those of April last year. Unfilled
orders on April 30, amounting to
6,510,000 yards, were 8 per cent
below those on the corresponding
date last year.
Decline Noted In
Number Of Cotton
Bales Used In April
Austin.—Only 2,786 bales of cot-
ton were used in sixteen Texas
textile mills during April, a decline
of 25.6 per cent and 53 per cent
respectively from the previous month
and April last year, according to the
University of Texas Bureau of Busi-
ness Research.
Production of cloth, totaling 3,-
511,000 yards, was down 24.3 per
cent and 37.5 per cent from the two
comparable periods. Sales, 2,689,000
yards, were 31.6 per cent below
those of March but 2 per cent above
Interstate Poultry And
Egg Shipments Down
Austin.—Poultry and egg move-
ments from Texas to interstate
points by rail during April were
sharply below those of a year ago,
according to the University of Texas
Bureau of Business Research.
Forwardings of poultry and eggs
combined totaled 113 cars of which
72 cars were poultry and 41 cars
eggs. During April last year there
was a total of 162 cars made up of
80 cars of poultry and 82 cars of
eggs. The decline from last year
was 31 per cent. The decline in rail
shipments is in part due to increased
shipments by water to Atlantic and
Gulf ports. It is also probable that
truck, shipments have made furher
inroads into this traffic, especially
to New Orleans.
Receipts of eggs from outside the
state were only 20 cars, all of which
came from Kansas. Last year 67
car's were shipped in, 63 from Kan-
sas, 3 from Illinois, and 1 from
Wisconsin.
Dr. E. F. Robertson was in Wich-
ita Falls Monday on business.

FRIDAY AND SATURDAY
Ten Million For \ University To Offer
New Shelterbelt j Course In Home Plan
Program Sought
With the first year’s plantings on
the great plains tree shelterbelt,
nearing completion, officials of the
project prepared Saturday to ask a
$10,000,000 allotment of work relief
funds* for another year’s work.
Scurry county, designated recently
as one of the most southernmost
counties in the belt, would profit by
thousands of dollars if the new
allotment were made, according to
those who conferred here recently
with state shelterbelt officials
Forsters and scientists who have
aided them in determining where
trees may best be grown and what
types in the 100-mile wide zone
from Canada to Texas revised fig-
ures preparatory to making a formal
request for funds but rough esti-
mates indiacted $10,000,000 would
pay for the stock which can be pur-
chased or grown in nurseries for
next year and the acquiring of land
for the plantings.
Paul H. Roberts, director of the
project which calls for strips of
trees to break the winds in the plains
area, said the first year’s program
appeared to have made a successful
start.
“We have had some damage to the
stock set out this spring from blow-
ing,” he said, “but it has been rela-
tively slight. “Generally conditions
appear favorable.
“If we have 60 to 70 per cent
survival of the stock we planted
this spring, we will think our work
well done. That would not be a had
percentage for such plantings under
normal conditions, let alone in an
[area where some adverse conditions
are to be expected.”

growth is due to a sub-irrigated
condition that nature fixed in the plan
for that hill-side farm that has been
converted into one of the finest and
larges orchards in Young county.
And that orchard is not just a
play affair. It represents a revenue
producing venture that sounds pretty
good. It is understood people from
many surrounding communities come
for fruit from this orchard and that
likely five to seve^p thousand bushels
of peaches could be sold at the
orchard each year. The price is
usually about $1.00 per bushel. Fig-
ure is yourself. It is worth the
drive to see such an orchard and to
know that Young county has such
natural fruit and vegetable soils.
The writer is grateful to Mr. and
Mrs. Furr for a generous box and
bag of peaches and plums from the
orchard, brought to this office re-
cently. ■

Change To Low Heels
