(Continued From Last Week)
The Association recognized the
importance of developing the inter-
est of our young people in im-
provements of ranching methods.
In cooperation with the State 4-H
Club, a Sheep and Goat and Wool
and Mohair Contest and a Range
Management Demonstration were
set up. Annual awards are given to
the winners of these contests.
Knowing of the advertising value
of eye-appeal, the Association
initiated the Miss Wool program
in 1952. In 1958 the program was
adopted by the National Wool
Growers' Association and placed on
a nation-wide competition basis.

It has resulted in a vast amount
of publicity for wool.
The Association contributes sub-
stantial funds each year to the
Texas Angora Goat Raisers' As-
sociation for the promotion of its
successful Miss Mohair program.
Each year the Association con-
tinues to expand its activities in
promoting the finer qualities of
wool and mohair products.
The.Ladies Auxiliary to the Tex-
as Sheep and Goat Raisers’ Asso-
ciation was organized December
8. 1938, in San Antonio. Among
the many projects undertaken by
this active organization are lamb
promotion, wool and mohair pro-
motion, and the furtherance of
membership in the parent organiza-
tion. Highlights have been praise-
worthy accomplishments in the
"Make It Yourself With Wool"
and “Miss Wool” projects.
One of the benefits of member-
ship in the Texas Sheep and Goat
Raisers’ Association is a one year
subscription to the Sheep and Goat
Raiser Magazine with each year's
dues paid. This popular ranchman's
magazine carries news and informa-
tion of interest to all sheep and
goat producers.
That's the Association’s history.
Its future is up to YOU I

Catherine Ann Davis spent the
The directors of the Texas
Sheep and Goat Kaisers Associa-
tion recently received a comment
from Fashion Creators, Inc., Public
Relations-Fashion Promotions, who
are handling the public relation
program of Miss Wool and Miss
Mohair.
This year the program is dedi-
cated to the College Campus. There
has not been a single college in the
State which the firm has ap-
proached that lias not accepted an
appearance of the Wool and Mo-
hair fashion show, which the firm
lias prepared. The show itself con-
sumes approximately one hour and
when presented on a runway
achieves a glamorous and tempt-
ing image of the wool and mo-
hair industry as a whole. The
modeling squads of the various
universities participate in displaying
the wardrobes along with both
Jean Williams, Miss Wool, and
Sunda Callan, Miss Mohair. These
college girls, who are not only
highly alert to fashion, hut are al-
so the homemakers of tomorrow,
when it will he their province to
select fabrics for home and famliy.
They are now being guided into
choice of wool and mohair as
possessing superior fibers to the
synthetic fabrics.
The firm states they have strong,
sound programs leveled from manu-
facturers to retailers for the 1961
title winner, which again be hand-
led under the auspices of the Nat-
ional Fashion Flxhibitors in Dal-
las, who donated the $5,000 all-wool
wardrobe which is on tour at this
time. The continuity of the pre-
sent program will appear in the
May Fall and Back-to-!school Mar-
ket which will 'be leveled at the
retailer in early July.

Mr. and Mrs. Bob Weldon and
children spent Thanksgiving here
with Mr. and -Mrs. Forrest Wel-
don.
fu) for last week during these
ominous times, but a look at Tex-
as' vital statistics show plenty to
be thankful for. For instance:
Over a half-million babies were
born during the two year period
between September 1958 and Aug-
ust 1960. That equals almost 700
new babies each day.
During the same time period
there were 152,000 deaths—a ratio
of three births per death, certain-
ly something to be thankful for.
Thc?e records were disclosed
from figures compiled for the latest
biennial report from the Records
and Statistics Section of the State
Health Department.
As a result of the birth to death
ratio, Texas* population increased
by 350,000 plus newcomers from
outlying states, bringing the cur-
rent total population to more than
9,500,000.
Filing birth and death certificates
makes up the major portion of the
Section’s workload which totalled
800,000 records and amendments.
This brought the over-all re-
cords on file at the State Health
Department to a big 12,130,000
items.
Since 1936, deaths—during the
first year of life—have dropped
from 71 per one thousand births
to about 30 per thousand today.
The maternal death rate has been
cut 94 percent since 1936.
The amount of work needed to
keep that many records and files
accurate and up-to-date continues
to grow.
Each certificate received is care-
fully reviewed, and fpr each error
or omission noted, a query is for-
warded to the person responsible
for the mistake. During the last two
years 25,000 such queries were
mailed.
Adoptions are reported to the
State Registrar and a new birth
certificate in the name after adop-
tion and showing the adopted par-
ents as the natural parents of the
child is filed.
The original birth record and the
certificate of adoption are placed in
a sealed file. Over 19,000 reports

Amendments for change of
names were attached to more than

court orders.
A stupendous total of 45 million
individual Texas-riscd oysters were
sold on the retail market last year.
More than 90 percent of them pass-
ed through plants on which the
Texas Department of Health had
put its stamp of approval covering
plant sanitation.
Take a look at the calendar.
There’s an “R” in every month
between now and April, and you
know what that’s supposed to
mean. Its the oyster season again.
More millions of the succulent
shellfish are destined for harvest
in the next six months from the
many reefs in inland bay waters
of Texas.
Last year’s harvest was put up in
154,000 one-gallon cans, with about
300 medium sized oysters per can.
A very high percentage of them
were consumed right here at home.
Since oysters are often eaten
raw, it stands to reason they would
be capable of carrying disease. In
the past they did, of course, hut
today to nowhere near the extent
they would if it were not for a
little-known program of plant cer-
tification and water pollution in-
vestigations conducted by the Tex-
as State Department of Health.
The certification program was
in that there
plant operators to seek certifica-
tion. But in order to sell their
oysters in cities which have local
shellfsh ordinances, plants ntust
be certified by the state health
agency. Most major Texas cities
have such ordinances.
Certificates of approval arc re-
newable each year, 1'lants first
undergo a rigid inspection by a
sharp-eyed sanitation specialist, and
rechecks are made monthly there-
after.
The Department approved opera-
tions in 42 plants last year, and
30 plants have earned certification
to date during the current season.
Open season on oyster harvest in
public waters is set by the Game
and Fish Commission, generally
running from September through
April with local variations. But
anyone can lease a plot of bay bot-
tom from the State, establish an
oyster farm and harvest the year
around—the only proviso being
that oysters will grow.
Incidentally, State Health De-
partment shellfish experts say
there's nothing to this "R" month
business. Its just that oysters grow
fatter in winter, and all winter
months have R’s.
