Dairy Industry 1s
Important to East Texas
From Saturday’s Daily
Lumber Production Decline*
Longview, Nov. 12.—Elmore
B. Torn, agricultural manager
of the East Texas Chamber of
Commerce, today called on
East Texans to give serious
thought and thoughtful coop*
oration in observance of Na-
tional Milk Week of November
14 to 20.
Stating that Eaat Texas has a
great stake in the dairy indus-
try , and that the sale of milk
by its farmers has paid sub-
stantial dividends on this prac-
tice of diversified farming en-
deavor, Torn said, “We will
■come to appreciate in the fu-
ture even more than we have
in the past the value of milk as
a stabilizing influence in both
our economic and social health
and welfare.
‘Since health of growing
--children is so dependent on
milk, not disregarding its bene-
ficial effect on grown ups,
therefore, where the family
pocketbook and likes justify
it, per capits consumption
should become one quart per
day for each child and one
pint per day for each adult.
“During National Milk
Week let service clubs and
civic organizations which
graciously lend help to those
m unfortunate circumstances
consider including in their
budgets or projects s greater
■ and wider distribution of milk
‘■to those in need, particularly
to dependent youngsters."
Mr. and Mrs. Harry Mag-
ness are the happy parents of
a baby daughter, the young
lady arriving Friday at the
Timpson Hospital and Clinic.
Mother and baby are doing
nicely.
