Otto Goldapp, who recently joined the Brooks and Kleberg D.H.I.A.
has found in his first two months of testing that it will pay him well
to feed a balanced ration. Even though he knew that his ration of the
first month was not balanced and was poor in quality, he thought his
last bull which sired most of the now young herd had ruined it.
During the second month, all conditions of roughage remained ab-
solutely stable and the herd received a balanced concentrate of mainly
home grown feeds with a suitable mineral mix. In that short time, the
same cows increased an average of about 5 lbs. of butterfat for the
month, which was enough to pay the added cost of the ration already.
We believe that, even though they will continue to do better, those once
“let down” cows will never get to the normal production they would
have maintained had a balanced ration been fed all along. The cows
just recently freshening show much more promise than those started on
the former ration.

Signs of the times in a motor age—these highway markers tell the story of a
two-year, lOO.COO-mile truck test run recently completed by Chevrolet. In
Canada, Mexico and every state of the Union, the truck operated on all types
of highways and under every conceivable weather hazard, setting a new world
mark for sustained and certified automotive operation, under the sanction and
official observation of the American Automobile Association. The unit carried
a 4,590-pound "payload.” An average of 15.1 miles per gallon of fuel was main-
tained throughout the 100,000 miles, at an average operating speed of 33.07
miles per hour. Oil mileage was correspondingly high—1,072 miles per quart.

A bill to provide for the estab-
lishment of the Farm Credit Ad-
ministration as an independent
agency of the government was in-
troduced in the House of Repres-
entatives last week by Congress-
man Richard M. Kleberg of the
14th Texas district.
The Farm Credit Administra-
tion became effective by act of
the Congress in 1933 and provided
for the consolidation within one
organization of substantially all
the powers and functions of feder-
al agencies dealing primarily with
agricultural credit. Under a reor- |
ganization act of the governmentj
it was transferred to the Depart-
ment of Agriculture last year.
Under the Farm Credit Admini-
stration are operations of federal
land banks, national farm loan as-
sociations. the federal intermediate
credit banks, regional agricultural
credit corporations, the emergency
cr<>p and feed loan offices, the A-
gricultural Marketing Act revolv-
ing fund, joint stock land banks,
production credit associations,
Central Bank of Cooperatives.

LoCATED in all sections of Texos, 141 refineries
manufacture into finished petroleum products 80 per cent
of the State's crude oil production.
In contrast, Texas processes only 3 per cent of its cotton
production and none of its wool or mohair.
Petroleum refining now constitutes 41 per cent of the value
of all Texas manufactures.
Of the 225,000 Texans regularly employed by the oil
business of the State, 25,000 skilled workmen and
5.000 office employees (a $50,000,000 annual payroll)
are employed in this one division of our oil industry.
All of the Texas oil refined in our State, whether used in
Texas or shipped to other states, paid last year in taxes
an average of 9.8 cents per barrel.
