There are times when a news-
paper may be hard put to find
out enough Juicy items to fill up
the gaping columns. However,
when the newspaper boys don't
have anything of real Importance,
they pounce on any little thing
they find, and put a splurge head
on the article.
xxxxx
And, of course, there are al-
ways n few things, like this col-
umn. that do not depend on par-
ticular happenings of any kind.
In fact, there was one columnist
who headed hlN article with
"Blowing Off the Foam."
xxxxx
Considering the worthlessncss
of thlii column, the author has
thought at times of leaving It out
altogether, to make room for news
items of more Importance
xxxxx
But, strange to say, there are
those who will admit that they
read Passing Day, and feel ag-
grieved when It is omitted.
xxxxx
One excuse might be given for
it The old world seems to have
a lot of serious things to It; with
accidents and crime, physical and
mental aliments, domestic troubles
and love affairs, and on and on.
xxxxx
Sometimes a person might like
a little handout on the side of
levity; and perhaps for the mo-
ment causing him to dwell less
heavily upon the business of liv-
ing and making a living.
xxxxx
Considering this and other con-
ditions, a person sometimes has to
lake himself and the rest of it
less seriously. Frequently you
will hear the rising generation
condemned for laughing off every-
thing: but maybe that Is about the
only way to keep on living with-
out becoming morose or crazy.

And there is always Friday the

bunch of hard luck to some of us.
This writer resolved to watch out
last Friday, and see if there were
more accidents than usual.
xxxxx
The observation resulted in
what really seemed to be a less
than usual amount of hard luck
happenings. And the way we fig-
ured that out was that, realizing
that bad luck would be around all

TWELVE PAGES
Every ambitious town In out
after more factories, with efforts
made toward building up a steady
payroll. The Seymour Chamber of
Commerce has an industrial com-
mittee. and its members have had
considerable correspondence with
prospective Industrial concerns, on
the subject of locating here, dr
moving plants here. These efforts
have not met with too much suc-
cess; but a lot of success has come
recently and without effort or
prize money on the part of the
chamber of commerce. One success
has been the great expansion of
the telephone company's plant
and office here, which litis been
described in these columns during
the time if this expansion
Another Industry that has quiet-
ly moved in, without fanfare, is
that of Ferrler Bros, cement
plant, The members of that firm
were born and reared in Seymour;
Mack, Otto and Otho Ferrler,
Mack and Otho live here, with
their families; with Otto and fam-
ily at Fort Worth The latter lias
been here for a good part of his
time lately, overseeing the bridge
work on the new farm-to-market
road in the Shady community
west of town. The case of the es-
tablishment of this cement indus-
try Is another Illustration of bow
a town can secure factories simply
by the Investment of local funds
The plant located here could well
have come In on the offer of a
bonus by the community; but the
only thing tlw< Fenders have asked
is for their taxes not to run up j weigh all
too high The new plant employs I goes Into
a good many men; and Its opera-
tion Is of such Importance as may
not be rcall/.ed by many of our
own people
The cement plant Is located on
the southwest quarter of the old
union passenger station block, and
is one block south of the Lubbock
highway. There were three build-
ings on the property when Fer-
rler Bros, bought it, about two
and one-half years ago. One of
them was the place where Stan-
lord Bros, manufactured cement
building blocks. The machinery
for this work was purchased along
with the building, and the firm Is
continuing with the manufactur-
ing Another building is on the
south side, facing Idaho Street,
and this is where Morgan Bowman
formerly operated a building sup-
ply firm. Soon after the property
was bought. Ferrler Bros, put in
a small concrete mixing outfit,
and much of the cement work
done here since that time has been
mixed by this machinery. Recent-
ly an enlargement program was
undertaken; resulting in plant of
such magnitude and importance
that a detailed description will be
of general interest.
In the Bowman building is lo-
cated the offices of the firm, from
which a lot of activity is cleared.
Seymour was established as head-
quarters for the firm, with ac-
tivities radiating out all over the
state. J D. Vincent is office man-
ager, with Mrs Irma Garrison as
secretary. Office space of 10x35
feet has been cut off by a parti-
tion constructed of knotty pine
At the back are two rest rooms,
and an office supply space back
of that. Desks, tables and chairs
equipment; and there is
a long work table on the west
side, used mostly by Mack Ferrier,
insist on ! with his blueprints and his gene-
ral specifications. At the rear of
the building shelving has been
put In for keeping miscellaneous
Items used in bridge work, and
these are sent out to such parts
of the state where contracts are
going.
Eust of the office building Is a
concreted space that was formerly
used for storage of the building
hloelui There was about 8,000
square feet of HiIn; and thai
amount lias recently been Increas-
ed by another a,0(10 square feet
Then on the east side of this space
has been built the new cement
plant, which has a capacity for a
lot ol' roncrete mix per day, A
30-foot tower was built, and a
concreted pit was built under II,
where the trucks drive In for the
loading of the mix. The tower Is
built vu concrete piling of 24
inches in diameter and sunk 20
feet Into the ground
On the east side Is a steel stor-
age bin for the cement, which Is
brought in by huge trucks that
carry It In bulk The bin holds
040 sacks of cement Near the top
of the tower Is the big mixing vat,
and on the north side Is a drag-
line, which picks up the sand and
gravel from big plies of It on the
concrete surface, The boom Is 40
feet high, and the bucket takes up
one-third ol' a yard lit one bite,
On the northeast side of the pro-
perty Is a concrete wall, 40 feet
long. II feet high and I) Inches
thick, which holds In the sand
from spilling Into the alley There
are scales that automatically
of the material as It
the hopper, and shuts
off the supply when there Is
enough A water line supplies the
proper amount of water, In the
same manner, Then the truck
backs Into the pit, and is loaded
with the mixture The truck car-
ries the mixing machine, and the
sand, gravel cement and water Is
thoroughly mixed on the wuy to
the Job.
At the present time, Ferrler
Bros, has the contract for surfac-
ing a farm-to-market road In the
west part of the county. This road
extends west from the Abilene
highway, at a point six miles
southwest of town, About four
miles was previously constructed,
with about that much more need-
ed now to reach the Knox County
line, It will connect there with
farm roads in Knox County Thus
far the drainage structures have
been going in, and this part of
the work will soon be completed,
For instance, the big concrete
plant processed HO cubic yards of
concrete Tuesday, which was
trucked out and placed in the
forms. It is an interesting sight to
see that amount of bridge work
under construction.
On the north side of the Ferrler
property is a sheet Iron building
that formerly was used by Fran-
cis Bros, This building Is now
used for a work shop. Forms are
sawed out there, together with re-
pair work on the equipment, and
with construction of other kind
used by the bridge crews.
The owners feel that there will
be a fairly steady demand in this
territory for the products of this
plant. The mixed cement can be
used for building of different
kinds fh Seymour and Baylor
County; and with the mixture
carried to points in nearby coun-
ties It is practical to truck the
mixed concrete out for a distance
of as much as 40 miles

BLOOD IANK IS
REPLKNiSHID
Superintendent Clay Ellin of the
Baylor County Hoapital report* a
good day last Friday, when people
had been asked to donate blood
for the Wadley Blook Bank of
Dallas. The following contributed
a pint of blood each, of varloua
types; J. E. Cumble, Louts Sny-
der, Bobby Robertson, Maryon
Hyndor, David Griffin, Glen Plum-
mer, Miss Nelda Ferrler, Mrs
W L Muff, Jim Richmond, James
Snyder, Murrcll Cope, W I, Huff,
Mrs Frank Slmalchl. Clay Ellis,
Burrell Lee Jr., Fred Hatter, Rob-
ert Ames, J. R. Hcnrlcks und
Lowell Cure.
Supt Kills states that the blood
donated here bus been sent to the
bunk In Dullas, for cheeking on
as may be needed. The system
works like this The hank sends
111 pints of blood to the hospital
here, consisting of four different
types, This Is kept on refrigera-
tion, to he used us needed At the
cud of one week, the blood Is re-
turned to Dullfis, with a like
amount of new blood sent here,
with the exchange being mode
each Wednesday, The umount
picked up here will be used In
Dallas hospitals until It Is out of
date; and 11 Is good for 21 days
from the time It was find drawn.
Unfortunately, t h e donations
last Friday will not supply the
demand permanently. Whenever
blood ir< used at the hospital for
trine fusions, the amount must be
replaced with the bank This Is
taken care of usually by requiring
members of the putlent's family to
become responsible for replacing
the blood that was used, When-
ever Ibis cannot be done, then the
patient Is charged $30 per pint for
the amount of blood thut wti.» used.
This mny seem high, but Mr, Ellis
says the charge by Dallas hospi-
tal# Is $411 per pint.
Since the blood donations of
lust Friday, Mr. Ellis states that
there were some prospective don-
ors who were unable to conic In
for the appointment, and these are
still willing to part with u pint of
blood Which will still be needed,
in order to replace the amount
that is normally used at the hos-
pital. And so. each Tuesday, fsom
11:00 to 5:00 has been designated
us the time for any who will do-
nate blood to come In and submit
to the bleeding, And, as can be
seen from the price ut which It Is
quoted, everyone who makes u
blood donation Is performing a
very Important service to the
health and welfare of the com-
munity.

Agent Reports
Insect Damage
To Wheat Crop
Insects are causing severe dam-
ago to wheat, Roy McClung. Coun-
ty Agent reported this week. Both
green bugs and winter grain mites
arc causing considerable damage
to the grain, the agent stated.
The wheat Is also in need of
moisture, but In most fields there
Is gootl moisture after digging
down 3 or 4 Inches It Is believed
that the weather is not dry enough
to Im< killing the wheat buck to
the ground. But with the usslst-
uiiec of dry weather and hard
freezes the Insects are really deal-
ing the grain it heavy blow
The county agent stated that the
Fxtemdon Entomologist recom-
mend control measures when the
average number of green bugs
reach 100 per linear foot at any
time before the foot stage. In
young wheat with not much
growth populations of 25 to 50
green bugs per foot may warrant
treatment,
, The winter out mites or spider
niltcs are real small tlark colored
Insects with orange colored legs,
They appear in large numbers and
damage the outs by sucking the
juices from the plant,. They hide
during the doy around the base of
the plant or In cracks In the
ground and feed primarily ut
night,
According to Dr, II L. Chuda,
Entomologist located at the Den-
ton Experiment Station, who has
been fining research on these In-
sects, the following Information
has been obtained, There are two
generations of the winter grain
mite The first generation develops
In the fall of the year from eggs
thut have uestlvuted during the
summer and the second generation
develops In the spring from eggs
that were deposited In the winter
by the first generation of adult
mites, Maximum population usu-
ally occurs around February I for
the first generation and April 1
for the second generation. The
second generation of mites lay
eggs thut aestlvate (rest) during
the summer months.
The average number of days for
the life cycle of the mite is as
follows; egg, 25 days, larval stage,
12 duys, nymphal stage, 231 •• days,
adult stage, 37days, The aver-
age total time for egglaylng to
death of the adult Is Oil days.
Temperature ami moisture ore
probably the most Important fac-
tors influencing mite development
und their ubundunce. Cold weath-
er favors their development. Ac-
cording to Dr Chada egg laying
between 50 to till do-
Tcmperatures ranging
05 degrees F. are op-
hatching and the ac-
the adult mite tire
groutest between 40 to 70 degrees.
When the temperature drops be-
low 40 degrees, or goes above 75
degrees the mites stop feeding and
descend to the ground and burrow
into the soil
McClung stated that it is evi-
dent from the above information
thut conditions for the Insects de-
velopment have been ideal most
of this winter. The agent advises
everyone to check their fields to
determine the extent of damage
to their wheat He cautions thut
the tiny mites sometimes ure real
difficult to see. Early in the
morning or late in the evening is
the best time to check for the in-
sects
If you decide to apply control
measure the agent says 1 to 21
pints of paruthion per acre will
do a good job of controlling both |
insects He warned, however, that:
parathion should be applied by I
plane only. Anyone desiring to |
apply insecticides with ground
equipment can use Malathion I to
2 pints per acre
