VA Warns Against
Magazine Racket
The Veterans Administration
has not authorized anyone to
sell magazine subscriptions or
solicit funds to purchase wheel
Chairs, etc., for veterans.
That was the warning given
today by C. A. Tosch, manager

Tesch’s warning came after
he bad received a call from a
Fannin county Woman to the
effect that she had been ap-
proached with such an offer.
Tosch said that if the house-
wife did not want to subscribe
to the magazine, they were
asked for a donation.
"We have not authorized any-
one to solicit magazine sub-
scriptions or seek . donations for
any. purpose," Tosch said. ;

By Rep. James D. Cole
Until the Governor delivered
his message to the House and
Senate Wednesday, little regu-
lar business was done in the
Legislature.
The Senate is at work
hearing bills in committees.
The House will start commit-
tee hearings next week since
Speaker Barnes announced
committee appointments Mon-
day.
I was appointed to the follow-
ing committees: Highways and
Roads, Liquor Regulation, Mu-
nicipal and Private Corpora-
tions, Privileges, Suffrage and
Elections, and again I will
serve as vice chairman to the
Aeronautics committee.
In next week’s report, I will
describe the responsibilities
of the committees that I will
serve on during this session.
Last week I introduced
a House bill to allow East Tex-
as State college to have its own
board of regents.
The public school teachers’
$45 a month pay raise bill by
Rep. George Hinson has my sig-
nature, support, and interest,
Over 50 per cent of the House
membership is baking this bill.
Another bill of interest to
teachers is Rep. Wayne
Gibbens’ bill which would pro-
vide for a maximum of five
days paid sick leave each year.
Teachers could accumulate up
to 30 days sick leave.
In the Senate, Senator Bill
Moore has introduced S. B. 56
which would tighten up the
law dealing withselling mer-
chandise on Sunday.■
.Under Moore’s bill 40 items
can not be sold on Sunday. A-
mong the items are clothing,
assessories, footwear, furni-
ture, appliances, radios, tele-
vision sets, hardware, semi-pre-
cious stones and toys.
Senate Bill No. 11 by Patman
would create a commission to
study the reorganization of
State government.
The commission would in-
clude three House members,
three Senate members, and six
from private life.
The purpose of this study
would be to secure the most ef-
ficient services at a reasonable
outlay of state tax money — to
abolish unnecessary services
and activities, to eliminate du-
plication and overlapping of
services, as well as to insure
sound purchasing practices and
■accounting procedures.
Rep. Jack Hightower has in-
troduced a bill to make parents
liable for damage done to pri-
vate and public property, where
such damage has been done by
teenage children.
A proposed constitutional
amendment which would do a-
way with the poll tax as a vot-
ing requirement has been drop-
ped into the hopper by Dallas
representatives Blankenship
and Stroud.
Since we each were allotted
only a couple dozen inaugural
invitations, I have not mailed
out any.
However as you already
know, each and every citizen of
Texas was invited to be here
for the ceremonies. Those who
would like a souvenir invitation,
please contact me. I will mail
the invitations to the first 20
persons who request them.
The women of the First Pres--
byterian church had moderat-
ed discussions of Eph. 2:11-22 at
the circles meeting Monday.
Pointing out that Paul puts
first things first, the modera-
tors brought out that in earlier
verses he had placed empha-
sis on becoming “new men in
Christ.” In this study on “The
Community in Christ,” Paul
brings up the new Community.
As fellow citizens with
the saints and members of the
household of God, nothing
should separate us from any
who are Christian. Unredeem-
ed men can’t act like Chris-
tians.
But Christians must draw to-
gether into a fellowship of the
redeemed, Paul brings out in
these verses, the mod-
erators said. They pointed out
that he goes further in Col. 3:11,
and says there is neither, Greek,
Jew, slave, free, male or fe-
male, etc. Both the hew man
and the new community depend
upon “the greatness of God’s
power,” and do not achieve
these goals alone, the modera-
tors brought out.
The monthly emphasis on
World Missions was given at
each of the three circles. The
family night World Mis-
sions dinner with a missionary
speaker wasannounced for
Thursday night, Feb. 11.
Circle No. 2
The members of Circle No.
2 met with Mrs. Charles Tosch
at 9:30 a.m. and were served
coffee and cakes as they ar-
rived.
Mrs. Reid Spivy, Jr., circle
chairman, presided and also
moderated the lesson. Mrs.
Tosch gave the monthly World
Missions emphasis.
Circle No. 1
Mrs. J. B. Birdwell was host-
ess, for circle No. 1 at 3 p.m.
when Mrs. Ray Dielman, circle
chairman, presided,
Mrs. Fred Johnson gave a
historical background of the
great cultural city of Ephesus
in moderating the lesson. Mrs.
A. S. Anderson gave the em-
phasis, and Mrs. James Car-
michael brought the devotional.
The hostess served a dessert
plate and coffee to 11 members.
Circle No. 3
Mrs. Cecil Birdwell wars host-
ess at 7:30 p.m. for circle No.
3, with Mrs. Z. Z. Mitchell, cir-
cle chairman, presiding.
Mrs. Mitchell moderated the
lesson with all members taking
part in a discussion period and
Mrs. Aubrey McAlister gave
the World Missions emphasis.
The hostess served refresh-
ments to nine members. 3

No Injuries in
2-Car Collision
There were no injuries in a
2-car collision on U. S. 82, 2.1
miles east of Dodd City, Wed-
nesday morning.
Highway Patrolman Dwayne
Cox identified the drivers as
Anderson Brown of Ida-
bel, Okla., and Robert E. Rob-
inson of 604 Lipscomb, Bon-
ham.
Patrolman Cox said Brown
was coming west on U. S. 82
and Robinson was going east
at the time of the accident.
The officer estimated damage
at $200.
GUARANTEED
TRACTION
Mrs. Alma Baugh gave the
program at the Janet Ray cir-
cle of the First Baptist church
at the Monday afternoon meet-
ing in the home of Miss Billy,
Barnett.
Taken from the study book
“Frontiers of Advance,” Mrs
Baugh taught the chapter on
“Old Assignments — New Ap-
proach,” which was the last
chapter in the study.
While the members pieced
quilt blocks from pieces they
had brought to the meeting,
Mrs. Baugh told of the chang-
ing times and its affect on the
work of the Missions Board.
She told how the religions of
the Buddhists and other reli-
gions have advanced through
revolutions.
The quilt blocks will be put
together for quilts for Buck-
ner’s children’s home and for
the needy at other sessions of
the group.
A Home Freezer
What does it cost to own and
use a home freezer? Does it
pay its way or is it a simple
convenience? .
Whether the family's food
budget will be reduced or in-
creased by the use of a home
freezer depends on whether
food is homegrown or purchas-
ed, kinds and quantities of food
frozen and how the freezer is
used.
Here is what a year's cost for
home freezing, exclusive of
the cost of the food froz-
. en, looks like. The example is
based on a $150, 12-cubic foot
freezer, 360-pound capacity,
with three, conditions — no turn-
over of frozen foods and with
turnovers of 50 to 150 per cerit.
Marketing — Marketing can
be done less frequently. Save
time and wear and tear on you.
To do this will take more plan-
ning, but it can represent a sub-
stantial saving of time.
If you are planning to buy a
freezer, or you are just trying
to get more mileage out of the
one you now have, you may
find these ideas helpful.
Depreciation — One way you,
might figure the depreciation
of the freezer is to estimate
how much it would take to re-
place it. With a life expectancy,
of 15 years, it would take an
annual investment of $8.20 at 3
per cent interest compounded
annually, to replace the freez-
er. Note that depreciation re-
mains the same regardless of
turnover of food.
Interest Foregone — This
means the interest you would
have gotten from your $150 had
you invested it instead of spend-
ing it for a freezer. At 3 per
cent interest compounded semi-
annualiy the amount would be
$5.63. Again, the same regard-
less of turnover of food.
Incidentally, this anticipated 3
per cent is very con-
servative. Today, you very eas-
ily get a return of 4 to 412 per
cent.
Repairs — Actually home
freezers have been in general,
use too short a time to give
much experience on repairs.
But 2 per cent of the initial
cost, or $3 seems to be a fair
amount. This also is the same
regardless of turnover.
Cost of Operations — Opera-
ting costs vary, depending on
such factors, as size and design
of the freezer, capacity of the.
compressor, freezer location
and your local electric rate. To
freeze a pound of food and low-
er its temperature of 0 degrees
would require .25 kilowatt
hours per cubic foot of
freezer space per 24 hours. At
212 cents per kilowatt hour,
this would amount to $27.38 in
a year’s time. 21
< Packaging — Estimating the
cost of packaging materials at
2 cents per pound. This would
amount to $7.20 for 360 pounds
of food; $10.80 for 540 pounds
and $18 for 900 pounds of food.
So you cansee that owning
and operating a home freezer
is an expensive proposi-
tion. You can see, too, that as
you increase your turnov-
er, you reduce the cost per
pounds of freezing the food.
What can you do to make
your home freezer pay its way?
These ideas might help:
increase turnover, grow
your own food, shop sales, buy
in quantity, plan ahead.
Now is the time to fight rats.
With cold weather, rats move
from outdoors into houses and
farm buildings in search of food,
and shelter.
Just 50 rats can eat enough
grain annually to feed a dairy
cow for a year. One rat can eat
about two-thirds as much mash
as a hen, but they waste and
contaminate many times more
food than they eat.
If you see one rat, you can
be sure that there are others.
In addition to destroying grain
and feed, rats carry more than’
35 known diseases to man and
animals. They also gnaw on
anything that comes between
them and their food supply —
grain bags, paper cartons and
wooden containers — and start
fire by damaging wire insula-
tion.
How do you get rid of them?
By removing their shelter,
starving them out, and
ratproofing buildings. Use con-
crete, galvanized sheet metal,
brick, hardware cloth or alu-
minum. Build foundations and
basement floors and walls with
concrete. Store grain and other
feed on pallets in rat proofed
rooms.
Poisoning is the most effective
way to kill rats. Use a good
bait, put it in a proper place
and service the bait station reg-
ularly. Always keep poisoned
bait away from children and
animals.
Most practical chemicals are
anticoagulants which include
products such as fumarin, pi-
val and warfarin. These chemi-
cals are usually mixed With
grains and can be purchased
ready-mixed.
It is important that plenty
. of bait be available at all times
during a baiting period of 10-
14 days.
Fertilizing Crops
Agricultural producers’ should
take a close look at production
arid management practices as
well as the resources available
before determining their fertili-
zer program for the year ahead.
Crops cary in their plant food
requirements even when grown
on the same type of soil. Coas-
tal Bermuda grass as an exam-
ple, it has a very high produc-
tion,potential, hence a different
food requirement when compar-
ed with other grasses. Its po-
tential cannot be realized un-
der low fertility.
Crop management can also
effect potential yields. Late
planting or a poor stand re-
sulting from bad seed or the
lack of an adequate weed con-
trol program can also cut pro-
duction and reduce the chances
for profit from fertilizer use-
age.
In addition to management
practices, available moisture is
an important yield affecting fac-
tor and should receive careful
attention in developing fertiliza-
tion practices. Where unlimited
amounts of water are avail-
able for irrigation, mois-
ture can be removed as a lim-
iting factor if good water man-
agement practices are followed.
Under limited moisture, good
results are usually obtained
from fertilizer use. Adequately
fertilized crops can utilize very
efficiently limited amounts of
moisture but past exper-
ience along with subsoil mois-
ture prospects can aid in deter-
mining production goals based
on moisture.
The fourth factor affecting
yields is the soil. A reliable soil
test will provide information on
the level of plant food in the
soil and serve as a guide for
selecting the most profitable
rate and ratio of plant foods
needed in the fertilizer. Mere-
ly applying fertilizer does not
insure an adequate supply of
plant food. The composition of
the fertilizer must fit the soil
and crop requirements if maxi-
mum profits are to be realized.
