The planting of Castor Beans in Comanche County
may meet a demand that is much neded for the armed
forces and at the same time give the farmers a money
crop that will take/ the place of revenue lost from the re-
duction in the peanut acreage.
By careful investigation of the possibility of this
crop with the county agent and others who are in the
know our people may find something that would be well
worth their time and money investment.
It is said the bean is well adapted to this territory
and will hold the' soil. Any crop that is planted should
bd in line with a well planned soil conservation program.

_______DE LE0N FREE PRESS, DE LEON, TEXAS, FRIDAY, MARCH 16, 1951
He fears fer the worst—said it
looked as tho he would have to do
something and offer suin kind of
piece offering as the wiinmin was
shore nuff mad and had refused I
to help in the crops any more until
sum kind of coats came along.
Aunt Buna lows as to how she
could have a got lots of mink coats
when she was a gal if she were a
mine to. Why says aunt Buna all
I would a had to do wus to wink
at any ole man and show him my
ankles and he would a giv me any
kind of coat. Thet she can’t un-
derstand what fools men is when
it cums to giving sum pretty gal a
costly coat that cost the tax payers
money.
So that’s the way it goes. Both
me and Jim is shore doing a lot
of thinkin these days cause we don t
aim to eat no apple like Adam did
and we shore don’t like cold bread.

SO cents-‘-seenrs it went like this:
She said a man wanted her to
change a dollar. She did not have
the change so gave him SO cents
and he gave her a nickle in ex-
change. When she complained she
was told that he had given her the
money. So it goes. Going to get
religion and all we gits is short
change. Looks like we kin do bet-
ter than that at home.

wimmin folks is mad at him fer
a strange woman a
when they aint had a
nigh to ten years.
Another ole lady sex she believes
that wimmin aint got no place a
foolin around in places like the
Pentagon—that all wimmin is good
fer is to powder thar noxe, shed a
few tears and look innercent like—
that most of cm is mean as the
devil and that she aint never seed
too women that liked each other.
Well that’s one time, that me and
Jim just kept our mouths shut.
Another woman said that . she
wished she could set on the jury
that tried that gal fer gittin the
coat—she would give her the elec-
tric chair.
Then sum one asked what kind
of a jury that would be,most likely
to free the gal—Ma lows that men
would. Why, sex ma all the accus-
ed would have to do would be smile
at the jury of men and git a han-
dykerchef out and blow her nose
a time or two and sho her legs and
that would mean they would let her
go. Men is the biggest dumb bells
1 ever saw sex ma.
About that time I sex look here
honev—you is woman aint you?
She sex course I is Pete and whut
is you up to now’. Then when I
gins to reach fer my hat cause I
knows that I aimed to a-sk a (iu*8'
tion or two. Just had my hat ready
in case:
I sed honey is all wimmin handy
at takin advantage of the goodness
of men—she lows they all is but
me. I aint never tuck advantage
of you and Jim but I wants you to
git this straight if things don t
change fer the better I aims to put
on all my wiles and ole moher Eve
won't have nothin on me—cause I
aims to make you both eat apples
and cold bread till you git to show
your appreciation of my giving the
best years of my life to you.
It was nigh oq to time to milk
and Jim sex look here pa we better
git out and git the cows in the pen
so ma kin milk before it gits too
late.

a readin about the
mink coat of the RFC—mn is mad
a wet hen and says she dun
worked fer ine and Jim all her
life and she aint got nuthin out
of the deal but callusus on
good case of rhuma-
tism. When me and Jim offered
to use the lightning oil she grabbed
fer the broom handle and we dun
tuck off fer the barn. She kin-
der cooled off when we told her
that we is a figgerin on ketchin a
coon and gitting the tanner to
make it into a mink coat—she said
that would beat no coat a tall.
