When farm people demonstrate that the soil is our greatesit
heritage and that it is our responsibility to conserve; the soil
and use it wisely, there follows general community imrove-
ment. Fields become green with improved pastures anil forage
crops. Steep hillsides are grassed instead of row-cropped. Pure-
bred animals replace scrubs.
Then rural communities become organized to improve roads
and markets. There are better churches, new and remodeled
homes, and community buildings with picnic areas. This en-
thusiasm for rural progress spills over among the business
interests of the county as well. It makes for better living for
everyone.
Modern farming equipment takes the drudgery
out of farming. Saves on labor bills, too. See our line
of labor-saving equipment.

1 Glen McCamey, farmer who lives
two miles west of Frisco, was in-
jured seriously Saturday about 5
p. m. when he came into contact
with 7,200 volts of electricity on
a pole near Frisco. The pole carried
the line with a 10 KVA transformer.
W. C. Crombie of the Denton
County Electric Cooperative said
the man apparently used an exten-

for rats and mice.
Clear away weeds and sterilize
the soil around the buildings. Check
buildings and bins for leaks and
rodent entrances and make repairs
where necessary.
Stonewall
, When you run into a stonewall
and you can’t tear it down, the best
way to keep moving forward is to
go around. Actually that’s what a
lot of farm people are doing in
Collin County at this time. Allot-
ted acres on cotton and wheat have
forced them to face up the fact that
they must take another road toward
the same goal, happiness, or pros-
perity. Livestock represent that
road. Livestock promotes sound ro-
tations, improves soils, provides
year round employment and makes
for a regular income.

cides used for controlling other

j Leafhoppers
’ Leafhoppers are dark green in
J color and actual hop and fly about
’ in a swarming move as a person
walks through a field that has a
heavy infestation of these insects.

Army worms' in damaging num-
bers require one quart of Toxa-
phene to two quarts if full grown
; and found in damaging numbers.
■ Plan Now for Grain Harvest
The rush of harvest time can be
eased by cleaning combines, trail-
ers, elevators and dump pits before
। harvest. Clean all empty bins and
use a residual spray on walls, floors
and overhead beams. A spray of
two and one-half per cent DDT or
methoxychlor at rates of two gal-
lons for each 1,000 square feet of
surface area is recommended. Spray
mixtures of five-tenths per cent
pyrethrins also are effective.
Commercial feed and seed should
not be kept in buildings used for
grain storage, it reduces chances
of contamination by weevils, says
