Is strength," C. L. Crim, president
of the Rusk County Agricultural
Association today explained the
reasons for that organization of
farmers and the benefits
have been derived since, it*
ganization two years ago*
"There are a number of things
that a strong farm organization
can do in this county, saying
nothing of the combined effort
throughout the state and nation,”
Crim said.
Crim’s statement was:
“Last year Rusk County Agri-
cultural Association .• sponsored
the dairy show, livestock show,
4-H Club work, and bought vetch
seed cooperatively. This year this
Association has made it possible
for its members to purchase their
fertilizer at a reduced rate, a rate
that should be attractive to every
farmer using fertilizer. This re-
duced rate in its entirety means
that members of the Rusk County
Agricultural Association can get
their fertilizer at a rate of ap-
proximately 18% off per ton.
This is handled by a local man
acting as agent, and who is not
receiving a pennies comperisation
for his trouble. Producers decid-
ing to buy fertilizer and save
this percentage on same should
contact Hoyt Holleman at the
. AAA office who has the records
of the secretary available and can
give you information as to the
purchasing .of the fertilizer. The
fertilizer is being purchased from
the Henderson Oil Mill & Ferti-
lizer Works, since this company
made the association the best
price on the fertilizer. It is be-
lieved that all should work to-
gether and cooperate together if
and when borne owned operations
can meet the price of companies
not in the county, and this was
the case in the fertilizer deal.
"The Rusk County Agricultural
Association is doing everything
possible to assist farmers with
their problems and to help them

CLUNY, France. (UP).—Amer-
ican archaeology experts have
nearly terminated their excava-
tion and restoration work on
the Benedictine Abbey of Cluny,
believed to he the first Gothic
structure ever built in France.
The work is being conducted
under the supervision of Prof.
Kenneth J. Conant of the Har-
vard School of Architecture.
Last year’s work was centered
on the nave of the Abbey, built
between 955 and 981 A.D., the
north wall of the chapter house
and the debris of the Abbe Ponce
cloister. The Cluny research be-
gan in 1929, was continued in
1931, 1932, 1937 and 1938. It is

Advertising renders an important service by bringing to
you the show windows and price tags of the nation,
the columns of this newspaper all through the year, you
can DISCOVER and CONSIDER the things you want to
buy. Thus you need no search through a hundred shops
or pay more than you should.
The rule of advertising is simple. The more people
know about the merit of a product the more people buy it.
The greater the volume of sales, the less it costs to manu-
facture. Savings in producing mean either lower prices
to the consumer or an even greater value the next time
you buy. THIS SAVES YOU MONEY.
So advertising is more
—it’s a service to YOU!

Previous years’ work has been
concentrated on the church of
the Abbey, which was demolished
a century and a quarter ago.
When completed, the Abbey will
be one of the most beautiful
Gothic structures
Europe.
Prof. Conant reports that the
work will require several years
more and he hopes to obtain suf-
ficient funds to carry on until
the job is finished without in-
terruption.

Shure, and every able-bodied I
male is growing one. Translated,
the “jinny gow" in that typical
beard fringe which bristles from
the chin-point beneath the clay
pipe of an Irish cartoon charac-
ter.
When St. Patrick’s Day comes1
to Shamrock town, most of the
men need a shave. But they’re I
proud of their whiskers; proud,
too, of their green top-hats and
! long-tailed coats they wear. And
all the colleens are decked out
in tricky, bodiced costumes.
Although Shamrock has a pop-
ulation of but 4000, it puts on
as fine an honor to St. Patrcik
as con be found in the width and
breadth nf the land.
And every male who refuses
to grow a beard is a “sissy,” sub-
ject to hazing by the loyal Don-
egal. The club members start
the crop of chin-hairs about 60
days prior to the holiday to as-
sure luxuriant foliage by March
17. Those who have red hair con-
sider themselves lucky.
Climax, of course, is St. Pat-
rick’s Day. Business establish-
ments are decorated with banners
of green and white.
There’s a more-than-three-mile-
long parade with prizes for the
best float and the best comedy
stunt. Thore’s a beauty contest
with the fairest flowers of Erin
on exhib’tion. There’s an all-
Irish grid game. There’s a “mar-
chiesta,” to which neighboring
towns send uniformed bands.
A non-profit undertaking, the
festival is expected to draw more
than 20,000 visitors this year,
surpassing previous records.
Shamrock lives up to its name 1
the year round, although the;
percentage of real Irish in tho
town is scarcely larger than av-
erage. Descendants of other races
have become so saturated with
the Irish spirit that they practi-
cally consider themselves from
“the ould sod.”

$2.00 a year. Fifty cents of that
stays in the county to be used by |
the Association whenever and
wherever they see fit. One dollar
and fifty cents they send to the
State Office at Waco. Fifty cents
of that $1.50 goes to the National
Organization to affiliate the Tex-
as Agricultural Association with
the American Farm Bureau of
Federation. Fifty cents of the
remaining dollar pays for the pub-
lishing of the Farmer’s Banner
which every member receives
twice a month and the remaining
fifty cents goes to the payment
of administrative expenses of the
state organization. Two dollars a
year is but very little to consider
the amount each one gets in re-
turn.

Agricultural Association and the
American Farm Bureau Federa-
tio, the $130,000,000 of which
every farmer in this county got
a part in his subsidy payment,
would not nave been available.
Of the $212,000,000 cotton got
$88,000,000, making a subsidy
payment on cotton of approxi-
mately $9 a bale would not have
been available had it not been for
th farm organization. Your farm
organization is continously fight-
ing for the rights of the farmer,
and with these things in mind and
the things that your Organization ;
is doing in your own county, it
seems should be evidence enough
that every farmer and those in-
