Mung beans make a good green
manure crop for Bosque county since
they rarely ever fail to make vines
and seed even in the dryest summers
and can be turned under to enrich
the soil. Several farmers around
Cranfills Gap have been growing them
successfully for several years.

cation, French, government, history,

ish.

tained from T. C. U.
After his corn failed to germinate
in the ground, M. G. Knudson, of
Mustang, planted part of his field to
cotton. The cotton was placed with
mung beans after being destroyed by
grasshoppers. The mung beans are
making seed and good vines in spite
of the dry summer. Knudson thinks
more of them than he does of the
cotton and corn, since he can gather
the seed for future use in his field,
and can either cut the vines for feed
or turn them under to add the nitro-
gen to the soil that is contained in
their roots due to the nitrifying bac-
teria on the rots.

AM I sold on Prince Albert for home-rolled
A1 cigarettes? Ask me another! I like P. A.’s
fragrance. And I like the way P. A. rolls, it
rolls easy and stays put. But the big point in
P. A's favor is its marvelous taste. Cool as a
summons to serve on the jury. Sweet as the
news that you have been excused. Mild and
mellow beyond description, but with that full,
rich tobacco-body that satisfies your smoke-
hunger to the absolute limit. Try rolling ’em
with P. A. Try this tobacco in your pipe, also.
