A SUCCESSFUL
TEXAS FARMER
A Texas paper, published in
one of the smaller town, draws
this picture of a successful
small farmer, and it is not
likely that any one will at-
tempt to deny that the man
described has made and is
making a success of life:
“- R- is one of the
country's most successful
small farmers. He works a
farm which has been in culti-
vation seventy-five years
and was considered worn out
thirty years ago. But instead
of admitting that the farm
was worn out, he went to work
and built it up, and the land
is far more productive now
than it was when he took it in
charge. He hasn’t bought an
ear of corn since he began
farming, and he always has
plenty of cows and hogs to
meet his needs. He milks three
cows and sells two dollars’
worth of products every day.
He keeps about 70 hens and
raises feed for them. He has
fried chicken and ham and
eggs and everything that’s
good to eat every day in the
year, and eating a meal at his
house is like going to an old-
fashioned picnic. His farm is
a small one, but he has reared
and educated a son and five
daughters, and his family
dresses as neatly as any in the
county. He has little to pay
out for his needs, and always
has money in the bank to pay
for what it is necessary for
him to buy. And every day
in the year he has something
to sell that brings in cash.”

DEEP TILLING TESTS FOR
ROOT ROT
Some of the sites for deep
tilling experiments in McLen-
nan County, in an effort to
check cotton root rot, have
been selected by County Agent
J. B. Snider. The land is to
be cultivated to a depth of
from two to four feet, the land
selected to be soil where cot-
ton has failed extensively by
reason of root rot.
GRADE CROSSING
ACCIDENTS
There were eighteen acci-
dents at railroad grade cross-
ings in Texas during May, re-
sulting in three deaths and
twenty-three persons injured.
Of the accidents, sixteen hap-
pened to automobiles, causing
two deaths and twenty-two
injuries. The other two acci-
dents were to pedestrians, re-
sulting in one death.
DUST WITH AIRPLANES
Ward Mooring, a Brazos
bottom planter who lives near
Bryan, reported that four air-
planes have been operating on
the plantations in the bottoms
poisoning boll weevils and oth-
er cotton insects. The planes
use five pounds of poison to
the acre and it is put on in
the early morning while the
cotton is wet with dew.
EIGHTEEN THOUSAND
ACRE WHEAT FARM
The Tulia Herald says the
largest wheat farm in Texas
is in Swisher County. R. P.
Hawk, manager of Price
Brothers’ ranch, is preparing
to plant 18,000 acres in wheat.
Parker County will harvest
a big crop of peanuts. Some
farmers allow their hogs to
harvest the crop.

will ship young catfish, bream
and crappie. The bass ship-
ments already have been made
for this year. The bass spawn
earlier than the other species
and their young were large
enough to ship in the cool
weather of spring.

Little Lessons in Nature.
Many years before the white man
came to America the children of the red
man had a very delicious candy that was
highly prized.
In the spring of the year all of the
little Indian children of the North would
watch eagerly for the arrival of the first
crow. When the first crow arrived there
was great rejoicing in the little Indian
villages as they knew the sap in the ma-
ple trees had begun to flow. During the
late winter days the women of the tribe
had made many sap buckets from birch
bark. Some of them were to be used to
hang on the trees to catch the sap; oth-
ers to carry the sap to the boiling pot
and still others to store the sugar in.
Even the children had tiny play buckets
made from the birch bark, which were
decorated with colored porcupine quills.
Large quantities were stored, both the
finished sugar and the syrup. In the
winter time the children would delight
in pouring some of the syrup on the
snow and, when it would harden, eat it
as candy. Later they learned to shape a
birch bark similar to an ice cream cone
and then fill it with the sugar.
There is an old legend about a squaw
who forgot to watch a kettle of meat
she -was cooking, which was seasoned
with the maple sugar. The pot boiled
dry. She was very much frightened, as
her chief had just arrived home and was
demanding his dinner. She had to serve
the meat as it was. Imagine her sur-
prise when he grunted great satisfac-
tion over the palatability of the meat,
and not disgust, as she had expected.
This later became known as sugaring-
off, and was quite a festival among the
Indians.
Tree Seed Babies.
Would you be surprised to find a thou-
sand tiny baby birds in one nest? Of
course you would. But the birch tree
gives us such a surprise. Under a birch
tree you will find thousands of tiny
specks. Now, if you take a magnifying
glass, or reading glass, you will see each
little speck looks like a tiny baby bird
with its wings spread. When you are
looking at these baby seed birds you see
one that is a little larger and looks more
like a graceful fleur->de-lis than a bird;
this is the covering that protected the
seed birds. If you look closer at the tree
you might find one or two of the grace-
ful catkin nests from which the babies
have not flown. By pinching off the
scale at the tip you can see for yourself
how the little tree birdies fly from the
nest.
Sunshine Club News.
What a hot summer we have had!
Aunt Mary expected a decline in the in-
terest of the club—but this has not hap-
pened in the least. In July letters came
in every day, and such wonderful letters
they were. There were many new mem-
bers and Shut-Ins.
Here are some of the letters that were
received and greatly enjoyed:
Miss-Johnnie Cole, Goodnight, Texas, on
joining the club, says: “I think it is a wonder-
ful club. * * * I am willing to do all I can
to help the Shut-Ins for I know it must be
lonely to be Shut-In from the beautiful world
outside."
Estelle Ponder, Spur, Texas, writes about
helping her father plow. I think this is
kindly and helpful. I wonder how many
of my hoys and" girls help their parents in
the field ?
Susie Blagg, El Reno, Okla., writes to advise
of the death of Mrs. Bertha Enloe. We are
so sorry to hear about Mrs. Enloe’s death and
wish Susie would convey the message of sym-
pathy to her family from the Sunshine Club.
Mrs. J. J. Langford, Henrietta, Texas, writes
through her daughter: “No one knows (only
those who have my terrible affliction) how
much pleasure I get from your wonderful club."
(Mrs. Langford is blind.) She wishes to espe-
cially thank Hazel Fitch, Caldwell, Kan., for
her picture and kind letter. “She hasn’t failed
to send me a letter for several months,” adds
Mrs. Langford. Thanks are also extended to
Ruthie Worley of Paducah, Texas.
Maggie Lipscomb, Vinita, Okla: “Must write
and tell you how “very” much I enjoy the Sun-
shine Club. I think it is wonderful. * * * I
have received such cheerful and interesting
letters from Virga Reed, Mountain Park, Okla.
* * * With love and best wishes to you and
the club."
Ruby Lee Tipton, Post, Texas, is a new
member who has been reading about the club
for a year but only joined this month. We
are happy to have you Ruth and all the other
new members also.
As we must always have some of the hitter
with the sweet and some disappointment in
life, I want all of us to do our part to make
the club a success. Some of the Shut-Ins are
still neglecting to send in letters of thanks
for Sunshine they receive. One little girl
wrote she was so disappointed in not receiv'ng
a single reply to her letters sent to Shut Ins.
This same little girl expected a reply from her
letter to Aunt Mary. Little club members,
Aunt Mary would love to write to each and
every one of you each month, but with a club
membership of over four hundred members this
would be impossible. So please be content to
have a brief mention on the Boys and Girls
Page. This is the best I can do.
Claudine Gordon, Green, Texas, writes: “I
like the Boys and Girls Page more and more
each month. It makes me happy to send Sun-,
shine to others. * * * I think the Sunshine
Club is wonderful.”
Bernice Margaret Hurst, Angleton, Texas:
“I think the Sunshine Club is just lovely and,

Poems That Live.
The Earthquake.
Where’s a boy goin’,
An’ what’s he goin’ to do,
An’ how’s he goin’ to do it,
When the world bu’sts through ?
Ma says she can’t tell
What we’re cornin’to,
An’ Pop says he’s jes’ skeered
Plum black and blue.
S’pose we’d be playin’
Out in the street,
An’ the ground ud split up
’Bout forty feet—
Ma says she jes* knows
We’d tumble in;
An’ Pop says: “He bets you
Then we wouldn’t grin?"
S?pose we’d be ’tendin’
We had a show,
Down in the stable
Where we mustn’t go—
May says, the earthquake
Might make it fall;
An’ Pop says, “mor’n like
Swaller barn an’ all!”
Lordy! ef we both wuz \
Runnin’ ’way-from school,
Out in the shady woods
Where it’s all so cool—
Ma says a big tree
Might squash our heads;
An’ Pop says, “chop ’em out—
Both killed dead!"
The above poem, by James Whitcomb Riley,
is especially appropriate for a boy around ten
years of age.
James Whitcomb Riley was one of the most
beloved of our American poets. He was born
in Greenville, Ind., 1853, and died in Indianap-
olis, 1916. He was known as the “Hoosier
Poet."
though I have never sent in an application
blank, I have written several letters and I want
to join the club now." Try to limit your Sun-
shine to ten cents, if possible, Bernice.
Viola Wilder, Hammon, Okla., is anxious to
hear from the Shut-In to whom she sent Sun-
shine. Don’t forget, little members, sickness
and other reasons we do not know about often
prevent Shut-Ins from writing members in-
dividually.
Eugene Nelson Shepard, Canyon, Texas, is
a member of the Lone Star Scouts and Junior
Scouts of America and thinks the club will
be a medium through which he can do his
“daily good turn” rule. We are very happy
to have you, Eugene, and hope Jack Raney,
one of our first Shut-Ins, will write you, as
he is a Lone Star Scout, too.
Ruthie Worley, Paducah, Texas, sends a lit-
tle poem which she composed herself and I
think it expresses the ideal of the Sunshine
Club. Here it is:
“Sunshine in the light, Sunshine in the dark,
Always carry Sunshine in your heart.”
The only hews of the Sunshine Club is found
on the Boys and Girls Page in your home town
newspaper, Ruthie.

BLACKBERRIES ARE IM-
PORTANT IN TEXAS.
According to a bulletin is-
sued by the Missouri Pacific
Railroad, Smith County,
Texas, now claims the largest
acreage of blackberries re-
ported in America.
At Lindale the blackberry
pays operating expenses on
the cotton farm, taxes, buys
flivvers and is coming to be
one of the most profitable
crops in East Texas. The acre-
age around Lindale, which
seems to be the center of the
blackberry territory, is about
4,500 acres. Two varieties
are grown: The McDonald,
which ripens from May 15 to
June 1, and the Lawton, which
begins to ripen after the first
of June. Some of the growers
use an application of 200 to
600 pounds of ’8-6-4 commer-
cial fertilizer.
ECTOR COUNTY POTASH
TEST.
The first well to be drilled
in Texas in the government’s
program for development of
commercial potash deposits
will be in Ector county under
an award made to the Penn-
sylvania Drilling Company of
Pittsburgh by the United
States Bureau of Mines. The
well will be known as v No. 4
and the first to be drilled by
the government on privately
owned lands, the three other
wells being on government
land in New Mexico.
INSURANCE COST TEXAS
CITIZENS $127,545,018.
Additional data contained
in the annual statement of R,
L. Daniel, Insurance Commis-
sioner, shows that during 1926
Texas citizens paid $127,545,-
018 for insurance of all kinds
and received in losses $53,-
117,340. Figures on the books
of the Commissioner show
that all companies did a good
business.
Daniel’s statement also
shows that $2,427,224,685 in
life insurance was in force
during the year.
LOWER VALLEY FREE OF
CITRUS FRUIT FLY.
James Zetek, United States
entomologist in charge of
health work in the Panama
Canal, declared: “There is not
a citrus fly left in the Lower
‘Rio Grande Valley as far as I
can ascertain.
Zetek has just completed a
survey of the fly’s depreda-
tions. The State Agricultural
Department recently gave out
instructions for destruction of
fruit which might serve as
possible “hosts” for the pest.
Zetek urged destruction of
guavas and peaches as only
remaining host fruit.
Alarm over the menace was
widespread until it finally was
adjudged virtually checked.
PEACH CROP SMALL.
The East Texas peach crop
this year is small. Present in-
dications point to shipments
of 350 to 400 cars, as com-
pared with 1,072 cars in 1925
and 962 in 1926. Causes for
this sharp decline in produc-
tion include late winters, se-
vere hailstorms, lack of prop-
er care and pruning of the
the trees, and growing inter-
est in tomato and blackberry
crops.
PLANS TO FEED BIG CORN
CROP.
.If plans which the Farm
Association at Waco has in
mind are carried out, the Cen-
tral Texas corn crop will be
disposed of by increasing the
live stock supply, for the con-
sumption of corn, rather than
by the sale of the crop. Meth-
ods to be utilized in the dis-
tribution of the live stock and
the kind to be secured will be
decided by a committee of
which J. W. Mann of Robin-
son is chairman. It is believ-
ed that the corn crop this year
will be the largest in the his-
tory of Central Texas.
EXPORT WALNUT STUMPS
Walnut stumps, which for
years have been shipped from
the Texas ' hill country to
northern factories for use in
furniture veneering, now are
being exported to Europe, it1
has been learned at San An-
tonio. In recent years cherry
stumps also have been bought
by furniture factories for the
same purpose.
TEXAS ROADS LEAD IN
UNITED STATES.
Highway construction in
Texas this season will total

amount of any State in the

of Public Roads has compiled
figures showing that expendi-
ture on roads in the United
States this season will total
$1,120,000,000.,
