“Read Em and
Reap” OUR ADS
Kirven News
We had fine crowds and unusually
fine services at the Kirven Baptist
Church last weekend. We just
'acked one reaching our goal of 100
in our Sunday school. But the hiRh
pitch was reached Sunday night
v.hen a special progtam was given
in honor of our boys in the service
•ir.d their families. The church was
beautifully decorated in r„J white
ind bice, wiht a huge American
fair. The program consisted of the
reading of the names of all of our
ioys in the Army, Navy, and Air
Corps. Then appropriate songs and
endings. We feel that we are nil
ndel.ted to Mrs. Arthur Richardson
vho planned and directed the pro-
tean:. Th^ highlight of oitr morn-
ing service was the singing of the
original Kirven girls’ quartet. This
s the finest quartet ever turned out
n this section, and it was a real
rcat to have them all present and
o bear them sing again.
We greatly appreciated the fine
?rcup of visitors Sunday night from
Shanks and Burleson. This shows
hat our people are all behind our
joys who are in the service. But
me must remember, that our obli-
;ations to them must go even deep-
er than holding services in their
'lonor although we certainly ought
lot leave this honor off. But we
nust be willing to suffer with them,
by giving up luxuries, working at
vhatever job that presents itself, to
■conomize and buy more and more
.tamps and bonds. This ia an all-out
var and it calls for an all-out effort
if the people at home.
Now, that organised labor seems
o have decided that winning the
var is more important than strikes
ind walkouts to try and chisel the
Government out of extra money, it
s certainly a challenge to the great
ank and file of all common laborers
o put forth the best they have in
he great effort ahead.
Our school is moving along nicely.
)ur faculty, composed of Prof. Gar-
and, Supt.; Mr. Ryburn, Miss Allen,
diss Lee and Mrs. Garland, is work-
ng in perfect harmony. They also
tave the respect and cooperation of
he entire student body, and we
eel that this will prove to be the
nost successful term of our his-
ory.

tave had past. So our prospects in
he future are very bright.
The auditorium was well filled at

Why America Needs
More Cotton Production
Secretary of Agriculture Wickard has called upon
cotton growers to plant their FULL COTTON ALLOT
MENT—4,000,000 acres more cotton than we planted last
season—because the United States vitally needs more of
the products of cotton and cottonseed. These needs in-
clude:
MORE COTTONSEED OIL to supply the nation’s need f*>r
food and industrial fats, and to replace oil formerly im-
ported from Pacific areas. \
MORE COTTON LINTERS to supply the increasing needs
of the munitions industry for this essential raw ma-
terial.
MORE COTTONSEED MEAL AND HULLS to supply
feeds needed by livestock producers for the efficient
production of “Food for Victory.’’
MORE LINT COTTON of certain qualities and grades,
especially longer staple cotton, to meet increasing
needs of the United Nations in their war efforts.
COTTON IS THE ONLY CROP THAT SUPPLIES
ALL OF THESE PRODUCTS
HOW YOU CAN HELP
In order to produce this cotton, it is highly essential
that every cotton grower throughout the South follow
these sound practices:
PLANT THE FULL COTTON ALLOTMENT: Be sure
that you plant every acre of cotton which the AAA legal
allotment permits. Replant as often as necessary to in-
sure a full stand on all of this acreage.
PLANT GOOD SEED: By using quality planting seed,
with a high germination test, you will help to insure
maximum yields.
FERTILIZE ADEQUATELY: Be certain that you use
adequate amounts of fertilizer, adapted to your own
soils, on every cotton acre.
FIGHT THE INSECTS: No cotton farmer can afford,
this season, to suffer costly losses from insects. Poison
promptly and as frequently as needed to reduce insect
damage.
KEEP IT,CLEAN AND PICK IT CLEAN: Keeping
fields free of weeds and grass, and picking all of the cot-
ton this fall, moving it promptly to the gin, are impor-
tant to insure maximum production.
In addition to distributing this information as * pub*
lie service to the Nation and the Cotton Industry, our Cot-
ton Oil Mill will gladly assist you in any way that we can
to insure maximum cotton production. Call on us for any
service that we can render.
