Farm Equipment Must
Be Kept In Repair
The primary task immediately
ahead of the extension agricultural
engineers is to assist farmers in
keeping the machinery they possess
in condition to render good service at
least during 1943. This is the opinion
of iM. R. Bentley who fills that posi-
tion for the A. and M. College Exten-
sion Service. He adds that this may
be the engineers biggest job for the
duration of the war.
Bentley, who attended the recent
meeting at Memphis, Tenn., called
to plan extension agricultural engi-
neering work for the next year, re-
ports that the work in 1943 will em-
brace farm machinery recondition-
ing, conservation and use; mainte-
nance of farm structures and equip-
ment; household equipment; fire pre-
vention and control; and safety in
agriculture. As the major element of
the program, 40 per cent of the en-
gineers' time was suggested for
farm machinery reconditioning dur-
ing the coming crop year.
"The important phases of this pro-
gram,' Bentley explained, "involves
training of new operators, the 'share
use' of machinery, and the use of
home-made equipment. To keep old
machinery running at full capacity
will require an organized action pro-
gram on reccnuuion.ng, cure ana
maintenance of the machinery which
farmers have on hand."
He reminded tnat an order regu-
lating manufacture of all farm ma-
chinery and parts from November 1,
1942, through October 31, 1943, re-
stricts new equipment to 23 per cent
of the 1940 production, but fixes pro-
duction of repair parts to 137 per
cent of that year's output.
In view of this Bentley says, the
first order of business on farms dur-
ing the winter is to put machinery
into condition, make plans for maxi-
mum use either by 'share' or other
neighborhood cooperative method,
and leave nothing undone to have all
available equipment ready for ser-
! vice when crop time arrives next
1 spring.

preparation for A. and M. College

ing will cause many pepole to change
their food habus, and they may as
well change them for the better.
For example, to "stretch" their
I coffee allowance, many pepole may
i want to try their coffee the French

milk. This is a good beverage for
making coffee go farther and for
getting more milk into the diet. Miss

chocolate are flavors which blend
well together. So for a change she ference between victory and defeat,

Efficient use of practices to con-
serve future productivity of grass-
land highlights the 1943 AAA range
program in Teas.
Major changes in the program in-
clude additional production practices,
increases in rates of payment and
combination of all farmland and
rangeland under one program, How-
ard T. Kingsbery, state AAA com-
mitteeman and rancher from Santa
Anna, has announced.
Kingsbery pointed out that altho
payments for some practices would
be increased over last year's rate
that the total production allowance
for individual ranches would remain
approximately the same as under
previous programs.
Only two supplemental practices,
control of bitterweed, and elimina-
tion of other noxious plants, can be
carried out in connection wth defer-
red grazing, he said. Other practices
which formerly were incorporated
under the deferred grazing practice
now have been changed to a regular
practice basis and may be paid for
out of the regular production allow-
ance.
Sodding and seeding permanent
grasses have been increased to $4.50
and $4 per acre, respectively. Under
the 1942 program, established rates
were §3 for sodding and maximum of
§2 per acre for seeding.
According to Kingsbery, grasses
recommended for permanent seeding
practice include bermuda, Rhodes,
carpet, bluestem, blue grama, buffa-
lo, dallis and bermuda or carpet,
side-oats grama and native mixtures.
Other production practices for
which payments will be made are:
contour listing, furrowing and chisel-
ing, constructing drainage ditches,
spreader terraces, dams and reser-
voirs, concrete or rubble-masonry
dams or drops, enlarging rubble-ma-
sonry dams, drilling wells, develop-
ing springs or seeps, planting forest
trees, eliminating lechuguilla and
sagebrush, noxious underbrush, bush-
es and shrubs, and plowing fire-
guards.
Under the 1942 range program, ap-
proximately 68,455,583 acres cf
rangeland in Texas were covered by
range worksheets.

Americans in the post-war world
will be better fed than they are now,
for men in the armed forces are
learning to eat' and like nutritious
foods and childi'en are building bet-
ter food haBits in community school
! lunch rooms, Louise Bryant of Col-
lege Station predicted at a recent
meeting of the Texas State Nutrition
Committee in Dallas. Miss Bryant
j represents the Bureau of Home Eco-
nomics' on a four states post war
planning committee of the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture.
Since the government's food ra-
tioning and share-the-meat programs
are based on nutritional requirement
civilians as a whole will learn more
I about adequate diets as well as re-
' ceiving an equitable part of the na-
i tional food supply.
Other predictions on post war feed-
1 ing were given to the committee by
Victor H. Schoffelmayer, Dallas ag-
ricultural editor, who believes dehy-
drated soup mixtures will- be popular
after the war.
The State committee was told that
the American Red Cross now has
1,243 nuturition instructors in Texas.
Frances MacKinnon, nutrition direc-
tor for the Midwestern states, said
more than 10,000 Texas home-mak-
ers have been trained in Red Cross,
nutrition courses and are available
, for war services.
' Other speakers included Hazel
Bratley, regional nutritionists for the
Federal Security Agency, Dr. J. M.
Coleman of the State Health Depart-
ment and Grace I. Neely, Dallas, of
the Agricultural Marketing Adminis-
tration. Attendance of state, county-,,
and municipal workers at the meet-
ing, was nearly 100, according to Mil-
dred Horton, state chairman and

National Defense
School At Doches
: The following annoucement was re
ceived this week from J. D. McEnery, j
I manager of the U. S. Employment |
| Service at Nacogdoches: i
j "A National Defense School, Air-
I craft Sheet Metal, will open at Nac-
ogdoches shortly after January 1. It
is planned to operate this school on
24 hour day basis. While men are al-
so eligible to enter this school, it b
expected the classes will be 95 per
cent women, 18 years of age and up.
Active, able to do a day's work. Six
weeks' course, but it is possible to
complete course in less time. Women
completing this course can earn $3,-
000.00 to $5,000.00 during the next
two years and serve their country in
almost as important a capacity as
the soldier on the firing line. Hun-
dreds of our soldiers are dying daily
because we do not have enough
planes on the fighting fronts.

Arc Drafted ? ? ?
Fathers and mothers of our 18 and
19 year old boys are faced with the
reality of seeing their teen-age sons
go into battle to help save our coun-
try.
Now, from information which
seems reliable, it is almost certain
that woman power will soon be draft-
ed—but drafted for what? Will they
be trained as soldiers to go into bat-
tle with the men ?
No, it is reasonable to assume that,
if women 'are drafted they will be
placed in whatever position or place
for which they are best fitted. If a
girl 18, 19 or 20 years of age has no
special training, she will, no doubt,
hi placed in such a job to conform to
her limited ability.
Our school believes that, with the
demand by government and business
for well-trained women for office
work, a business college training now
offers the women who may be draft-
ed greater opportunities t;han any-
thing else. Our courses have been
condensed so that they may be finish-
ed in the shortest time possible.
The answer to the question, 'If Our
Girls Are Drafter" is this: Enroll in
the Federal Institute, at Tyler, as
soon as you can and get ready to fill
a position that will be dignified and
will pay you well.
The Rusk Cherokeean wll be glad
to give you further information
about our school, as well as assist
you in arranging for your Scholar-
ship.
