Leasing Hunting
Rights Profitable
By PAUL HERSCHLER I means, a boost to all our econ-
Coiinty Agricultural Agent omy.
The fall season brings to John Jackson brought out
mind many activities. Foot- the fact that if you lease your
ball takes up the sports page place for hunting privileges,
replacing the baseball news, you will need a license. Jack-
limiting and fishing replaces j son said 43 landowners of Hop-
the haymaking, insect poison-j kins County __ purchased a li-
ing and similar conversation. cense last year so they could
when people get together.
I was talking with John
Jackson, our local game war-
den the other day about our
game prospects this fall. He
said he felt there is a good
supply of quail, squirrel, and
deer in our area. He said the
cool nights may be causing the
dove to migrate south. Hunt-
ing game and fowl has become
a big business.
Local landowner's have learn-
ed they can add to their farm
income by leas in g hunting
rights on their farms. Sports-
men coming into an area has
become quite a factor for the
income of the county in many
areas. When a group are on a
hunting trip, they spend
money a little more freely
than usual. Just as most of us
charge for hunting rights on
their land. As a service to lo-
cal landowners, the Hopkins
County Chamber of Commerce
has offered its services as a
clearing house for leases. Any-
one having land they would
like to lease for hunting priv-
ileges can leave the informa-
tion at the Chamber of Com-
merce office. Then anyone
who wants to obtain a hunting
lease can get the information
on land available at the Cham-
ber office. Judson Perkins, lo-
cal Chamber of Commerce
manager, said they would be
more than glad to furnish
these services.
According to Bruce Mathews,
Jr., and William McGlamery,
both in the Como-Brinker
area, plans should be made
do during a vacation trip. This now fog establishing good pas-

m e a d o w s. McGlamery set
coastal sprigs las^ April and
has made two cuttings this j
year which will yield over 100
bales of good hay. He said seed
bed preparation and fertiliza-
tion was probably the key to
his success.
Mathews uses Crimson Clo-1
ver as a pasture and soil build- i
er along with commercial fer-
tilizer to improve his pastures
and meadows. He is also sold
on Kobe and Serecia Lespede-
za. These men’s farms along
with George Dickens of Bra-
shear were visited this past
week by Farmers Home Ad-
ministration supervisors of
Northeast Texas to study the
costs of establishing meadows
and pastures. These farmers
along with many others of this
area have excellent demon-
strations on how to establish
good pastures and meadows,.
We are gald to find that we
have had no reports of screw-
worms this past week. We have
had several reports of Army-
worms in grass crops, however.
The Armyworm can soon de-
stroy young oats or other ten-
der grasses if not controlled.

College Station — A little
extra care while harvesting and
handling peanut crops this year
can mean marketing a higher
quality product.
W. S. Allen, extension agri-
cultural engineer, Texas A&M
College, says that with ]H*a-
nuts in many areas of Texas
now being cured artificially the
problems involved in handling
and conveying can be cirtieal.
I Handling and conveying
l equipment should be of a type
that will cause as little dam-
I age as possible to the peanuts
i and should be operated correct-
ly to insure their high quality,
j according to Allen. Solid belt
conveyors to move fresh pea-
tnuts are the best for most op-
erations and will avoid excess
shelling and cracking, he says.
Harvesting should be started
when most of the kernels are
mature and should be done
promptly when the'vines have
matured the large percentage
of sound, mature peanuts. How-
ever, combining should not be
started until the moisture con-
tent of the peanuts is 30 per
cent or less, according to Allen.
Curing can best be done if
the farmer stock peanuts are
cleaned before artificial curing

alternate to Herschler who is a
ready reservist in the US Air

In any large scale emer-
gency, there are needs for ac-
tions beyond the capabilities of
individuals and families. Among
your needs is advance informa-
tion regarding the effects of
nuclear weapons and how you
can avoid danger. You want to
is begun and as much sand,
dirt and foreign matter as pos-
sible is removed. This will per-
mit more uniform distribution
of air through the peanuts, the
engineer says.
More practices 'recommended
for the drying of peanuts to
avoid off-flavrs and deterior-
ation of quality can be obtain-
ed from your county agricul-
tural agent, explains Allen.
