EACH SYMBOL REPRESENTS
IOO MILLION BUSHELS OF WHEAT
i? i
As indicated by the chart above, wheat this year is competing strongly
for the world’s market. Principal producing countries such as Argen-
tina, Australia, Canada, and the United States have more than a billion
bushels for sale, but the total world market is expected to be less than
half a billion bushels. U. S. farmers are being urged to continue planting
in accordance with AAA Program wheat acreage allotments, to help
balance American wheat supply with expected demand.
Pumping Wells
Lead in Texas
DALLAS, April 24—Pumping
wells are far in the majority
among Texas oil wells, a survey
just made by the Texas Mid-Con-
tinent Oil and Gas Association
shows.
The pumpers, many of them
making only a barrel or Lvo of
oil a day, constitute almost 60 per
cent of all the oil wells in the
state, the survey showed. Outside
the East Texas field, the percent-
.age is even higher, with ^72 per
•cent of all producing wells on the
pump. In some areas of the state
as high as 98 per cent of all wells
are pumpers.
In actual number, Texas pump-
ing wells totalled' 52,972 against
36,942 still flowing. Outside East
Texas, pumpers numbered 45,836
compared with 17,844 which flow-
ed. Figures are as of Jan. 1, 1940.
Out of the approximately mil-
lion Texans who get their entire
living from the petroleum indus-
try, 125,000 depend solely upon
pumping wells, the survey shows.
* ‘ While the average pumping
well in Texas produces about sev-
en barrels of oil daily, further an-
alysis shows that nearly 24,000
stripper wells produce an average
of only 3.9 barrels a day,” the as-
sociation pointed out. “Some of
these produce only a half barrel
a day, but nevertheless are im-
portant to the small operator
whose sole income comes from a
few of them.
‘ ‘ These stripper wells are the
backbone of Texas oil industry
since many communities and a
majoritv of the people ahving in
them demand upon such oil fields
for their existence ”

Check examinations made by
Forestry Service workers on the
Prairie S'tates project show that
at least 95 per cent of the ever-
greens in Northwest Texas shel-
terless have developed new roots
since they were planted—some
trees having a* mat of from one
to two-inch roots.
This is an all-important fac-
tor in determining whether or
not a tree will pull through the
hot summer, according to W. E.
Webb, state director of the proj-
ect. A large number of the 250,-
000 evergreens planted in the
shelterbelts are (being protected by
shingles an-d large cans with the
tops and bottom cut out. Farm-
ers are being urged to use these
devices to prevent covering up
the young trees when the shelter-
belt is being cultivated.

Every ho*me fire that is preven-
ted, means that resources are con-
served. It mean's that men and
materials need not be diverted
from vital defense work. It means
that our communities can give all
their energies to making us strong-
er, not to ^replacing something
which has been needlessly de-
stroyed. It means that greater and
faster nroeress is made toward
consummating the greatest indus-
trial production in our history.
Remember that in a single year
fire destroyed values great
enough to have built 45 costly na-
val cruisers. That should not hap-
pen here.

TEXAS STAMPS SOLD ON
WILDLIFE RESTORATION
Multi-colored stamps, bearing
pictures of birds, animals, trees
and flowers, went on sale Mon-
day as Texas began observance of
National Wildlife Restoration
week.
Funds raised were to go to the
Federal Wildlife Federation, -with
headquarters in Washington,
sponsor of the celebration which
began Monday.
Programs were planned at Tex-
as A. & M. college and other
, schools were game management
courses are taught.
“If you want to land a job
this summer, don’t keep it a sec-
ret,” advise Robert K. Burns and
5Lyle M. Spencer in their article
on Summer Jobs appearing in the
May issue of BOYS’ LIFE. “Let
your parents, friends, relatives,
Scout leaders, and teachers know
that you’re looking for work. Ask
them to contact you immediately
if they hear of possible openings.
In soime cases, it’ll be a good idea
to write letters to prospective em-
ployers, interview them personal-
ly. or keep in touch with them by
telephone. Sometimes “pull” will
help, but often the job goes to
the boy who gets out and wears
down his shoe leather visiting
possible emplovers and filling out
applications.”
Mrs. J. C. Freeman and Mrs.
Harry Edenborough were Ama-
rillo visitors Tuesday.
