Participation In
AAA Program
Hits New Record
College Station, June 6.—With
an estimated 40,000,000 acres
of cropland and 85,000,000 acres
of rangeland signed up under
the AAA for 1940, officials here
believe participation in the pro-
gram will be the largest of any
year since the program be-
gan.
Latest reports indicate that
more than 414,000 Texas farms
will operate under the Agri-
cultural Conservation Program
in 1940, an increase over the
1939 participation of nearly 4,-
000 while approximately 1,200
additional ranches will practice
range improvement measures
under the Range Conservation
Program, bringing the number
of ranches cooperating to 26,-
000.
To these farmers and ranch-
men will go the greater portion
of the $89,000,000 available to
Texas for full participation in
the AAA program, George Slau-
ghter, chairman of the state
committee, pointed out. Full
cooperation requires planting
within soil-depleting acreage al-
lotments and earning the max
imum available for soil-build-
ing and range-improvement
work by adopting specific con-
servation practices.
In the range program the
entire payment is made for
conservation work done, while
in the farm program part of
the payment is made for soil-
building work and part for
taking a portion of the crop-
land out of soil-depleting crops.

West Texas Hi way
80 Group Seeks
Road Improvement
Sweetwater, June 6.—Members
of the executive committee of
the U. S. Highway Association "
of West Texas in session at
Big Spring Thursday, May 30,
voted unanimously to sponsor
a delegation composed of citi-
zens and tax payers from towns
along the U. S. Highway 80
from Fort Worth to El Paso
to appear before the Texas
Highway Commission late in
June.
The association was organized
in January for the purpose of
securing the modernization of"
Highway 80 in an effort to
hold continental tourist traffic
which it has been losing stead-
ily on account of the obsoles-
cence of the road, heavy com-
mercial traffic, and the building
of more modern highways al-
most parellelling it.

IT IS OWNED AND OPERATED BY HOME PEOPLE.
It employs Home People and it protects Home People.
It writes protection without loopholes and it pays its claims in FULL.
It is under the supervision of the Insurance Commission of Texas, and your dues will never
be raised except by their command.
It deposits its funds in home banks and you make your settlement face to face.
If you live in our trade territory why carry protection with strangers? People you never ^
saw and perhaps will never see.
WHEN WE STARTED
When we started they said we could not bury a mule, but in a little less than two years we
have had the losses indicated below. Every claim has been settled in full. Not one has
been discounted one penny. Some of the families are your neighbors. We refer you to them.
