Assault Charges
Filed at Ganado
EDNA 34 YEARS AGO—This is a downtown street scene of Edna taken during World War I. It is
reproduced from a postcard owned by Mrs. Bessie Mercer and Mrs. C. II. Gregory, sisters. The year
was 1918. Note the bareness of the courthouse yard and the horses and buggies and wagons. At the
right is the old Fulres Drug building, the site of which is now occupied by the First National Bank.
The Jackson County State Bank is across the street. There apparently was a vacant corner where
the present Falres Drug Co. is located.-
Tilo Estrado 32, and Shev, Fige-
rova, 26, both of Ganado, are out
on $500 bond each on assualt with
intent to murder charges following^
an escapade at Estrada’s tavern in
Ganado last Friday. Charges were
filed in Judge Joe Cherry’s court.
Judge Cherry said witnesses told
him Estrada refused to sell Figero-
va a second bottle of beer and an
argument and scuffle ensiled. Estra-
da, they said, got out his -shot gun
and fired it at Figerova, a few of
the pellets striking IJigerova’s
shoe and cutting the laces, but not
injuring him. Figerova 'then Is
said to have brought a pistol into
play, striking Estrada over the
head with such force the pistol was

VFW Post Meets at
Armory Tuesday
VFW post No. 6010 will hold Its
regular meeting Tuesday, May „13,
at 8 p. m. at the Armory. All mem-
bers are urged to attend.
Lindsay Broiler Farm n{ Hnllettcs-
vllle, addressed the Edna Develop-
ment Board on Thursday nlglit. His
subject was “Diversification In Lnva-
ca County.”
In liegluning his talk Mr. Kahanek
stated that he first wanted to talk
abeut tlie chicken industry In Lava-
ca County, because In the past two
years Lavaca County has come up
from fifth place In the chicken In-
dustry In the state to first place.
' When 7... r><*> Invited me over here
he ye to tell yotl about nnr.
broiler fuftt). Mr, Lindsay and l‘
started our broiler farm three years
ago. I might mention that before
going Into this kind of busiuess you
have to make sure that you have a
market, because when the birds
are ready to go, you have to have a
market for them. Fortunately for
us, and other chicken producers In
this area, Weingarten has a poultry
packing plant In Hallettsvllle which
handles 2,000,000 dressed chickens
yearly. They buy poultry not only
in Lavaca County but from the sur-
roundiug counties as well.
“We started with one building
20'x340', which took care of 10,000
birds. Last year we built nnother
buildlng 34' x 300', which takes care
of another 12,000 birds, so that we
turn out 22,000 broilers every 10 to
12 weeks, or 88,000 yearly. It takes
3|4 sq. feet of space per bird in the
winter time and 1 sq. foot per bird
in the summer months. The type
of houses we have for our chickens
cost 90c to $1.00 per sq. foot, for
construction. It costs 27c per pound
to produce a broiler to 12 weeks old.
Any chicken up to 3 pouuds is class-
ed as a broiler. Often our chicks
reach 3 pounds In weight in 10 to
11 weeks,
‘We have one man who takes care
of the chickens. When we started
our operation, we fed by hand and
it took our man all day to feed and
water the chickens; that was when
we were producing 10,000 chickens.
When we built our second building
we installed mechanical feeding and
watering equipment. Today, one man
takes care of 22,000 chickens in
about four hours, which meuns Unit
with the new equipment our produe-
iton cost, so far as man-power Is
concerned, has not been Increased.
“Weingarten also buys eggs on
grade. Just a few years ago, tlio
farmers of Lavaca County were not

next Tuesday, May 13, at 7:30 nt
the Legion Hall
they wish to develop the area along
I lie street but can’t because anoth-
er land owner, James Garner, has
some of It under fence. Garner
was present and presented abstracts
to show what he interpreted to be
Ills legal right to occupy a part of
(lie street.
“If the city doesn't grant our
petition to open the street, we will
take the case to court,” Nowlin said.
•‘It’s a city street, the maps show
it, the deeds show it und your city .
attorney lias written n letter to you
Informing you It Is a street, and we
want it opened all the way.”
W. S. McCormick, who at one
time was interested In the property
along tlie street, said James Gar-
ner anil his mother bought the
property In good faith, but that It
wus a city street.
Hersli reminded the council the
matter had been brought up before
aud no action had been taken. “We
want to Improve property along the
street. It’s time the city acted la
its own behalf,” he said.
McCormick explained that at
one time property owners In the
ureu made a deed to keep the land
in acreage und not streets to
keep the taxes down. “It always
has been a street, however," he stat-
ed.
Hersh also reminded the council
that the water department In 1941
put u water line down the street,
indicating by this uctlon It was a
city street. Nowlin showed a deed
where County Judge J. W. Bagby
many years ago set aside the addi-
tion and set'tip'the .Ki tV* .here-

Tlie Hershs also renewisl their
request for the opening of Rowlett
Street in the custern portion of

they hud a small truct of land
there they can not reach by street
and tliut city rnups show Rowlett
Street running to the property.
“We wunt to develop It,” they said.
They suld Judge S. G. Sample
bus fenced property In the vicinity

tlielr property.
Aldermifn Bill Mercer promised
the group the council will give them
a definite answer by May 15. Mr.
Nowlin and bis group then agreed
to withhold any court action until
they hear from the city.
Charlie Wayne Boles appeared
before the council to request the
city to fill in an ever-widening
ditch alongside his Edna Hatchery
with tile as u safety measure and
to prevent the caving in of the
street. He said the drainage com-
mission would pay hulf the cost of
the tile aud thut the county would
