THE MOST PROFITLESS thing
.to manufacture is excuses.
TEXAS BAKERS, assembled in
* 39th annual convention at
Houston recently, were told by
their president at the opening ses-
sion, that mounting taxes were
one of the great problems bakers
—face. In fact, he stated that if
there were a stamp for every di-
rect and indirect tax on a loaf of
bread, wrappers would not be need-
ed.
* * *
Said he:
“There are fifty-eight taxes, di-
rect and indirect, on every loaf
of bread in Texas, and if bread
is going to continue to be the
poor man’s food, we must become
conscious of the problem that
faces all businessmen today —
increasing taxes.”
What is true about bread, is true
about virtually every other food
commodity, and no less every ar-
ticle of wear or service in the
home, the shop, the factory, on
the farm and in every walk in life.
Some day a halt will probably be
called ... but that day is yet a-
far off.

NEXT COMES THE past-presi-

niture Association with a timely
warning. Addressing the conven-
tion of the association in San An-
tonio, R. Don Herod of Houston
said: Texas is flooded with furni-
ture “bootleggers,” and he cited
instances in which Texas custom-
ers have been victimized by “fly-
by-night" dealers. This type of
dealer not only cheats the cus-

Mrs. Mattie Gossett of Milburn,
who was struck by lightning at her
home recently, is showing contin-
ued improvement, following the
amputation of one of her toes.
Mrs. Gossett suffered * badly
lacerated foot, but she feels she’s

Mrs. Gossett and her son, Rich-

Patronize your own home-town
dealer or dealers; men whom you
have known for years, in whom
you may place absolute confidence.
You know they will be here to
make good all representations and
promises. Moreover, you know that
they are helping build the town
and community, give freely of
their personal services in all
worthwhile local endeavors, and
stand ready to co-operate with
responsible citizens in every way
possible.
Advertising in newspapers was urg-
ed by Herod as one of the best
methods for the dealers to pro-
tect themselves. The newspapers,
too, work hand-in-hand with all
worthwhile local enterprises. The
statements which appear in black
and white in the local newspaper
over the dealers' signatures, may
be relied upon. There IS Truth
in advertising!
TF YOU ARE always in time for
your work, you are apt to be
in time for promotion. The late
romers usually get left.
THERE’S A STORY going the
rounds about an office boy in
a lawyer’s office. Of course, it
wasn’t a Brady boy, nor waa it a
local lawyer . . . , but here’s the
story: “A well-known attorney
was always lecturing his office
boy, whether he needed it or not.
One day he chanced to overhear
the following conversation be-
tween the boy and the one em-
ployed next door. “How much does
your chief pay you?” asked the
latter. “I get $1500 a year. Five
dollars a week in cash and the rest
in legal advice". .

will be broken next year in the
major livestock shows of Texas.
These boys will probably feed out
about 40 calves, according to pres-
ent plans, R. F. McSwain, county
agent, said.
Twenty-five of the calves, all of
them Herefords except two, which
are Aberdeen-Angus, have already
been placed in the feed pens, with
the others to go therein within the
next few days. Twelve of the boys
are feeding calves for the first
time, seven of them fed the past
year, and two fed year-before-
last.
The young feeders and the num-
ber of calves they have in the feed

them in the pen shortly are: Alvin

The foregoing, it occurs to ua,

county tax rate shows an increase
of 10c over the 1932 rate, this in-
crease was authorized by a vote of
the electorate, largely, if not alto-

ation of nearly • quarter-million
dollars proves beyond peradven-
ture that McCulloch is definite-
ly making progress, while ths de-
crease of better than $68,000 in
indebtedness, due to liquidations
of some $20,000 worth of court-
house bonds, and as well highway
bonds and road and bridge war-
rants, also indicates, plain as the
nose on your face, that McCul-
loch has made progress in the six-
years towards reduction of her
outstanding obligations. Small won-
der, then, that McCulloch is listed
among the most progressive, pros-
perous and substantial counties in
the Lone Star State.

GOOD ADVICE is cheap! It is to
U be found on every hand. In
road signs; in the accidents and
misfortunes that befall our fellow
man; in the stories of success-
and no less of failure- in stories;
in sermons; in books; in pictures,
in the courts of the land. And the
sign which an observing citizen
wants erected at the Ladonia city
limits, according to the Ladonia
News, has merit. It would read:
“Slow—No Hospital.” State Press
in the Dallas News puts the same
good advice in reverse by suggest-
ERR*-
duced in Congress for Flood con-
trol in this district, and if the
Brady project is completed in
time it will be added to the bill as
an amendment and acted upon by
by Congress, according to infor-
mation received here.
The engineers have been core-
drilling in thia vicinity this week.
THIS MUST BE IT— - -
Million Dollar Rain Is
Falling In McCulloch
Every indication points to the
long-looked for “Million Dollar”
rain in McCulloch. With the skies
completely overcast practically
throughout the day, a slow-falling
rain began shortly before noon,
and has continued at inter-
vals throughout the afternoon.
After five o’clock Thursday even-
ing another good shower was fall-
ing. Reports from over the county
indicate that the moisture is gen-
eral thruout this section.
With a good bottom season, rain
to thoroly soak the top surface of
the earth has been the great need
in recent weeks. Should Thursday
afternoon’s rainfall continue thru-
out the night and today, it will
place McCulloch farm crops in
fine shape, and will be of inestima-
Me benefit to pasture lands, as
well.

Harlow Hummel left Monday for
Dallas on a business visit.
He was short, fat, exceedingly
well-groomed, slightly foreign in
appearance and with just a trace
of foreign accent when ,he spoke.
He exuded good nature from every
pore, and gave the impression of
being the soul of generosity, which
effect was heightened both by his
liberal offers and his somewhat
off-hand display of a roll of U.
S. currency big enough, as the
saying goes, to choke a mule.
He inquired as to advertising rate
on a quarter-page ad to run every
week over a 12-month period, and
appeared not only surprised that
the rate was so low, but pleased
with the thought that at so small
an expenditure, he could be as-
sured of so great a benefit.
Then he confided his business.
He was buying old paper and junk.
