Milton Usry’s Service Clean-
ers is stretching out—two build-
ings’ worth. With Carl Little
as contractor, a brick structure
connecting the present Service
Cleaners building and the Nuss
building is nearing completion.,
and on April 1 the Nuss build-
ing is due to be vacated and
added to the Usry shop prop-
erties. According to present
plans, the annex now under-
going construction will be used
as the plant’s boiler room, and
the Nuss addition will be the
cleaning room. Considerable
new cleaning equipment is un-
der order for the enlarged Mil-
ton Usry enterprise.

east end service station.
Castloo’s Furniture Stores is
said with a little more accent
on the plural “s” now. Added
to the Mineola and Pittsburg
locations is a Grand Saline
link, Tom Castloo, owner, an-
nounces. The new store is the
former Gautier Furniture Com-
pany, one of Van Zandt’s lar-
gest retail businesses. The G.
S. deal was completed Monday.
L. J. James of Pittsburg will be
the manager.
Van Gridders Slowed
By Uniform Shortage
Spring came to Wesley Lott’s
Magnolia Service Station last
week, with Magnolia painters
spreading the good cheer. The
Inman’s probably has e. pajn^ers were a little too gen-
edge
on most Mineola busi-
nesses on one service: curb
service marriages. Rev. R. H.
Massey, New Hope minster, who
doubles as an Inman employee,
has performed two such cer-
erous writh their wares around
the front glass, and nothing
less than razor blades and el-
bow grease would erase the
splatter, swears Bedford Par-
ker, a Lott employee.

More than 100 times as many
Austrian winter peas were ob-
tained by Texas farmers thru
the AAA conservation mater-
ials program in 1945 than in
1940, the first year of the pro-
yram’s operation.
This tremendous increase—
from 58,925 pounds in 1940 to
6,035,899 pounds in 1945—was
disclosed this week in a report
to the State ACA Committee.
Under the conservation mater-
ials program farmers can ob-
tain soil-building seed and ma-
terials with a large part of the
cost being charged against the
amounts they earn in the
PMA’s soil-building program.
Vetch seed—hairy, Willamette
and common—obtained through
the program also showed a
great increase over 1941, the
first year it was offered, climb-
ing from 410,282 in that year
to 1,472,150 pounds in 1945
| Shortage of seed last year ham-
I pered the program, but it was
pointed out that these figures
do not take into consideration
the hundreds of thousands of
pounds of seed harvested in the
state and distributed locally by
growers.
Another fast comer in the
winter legume field is melilotus
indica, or yellow blooming
sweet clover. In 1942, 124,129
pounds were issued while in
1945, 1,338,170 pounds were is-
sued. Hubam clover seed issued
went from 32,189 pounds in
1942 to 984,720 pounds in 1945.

UNDERGOING REPAIRS
Repairs on The Monitor’s
building are about half com-
pleted. Sometime within the
next few days a new front will
be added and office spaces
built. Until the job is com-
pleted the staff will be work-
ing under a handicap.
-o-
Use potatoes, oatmeal and
buckwheat cakes instead of
bread to help avoid a world
famine.
Five hundred million people
face famine due to war exhaus-
tion and drought.
