J. E. Myers, Morgan Mill, has 19

of vetch into Erath county. The

hives.

Giles Will Ask
$50 Million for
Vet Land Buying
Austin, July 16, tw—Baacom
Giles, seeking re-election as gen-
eral land commissioner of Texas,
said today he would ask the next
regular session of the Legislature
to add 160,000,000 or more to the
veterans lend program.
An original $26,000,000, appro-
priated as the base for a revolving
loan fund to land-buying veterans
of World War II, will be spent this
year; Giles said.
He said that 3,000 farms had
t>een purchased for Texas veterans,
and another 1,000 appraised and
ready for action by thfe Veterans
Land Board.
Under the program, veterans are
allowed to purchase land with a
five per cent down payment, three
per cent interest and 40 years in
which to repay the loan.
The iron dome of the capitol in
Washington, D. C., weighs a total
of 8,IKK!,200 pounds.
T’HIS country baa a wonderful op-
portunity. Some can sue it.
Others are indifferent. The rani
estate men toll us that buyers from
all parts at the Southwest are in
StephenviUe every day wanting to
purchase acreage. This department

backs of any county in an the
Southwest. The increased fertility
of our soil is amazing; it is almost
unbelievable. But the results tell
the Story. Maybe we have had
thing* too easy in this town and
this section of Texas. Regardless
of those contingencies there is n
lesson from such places as the
Experiment Farm being operated
here by the Extension Service of
AAM College that can well be ap
plied—anywhere, and at any time.
Getting back to the subject of
peaches, drive out to the packing
sheds of the farm on the Mineral
Wells highway and see what ia

of the skeptics and arouse the en-
thusiasm of the most ardent

YOUR VOTE APPRECIATED
(pouticai. advertisement)
J^EXT Sunday the Dally Empire
will be an interesting paper be-
cause it will coptain the election
returns from every voting precinct
in Erath county as well aa from
the Texas Election Bureau. As-
sembling the local vote and com-
piling the totals is s tedious un-
dertaking and requires long hoars
of close application of a large
number of people. However, the
job will be done and readers can
expect to know fairly well who
the winners are when they get
their paper next Sunday morning.
Returns from all of the state will
be received over our own leased
wire which runs directly to this
office from the United Press at
Dallas. The Texas Election Bureau
is an organization of a group of
Texas dally newspapers that has
for its purpose compiling the vote.
The Daily Empire, it so happens,
is a member of this group. In brief,
look for a full and complete count
of the vote in the news columns of
this paper next Sunday.
'J’HE war scare wave of buying
that has hit the large cities
has not yet reached the smaller
towns. But business is kicking up
with most merchants. The perils
ef war asay be with es for e
period of several years—prob-
ably will—yet, there seems to be
no good reason for the buying
hysteria that Is sweeping the
country. If it keeps np govern-
ment controls will Ip here just
that much quicker.
'J’HE public schools of Stephen-
ville and Tarleton State College
will both soon have facilities that
will be unsurpassed in their two
classes in all the country. A bond
voted three months ago wiU
add much to the usefulness of the
public schools in the way of new
classrooms and other equipment.
No time should be lost in getting
these improvements under way.
Materials are going higher day by
day and the longer we wait the
greater the cost. Tarleton started
new ag building the past week,
to be ready for occupancy some
time next year—and it’ is some-
thing that will fill a long felt
need. There are other good school
systems in Erath county—one of
the top units being at Dublin. The
plain truth is that there are very
few counties in Texas with a
deeper appreciation of the worth
of schools and churches than will
be found in Grahd Old Erath.
Along with our other advantages
this is another reason why so
many newcomers are drifting this
way.
Winters in South Texas
Gillespie says it pays to.winter
bees in South Texas. '
“The bees can get along with law
honey in the warmer climate,” he
said, “sad I have more honey to
sett.”
Dalby, who winters his bees at
Uvalde, has kept bew since 1986.
H* brought his hives to Erath
county May 12, and will take them
to Plainview soon so that his char-
ges may eat their fill of alfalfa,
clover and eotton blooms.
Dalby raises Italian bees, while
Gillespie raises the Caucasian bee,
the “gentlest bee known."
Myers also raises Italian bees
and has a ready market for hia
honey.
“1 live on the highway,” Myers
said, “and have no trouble, selling
comb honey for 20 cents a pouncL"
Gillespie and Dalby sell six types
of honey; the yetch, cotton bloom,
alfalfa, clover, South Texas and
orange bloom. In addition, Myers
has a ready market for the honey
produced by his bees in the San
Luis Valley of Colorado, where yel-
low sweet clover grows.
Erath Good Bee County
Erath county is one of the best
spots in Texas for bees, the man
said. With a bit more sweet clover,
cotton or hubam to follow the vetch
season, the county could be ideal
bee country.
County Agent G. D. Everett said
that 36,000 acres were planted to
vetch this year. Half of this vetch
was allowed to seed, and the other
half turned over. The vetch has
been planted since 1939, with in-
creased acreage each year since,
and the bee industry has grown ac-
cordingly. rr
OCHOA IN PEN
Mexico City, July 16 llfl—Texas
customs broker George W. Ochoa
was lodged in the federal district
penitentiary today until Mexican^
authorities determine whether he
is a Mexican citizen. Ochoa, cap-
ered in Mexicali, Baja California,
early this week is wanted in Lare-
do, Tex., on an indictment charging
him with two murders. The U. S.
embassy has asked the Mexican
Government to permit hit extra-
dition.

Superfortress in the Galiuro Mouiw
tains near here rose to four today.

“Before we got into the fight in
North Korea there might have
been, some argument that jets,
with their 600-mile hourly speed

would not be well-suited to ground
strafing and rocket attacks, which
are necessary under the conditions
we are meeting in Korda.
“All 1 have to do to prove this

record. F-80s have flown 70 per
cent of all combat sorties of the
Air Force over Korea and have
accounted for 86 per cent of North
Korea vehicle and material leases.
“Rocket and machinsgun fire
from F-80s have blown up more
tanks, trucks and other equipment
than all other types of air attack
combined.” Jj

I.08ER’S LAMENT
Some years ago I was visiting
in a country home in the deep
South and picked up a very old,
worn book from the table, and
my eye caught the brief dramatic
story of the experience of a man
in Arkansas who was defeated in
his candidacy for sheriff. 1 quote
it Wow exactly as I copied it out
of the record:
Lost four months and twenty
days canvassing; lost 1,300 hours
of sleep thinking about the elec-
tion: lost 40 acres of corn and a
whole lot of sweet potatoes; lost
two front teeth and a lot of hair
in a personal encounter with an
opponent; doimtod one beef, four
shoata, and five sheep to barbe-
cues; gave away two pairs of sus-
penders, five calico dresses, five
dolls and fifteen baby rattlers;
kissed 126 babies; kindled 14 kitch-
en fires; put up eight stoves; cut
14 cords of wood; carried 24 buck-

Mrs. Pyllis Goff,. 1902 Park Ave.,
Indianapolis, Indiana, is now able
to go about her housework in less
time than it takes to talk about it.
That is, of course, since Mrs.'Goff
has been taking wonderful HAD-
ACOL. Mrs. Goff had been suf-
fering from a deficiency of Vita-
mins Bl, B2, Niacin, and Iron,
which HADACOL contains.
Now full of pep and energy,
Mrs. Goff is able to give this fine
statement: “It’s pretty bad when
you are in a run-down condition
when you are only -82. That in-
cludes headaches, loss of sleep
I was also terribly nervous
all the time. Then I heard about
the wonderful results other folks
were getting from HADACOL.
After taking a few bottles my
nerves were calmed. I got a good
night’s sleep, and I gained five
pounds. I think HADACOL Is
wonderful. I recommend it to all
my friends.”
This it another one of the
statements the fine folks who have
been taking HADACOL gave us.
Yes, there are thousands and
thousanda of people all over the
country who are getting blessed
relief from wonderful HADACOL
when they needed Vitamins Bl,
B2, Iron, and Niacin.
Lei HADACOL H«tp Yon
... if you ere suffering from
stomach distress, nervousness, in-
somnia, constipation, aches and
pains of nouritis, or a general
run-down condition, caused by
such deficiencies. Remember, It
will cost you nothing if HADA-
COL doesn’t help you. Buy either
the trial size for $1.26 or the large

and if you ar* not completely sat-
isfied—return the bottle and your
money will be refunded.
