THE BONHAM (Texas) HERALD, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1938
MARKET FOR PECANS
FURNISHED BY U.
Albany Georgia, October 26, 1038
To all county agents located in the
improved pecan producing territory:
Will you please give the following
information wide publicity t o the
growers of improved varieties of pe-
cans in your county?
Yesterday, October 25th, the Sec-
retary of Agriculture of the United
States approved and signed the Pe-
can Export and Diversion Agree-
ment. This agreement between the
Secretary of Agriculture and the Pe-
can Stabilization Association, a grow-
er controlled organization set up un-
der the laws of Alabama, for the ex-
press purpose of carrying out the
provisions of this program.
The program just announced con-
templates the purchase, by the Pecan
Stabili^jon Association, of up to
four mPfron pounds of improved va-
rieties of pecans from growers or
associations of growers during the
harvesting season, at prices approved
by the Secretary. Prices at which
the Association will buy pecans
graded for quality and size are as
follows:
U. S. No. 1 U. S. No. 2
Extra large and up ...... 12.30c 10.30c
Large ............. 10.80c 8.80c
Medium .............................. 8.80c 7.80c
Ungraded or orchard-run pecans
will also be purchased and the sched-
ule of prices will be announced in
the next few days.
The Pecan Stabilization Associa-
tion is adequately financed through
the Commodity Credit Corporation,
and all purchases will be for cash at
the time of purchase.
Pecans purchased by the Pecan
Stabilization Association under this
program will be disposed of in ex-
port to countries other than Canada
or be diverted to such by-products as
the Secretary shall approve. By tak-
ing these pecans definitely and for-
ever out of the channels of domestic
trade during the fall seaason, the
pressure on the domestic markets
will be relieved to the point where
higher prices may be obtained.
In order that growers of improved
varieties of pecans throughout the
entire producing territory may have
equal opportunity, receiving stations
will be established ■ in all centers of
heavy production. Existing ware-
houses or cold storage plants will be
selected for these receiving stations,
where a government inspector will ;
be available to inspect all lots of-
fered for sale and classify each for
quality and side.
It is thought that first locations
for receiving stations will be as fol-
lows: Savannah, Augusta, Macon,
Albany, Columbus, Dawson, Cairo,
Baconton, and Cordele, Georgia; Eu-
faula, Montgomery, Dothan and
Mobile, Alabama; Shreveport and
Lafayette, Louisiana; iFort Worth,
Texas; Comanche, Oklahoma; Gulf-
port and Natchez. Mississippi; Flor-
ence, South Carolina; Gainesville,
Florida. Arrangements are being
pushed with all possible speed to get
these stations into actual operation
at the earliest possible moment.
The object of the entire program
is to provide all growers in all sec-
tions the opportunity to sell theiir pe-
cans for at least the above named
prices not only to day but during the
entire season. On account of an as-
sured price, it will not be necessary j
for growers to accept the first offer |
made for their pecans. It is hoped,
that all pecan growers will take full
advantage of the opportunity afford-
ed them under this program and
made sure when they do sell their
pecans that they receive at least the
above named prices.
The Pecan Stabilization Associa-
tion is charged with the responsibil-
ity of carrying out the provisions of
this program, and we ask your un-
stinted cooperation in giving this in-
formation to every pecan grower in
your county.

The comptroller’s department at
Austin has been asked for a ruling
in "the matter of payment of poll
tax receipts. The ruling is that a
person may pay his or her poll tax
receipt without paying other taxes,
but if other taxes are paid, this poll
tax has bot to be paid, also.
The statement is made that since
Governor Nominee, W. Lee O’Daniel
has declared against the poll tax
many have refused to pay same. The
article from which this is taken also
gives the following:
“The poll tax supports a number
of desirable governmental functions.
Of each $1.75 poll, the county re-
ceives 25 cents, the state permanent
school fund receives $1,00, and the
state general fund gets 50 cents.”
So you not only see that the poll
taxes should be paid, but you also
learn who gets the money.
Stetson Hallum is no better.
Rosa Lea and Fay Slagle were
callers on the writer, Saturday eve.

Jessie Airie is convalescing nicely

Mrs. Tom Green and daughter
were in Leonard, Thursday, on busi-

Mrs. Abe Humphrey visited Mrs
Emma Rushing and Pearl Harshaw
Sunday.
Well, folks, Friday will be Arm-
istice, the day millions of hearts
were made happy. So let’s don’t
r or get the boys on that day who
fought for us. Think of the thous-
ands on a sick bed today who would
cherish a bouquet, a wire, a letter or
any token of love to let them know
we have not forgotten them after
twenty years. Let’s make their re-
maining days happy, for there are
some that will not be with us the
next Armistice Day. I hope every-
one will heed this and make some
soldier happy.
In Memory of the Dead Soldiers
Think of the soldier who went
over sea. He went that all the
people be free. He fought a fight so
brave and fine. That he was killed
on the firing line.
He kissed mother, wife, and all
goodbye, and said I’ll see you in the
sweet by and by. , But be never re-
turned to the states it did seem but
he boarded a ship for a higher plane.
And now that mother has heart-
aches and grief. She is waiting to
meet him. then all will be peace. She
used to hold him upon her knee, and
rain kisses upon him so free. But
he went over there not knowing his
fate.
So now he is waiting at the Gold-
en Gate. He was some mother’s son,
boys, he has gone from her now. If
you were a comrade go to her some
how. Give her a kiss and a pat fo.r
him, too. Tell her that you love her,
he would want you to.
But he is gone, his memory lingers
on. He is waiting for you comrade
in the great beyond. To the Gold
Star Mother whose heart is like lead.
Will some day be reunited with her
son that is dead. He is waiting and
planning to him there’s no end just
waiting for his mothers ship to come
in. Then all will be peace and joy
as before. Just across the sea on the
other shore.

similar position here in the First
Christian church, finally refusing to
take the job any longer.
Mr. and Mrs. J. B. May of Savoy
were in Bonham Wednesday morn-

was a banker in Savoy. He is also
somewhat of a farmer, and some
little time back he took up “the art
preservative,” meaning he learned to
set type. He admits he knows the
“boxes” in a print shop. We bet he
knows a note case better than he
knows a type case. Mrs. May is edi-
tor of the Savoy Star.
