Shreveport Journal.
Leasing by both major com-
panies and independent over a
wide area in three East Texas
border counties—Harrison,
Panola and Shelby—in addi-
tion to the continued activity
in Cass and Illarion, was re-
ported this week.
The play, believed to have
been given lire by tbe Rodessa
oil strike and which is growing
into one of the most active
campaigns these areas have
witnessed, should result in a
number of Trinity tests being
drilled in the near future.
Around Carthage in Panola
county, the Son Oil Co. this
week is reported to have start-
ed drilling a series of 500-foot
core holes, while to the east
of Carthage, the Shell Petro-
leum Co. is said to be buying
acreage and has seismograph
crew “shooting” the area.
In the vicinity of DeBerry,
also in Panola county, the
Texas Co. and Magnolia Petro-
leum Co., along with the Sun.
are reported taking acreage.
Just north of the Shelby coun-
ty line, near the village of
Gary, the Humble haa bought
scattered acreage. Much of the
Shelby county activity has cen-
tered around Timpson where
the Humble and Sun have bAn
very active.
Hightower and Weeks, East
Texas operators, who for some
time have been assembling a
block of 40,000 acres around
Elysian Springs, Harrison
county, are reported to have
about 30,000 acres under lease
to date. Near Jonesville,
northwest of the Waskom gas
field, Nat Ash, et al„ are re-
ported to be assembling - a
block of 0,500 acres on which
they plan an early teat.
L. L. Blomgren, et al.’s, Tay-
lor No. 1, Payne survey, about
14 miles northeast of liar-
shall, which caused a rush for
leases after a show of oil was
reported at 5,852 feet, was
still shut down Thursday for
water. Operators plan to ran
casing immediately after a
line to a new water supply
haa been laid.
Drilling was scheduled to
be resumed late this week on
I. Hanover, et al.’a, Buchanan
No. 1, -W. M. Mcllvan survey
of Harrison county, several
miles north of Hallsvtile. The
well has been shot down for
several months at 3.762 feet,
and it is now planned to carry
the test on to 6,000 feet.

College Station, Tex., Aug.
31.—A special release from
Washington, D. C., outlines
the amendments to the Agri-
cultural Adjustment Act which
have met the approval of both
houses of Congress and have
the signature of President
Roosevelt.
The amendments have two
major purposes. One is to give
the Secretary of Agriculture
added powers in carrying out
the farm program and the oth
er is to erect bulwarks around
the program against the time
when provisions of the Act
will have to meet the crucial
test in the Supreme Court.
"The new amendments,
Secretary Wallace comment-
ed, “will permit increased ‘ad-
justment’ of production by per-
mitting benefit payments for
increased production.” Wal-
lace was careful to point-out
that there is little likelihood
of this provision being put to
use except in cases of grave
emergency.
On the most controversial
point, the section barring suits
by processors to recover pro-
cessing taxes in event the
levies are held unconstitution-
al, a compromise was reached.
Processors can sue for recov-
ery, but only after they have
submitted their claims to the
commissioner of internal reve-
nne. However, the processors
must show they have not pass-
ed the taxes along.
The amendments also per-
mit the Secretary of Agricul-
ture to draft marketing agree-
ments with the consent of the
majority of producers or pro-
cessors for the following: milk,
fruits, tobacco, vegetables, soy
beans, walnuts and naval
stores.
The recent act of Congress
also extends the Bankhead cot-
ton control and Kerr-Smith to-
bacco control act and author-
izes a similar program for no
tatoes. ft also permits start r'r
the “ever normal” granary
plan under which the Govern-
ment could make loans to pro-
ducers to induce them to hold
surplus crops on farms.
Other provisos in the
amendments authorize use of
30 per cent of customs
eeipts to finance export of crop
surpluses, except cotton, under
the export debenture plan;
and authorize use of part of
the 34,000,000,000 works fund
to boy up sub-marginal farm
land.

Gainesville, Tex., Sept. 2.
(UP)—Old timers who came
here last week to attend the
Cooke County Fair and Pre-
Centennial Exposition, easily
recognized Gainesville as the
old cow-town of the "70b.
An outstanding feature of
the fair was a complete repro-
duction of the old courthouse
square. The fair opened Wed
trio to Austin and Dallas.

The reproduction of the
square was based on pictures
taken in 1870. W. O. Davis,
88. W. C. Brown, 95, and oth-
er pioneers who remember
how the city looked at that
time, also helped with the
designing of the square.
Three log cabins, one of
them 125 years old. were
taken from their original sites
in the cross timbers section of
the county, and brought here
to serve as a post office, store
and war.
More than 10,000 shingles
were rived with an old hand
frow, and fair officials boast
that not a stick of store-bought
lumber is used in reconstruct-
ing the square.
A 16-foot well was dug in
the center of the square and
watering troughs were fash-
ioned from logs. The interior
of the courthouse is furnished
with split chairs and benches.
To add to thp pioneer atmos-
phere. fair officials seenred a
yoke of oxen, to draw a cover-
ed waeon. and manv women
of the town designed old fash-
ioned costumes to wear.

FflHFILL GARDENS
College Station, Tex., Aug.
31.—Most of the success of the
fail garden depends on pre-
paring .the soil correctly, ac-
cording to J. F. Rosborough,
Extension horticulturist.
“All weeds and vegetation
must be removed before plant-
ing,” Rosborongh said, “or the
soil will dry out quickly and
possibly carry diseases.”
The Extension horticulturist
recommended a heavy applica-
tion of summer manure before
plowing is started. He ex-
plained that summer manure,
which has no acids or burning
ingredients, is used to increase
the water holding capacity and
to prevent the soil from be-
coming hard and crusted fol-
lowing the fall rains.
He recommended that
aeh, and cabbage which will
withstand cold weather. Bush
beans will grow unless the
weather turns too cold.”
He went on to say that in
many gardens, hardy Vege-
tables such as pepper, egg
plant, okra and tomatoes,
which have survived tbe sum-
mer heat and are ready to pro-
duce a fall crop, should be
fertilized. In sandy soils, the
addition of one to two table-
spoonfuls per plant of 6-12-6
commercial feitilier will be
beneficial.
“Wise gardeners do not
stake all in a fall garden by
just planting a turnip patch,”
he said, “but they plant other
vegetables such as Swiss chard,
tender green, louse proof tur-
nips and other leafy things of
this type along with the old
stand.
“Before cold weather sets
in, pumpkins, cushaws, sum-
mer squashes, and other vege-
