounted back In the
good old days of reconstruction

Pink and pretty four-months-
old Barbara Ann Isham was a
downtown visitor with her moth-
er for a short time Monday af-
ternoon The young lady was
attired in pink from top to toe,
and Jier deep blue eyes with her
dark tresses left an indelibly
pretty picture on the minds of
those who saw her Chances are
that Barbara Ann will follow In
the footsteps of her mother In
making one of San Saba county’s
prettiest and best school teachers
lr. the 1958-80 term. Or she
might decide to drive good auto-
mobiles for her adoring father,
Sam W Isham. or she might be
a huntress like Granddad Walter
Isham. or may be a Garden Club
enthusiast like her grandmother,
Mrs Oeorge M Fletcher of Mul-
lln Ban Saba News.
Baby Barbara Ann will also be
in the footprints of her maternal
grandfather. G M Fletcher, if
she goes In for big game, for each
fall when the hunting season
opens, it’s run for your deer life

JUST SION THC MONEY-SAVINO COUPON
FTled chicken is a luxury for
which city people fcllllngly pay
high prices. Probably not one
person in ten ever had enough
lried chicken to get tired of It,
for few are able to buy It regular-
ly after It passes through the
hands of dealers and caterers,
yet farm folks who raise It and
can have It every Sunday and in
between at a fraction of the
money cost to city people, are
too much Inclined to treat fried
chicken as luxury only to be serv
ed when company comes.
Whether you set the hens on
their own eggs, hatch them in a
home incubator, or buy baby
chicks from the commercla’
tiatchery, the cash outlay for
raising a two-pound fryer is only
a few cents. Any well-managed
farm raises at least a part of the
grain which chickens need, and
for which they will pay a good
price, either for home consump-
tion or sale The mash feeds re-
quired to balance the ration can
be had in every town nowadays,
and few farm "crops" offer as
quick a turnover as the sixty
days or so that it takes to bring
a chick to maturity for market
or home use.
is always some kind of a market
for the surplus, and many a farm
flock buys the flour, coffee and
other groceries which cannot be
produced at home. If the mar-
ket is low when the fryers or
broilers are ripe, housewives have
learned to can the meat for fu-
ture use or sale. I know a West
Texas store which buys Its can-
ned chicken from the women's
home demonstration club mem-
bers In the community and sells
it In chicken salad and sand-
wiches.
W A Painter, a tenant farmer
In Hale county (Texasi rents a
freezer-locker in town for $10 a
year. If the fryer, broiler or
turkey market Is down when his
fowls are ready, he dresses them
at home and stores them in the
locker to be scld aLer the rush
season is over. Mr. Painter also
has built up a good business in
dressed turkeys direct to custo-
mers in Dallas and Fort vWorth,
300 miles away “Where there's
a will there's a way” is just as
true as when It was first printed
In the old Blue Back speller three
generations ago.

It is nothing .short of tragic
that some farm families deprive
themselves ar.d their children of
all the eggs and chickens they
ran cat and enjoy sitting down
day after day to fat pork ship-
ped In from Wisconsin or lowa
Of all people who ought to live
well the farmer who produces the
food is that one, and he lives well
in just about the proportion that
he grows what he can use at
home without paying tribute to
handlers, processors, haulers and
merchandisers.
All these people render an es-
sential service and farmers can
no more do without the cities
than the cities can do without
the farmers It is worth think-
ing about, however, that every
dollar a farm family saves by
producing for its own use is a
dailer that can be spent for some
thing else they cannot produce—
some of the things farm folks too
often do without because they
are not indispensable.
Now the farm poultry business
Is different from the specialized
poultry business in many re-
spects. There is less cost, less
risk of disease, less cash outlay
all along the line. At the same
time it brings returns for time
and labor that would otherwise
have no market, and since their
time and labor that would other-
wise have no market, and since
their time and ability Is the
lies have to sell, those who do not
find some profitably activity for
the hours not needed in crops,
lose something that is Irrecover-
able.
