Sjys Good Gardener
Keeps On Planting
'A good gardener is one who con-
tiuuf.s planting throughout the full
ntyng peiiod, according tc J. p. Ros-
JHorou^h, horticulturist for (the jA.
and M. College Extension Service.
He recognizes, for instance, that
•b<ftns being picked now won't last
tall summer and makes a second
planting. In Ithat w,ay he (assures
himseif a contiuation of green string
to^ns until dry, hot weather stops
production.
This is also true of tomatoes. In
most .paits of the state the' early
ckjjP will be picked in late June and
July. Thereafter summer tomatoes,
which are of a different type, must
be looked to foe the home table sup-
ply, Rosborough says. Varieties like
Pimer, iDanmark and ICherry, though
.small in size are dependabe for pro-
duction because' the plants are re-
sistant to heat and drought. Small
pants or the seed planted directly in
the row, is the method of starting the
second crop, but it is not advisable to
prune or stake the plants. During
t*; hot, dry weather a canopy of
foliage is needed to prevent the fruit
from blistering or becoming sun-
burned.
® , %Jreen pepper, okra, squash, butter
beans, eggplant, iblackeye, cream, or
^purple hull peas, and shallot onions
_ are hot weather , or heat-resistant,
* ■\^etables. Rosborough suggests that
every garden should have space fcv
them so that midsummer will not
find idle places in the Victory garden
i
^cordingly, if they are not already
growing they should be planted in
the near future.
Blackeye, cream, or purple hull
!$as can be planted now for late
June and July production. A'second
planting should be made in mid-June
for late July and early August pro-
duction. Allow three feet between
rows and six to 10 inches between
j<>ants for easier cultivation.
Don't run a Victory garden on half
twne, Rosborough counsels. Every
foot which can ibe utilized and every
-'plant which can be made to produce
is going to be needed to keep the na-
tion in food this year.
Typical Texas Family
Qn National Hookup I
The National Farm and Home Hour
soon will feature a Texas farm fam-
ily on a nation wide radio hookup.
This program will be carried by the
{Blue Network and will be presented
at 11:30 a. m. Monday, June 12, by
a nu.nber of Texas stations.
The program is one of a series de-
signed as a report to the nation on
farmers' plans for meeting the 1944
agricultural production goals. The
Texas Extension Service was request-
i'. -ed to select a typical Texas farm
family, to be interviewed by J. D.
Prewit, state director of Extenstion
terVice, and B. F. Vance state direc-
>r of the Ti'iple-A on the family's
plans for meeting the production
goals on their farm.
Ml-, and Mrs. W. H. Hopmann and
§!hcir son, Wilfied, of Fort Bend
■County were selected as- the repre-
sentative Texas farm iaaiily. i'his
'family has been one of the Exten-
sion Service's best cooperatofs in
Fort Bend County. Mr. llopmann op-
erates a 300 acre tarni. He is ohuir-
tuan of the Ag-licuitural Victory
©uncil, a men.u i' of the county
ing committee, the board of super-
visors for the local soil conservation
district and "takes an active part in
.other community activities.'
Mrs. Hopmann is secretary of the
Beasley Home Demonstration Club
and chairman of the community Ag-
ricultural 'Victory Council. All the
children in the Hopmann family are
or have been outstanding 4-H Club
workers. The eldest son, Urban, who
lis now a prisoner of war in Japan,
was a member of the first 4-H Club
organized in Fort Bend County, and
won national honors in 4-H Club con-
tests. Another son, Wilfred, who will
appear on the program, won a state
wide cotton improvement contest for
Texas 4-'H Club boys in 1940 and
represented Texas in the National
•4-JH ILivestock Judging Contest the
same year.
Nelda,( the only girl in the family,
served as secretary of the Beasley
girls 4-H Club for five years. She
now is married and lives in San An-
tonio. At the 1941 Fort Bend County
iDairy Day (she was selected "the
most outstanding farmer's daughter
in Texas." The Hopmanns have two
other sons, Elton, who is also in the
armed services, and Clarence, who is
still active in his 4-H Club work.
Advisory Committees I
To Aid War Veterans
Local advisory committees to as-
sist returning war veterans with the
purchase or lease of farms soon will
ibe set up throughout Texas under a
program advanced by the Texas A.
and M. College Extension Service.
There is no need to wait until the
post war era to help discharged men
with this or other problems, J. L>
Prewit, acting Extension director has
notified county Extension workers.
He cited reports that 100,000 men
are being released each month from
the armed forces.
County agricultural Victory Coun-
cils, re-organized for war work in
1942, will form the nucleus for these
committees, and other agercies in
the counties will be asked to assist,
Mr. Prewit said. The advisory groups
can render invaluable assistance in
seeing that these men are adequately
informed on productive values, rental
agreements, credit, and other factors
involved in the purchase or leasing
of a farm or ranch.
Sample surveys made among cer-
tain units in the armed forces indi-
cate that many fighting men hope to
.buy farms with their mustering out
pay. And they will need protection
from land prices which are above
cost of production, Prewit believes.
He expects local farm .and ranch
people will welcome the opportunity
to give this type of volunteer service
since practically every family has
contributed seme member to the arm-
ed forces. Gaining- some experience
in helping the small numbers of vet-
erans returning now will enable these
local committees to be prepared for
large scale demobilization later.
Piewit points out that this type
of assistance does not differ in char-
acter from that which the Extension
Service customarily provides.
Sealed bids addressed to Mr. Weav-
er H. Bakei, Chairman, State Board
of Control, Austin, Texas, will be re-
ceived in the office of the Board of
Control until 10:00 a. m., .Jjne 10.

No — THAT'S NOT the number of a
Southern Pacific locomotive — tho' it could
be. It's the number of communities served
directly by SOUTHERN PACIFIC LINES'
rails in 89 counties in Texas and 21 parishes
in Louisiana.

We prefer to call them "communities" instead $
of stations, towns, or cities because there is a
close community of interest between our busi-
ness of providing railroad transportation and
the needs of the people who live and carry
on thei# business activities in these 98$
locations. jfl
Adequate transportation is vital to every com- ;
munity, large or small. Experience shows that
substantial industrial development and growth^
is dependent to a large extent upon good rait
transportation; hence we feel that "SP" is an
important part of your community's business
life and is likely to be even more important
as time goes on.
