Hticks may be used); paper of pins;
tape measure; yard stick; scissors,
beeswax; and a whisk broom. Heavy
gloves or a pad of leather may be
worn to protect the hands. Gauze
masks or large handkerchiefs may
be worn to cover the nose and
mouth if needed. Ice pick handles
with the picks rernoved are some-
times useful in pushing roll needles.
Make the tick carefully: A good
ijrade of ticking is important for
á mattress, because it helps to
keep the cotton in place. Likewise,
it keeps the mattress firm and in
(?ood shape. Dust does not sift
through a good grade of ticking
as readily as through a more loose
ly woven material. It is also more
durable.
Accurate measurements are
necessary, and the material must
be cut straight and true.
All stitching should be firm and
put in with a strong thread, since
there will be considerable strain on
the seams.
There are various patterns which
can be used in making good mat-
tress ticks. The following method
is outlined here because it has
proven satisfactory under numer
ous conditions. It enables an ama-
teur to paek the cotton in the tick
uniformly even under the least de
sertablo conditions.
Beds vary in sise, and the mat-
tress should be made to fit the
Individual bed. A rough guide can
be had by measuring the bed (in-
side measurement) and adding to
the results one and one-half inches
for every foot in width. This allows
for the roll. The following measure-
ments are given for a mattres for
a double bad 54 inches wide and 74
inches long:
Take 10 yards of ticking 82
inches wide, and cut two 82 inch
lengths. Tear or cut a 5-inch strip
from the remaining material. Then
cut two more 82-inch lengths.
Sew one piece 82 inches wide and
one piece 27 inches wide together
lengthwise, keeping the raw edge
in the center. Stitch the two re-
maining strips together in the same
way. This will make the top and
bottom of the tick, each measuring

"letting George do it" is a lot of
baloney as far Old Man Progress
is concerned. It -nyone has any
suggestion* for the junior chamber
of commerce, comment that is
favorable or unfavorable, please let
me hear from you. At least let us
know if we're headed in the right
or wrong direction.
Mr. Farmer, business continually
changes, doesn't it? Upsets are
nothing new these days. One kind
of private business is continually
displacing another. The garage,
filling station and tourist camp
have replaced the blacksmith shop,
wagon yard and the livery stables,
and the same forces unbalanced the
bus'ness of thousands of farmers
wbj grew grain and hay and bred
horses and mules.
Let's reason a little on food. Up
until 1920 the farmer had a 55 cent
Bhare in the consumer's food dollar,
until 1929 he had 40 cents in that
dollar and until 1938 only 39 cents.
My mind's eye sees the farmer as
the world and BUSINESS as the
pants he's wearing. Now then, what
would happen if you left for town
wearing the pants inside out. Well,
you're a big fellow and kinda hard
to get to, so those who notice it can
holler their heads off without you
hearing their warnings. The rule
to follow is look in the mirror oc-
cassionally and see if everything is
O.K.
I was a guest at a meeting of the
Central Texas Livestock As-
sociation in Hearne last night, and
I want to say those fellows really
have something. The principal of
their organisation is to further the
interest of members and they are
going forward a step at a time.
To break up cattle stealing is first
on their docket and in the first six
months they were organised they
tracked down and convicted many
a cow thief. Only two or three
Burleson county men belong to the
association. It would really be worth
while for others to investigate.
Garwood Gerdes or Marvin Porter
can give you all the information
you desire.
Note to Mrs. Monroe Berndt:
The assistant boss of your house-
hold won the $2.50 attendance
award at the junior chamber of
commerce meeting Monday night
in case he didn't tell you.
