YOUR GOVERNMENT
and YOUR BANK
Your bank and your Government are working
hand-in-hand these days—in different ways.
Although many government regulations are
making it impossible to make certain types of
loans and otherwise hamper the workings of
a banking institution, that same government
has done much toward protection our deposi-
tors and those in thousands of banks through-
out the nation. So are we better protected in
a number of ways. On the other hand we are
doing our part through the sale of thousands
of dollars worth of War Bonds. We are work-
ing hand-in-hand with the war effort.

PECAN GROVE
EXPERTS TO BE
IN AREA SOON
Representatives of the Depart-
ment of Agriculture of the State
will visit Saint Jo inthe near fu-
ture for the purpose of advising
with local pecan growers and pros-
pective growers, the Tribune was
advised this week.
The representatives propose to
establish demonstration projects in
co-operation with any farmer,
agency, or land owner who wants
to increase the cash income from
his farm, and to demonstrate to
others what can be accomplished
They will supervise the develop-
ment of these projects to comple-
tion by periodical visits to the pro-
jects until they are completed, and
they will promote and encourage
the pecan industry in anyway pos-
sible.
Persons interested in the pro-
posed visit of the men are advised
to notify the Tribune in order that
the information may be passed on
to the state department.
In a letter of details to the Tri-
bune, it is pointed out that pecan
growers can enjoy two harvests
off the same land. The land can
be used as pasture as well as a
grove.
"We are in position to prove
our own claims beyond a pos-
sible doubt, that this development
is profitable by testmony of the
the farmers themselves, who have
developed pecan orchards and
pastures. We have a number of
authentic success stories to bear
out our claim," the letter states.
The pecan belt of Texas now has
thousands of acres of what is now
waste land, non revenue produc-
ing, that in 3 years time can be
made into the most profitable acres

Saint Jo and Montague County has been trying to do its part in
every war effort since Pearl Harbor. First, we gave our quota of man-
power, both in the armed service and in defense work; next we have been
holding up our part of the load in bond purchases; too, we have given our
best to the scrap rubber drive; and, during the recent Scarp Harvest we
"went over the top." All of this we have done in the truly American
spirit, because we truly believe that is the only way to do anything.
Our sleeves are up—to do our part in anything needed to be done
to quicken the end of this war. We have taken sugar rationing, tire ration-
ing. These conditions we have faced without a grumble, because we are
Americans, trying to win a peace we all love so well.
We have done all of these things in good faith of our Government
—but, please, Uncle Sam, don't discourage us in our efforts. Continue to
be as thoughtful and sound in your plans as history has proven you to be.
Don't bind the hands and legs of those at home who are striving to ser-
ve just as sincerely as those "down-under" and "across".
Don't, please don't, hamper us in our efforts to serve by rationing
the very industry which makes it possible for us to do our part. We don't
mind the personal inconvenience of gasoline rationing, if it were for a
sound cause, but can't deem gasoline rationing as necessary to the war
effort.
