furnish men for examinatipn in
August.
Local board calls for Sep-
ductrb'n examination are sched-.
ternber induction and pre-in-
uled to be mailed from state
Selective Service headquarters
on July 31.
The September quota will be
filled with men who are 22
years of age or older on Sep-
tember 1, with the exception of
delinquents or volunteers, who
may be younger.
Colonel Schwartz said he ex-
pected the September call to be
filled with volunteers and men
without children. He said de-
linquents are liable first, but
the boards do not have many
delinquent men.
He warned young fathers
they must advise their local
boards about the birth or ex-
pected birth of a child. By law,
the draft board treats the fath-
ers as childless unless he pro-
vides the board with the facts.

SEPT. DRAFT
CALL ASKS FOR
687 mm
The September draft call for
Texas asks for 687 men, com-
pared to 536 for the same
month in 1955, Col. Morris S.
Schwartz, state Selective Serv-
ice director, announced Thurs-
day.
This is the state’s share of
a national call for 14,000 men,
all for the Army. The nation-
tl call for September, 1955, was
10,000.
At the same time, Colonel
Schwartz announced a Sep-
tember call on approximately
half the state’s draft boards
for 1,140 men to take pre-
induction physical and mental
examinations for future calls.
He said that the boards not

The specialists, C. H. Baes of
the Texas Extension Service and
A. C. Magee and B. H. Stone of j ports.
of 1956, despite some weak spots
in the economy, the University
of Texas Bureau Research re-
the Experiment Station, offer to
dairymen five suggestions for
beating the usual summer slump
in milk output. Hay or silage
is suggested as a supplement
for pastures; boost the protein
content of the concentrate mix-
ture in accordance with the
quality of the roughage tire
cows are receiving; graze the
herd early or late in the day
and provide plenty of shade as
a protection against extreme
heat; provide an adequate sup-
ply of clean water at all times
and plan for early seeding of
fall grazing crops. Keep the
land on which the crops will
be planted clean and in con-
dition to hold moisture and they
suggest getting a soil test made
now.
They also offer a tip on buy-
ing hay. The best buy, they
say, is usually hay which was
cut while the plants were
young. Hay from such plants
is higher in leafiness and pro-
tein content and is actually a
better buy even at a higher
price than is hay made from
mature plants.
Local county agents, point
out the specialists, can supply
bulletins and advice on many
of the summer time problems
The increase in business vol-
ume for this year, has not- been
as great as in some other years,
the Bureau explains. Retail
sales and some types of build-
ing decreased..
The largest decline was
shown in building permits is-
sued, but that decline was con-
centrated in the residential
category. Nonresidential build-
ing, which includes industrial,
commercial, institutional, public
utility and public building, in-
creased 23 per cent over the
first half of 1955.
The only other component of
the Bureau’s index of business
activity that declined between
the first half of 1955 and the
like period in 1956 was retail
sales. Sales of non-du^able
goods, however, were 2 per cent
higher.
Consumer income continued
to rise during the first half of
1956. Industrial building in-
creased 58 per cent; industrial
electrical power consumption
rose 19 per cent, and total
electrical power consumption in-
creased 16 per cent.
The best proof of a man’s
religion is the way his family
and dog greet him.
THANK
YOU!
I sincerely appreciate all of the ballots
cast for me in the election Saturday.
I want to express my gratitude and
thanks to everyone who gave encour-
agement and support in my campaign.
I will continue to care for the duties of
office to the best of my knowledge.

WATER CONSUMPTION DATA
ON CATTLE IS RELEASED
Stockmen faced with the
problem of carrying cattle
through drouths with short wa-
ter supplies may find informa-
tion gathered by USDA scientists
on water consumption by beef
and dairy animals very helpful.
Two* scientists, Dr. C. F. Win-
chester and M. J. Morris of the
Agricultural Research Service,
consolidated all available pub-
lished information and added
data they recorded from ex-
periments at Beltsville Mary-
land.
They point out that feed and
water intake are closely re-
lated. If consumption of one
is curtailed, the other also-is
limited. Water intake per unit
of dry matter is the same
whether cattle are on full feed
or on near-starvation rations.
In a pinch, water consumption
for a herd can be cut in half
simply by halving the feed al-
lowance. The scientists point
out that this practice should
never be used with lactating
cows if it can be avoided. A
production decline would re-
sult which might not be over-
come during the lactation per-
iod.
A 1,000 pound animal on
maintenance rations, not gain-
ing or losing weight, will con-
sume 6 gallons of water a day
when air temperature is 70 de-
grees and 9 gallons at 90 de-
grees. A 1,000 steer or heifer
gaining the normal pound a day
on the range requires 10 gallons
of water each day when the air
temperature is 70 and 17 at 90
degrees.
Cutting feed allowances for
steers on full fattening rations
will decrease water consump-
tion and may hejp a stockman
through a short time water
shortage, however, if feed al-
lowances are sharply cut, con-
siderable time may be required
to get them back on full feed
once the water shortage is re-
lieved.
A 1,000 pound cow gaining
no weight but producing 35
pounds of 4 per cent milk daily
requires 18 gallons of water
daily when air temperature is
70 degrees. She can be expect-
ed to drop to 25 pounds of milk
at 90 degrees and will consume
19 gallons of water daily.-
Body and size influence wa-
ter intake and the scientists
found with other factors equal
a 500-pound animal drinks .6
as much as a 1,000 animal and
a 100-pound animal drinks .2
as much as a 1,000-pound one.

sible for a stockman to esti-
mate the probable daily water
consumption of any large herd
of cattle, and to plan an ade-
quate water system for his-
farm or ranch. The data are
not intended for use in de-
termining requirements of In-
dividual animals or small herds
