Governor John Co mi ally has
declared the month of October
Texas Cooperatives Month as
part, of the national cooperative
month.
In issuing the proclamation,
Governor Connally joined Agri
culture Commissioner John C.
White in commending the ef-
forts of fanmer-owned, farmer-
. controlled cooperatives for ". . .
•help the farmers maintain their
independence and self-reliance,
and provide the means for in-
,VTox Man Sam Sez:
disic'.unl farmers to process and |
m.irl'et their commodities, pur- J
chase their productions supplies j
and equipment and provide for
themselves electricity and the
other necessary farm services,"
Commissioner White pointed
out that cooperatives are one of
the fastest growing institutions
in America. Since the first co-op
was established in Massachusetts
in 11909, they have gfrown in
number to 538 registered by the
Texas Department of Agricul-
ture alone. Texas cooperatives
have more than 180,000 mem-
bers.
Cooperatives have been form-
ed to market products, help pur-
The principal changes tha>
Congress made tljis year in our
tax laws was the reduction of rp,ase farm supplies, provide
excise taxes. Of course, any tax (^phones and electricity, ex-
cuts benefit the taxpayer, but loans, operate .mutual ir-
the manufacturer usually pays fixation projects, offer insur-
the excise tax. The tax cut will nncr, for health and fire, and im-
be pased on to the taxpayer p,.ovo production through herd
through a reduced price on the improvement associations and
articles that you buy. Most of artificia] breeding cissociations.
"Through the combination of
I strengths in cooperatives, th"
farmers have been able to elimi-
nate individual weaknesses."
said Commissioner White. "For
this reason, the cooperatives are
being saluted."
President Lyndon Johnson
has said of the cooperatives:
"Cooperatives give our Ameri-
can farmer a greater voice in
j how to buy, sell and receive
j necessary supplies, marketing
i and other services. They provide
[ an essential business tool for
[ rural America. Their vital role
: in our aconomv makes it im-
i perative that more of our people
k"ow and understand the impor-
tant nartneivhip which they
form."
us don't spend enough time
keeping up with tax changes
that affect us. There are usual-
ly several each year. We may
not enjoy reading tax instruc-
tions but if we don't keep up
with tax changes we'll miss a
lot of benefits. Ignorance of your
tax affairs can be costly. It's
fine to have a good tax man but
you should also keep yourself
up to date.

Texas A&M Research Center Says
Oats Shouldn't Be Overlooked
Using oats as a winter grazing
forage for beef cattle, research-
ers at Texas A M University's
Livestock and Forage Research
'"enter at McGregor have pro-
vided some realistic figures as to
what cattlemen can expect in
'he way of daily gains, stocking
rate and gain in pounds of beef
per acre.
More than one million acres
of small grains are planted an-
nually in Texas for -winter and
spring forage . M. J. N "is,
agronomist at the McGregor Ex-
periment Station says oats rank
above most other small grains as
•2 forage for many part of Texas.
Oats are palatable; nutritious,
>ven at maturity; have a long
irazing period and have no
plating i«festrittions cdSnpared
to other small grains.
"However, the one disadvant-
agage of oats as a winter for-
age," points out Norris, "is they
are not quite as winter hardy
as a few other small grains."
In the 7-year research test,
steers at McGregor gained 1.7
pounds per day during the win-
ter grazing period from Novem-
ber 15 to March 1. In the spring
grazing period, from March 1
to June 7, the steers averaged
2.4 pounds per day on the oats.
For the entire grazing period.

with no supplemental feed, the
steers gained 2.1 pounds a day.
These figures were at an
average stocking rate of one
animal per 2.7 acres in winter,
and one animal per 1.9 acres in
the spring, or an average of one
animal for 2.1 acres of oats for
the entire grazing period.
Norris figures the steers gain-
ed 52.7 pounds, per acre of oats
crazed in the winter, and 137.!)
pounds per acre grazed in the
spring or a total of 190,8 pounds
"ained per acre of oats for the
entire period.
He noted these gains are not
exceptionally high, but will of-
fer a guideline for cattlemen
about to plaiit oats or small
grains as a winter forage. In
other -words IroSr t cattleman' to
get steer gains comparable to
those at McGregor, he should
plan to plant about 2 acres of
oats or other small grain per
animal to be carried through the
winter.
Norris recommends planting
oats early in the fall—before
October 15, to get the grain off
to a fast start.
"But this brings on the threat
of armyworms until frost
comes,' ne continued. The best
control of armyworms, he said,
is application of Sevin at the
rate of 1 pound active ingredient
per acre.
For good forage production,
fertilize at planting time, ac-
cording to a soil test, advises
Norris. Then delay grazing until
the oats are about 6 to 10 inches
high.
"The best indication of stock
in« rate is a visual estimate.
Stock (pastures so there is a
visual surplus of forage on 25-30
percent of the pasture," said
Norris.
He reminds cattlemen there
will be little growth of the oats
during the cold, short days of
January. It's a good plan to
have a surplus of pasture by
January !. to carry the cattle
thrpiifh the mor'.h or until the
ats bo; in grow in? again.
Application of 20 to -10 pound-;
per acre of nitrogen and av i:l-
fiblo pho-'phorus are recommend-
ed for most areas. The fertilizer
application can be made at

New Process
Developed For
All-Cotton Fabrics
College Station — The recent
development of a mechanical
process for manufacturing dur-
able press and wash-wear all-
cotton fabrics has been hailed
as a major breakthrough by a
number of textile industry lead-
ers, reports Mrs. Lynn Parks
Stiles, Texas A&M University
Extension consumer education
specialist.
This process reduces the
amount of tensile end tear
strength loss in resin-treated
and crosslinked cottons—a ma-
jor stumbling block for manu-
facturers until now.
Micro-stretching, as the pro-
cess is called, is a patented de-
velopment of Raduner & Co. of
Horn, Switzerland, and is a
purely mechanical finishing of
fabric. The inventor is Dr. Al-
fred L'.iuchenauer, research di-
rector at Raduner.
The process will lower pro-
duction costs without sacrificing
quality. In general, it will im-
prove the performance of fa-
brics made from cotton. The me-
chanical treatment can be put
into operation at any point in
the fabric processing procedure,
but. it always must be done be-
before the curing step.
Now wash-wear performance
is made possible for the first
time in lightweight fabrics for
sheer blouses, hankerchiefs
print dresses, sleepwear and oth-
er products which until now
have not been able to withstand
chemical treatments.
Since this process is a mech-
anical method—not chemical —
it is immediately applicable to
all current durable press an'
wash-wear fabrics and dimen-
sional stabilization treatments.
New Stretch
Treatment for Lace
Stretch cotton lace can be
made by a simple, inexpensive
treatment that makes it espe-
cially suitable for fitted slips,
foundation garments and loung-
ing or sleeping apparel, says
Mrs. Lynn Parks Stiles, Texas
A.&M University Extension Ser-
vice consumer education spe-
cialist.
The appearance of most treat-
ed laces is greatly improved.
Richness and depth are added to
inexpensive laces for dresses,
wraps and other garments.
The treatment, called slack
mercerization, consists of soak-
ing woven lace in a solution of
sodium hydroxide. This causes
the fibers to swell and crimp,
which in turn give the fabric
stretchabilitv.
Helen M. Robinson and A. S.
Cooper Jr., of the Southern Uti-
lization Research Laboratory,
New Orleans, have used the
treatment with good results on
a variety of laces, including in-
expensive, lightweight flat lace;
Cluny, a medium-price lace;
and heavy Venice lace. The
greatest improvement :n appcar-
ii the least expen-
ii r in aiment, tin y
ivier and richer.
!a e I; treated af-
• been n, manu-
c.iri continue to use
v a. n . a: 1 standard
equipment to make stretch lace
with the delicate and elaborate
patterns that would be expen-
sive and difficult to weave with
stretch yarns.
Slack mercerizalioji was de-
veloped earJiei at the New Or-
leans laboratory and is now
used by a number of commer-
cial finishers to give stretch to
woven and knit cotton fabrics.
