Hiey say you judge a tree by
its fruits. If so, by the same token
an institution may be judged by
the success of its graduates and
their rapid rise to prominence.
Graduates of the Tyler Commer-
cial College may be found in many
places of responsibilty all over the
Southwest. Now, graduates of this
well-known school seem to have
political aspirations. Hie chairman
of the very important Highway
Commission of Texas is a grad-
uate, as well as another member
of this very important Commission,
and the present Attorney General
of Texas, as well as the State
Bank Examiner, are graduates of
this well-known school. All of
these young men, after graduating
from this school worked their way
gradually up to their present im-
portant places, which only goes to
show what proper preparation,
grit, and a will to do, can accom-
plish.
Other young people may emulate
the example of these young men if
they have what it takes.
If you will enter the Tyler Com-
mercial College with pluck and a
determination, you, too, may make
your mark. It is easy if you want
to. This school will gladly mail
their catalog to those interested.

shortages, and made

The need for Victory Gardens
i is even greater in 1944. To work
out a program for the county, 3
Victory Garden Committees have
j been appointed. Representatives
from Civic clubs, women’s clubs,
and rural people are to serve on
the committees for Bowie, Nocona,
and Saint Jo areas. These com-
mittees will work in co-operation
with agricultural workers.
Poultry Reminders
Farmers are getting their 1944
crop of baby chicks now, so here
are a few reminders to get the
most from these chicks.
1. Buy no more baby chicks than
you have house room. Allow two
baby chicks per square foot of
house of space; i.e. if you have
a 10x10 brooder house, do not put
over 200 chicks in It.
2. The first three weeks have one
1 inch feeder hoppers, or 200 inches
j of single feeder space, After 3
1 weeks, increase the feeder space
to two inches per chick.
3. For the first three weeks, have
four quart-jar water fountains per
100 chicks.
4. Keep brooder temperature 95-
98 degrees the first week. Keep
chicks under or very near the
j. brooder for 4-5 days. After the
first week, reduce brooder house
| temperature five degrees per week.
! Watch the ventilation.
5. Give the chicks a handfull of
I grit per day for three weeks, then
keep it in the hopper all the
time.
6. Have a good chick starter in
hoppers at all times, and change
to growing mash at about 3 weeks
7. Separate roosters and pullets
at 6 weeks old.
8. Get chicks from good hatch-
! eries.
9. Keep baby chicks warm, dry,
and give them plenty of feed, fresh
clean water, for the fast growth,
; and less cost per chick.
File Income Report
Under the present Federal in-
; come tax law, farmers who re-
ceived more than $1200 income last
i year are required to file a return,
even though no tax is paid. The
■ filing of a tax return is rather
j complicated, so do not wait until
■ the last week to begin gathering
i your information.
A good, simple, set of farm ac-
: counts is certainly worth the time
j required when it comes time to file
i an income tax return.
New Patterns in 6, 9 and 12 foot widths have just
