Desserts with an elegant appearance don’t always require a lot
of ingredients or preparation time. An excellent case in point is
“Tokay Cheese Dessert Dip.”
Clusters of Flame Tokay grapes are served on dessert plates
with small bowls of a dip combining cream cheese, cranberry juice
cocktail, and cardamom. Dip individual grapes into the mixture as
a delightful finale for a hearty dinner. Pass an assortment of
favorite cheeses and crackers to accompany this Continental dessert.
Fruit and cheese are ideal partners on any occasion, and the crisp
texture of Tokays is particularly compatible with a host of popular
cheeses. Low in calories yet quite filling, Tokays are also good
snacks to tuck into lunch boxes and to enjoy between meals.
The ruby-hued grapes halved and seeded turn fruit salads, meat
sauces, pies and cakes into extra-special treats.

Fertilizer Will
Increase Yield
Phosphate fertilizer placed with
small grain at time of planting
is worth five more bushels per
acre. This was the result of a
test conducted by C. O. Spence,
Area Agronomist last year.
On the Killis Melton farm in
the Foncine community, tests
were conducted by placing fer-
tilizer in the seed furrow, one
half way between the drill rows
and broadcast prior to sowing.
Mr. Melton’s yield from putting
fertilizer in seed furrow was 31.3
bushels. In contrast, wheat plant-
ed after fertilizer had been broad-
cast yielded 26.1 bushels.
In addition to the increased
yield, Spence has determined that
winter growth can be increased
two to three times by planting
phosphate in the drill row with
the seed, then top-dressing with
nitrogen immediately or as soon
as the plant is established. This
method of applying fertilizer also
increases the winter hardiness of

other livestock can be cleared

tains an operations staff at each
of the reservoirs who report di-
rect to the district office.

Unless the study committee of
the Texas Legislature Council
comes up with something better,
Traeger served notice he intends
to submit his plan to the next
Legislature.
Sen. George Moffett of Chilli-
cothe, committee chairman, indi-
cated repeatedly that the panel
is aiming for a plan in which no
district varies more than five per
cent in population from the math-
ematical average of 416,508.
Mental Retardation Plan
Texas’ biggest eitort to initiate
a plan reaching into many com-
munities for combating mental re-
tardation is under way.
Planning work was authorized
by a special committee appt inted
by Governor Connally.
Goal of the committee is to
measure the size of the problem,
pinpoint available services and
accurately forecast needs to treat
and prevent retardation. A long-
range study is planned under fed-
eral grants.
Mental retardation afflicts 300,-
000 Texans. Over 8,000 mentally
retarded children are born each
year, the committee was told.
Lubbock Chosen
After inspection covering 12,-
000 miles and 17 cities, the State
Board for Hospitals and Special
Schools picked- Lubbock as the
site for a new school for the men-
tally retarded. Estimated cost is
$2,500,000.
School will serve an 84-county
West Texas area.
Plainview, Odessa, El Paso,
Levelland, Midland, Fort Stock-
ton and Amarillo also were seri-
ously considered as sites. Thirty-
nine cities originally expressed
interest in having the facility.
Disaster Plan Studied
A new “hospital zone support
concept” which would link all
Texas hospitals in the event of
a major disaster was unveiled
here.
Texas Medical Association and
the State Advisory Committee on
Health and Medical Aspects of
Civil Defense have set up a
statewide conference of disaster
medical care directors. They will
detail medical and health dis-
aster plans.
Texas Hospital Association in-
itiated the project for the linking
of hospital services and the hand-
ling of casualties.

Reservoirs
Prevent Flood
Damage
Col. F. P. Koisch, District En-
gineer, Fort Worth District, U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers, re-
ports that more than 6%2 million
dollars of flood damage to the
North Texas area was averted
due to the Corps of Engineers
reservoirs which have been con-
structed in the upper Trinity
River Basin.
A team of Corps of Engineers
technicians went into action over
the weekend when indications of
flooding became obvious in the
Dallas-Fort Worth area.
At the first indication of flood-
ing last Sunday, representatives
of the Army Engineers’ Hydrol-
ogy Section began close watch
on flooding conditions in the res-
ervoirs. At the same time, teams
from the Economic, Engineering,
Survey, and Operations Division
of the Fort Worth District, went
into the field to inspect and check
on flood damage occurring, con-
ditions of levees, and reservoir
levels.
in his work car . . . which ap-
parently was an exceedingly rat-
tle-trappy car. And one day Lyn-
don commented that “riding in
this car isn’t much better than
walking” . . . and Puckett forth-,
with fired him for such youthful
impudence.
Old acquaintances of the Pres-
ident say that Mr. Johnson al-
ways punctuates the story with
a'chuckle. Whether he’s teasing
or truthful, no one really knows.
But nevertheless, it makes a
humorous case when you realize
that today the Highway Depart-
ment has designated a special
number for the road which passes
by Mr. Johnson’s home: Ranch
Road 1.
EAMMMdaMMEEE
Maintaining a round-the-clock
control center at their district
office at 100 W. Vickery Blvd.,
the Army Engineers, by a two-
way radio kept in close contact
with the twelve reservoirs and
mobile units under the jurisdic-
tion of this district.
In the four major upper Trin-
ity Basin reservoirs alone, more
than 280,000 acre-feet of water
was accumulated since last
Thursday. At Garza-Little Elm,
145,000 acre-feet has been accum-
ulated; while at Grapevine, 29,-
400; Lavon, 112,000; and Ben-
brook, 2,900.
Other reservoirs under the jur-
isdiction of the Fort Worth Army
Engineer District, as of 7 a.m.
Wednesday, September 23, had
collected the following amounts
of water: Belton, 6,500 acre-feet;
Canyon, 200 acre-feet; Dam B,
2,260 acre-feet; Hords Creek, 630
acre-feet; Proctor, 51,900 acre-
feet; San Angelo, 50 acre-feet;
and Whitney, 5,200 acre-feet.
(One acre-foot of water is equal
to 326,000 gallons of water.)
Colonel Koisch pointed out
that during the past four days
floodwaters have accumulated
behind Belton, Proctor, Garza-
Little Elm, and Lavon dams. He
pointed out that when floodwat-
ers accumulate in a reservoir, it
is necessary to release the waters
as sogn as the downstream chan-
nels are cleared to make room
for nore floodwaters that might
hit the watershed of the reser-
. voir.
When flood released from dams
re dictated, the project engin-
eers at each reservoir will notify
key points downstream from the
dam that releases are to be made
Favorite Story
As National Highway Week and
preparation for the nation’s Pres-
idential election coincide this
this year, it seems the perfect
time to tell .one of the Texas
Highway Department’s favorite
stories. *
For one of the Texas Highway
Department's most famous ex-
employees is President Lyndon B.
Johnson.
As a youth of 15 or so, Mr.
Johnson worked for the Highway
Department near his home town,
Johnson City, in Blanco County.
That was back around 1922. The
project he worked on was U. S.
290 and the average pay was $3
a day.
The boy performed ssidh varied
tasks as running office"errands,
driving a gravel truck, clearing
brush and rocks from the right
of way, and helping field survey
parties. Department employees
who worked with him recall,
however, that even then Lyndon
Johnson had his eyes on the fu-
ture.
“Even then Lyndon always
used to say he was going to be
President,” reminisced one em-
ployee. “He had big ideas, and
he wanted to do something big
with his life.”
President Johnson has one story
about his days with the Highway
Department that he likes to tell
on himself whenever he and
State Highway Engineer D. C.
Greer happen to be at the same
social gathering.
The story goes something like
this:
The President’s boss in those
days was a J. W. Puckett, now
deceased. Puckett used to pick up
young Lyndon and his other men
to drive them out to the job site

“Not until election time does
the American citizenry divide,
one taking one path, one another.
Then, and virtually only then
does one ponder, ‘Wonder which
way he votes?’ as a neighbor
walks down the street . . . Just
the same, one does not cease pat-
ronizing the grocer because he
votes Republican, you vote Dem-
ocratic. One does not cut his good
neighbor off with a sneer because
the voting choice differs. Demo-
crats sit next to Republicans as
usual in church and worship con-
tinues as if there were no elec-
