REACH HIGH
Haven’t you often wonder-
ed how the giant redwoods of
California draw water to their
foliage, often more than 300
feet in the air?
"It's not done through pres-
sure from the roots,” writes
Robert Collier. "It’s done by
puli from above. All through
nature the same law will be
found—then the means which
need itself provides.”
Ur. Collier finds inspiration
for us in the pulling power of
the redwoods; "Use what you
hare to provide the vacuum,
then draw upon the necessary-
elements to fill it. Reach up
with your stalk, spread out
your branches, provide the
‘pull’ and you can leave to
your roots the search for nec-
essary nourishment. If you
have reached high enough, if
you have made your magnet
strong enough, you can draw
yourself whatever elements
you need, no matter if they be
at the end3 of the earth.”
To grow taller reach higher!
—The Silver Lining.

FOOD STAMP PLAN
EXPANDING IN TEXAS
College Station.—As flexi-
ble as an accordian, the food
stamp plan is being expanded
rapidly in Texas so that al-
ready this method of surplus
commodity distribution is in
operation in 14 Texas counties
although the program is bare-
ly over a year old.
Counties where the plan is
operating are Wichita Falls,
Harris, Travis. McLennan, El
Paso, Childress, Taylor, East-
land, Dallas, Tarrant, Hale,
Lubbock, and Wilbarger. In
addition, Hidalgo and Gregg
counties are to begin opera-
tion within a few weeks, ac-
cording to regional officials of
the Surplus Marketing Admin-
istration.
Agricultural commodities
and products which have been
designated as surplus foods by
the Secretary of ’Agriculture
and may be exchanged for
bine food order stamps in
Texas and 10 other Southern
states until further announce-
ment of the Secretary are as
follows: butter, raisins, rice,
pork lard, pork, com meal,
eggs, dried prunes, hominy
grits, wheat and whole wheat
flour, fresh oranges, cabbage,
irish potatoes, tomatoes, ap-
ples, pears, and dry beans.
All fresh cut3, including
chilled, frozen, pickled, salted,
cured or smoked pork may be
secured with blue food order
stamps. However, cooked pork
or pork packed in metai or
glass containers are not in-
cluded in the designation.
Under the food stamp plan
surplus agricultural commodi-
ties are purchased through
the regular channels of trade
in any eligible retail store.
The growing popularity of
cottons in the high style field
makes cotton gift articles par-
ticularly appropriate for
Christmas gifts this year.
Stores are ready with a wide
variety of cotton wearing ap-
parel, as well as cotton house-
hold articles suitable as gifts
for the entire family.

OVER THE 100,000 MARK
College Station.—Members
of more than 100,000 Texas
farm families are sleeping on
new mattresses this fall!
Late in October 100,286
new cotton mattresses had
been made in the state under
the Department of Agricul-
ture’s program for aiding iow-
ineorae farm families and
reducing the cotton surplus.
This figure was compiled in
the office of Mildred Horton,
vice director and state home
demonstration agent of the A.
and M. College Extension
Service.
The cooperative program
provides that educational
work and supervision of mat-
tress making centers shall be
furnished by the Extension
Service, cotton and ticking
shall be made available by the
Surplus Marketing Adminis-
tration. and certification of
eligible families shall be the
responsibility of connty agri-
cultural conservation commit-
tees of the Triple-A.
To date centers have been
set up in 2,664 Texas commu-
nities, and mattresses are be-
ing made in ISO counties. Miss
Horton reported. Voluntary
leaders who supervise mattress
making in the centers number
37,290—24,869 of them wom-
en and 12,431 men.
More than a million farm
families in the Southern
States will receive mattresses
under the 1940 demonstration
program, according to a re-
port received by Miss Horton
from Mrs. Ola Powell Mal-
colm, Extension field agent in
charge of home demonstration
work in the Southern area.
Nearly 600,000 mattresses
had been made in 17 states
late In September.

new day; the invisible choir of birds; the glamour of

ing; the splendor of a sunset; the bright heraldry of i
colored leaves in November on a hillside; the glad sur-
prise of the sight of an old friend's face; and for the i
sweetness of rest well earned in a sheltered circle of '
loved ones at the end of day.
