Jeb Had the Folks
in Stitches!
At the Friday Night Social,
Jeb Crowell had the audience in
Pitches— doing a take-off on the
blustering character who belittles
•verybody and everything that isn’t
'rom his own home town.
•
Well, we can laugh at that sort
->t character because from where
I sit, Americans are just the op-
posite. We like to boast a bit per-
haps, about the paint job on the
new barn, or the missus' style of
•ooking—but we aren’t intolerant
if people who don’t think or act
•xaetly the same way we do.
In our town, for instance: Some
folks like band concerts, others
don’t — some families serve beer
with dinner, others, buttermilk —
and as for politics, there's plenty of
healthy disagreement.
But when it comes to denying
folks the right to think or act as
they choose ... no, we’re like you
— we don’t believe in it, whether it
goes for serving beer, or speaking
one’a mind on public affairs.

College Station, May 4—Eggs ffre
graded according to quality and size,
! not food value, F Z. Beanblossom,
j extension poultry marketing special-
; ist of Texas A and M College reminds
! housewives and others who are mak-
! irg the mo :t of the plentiiul supplies
; now on the market. Regardless of
j i s grade or quality, an egg is one of
nature’s best packages of food value.
Inside that shell is found high quality
protein, iron, vitamin A, two of the
B vitamins and some vtamin If. An
egg in one of the top quality grades,
AA or A, has a large amount of
firm white and a round, upstanding
yolk. Eggs of these grades are pre-
ferred for poaching, frying and boil-
ing in the shell. Grade B eggs have
thinner whites and somewhat flatter
yolks, but are just as good for scram-
bling, baking and other cooking pur-
poses.
Many families find it pays to buy
grade B eggs for general cooking
because they offer the same food
value, yet may cost 10 to 12 cents a
dozen less than grade A quality eggs
of the same weight.
At any rate, Mr. Beanblossom says,
it pays to read the label on the car-
ton of eggs and figure the cost in
relation to the grade, which means the
quality and size. This purpose for
which eggs are to be used will have
an inflence on the grade to Vie bought.
Now is the time forallposes. nbg
The longer the nation waits to do
something about soil conservation, the
more there will be to do, and at a
much higher price. Once the top-
soil of a farm gets down into the
Gulf of Mexico, it won’t come back.

ZAVALA COUNTY GETS
TWO COTTON PICKERS
Irl Taylor Machinery, representing
the International Harvester Company
received two mechanical cotton pick-
ers this week, the only two pickers
alloted to the Winter Garden this
season, Mr. Taylor says. We under-
stand one of these pickers has already
been purchased by Bernard Guyler
of Crystal City.
There is ro longer any doubt about
the practicability of the cotton pick-
er, and the desireability of complete
mechanization among well informed
growers. It is claimed one of these
pickers will pick as much cotton as
40 to 50 hand pickers per day, or
approximately 1500 pounds of seed
cotton in an hour and thirty minutes,
in cotton that will produce a bale per
acre. Laboratory tests have proven
that the fiber quality of machinized
cotton is as good as that picked by
hand.
The MeCormick-Deerirg cotton pick-
er has been operated satisfactorily at
night with proper lighting equipment
and favorable conditions.
It looks Ike a new day is dawning
for Zavala County—Zavala County
Sentinal.

Experts have it all figured out
that one million sopranos, sing-
ing at the top of their lung pow-
er, can manage to generate
enough electricity to light up a
single 100-watt electric bulb.
Seems like a lot of wasted talent,
when it’s so much easier to flip
a switch — and a lot cheaper!
(As a matter of fact, a penny’s
worth of electricity can keep thfit bulb going for
almost three hours!)
This is merely our way of reminding you that elec-
tric service—for lighting, or cooking, or cleaning, or
sewing or laundry work—is just about the lowest
item in your family budget. Fact is, the average
South Texas family is still getting more than twice
as much electricity for its money as it got 20 years *
ago.
In an era of sky-high costs, that’s service—for a
song!
