! A'ltb other proxroaalTe move* made
i>jr the Department. A total of 100
I Heer trap* have been ordered • built.
Twenty-two were constructed and ua-
i d «ith gieat success last winter in
| ’he Hill Country.
The Department, deapite a late
I 'tart with (he new trap*, captured
1 nore than 100 deer and transported
1 .hem to regions depleted of big
tame. With a tofil of 122 traps op-
j crating next winter tbe Department
1 iiopea io trap and transplant several
: hundred .leer.
Few deer were trapped in past
1 year* due to the luck of a trup which
operated successfully. However, the
! trap now being used, which catches
one deer at a time was developed.
The executive secretary of the De-
partment. highly pleased with the
way the traps operated, last winter,
ordered the additional 100. In the
past many of the deer distributed
nave been tame or semi-tame deer
which were picked up by ranchers
; as fawns. Those will still be col-
lected and distributed, but t|»e exe-
cutive secretary baa high hopes of
tar more rapid and successful* re-
stocking due to both the increase in
number of animals trapped and to
the fact that they will be wild deer,
better adapted for restocking pur-
poses.

RABBITS BATTLE SNAKE
Many times the statement. “Truth
is stranger than fiction* has been
used in connection with many fact
stories. “Believe it or not” is the
chrase that should be used in this
story even though this incident Is
truly stranger than fiction.
Mr. Odel Morris, acting rallef
pumper for the city of Comanche ut
Lake Ranes. was standing lu the door
of the pump station recently when he
noticed a small rabit about one third
grown hopping along near the statiou.
Suddenly a snake grabbed the small
rabbit and be began to squall. Here
tbe old snake got a big surprise, be-
cause there appeared two full grown
cotton tall rabbits and jumped on
the anake and force! him to ro-
.lease the baby rabbit. Papa, mama
and baby rabit went of/ in u hurry,
while the old snake took off to a
lumber pile nearby for cover.
This story was confirmed by Elbert
Stewart, regular pumper who witness-,
ed the odd occurence.

PHEASANTS DO NOT THRIVE
Pheasants will not do well 1n
Texas except in captivity and oc-
casional reports that the birds are
spreading are minimized by the
Game Department. Records show that
In few sections of the state will tho
birds do well In me wild. For ex-
ample. approximately 50 pheasants
remain out of the 152 young birds
liberated in the spring of 1938 oa a
large tract of land in Colorado Coun-
ty. At least seven brools were rear-
ed in 1939 and pheasant eggs were
found this year tu March. Some of
the pheasants have roamed aa far
as five miles from the point of re-
lease.

Wildcat Oil Test Is
Drilling at 7,400 Ft.
The Harrold No. 1 Armstrong wild-
cat oil te-t. two and one-hslf miles
southeast of Henderson, was drilling
at 7.400 feet today, nearing the total
contract depth of T.Son feet.
As 7.50O feet a Scblumb* rger tax*
will be made to get a picture of the
wildcat, which is said to be holdll
the spotlight for oil men in this arts

OUN CULBERSON
TON (EXT RAILROAD COMMISSIONER
Should be a man with the people’s true interest at heart
Vote For and Support
Olin Culberson because he is experienced; having served six years as chief of the oil
and gas division of the commission.
He is not backed by the utility combines, corporations, or giant monopolies who
have tried to dominate the railroad commission for the past few years.
Culberson has been the best friend the insurance payer ever had and he has lead
the fight which saved the gas consumers of Texas untold thousands in rate re-
ductions. The commission turned Culberson out for fighting for the rights of the
little man.
Culberson has had wide experience as a county official of his home county and has
never promoted any real estate deals or dancing contests in Florida.
Culberson can get along with Governor O'Daniel. His opponent in this run-off dad
not get the endorsement of Lee O'Daniel when he was a candidate for lieutenant
governor against Coke Stevenson two years ago. There is no logicxd reason to
think O'Daniel has shifted over to Pierce Brooks in this race.
What about the many sound trucks and political posters on the highways of Texas
in behalf of the candidacy of Pierce Brooks? Sound trucks cost money—the cost of
operation of gas, oil, and batteries is tremendous—the cost for a drivers salary is
high. If this type work is being volunteered by friends of any exmdidate they usual-
ly expect a lucrative job after the camp atgn is over or some sort of political favor.
If the people of Panola county will make a short swing through the oil belt in
this section they can get their eyes full of highway posters advertising the candi-
dacy of Mr. Brooks. These roadside sign companies operate at nice profits. No can-
didate can buy his picture on one for a very small sum. Evidently plenty of money
must have been spent to get these posters up. Advertising costs money and it
speaks for itself. Plenty of time remains before the run-dff-—drive up in the vicinity
of Kilgore and look around for yourself.
What about the newspaper, “Texas Voice" which has been operating for the past
several weeks in behalf of the candidacy of Pierce Brooks? Newsprint, ink, ma-
terials of publishing a paper are now at an all time peak in price. Who can afford
aueh a publication printed free and distributed throughout Ike Mato postage pre-
paid. Any man experienced in tke publtaking field will tell yon tkat it costs hun-
dreds of dollars to keep a newspaper going all over tke state for any laugtk of
time. The postage all over Texas far just one issue would

IS THE RIGHT MAN IN THIS RACE
