on the hope that President Roosevelt
will use some of the $4,000,000,000

SURVEY CREW EXTENDS
WORK INTO VALLEY
McALLEN. — A transcontinental
geodetic survey from Devil's Lake,
N. D., to a point on the Rio Grande,
near Mission, has been under way
since Sept. 6, 1934, and will be com-
pleted sometime in the next few
months, it was learned here Wednes-
day.
The survey is being made by the
United States Coast and Geodetic
Survey under the direction of Lieu-
tenant Carl I. Aslakson. Assisting
him are Signalman Walter J. Bilby,
Ensign Raymond Tryon, and Survey-
or H. Sutton and 92 other men. The
party uses a fleet of 48 trucks in its
work and-earries trailers, tents and
other camping equipment on its route

through the country.
The party is now located in Kerr
county, a short distance from Kerr-
ville, it was learned, and is progress-
ing steadily toward the Valley.
The party started its work near
the North Dakota town last Septem-
ber 6 and has made rapid progress.
Its work is known as first order tri-
angularon and its average accuracy
is represented by an error of one-
quarter inch to a mile.
Results of the survey are valuable
in local application, being applied in
mapping highways, railways and oth-
er surface structures and assisting
in fitting them into other surveys
made by the coast and geodetic
survey

Webster defines Cookery as—"the art, process or prac-
tice of cooking."
The art of cooking depends largely upon properly pro-
portioned ingredients, mixed correctly and cooked at a
given heat for the required length of time.
In Modern Cookery, the Cook has access to up-to-the
minute recipes giving the exact steps in the process of
mixing the ingredients, the heat required and the length of
time necessary to bring about the best results. After the
mixing, then, comes the matter of heat.
o
If your cooking is done with Natural Gas in a good
range, equipped with an efficient Oven Heat Regulator, you
may rest assured that the mechanical process of the cook-
ing will be properly completed.
Why contend with other cooking methods when Natural
Oas can be used so cheaply and efficiently? It is the Ideal
Fuel for Modern Cookery.

There s never any doubt about value when
you buy a Ford car. You know it's all right
or Henry Ford wouldn't put it out One thing
that never changes is his policy of dependable
transportation at low cost.
That's the biggest feature of the New Ford.
The reliability and economy of its V-8 engine
have been proved on the road by upwards of
1,400,000 motorists. Owner cost records show
definitely that the Ford V-8 is the most
economical Ford car ever built.
