When you work or when you
play, an ice-cold bottle of Coca-Cola
has everything it takes to refresh you.
You drink it and it satisfies completely
with a happy after-sense of refresh-
ment. Thirst asks nothing more.

receiving end nf notes. Mary Jo and
B< mice seem to be racing one an.

important — or do you just enjoy
looking at it all of the tune?

EXAS farmers and ranchers received
last year from oil men the huge sum
of $132,478,000 for leases and royalties as their
share in this partnership.
All but seven of Texas' 254 counties now
share in this cash return from leases and production on
more than 50,000,000 acres of Texas land.
Then, too, the Texas farmers and ranch-
ers sell to oil workers and their families more than $60,-
000.000 worth of farm and livestock products each year.
Thus the farmers and ranchers of our
state receive nearly 200 million dollars a year as their
share of oil's total expenditure of 750 million dollars
annually in Texas. These 200 million dollars in turn flow
into every channel of Texas trade.
