Committee Says
Kill All Cotton
Growth Early
“Kill all cotton growth as long
as possible before frost and avoid
the boll weevil damage to cotton
the next summer,” was a slogan
adopted by the Ellis County Agri-
cultural Association in its execu-
tive committee meeting last night.
The move was recommended by
County Agent W. M. Love and en-
dorsed unanimously by the comm-
ittee on motion of President Mil-
ton Wakefield. The action also
has the backing of the A&M Col-
lege entomologist.
The Agricultural Club members
will distribute illustrated booklets
urging the move to plow up and
cut up cotton stalks immediately
after picking. Gins and other or-
ganizations that will help in 'the
A Three Days*
Cough is Your
Danger Signal
‘campaign may obtain the booklets
from County Agent Love’s office.
The effectiveness of the action
has been proven in some - of .the
South Texas cotton areas which
have gone to the length of impos-
ing heavy acreage fines on farm-
ers who failed to plow ip their
green cotton stalks by a certain
date. Where this has been done,
, the weevil loss has been diminish-
ing rapidly, leading more and more
counties to take .up the movement.
These experiments have .shewn
that the longer weevils go without
food this fall, the more qf them
that will starve during the winter.
Government tests show that .' few
weevils survive the winter when
stalks are killed a month before
the first killing frost. Weevils that
are thin and undernourished,' at
hibernation time (when the first
. frost comes) stand little chance of
i living through the winter.
Creomulsion relieves promptly be
cause it goes right to the seat of the i
trouble to help loosen and expel
germ laden phlegm, and aid nature !
to soothe and heal raw, tender, in- I
flamed bronchial mucous mem-1
branes. Tell your druggist to sell you |
a bottle of Creomulsion with the un- J
derstanding you must like the way it
quickly allays the cough or you are
to have your money back.

WHAT A W OMAN CARRIES
IN PURSE IS PLENTY
Columbus, O. (U.P.)—It took a
theft to provide the answer to the
mystery of what a woman carries
in her purse.
Mrs. Martha Peck, in reporting
theft of her purse and contents

ing articles:
Sun glasses, a gold necklace and
two gold stickpins, a brooch, two
pairs of earrings, a gold ring, a
compact, a looker, beads, a nail
file, a screwdriver, a blue crystal

Many sufferers relieve nagging backache

The kidneys are Nature’s chief way of
taking the excess acids and waste out of the
blood. They help most people pass about 3
pints a day.

Fire has ‘beexi labeled the silent
partner of inflation by the Nation-
al Fire Protection Association, spon-
sors of Fire Prevention Week, Oc-
tober 6-12, in . cooperation with the
U. S. Department of Agriculture.
The label is an accurate one.
In 1945, a time of widespread
material shortages and world-wide
demand for food, fire destroyed
property valued ar more than $484,-
000,COO in the United States. The
toll or the current year, it is esti-
mated, oy the NFPA, may rise to
$590,000,000—an all-time high.
These shocking figures on prop-
erty destroyed, and needing to be
replaced, point rp the fact that
materials to replace them must be
taken somehow from an already
tight supply. This will tend to in-
flate the cost of such materials as
r re available, the NFPA points
out. The facts will be brought
home more strikingly to farmers
who are forced to repair or re-
place damaged or ruined structures
in today’s market, when construc-
tion cos^s range from thirty to
fifty per cent above those of pre-
war.
Property losses from farm alone
amounted to more than $85 million
last year and the NFPA estimate's
a 22 per cent increase for 1946,
at the current rate of destruction.

the right man. That ‘was 40 years

But the 73-year-oid clergyman has
urged that the congregation find
the “right man” pretty soon, be-
cause he wants to -retire.

World Food
Chronic, Survey Finds
Washington (U.P.) — Two of
every three of the world’s popula-
tion normally are undernourished
and many in ore probably are
doomed to malnutrition in the fu-
ture, the Population Reference Bu-
reau reports.
The bureau was organized as “a
non-profit scientific educational
organization for 'purposes of gath-
ering, eo-relating and distributing
population data.” One of its aims
is to point out what it considers
•to be the need for population limi-
tation as a means of improving
world conditions.
The bureau, in its latest publi-
cation, quoted Secretary of Agri-
culture Clinton P. Anderson as say-
ing: “The present food crisis isn’t
an unusual situation—it’s only un-
usually severe. There’s never
enough food in the world to give
World, led by the United States,

Suspiciously eyeing the Old World,'
the Population Bureau urges that
now is the time for the United
States to conserve its natural re-
Pcpulation experts estimates
100,600,000 people as an ideal num-
ber for the United States. The lat-
est count is 40,000,000 above that
figure.
At the same time, the end of
American resources is beginning to
be seen. Official surveys show that
known usable reserves of 22 essen-
tial minerals have been cut to a 35-
year supply; that we are losing the
equivalent of 200 40-acre farms
every day through erosion that in

Two-thirds of
chronically
any given moment,
the world’s people are
undernourished.”
Evidence of Anderson’s claim is
witnessed daily as starvation
mounts in India and China.
The Population Reference Bu-
reau said that easing of this
chronic food deficiency is supposed
to be accomplished by increasing
che food producing capacity of
large countries like China, Russia
and India.
But it said, “assuming that the
food procuring capacity of such
large parts of the earth . . . could
be doubled, this would be no match
for the increase in population.”
which houlds result is death rates
of these countries are cut to the
levels, of the TJ. S., Great Britain
and Canada.
Malthusian Theory Cited
Although most people think the
present food famine stems from
war destruction, the Department
of Agriculture says “world produc-
tion of all foods in 1945-46 was
about five per cent less than in
pre-war.’- It point out, however,
that allowance foi war-time popu-
lation increases cuts 'the per cap-
ita food production about 12 per-
cent. Thus increases in population
account for about seven per cent
of food deficiencies..
The Population Reference Bu-
reau figures reiterate the 18th cen-
tury Malthusian theory that popu-
lation tends to increase far more
rapidly than its food supply, caus-
ing the weakest to starve.
While intensified, agricultural
methods have greatly increased
food stocks since the days of Mal-
thus, recent death rates have been
reduced and birth rates increased.
During the ten years preceding
Wbrld War II, the population in-
crease equaled the combined totals
of the United States, Great Brit-
ain, and Canada. The bureau fears
that in these statistics are the
roots of today’s disputes.
Population Bulletin, organ of the
bureau, said, “the increase of 563,-
000,000 between 1900 and 1940 may
have set the stage for the present
world food crisis, if not also for
World Wars I and II.”
The bulletin insists that only
through exploitation of natural re-
sources by modern mechanical
methods has the world been able1
to support a tremendously in-
creased population. But it cain-
fcafms the l.pripe for this ex-
ploitation must be paid.
Scientists Point to Price
British scientists Whyte and
Jacks in their boc!<:,, “Vanishing
Lands” state that “the price that
has been and'still must be paid, in
soil and social security, prosperity,
health, contentment and aesthetic
values that go with it, is incalcu-
lable.” <.■
During the past 50 years the New
creased 40 per cent.
Folio Fatalities 5 Per Cent
Jefferson City, Mo., (UP) —
State nealth department records
revealed a mortality rate of five
per cent among infantile paralysis
victims stridden in Missouri dur-
ing the present stage of the dis-
ease. Up to Sept. 1, 538 cases had
been recoded in the - state this
year—a new high.
