Kiwanians Elect
Harris and Miller
Vice-President*
At a special ol-oction held Tues-
day at the regular meeting of the
Kiwanis club, J. W. Harris was
elected first vice-president and H.
K. Miller named as second vice-
president of the club.
The election was made neces-
sary by the resignation of A. C
Casey recently as first vice-presi-
dent. Harris was advanced to the
vacant position left by the resig-
nation of Mr. Casey. Miller was
named to succeed Mr. Harris.
The meeting was presided over
by F. 0. Babcock.
The program was in charge of
Hugh Chesnut. The program next
week will be in charge of Geo.
Hodges.
Dr. McFarling led the singing
and the invocation was offered by
Homer Connally.
Limb Hauling After
Ice Storm Started
To Clear Sidewalks
Hauling of limbs trimmed from
the broken trees of Denison inci-
dent to the recent ice storm got
started in a formidable way this
week when the situation was tak-
en over by the ctiy trucks aided
by additional vehicles.
It is very likely it will require
many weeks to remove the debris,
most of which is ready to pick
up, having been placed in the po-
sition between the sidewalks and
the curbing, as requested by the
city street commissioner.

Sum on Oil Deal as
Overcharge is Found
WASHINGTON — Recovery of-
ficials this week announced an
agreement under which France
will refund $120,000 in premium
payments on crude oil bougljt last,

Officials said this country paid
above the market rates for oil
shipped to France from Corpus
Christ, Texas, by the Dale W.
Moore oil company, and from Ba-
ton Rouge, Louisiana, by the Pla-
cid Oil company.
Under an agreement between
the economic cooperation adminis-
tration and recovery nations, the
agency has the right to demand re-
fund of such excess payments.
Premium rates were paid on
ten Moore company shipments and
two by the Placid company.

look to this crimson and white
apple salad that's pretty enough
for your company dinners and so
easy to make you'll want to serve
it for family meals, too. It's espe-
cially timely now when the markets
are featuring the crisp, spicy-fla-
vored Winesap apples from Wash"
ington State because these tender,
juicy apples are perfect for salads,
as well as for fresh fruit eating.
(P.S. to mothers: these shining red
Washington Winesaps are just
right to tuck into Junior's lunch-
box to be sure he gets his apple a
day!)
To prepare the salad, core the
apples, but do not peel. Cut into
slices, then spread the slices with
softened cream cheese or roque-
fort. Add walnut meats and serve
with French dressing.
Another appetizing salad that
makes extra good eating these
days is this tossed apple-cabbage
dish. The delicious flavor of the
Winesap apples makes a special
treat of this healthful salad, and
it s appropriate for either luncheon
or dinner service.

At the regular meeting held last

For instance, a house that is im-
properly insulated is usually un-
evenly heated, cooler at the floor
than near the ceiling. A fan plac-
ed near the heater or heating ■unit,
aimed at an adjacent wall toward
the ceiling anfl set at a slow speed,
will circulate the warm air around
the room.
Another winter use for an elec-
tric fan is for drying clothes in-
doors. Winter weather sometimes
makes it difficult to dry clothing
even in tlje house. "Set a fan at
one end of the line of clothes,"
Mrs. Claytor says, "and it will
speed the drying process. Or use
it to dry coats and overshoes soak-
ed by rain or snow."
Portable electric fans can be
used at any season of the year to
carry off cooking odors from the
kitchen. "If your home does not
have a large ventilating fan in
the wall or window, you may face
a portable fan toward a slightly
open window and allow it to run
while foods wtih strong odors are
cooking,. The odors will go out the
window," Mrs. Claytor concludes.
death Mr. Boothman decided to
close a deal if he could with Mrs.
Cockrill for the line of goods left
by her late husband. The deal con-
summated, Mr. Boothman is now
preparing to enlarge the shoe de-
partment and will soon make a
special introductory offer to the
shoe buying public.

There are more than 1100 ac-
tive farmers' cooperatives in the
state, and 95 per cent of these
serve local groups of approximate-
ly 200 members each. Eighty-nine
new cooperatives were chartered
during 1948.
Pride in Garden
Beating Neighbor's
Is Worthy Ambition
Bigger than the neighbor's.
That's the ambition of fevery
home gardener. Everybody who
grows vegetables for the family
table wants to be able to boast
the biggest—both in size and yield
—in the neighborhood.
In order to do this, J. F. Ros-
borough, extension horticulturist
of Texas A. & M. college, suggests
getting a big start with even the
smallest seed. This calls for seed
treatment and innoculation. From
the standpoint of the home garden-
er, the easiest way to treat the
seed is to g.et a packet of seed dis-
infectant from the local seed store.
Then tear the top of the seed
packet off, and sprinkle a small
amount of the disinfectant inside.
Then al you have to do is shake
the packet well. Make sure the
! shaking is thorough enough to local seed store.
cover eevry seed in the packet.
It's best to plant the treated
seed right away. Seed treatment
not only destroys certain seed-
borne diseases, but helps the pro-
cess of germination. There are cer-
tain fungus molds that often dam-
age seed at the time of germina-
tion, and seed treatment gives a
higher percentage of vigorous
plants at the soil surface.
Innoculation of legume seed
stimulates early growth because of
certain bacteria in the soil. So,
when you plant English peas in
the next few weeks, Rosborough
suggests trying this innoculation
process to get an early start. Later
In the season you might also in-
noculate your early plantings of
beans, as well as the black-eyed
peas or purple hulls and cream
peas.
The innoculation and seed treat-
ment supplies are available at the

KATY CAR LOADINGS
Car loading# for the Katy for
the week ending Jan. 29 this year
were 4,450 as against a total for
the same time last year of 4,370.
For the period from Jan. 1st to
Jan. 29 this year the total was 20,-
870 as against 20,427 last year.
For the same periods of time
this year in loadings received from
connections the total were 8,76S
and 15,919 as against 4,305 and
17,740 for the same periods last
year.
The prospects are bright for a
large number of rural families to
have electrical service for the first
time during 1949.
Use Electric Fans
In Winter to Give
Home Better Heating
"Many families do not realize
that portable electric fans can be
used in the winter as well as the
summer,'' Mrs. Bernice Claytor,
extension home management spec-
ialist of Texas A. & M. college
points out. "Usually at the end of
summer, the fans are put away
until the next warm season. But
actually they can be put to use in

Medical Prices
Will Increase
Shortages® always raise prices.
The Texas Medical Association,
by restricting: enrollment in Tex-
as medical schools to barely
enough to replace deaths and re-
tirement has cut down our supply
of doctors, esrpecially in our rural
areas, thereby causing a short-
age and higher fees for services,
While 3,000 pre-med students find
the gates barred against them.
This same medical association
now plans to get control of the
tiupply of : H competitive healing
professions, so they can cut off
replacements in these healing
professions, and make the short-
age even more acute and thus
raise the prices higher than to-
day.
The Basic Science Bill (S. B.
63) is designed to glv« the Medi-
cal Association complete control
of all branches of the healing'
arts and it is being pushed by
unlimited funds and a high-
priced lobby. If we, the people,
do not write, phone or visit our
senators and representatives, we
will have this Infamous legisla-
tion forced upon us.
This is a call for action. If you
want to know the names of your
legislators, phone this newspa-
per. Address letters to them at

"NEFF? SURE 1 REMEMBER HIM. Class of '19,
wasn't he?"
"That's right. You knew he had to give up
his job. Doctor's orders."
"Tough break. Hope he had some money
saved up."
"Not Neff. Not a penny. You know how he
always was—easy come, easy go. Had to sell
his house to get out of debt."
"Rough on that sweet little wife of his.
Now that I think of it, she kept trying to talk
him out of his free-spending ways. Guess she
never could."
"He'd never listen-. And now those two
boys of theirs are of college age."
"Guess now they'll have to go to work,
supporting him. Why do people get them-
selves in a spot like that? Anybody with the
common sense of a jack-rabbit knows that
the only way to protect their families and them-
selves is with a systematic plan of saving."
• • •
We don't know Neff. We merely overheard
two fellows talking at lunch the other day.
Actually we feel sorry for him—for anyone
who doesn't know the importance of saving.
Fortunately, for every Neff there are thou-
sands of others who do have a plan for the
future. These are the men who invest a part
of their earnings each month in U.S. Savings
Bonds.
They can see the wisdom in the Payroll
Savings Plan—a painless, automatic plan that
pays back $4 for every $3 put in, after ten years.
They know that U.S. Savings Bonds are
guaranteed by the Government—the safest,
surest investment a family man can make
today!
If you're not on a payroll, ask at your bank
about the equally convenient Bond-A-Month
Plan. Remember—you owe it to your own
future and to the security of your family!
