Lampasas women have it largely in their power to decide how
many people will get and hold jobs with Lampasas enterprises—
how much money will circulate in Lampasas trade channels^—how
much money will be deposited in Lampasas banks—how much taxes
will be paid to maintain Lampasas schools, and in the last analysis
how much their own income will grow in Lampasas.
By spending here at home what their husbands earn at home,
Iximpasas women have it in their power to make Lampasas one of
the brightest spots in this section.

The instructor, C. A. Wilkins, has
two night schools for local communi-
ties now in operation. One of these
is being held in Unity community
and the other is being held in the
Adamsville community. In both
schools this week the subject for dis-
cussion was, “Standardizing Eggs for
the Lampasas County Poultry Produ-
cers.”
There are twenty-four enrolled for
this study in the Unity community
and twenty-six in the Adamsville com-
mounity. Considerable interest is be-
ing manifested in both schools. It
is through studies of this nature that

Chicago, Oct. 26.—Roger Graham,
a song writer of the blues era, died
yesterday in the Cook County Hos-
pital after an illness of several
months.
Graham, who was 53, had written
about 200 other songs, but his most
popular was “I • Ain’t Got Nobody,”
which he composed more than 20
years ago,. Spencer Williams wrote
the music.
When Graham wrote the’ hit tune
that starts “I Ain’t Got Nobody, and
Nobody Cares for Me,” he was .rid-
ing the crest of popularity and stars
of the stage and the old silent screen
were his friends. Yesterday he was
forgotten and alone when he died.
His body was taken to the county
morgue. . •
Miss May Hill, who divorced Gra-
ham in 1926, said that “It seems im-
possible that Roger should die like
that. I know his friends will come
students know that instruction thru
leaflets and bulletins are of little
value because of the lack of person-
al contact.
Through the help of members from
the local vocational agricultural class,
who have had training in this line,
a comparative demonstration of the
classification of market* eggs from
the weight basis was made. A sam-
ple of eggs from Mrs. Walter Wal-
ker’s flock of the Unity community
gave an average weight of almost
27 ounces per dozen;. a sample of
eggs from R. L. Harrell flock of Ad-
amsville gave an average weight of
slightly above 24 H ounces per dozen.
Both of these are fair averages for
standard flocks of birds. The aver-
age from the Walker flock is indeed
well within the heavy weight class.
If this were fell of the story it would
mean but little, but the Walker flock
from actual records is averaging 180
to 210 eggs per hen per year and
the Harrell flock is averaging 160 to
180 eggs per year per hen. The av-
erage for the county as a whole is
from 20 to 80 eggs per hen per year.
This means that the two flocks are
giving an average income of $1.00 to
$1.20 per hen per year above the cost
of production and that the average
flocks of the county are kept at an
average loss of 60c to 80c per hen
per year. How long will Lampasas
County remain so low in production
of standard poultry products f We can
do as well as the Hamilton County
poultry producer in the production of
quality poultry products. Breeding,
deeding, culling, and caring for the
poultry flock will produce standard
quality products and fair profits.
Harry Culver, Sam Shurtleff, Bill
Grovers and. C. W. Howard of the
local chapter have been giving ma-
