“Hospitality Room Is To Be
Feature IntNjew Bank Building
PANHANDLE ROOM
By Gene Phillips
j FNB Vice-President
m To prove that we are
Jiot all business and no
play at the First Nation-
al Bank, we are provid-
ing a hospitality room
in the new bank building
Where our customers can
relax and enjoy a good
cup of coffee with their
"friends.
* The coffee lounge idea
is one we have had for
’a long time but could only
,make a reality in the new
•building. Since a bank
gplays such an important
»role in the life of a com-
Jmunity, it was our feel-
png that our customers
"•should be provided a room
To serve as a central
"'gathering spot.
§ This room is designed
to serve a dual purpose,
-The coffee lounge, which
Swe have named the Pan-
; handle Room is dedicated
to the colorful history
of Panhandle and will
serve as a collection point
of historical pictures and
records of our town and
Carson County.
In the Panhandle Room
we hope to create an at-
mosphere that will cause
the oldtimers to reminis
and the younger folks to
learn a little more about
their rich heritage.
The bank already has a
number of pictures for
our Panhandle Room, but
more are needed. If any-
one has early day pic-
tures of Panhandle or old
records that they would

CONWAY--Kelly Ben-
der of Panhandle demon-
strated the process of
collecting water well
samples at the monthly
meeting of the Conway
Go-Getters 4-H Club held
in the Conway Community
House May 25.
Members of the club
plan to collect samples
from water wells in the
area to have them check-
ed for purification.
Bender was introduced
by Bob Sims, county agri-
cultural agent.
Others on the program,
included Bob Younger,
safety superintendent of
Southwestern Public Ser-
vice Company, who show-
ed a filmstrip on “Pulse
of Life.” The film strip
was on mouth-to-mouth
resusciation on the public
service company’s “Re-
susica Ann”, a dummy
designed for first aid
practice.
Younger was intro-
like to lend to the bank,
we will be most apprecia-
tive and will have them
framed for display.
We want our customers
to feel that this is their
room and to feel com-
pletely at home by stop-
ping for a cup of coffee
not only when they are in
the bank on business, but
at any time, during the day
while we are open.

In the absence of the
president, Carla Ketchum

It looks like the Dow
Chemical people have
come up with a good co-
ntrol for hog lice.
F ederal registration
for the use of five per
cent Korlan insecticide
granules applied to the
bedding and ground wal-
lows of hogs for the co-
ntrol of hog louse makes
available to the hog grow-
er a more effective,
easier and safer method
of controlling this pest.
When applied at the
recommended dosage of
1/2 pound per 100 square
feet of bedding area, the
granules control the louse
population in a short per-
iod of time without de-
trimental effects to the
animal.
The granules may be
applied during cold wea-
ther or at any time dur-
ing the year that lice
are present since the hogs
do not have to be handled
durig the process of
treating the bedding or
the common bedding
ground. The dry granules
are formulated ready-to-
use and thus do not re-
quire addition of water
or special equipment for
application.
Most of the factors that
determine whether you
produce quality cotton are
in your hands. These in-
clude variety, planting
time, insect control,
water, fertilization, de-
foliation and harvesting.
Variety is the first step
in a quality cotton pro-
gram. Choose a variety
that has inherent good
“mikeability/’ Also, one
with built-in earliness.
In this area, earliness is
all important. Some early
varieties are Paymaster
101-A, Gregg, and Rilcot
90, according to inform-
ation from 'Levon Ray,
Agronomist at the "South
Plains Research and Ex-
tension Center, Lubbock.
These varieties are re-
commended for late
planting (after June 10)
on the South Plains, says
Ray. In the northern part
of the Plains, these are
“the” varieties to plant
beacause of the short
season, according to the
agronomist.
If cotton is planted after
June 10, look for mike
values to start falling.
With cool weather and
early frost, mike can fall
even further.
Varieties with heritab-
ility of producing high
mike cotton are several.
Among thse Ray lists
Lankart 57, followed by
Paymaster 101-A, Gregg,
Lockett 88, Rex, Austin
and Blightmaster. Vari-
eties with lower mike
heritabilities under ir-
rigation include Northern
Star 511, Northern Star
9 and Western Storm-
proof. Under dryland co-
nditions, these varieties
have good mike.
The agronomist says in
some years, when grow-
ing conditions are “just
right”, Lankart 57 will
fall into the discout brac-
et at the high end of the
micronaire table. Ray
also points out mike read-
ings tend to run higher
on dryland cotton than
irrigated cotton.
Water, and its proper
use, is an imprtant fac-
tor. Research data from
Shelby Newman, also an
agronomist at the center,
shows the more total
water pub on cotton, the
lower the mike. His re-
search shows once 26 or
27 inches water is re-
ceived, mike value shows
a marked decline with
more water. A 6-inch
preplant irrigation, two
4-inch summer waterings
plus the “normal” 13-
inches rainfall brings the
total water applied to 27
inches. More water than
this might bring the mike
reading down, Newman
emphasizes.
Newman also reports
cotton at the center wat-
ered every-other-row
has “miked” better than
cotton watered the con-
ventional every-row met-
hod.
Later this season,
you’ll be thinking of get-
ting the crop harvested
and defoliation will pro-
bably be considered.
Newman maintains defol-
iation is only a tool, a
tool to use only at opti-
mum times under opti-
mum conditions. It’s not
something you’ll want to
use each and every year.
The agronomist also says
if defoliation is used, it
should be done only when
50 to 60 percent of the
bolls are fully open.
When tied-in with de-
foliation and proper har-
vesting methods, these
practices will work to-
gether to insure a pro-
fitable crop of quality
cotton.

Last week we ended
a series of ads which
were preparedbyD. E,

his best known work.)

Say this is quite a rainy
country these days, isn’t
it? We have had a lot
of people help us in many
ways with the paper but
I know of no job that
people enjoy nore than
reporting rain.
It seems everyone has
a good luck charm for the
rain. Let’s hope they keep
working a while longer.
Two weeks ago Friday-
the first rain we had fol-
lowed Mom Peoples and
I from Borger when I
brought her back to spend
the week-end with us. She
is planning to move here
as soon as her home is
built. I told her we would
all want to keep her here
then if she would bring
us rain.
Whatever method for
you works best to bring
rain, keep using it----
wash windows, water the
yard, plan a picnic-just
anything to keep the rain
coming our way.

his last name Peeples
