MY CLUB
HISTORY
i
From The Dallas News:
■TEXAS in area and natural Te-
rn sources often has been call-
ed, and rightly, an empire. It
is the coming empire State, and
within a generation will be ad-
mittedly a leading Common-
wealth in the Union.
But this coming leadership
demands that those who control
the destiny of the State should
have vision and foresight suf-
ficient to plan in a large way a
program as a guide for action in |
later years. Topsy “just grow-
ed,” but scientific growth is
based on intelligent surveys of
situations and wise judgements.
Texas has enormous natural
wealth, but the wealth from the
production of it enriches outsid-
ers; little remains within the
State. It has much capital in
its financial centers, but com-
paratively little of it is invested
in Texas industries. The pur-
chasing power of its almost six
millions of population is huge in
amount, but the goods purchas-
ed mostly come from outside the
State.
Through ignorance the fer
tile lands of Texas are declining
in fertility because of erosion
and a one-crop system; its mag-
nificent forests have been
shamelessly wasted and prac-
tically no attempts made to re-
forest cut-down areas suited
only to timber. Texas is an
empire of natural wealth, but
its economic leaders accumulate
wealth for themselves with
small forethought for the future
generations of Texans.
The best wealth of Texas
consists of the energy and brain
capacity of its people. Among and belted that I wcuid take poultry
these is much dormant talent j this year, because with poultry I have
be making money
e!r\ minerals and vltaminee. I have
erved the required food five times anc
:om* of the foods that I learned to
■erve last year which was, twin moun-
ain muffins, whole wheat muffin-
»L- uits and vegetables. Outside of m>
tub cooking I have served 100 meal:
‘3 aur family of six. I have packet
120 school and other lunches. I have
i' o assisted in setting the table almost
'very day, using the methods learned
n club work.
I have learned to can in both glass
a s and tin cans, using the steam
' sure cooker. I have also learned
hat non-acid vegetables must be
"ked longer in canning than those
‘hit are acid.
I have canned the following: To-
■' *oes, four containers: other vege-
Ubles, fourteen quarts and 80 tin cans
No. 2. ibeans, eight quarts; jellies and
^reserves, five quarts and pickles, one
quart. I have found that foods pre-
served at home are cheaper and just
as good and healthy as those bought
at the grocery store, and that canned
vegetables must be used when there
not a fresh supply in the garden.
My sewing problems were, a gown,
under garments and a dresser scarf, i
For my gown I chose white nainsook.
The reason I used white wao that It
would not fade and would be just as
pretty after it was laundered as it
did before. In making my gown I used
French seams under arms and should-
er seams. The hem of the gown was
whipped and also the hem of the
sleeves. For trimming I used rolled
whipped tucks and shell scallops. All
year, one two day course at
Commerce and one one-day shori
sc at Cooper. I enjoyed both of
hr e short courses and especially the
at Commerce. The main features
cth short courses were lectures
n connected with the Extension
•ice at A. & M. and the college
’lty of the State Teachers College
t Commerce. I also enjoyed the
"pnstTations given by the club girls
n the different counties at Com-
r ce.
Club work has meant a great deal
” me and I have learned a great
leal about my project. Also it has
helped to broaden my ideals of living
It has learned me how to act on
committees and plan programs that
will be interesting to 4-H Club girls.
: really don't see how any farm girl
jets along Without a 4-H Club. I
sure that I never could.

work is as follows:

STATEMENT OF THE OWNERSHIP,
MANAGEMENT, CIRCULATION,
By MABEL ANN MANLEY.
I joined the 4-H Club February 25.
took club work last year and in-
tended to take again this year, but
I moved in January and to my great
c (-appointment I found there was not
a girls club in the community that
1 moved into. I talked to several of
‘he girls at school and found that all
cf them wanted a club, but had never
been able to get one organised. We
all decided that we would go to see
Mies Morgan and asked her to come
cut to our school and organize a club.
She came the 25th day of February.
She told our teacher that she wanted
• 0 talk to the girls about club work.
After she told us what the value was
che asked how many of us would like
to have a club organized in cur com-
munity. You may be sure that m.v
hand was one cf the first to go up.
because I wanted to finish mv four
vears of club work. I also liked the
information that club girls get through
the Extension!Service of the A. & M.
Colloge. It teaches us to do cur house
v. o-l; and canning in a systematic way.
C'ub work also gives the same credits
j in high school as domestic ..eience and
are does.
I chose poultry for my productive
project. I took gardening last year
that should have opportunity
for expression in action. But
more than half the populatio i
are so poor that their standards
of living are necessarily low. In
consequence their children are
worked prematurely, and, ob-
taining merely the rudiments of
education, they become stunted
in body and mind—the greatest
waste of a wasteful State.
What Texas needs is a defin-
ite program for the younger
generation to accomplish in the
next twenty-five years. The re-
sources of Texas should enrich
Texas and Texans. Its farming
population should own their
lands, not be tenants in a con-
dition quite like serfdom. Its
empty forest lands should be re-
forested and exempted from
taxation for the period of
growth. Small industries should
be established in every village
and town of the State to supply
work and to put on sale Texan-
made goods. “Made in Texas”
should be a guaranty of excel-
lence in material and manqfac-
ture. Above all, the younger
generation should be free to ac-
quire a generous education, com-
bined with a training for voca-
tions on the farm and in the
future industries of Texas.
a project that will
the year around.
I did not have any poultry at the
first of the year. Mother and Daddy
decided that they would turn the fam-
ily flock over to me. The flock con-
sisted cf twenty-six White Leghorn
spring pullets, fourteen hens and three
occkrels. During March I set 80 eggs
under hens and hatched 71 chicks. All
of them lived except four, which were
killed by accident. When my baby
chicks were 48 hours old I gave them
water and buttermilk. The next day
I gave them corn bread crumbs which
were baked to a crisp brcwn. I let
them eat all they wanted for 5 min-
utes three times a day. I also gave
them plenty of frseh sand and char-
coal. When the chicks were three
weeks old I gradually changed them
from cornbread to small crushed grain.
I was very particular about the water
that I gave the chicks and kept the
water containers clean. They were
washed with soap every day and were
filled with clean water three times a
day. I bought fifty baby chicks from
Rube S. Wells, but had bad luck with
them and raised a little better than
fifty per cent cf them. The highest
egg production was in the months of
March and June. The production was
low in the months of July and Aug-
ust. During this year my hens have
produced 1.800 eggs valued at $31.70.
I learned that milk which was used
in the cooking of the cottage cheese.
American dish, and the boiled custard
is rich in the following: protien, car-
bohydrates, mineral and vitamines A.
B and C., which are very essential
for the body. Eggs also contain pro-
of the seams were turned toward the
front. For my gown I chose a straight
line pattern with a boat shaped neck.
I also used white nainsook for my
under garments. I chose a pattern
w'hich I thought would fit comfort-
ably and wear well. I preferred
French panties and brassiere to the
under garments. I made all
seams of my panties flat fell. I made
all of my under garments by machine.
For the fastening of my brassiere I
used hooks and eyes and for my pan-
ties I used buttons. I have made
three dresses, two slips and remodeled
two cotton dresses and cleaned and
r< modeled on silk one. For my little
sister I have made two dresses and
onepair of teds. I have also made
one gown and a (pair of teds and step-
ms for myself beside my club problem.
I entered the appropriate dress con-
test under Group A. Although I did
not win I feel that I did not lose any-
thing for I have now learned what
colors suit my complexicn and type
bc?t, also what patterns look the best
on me. During this year I have clean-
ed and pressed six pairs of men’s and
bov-’ trousers and four suits. I have
i1 -> cleaned and pressed my winter
"cat twice. I have done the laundry
r—ral times and have assisted in
it several times, I think that
T l ave learned to fold clothing so that
‘h'y will not show creases and
wrinkles.
The first thing that I did this year
award home improvement was to make
a dresser scarf. For this I used nat-
ural colored linen. I mitered the cor-
and used fagoting for trimming,
which is very pretty. I cleaned the
”nrd and set cut the following shrub-
bery: lilac, japonida, snow- ball, wis-
teria. lemon and crepe myrtle. With
he assistance of Dad and my brother
T moved the brick and wood piles from
‘he front to the back of the house. I
-leaned the walls, ceiling, window' fac-
rts. door facing and floor of the
kitchen. I cleaned the window facings.
1cors and door facings of two bed
*crms. I re-arranged the furniture in
both bed rooms and papered the wall,
•ainted floor and ceiling cf my bed
com. For the canvassing of my room
I used old discarded clothing and
beets. I also dyed the curtains a«d
-finished my bookshelf.
T have held the office of vice pres-
et nt and served on the program com-
mittee this year. I gave the first year
girls one demonstration on the mak-
ing cf their aprons and helped to
tccch them how to do the fagoting
and hemming of their dresser scarf.
also let the girls of the club use my
K-kshelf for a pattern to make theirs
iy. I have attended two short courses

Notice to TRe Public
Request Is made of those farmers
who owe us notes and accounts not
to sell their cotton at present pre-
vailing prioes. Since the United States
Government is now flnnacing and
supervising a marketing plan, operated
upon pretty much the same basis as
the post office, and under which
marketing plan we can hold our cot-
ton yet draw on it for within a few
dollars of what it would bring on the
present market, we are offering those
who owe us notes or accounts 13c per
pound, basis middling, for their ootton
delivered at nearest railroad.
We could not afford to da this, and
would not do so, except for the fart
that we really believe ootton easily
worth 12c per pound, and think thai
it will bring that price if marketed
in an orderly, systematic and efficient
manner such as we are now offered
by the Federal Farm Bureau. We
have handled about 50 bales of cotton
in this manner, and are well pleased
with the results. ret|

SAME PRESCRIPTION *
HE WROTE IN 1892
When Dr. Caldwell started to practice
medicine, liack in 1H75, the needs for a
laxative were not as great as today.
People lived normal lives, ate plain,
wholesome food, uiul got plenty of fresh
air. But even that early tliere were
drastic physics and purges for the relief
of constipation which l)r. Caldwell did
not believe were good'for human beings.
I he prescription for constipation that
he used early in his practice, and which
be put in drug store# in 1892 under the
name of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin,
is a liquid vegetable remedy, intended
for women, children and elderly people,
and they need just such a mild, safe
bowel stimulant.
Hiig prescription has proven its worth
and is now the largest selling liquid
laxative. It has won the confidence of
people who needed it to get relief from
headaches, biliousness, flatulence, indi-
gestion, loss of appetite and sleep, bad
breath, dyspepsia, colds, fevers. At your
