CULTIVATION OF CORN
How often should a farmer
cultivate his corn? Should
he go through it after each
rain to keep up a mulch?
Should he cultivate a certain
number of times whether it
rains or not? Or should he
strive only to keep down
weeds? With many farmers
these questions are still de-
batable, but the United States
Department of Agriculture
has taken the viewpoint that
weed control is the most im-
portant function of cultiva-
tion.
"The principal object in
cultivating corn is to control
the weeds," the department
expert claims. It is contend-
ed cultivation sometimes has
other advantages, but these
will be provided automatical-
ly by cultivation adequate for
weed control. Cultivation
should be as shallow and in-
frequent as will control weeds,
it is said. Additional culti-
vation is a waste of time and
energy. The department has
issued a bulletin free for the
asking, which should prove
particularly helpful to ex-
perienced corn growers inter-
ested in checking up and im-
proving their methods. It
emphasizes that corn is a crop
for good lands of high fer-
tility. If there is a deficiency
of plant food in the soil, it is
better to grow hay or pasture
crops; in these crops the en-
tire plant is of value and if
it makes only half growth the
farmer still gets half a crop.
Corn on poor land, is apt to
produce half grown plants
or fail to produce grain of con-
sequence.
TWO KINDS OF SHERIFFS
East Texas boasts of the
oldest and the youngest
sheriff in the State. One is
Lee Boyd, 61, a grandfather,
recently appointed for Ander-
son county. The other is
Jesse Sweeten, 26, of Hender-
son county. Sheriff Boyd, a
wealthy ranch owner in Tex-
as and New Mexico, returns
to law enforcement ranks af-
ter 20 years. He was elect-
ed sheriff of Anderson coun-
ty in 1910, and served four
years. He was appointed re-
cently to fill the unexpired
term of Sheriff D. E. McLean,
deceased. Sheriff Sweeten is
a newly-wed.
OLD CARRIER RETIRES
W. T. (Chief) Tarver, who
has carried the mail between
the postoffice and the rail-
road station at Kerrville for
more than 33 years, and who,
in doing so, has traveled a
distance that would reach
more than around the globe
without leaving city streets,
retired on January 1, 1934.
He always used a horse drawn
vehicle. His two faithful
horses retired with him. A
corporation underbid Mr.
Tarver on the mail contract
recently.
FREAK HUNTING EX-
PERIENCES
Roping eagles is not a
scheduled event on West Tex-
as rodoes, and, in" fact, many
will say the feat is impossible,
but Charley Evans exhibited
a live eagle in San Angelo
which he says he lassoed in
Runnels county. The bird
measured 88 inches from
wingtip to wingtip. Mr. Evan&
was riding in a pasture when he
saw two eagles on the ground.
He was within 100 feet of
them when they started rising.
Their "take off" was slow,
and Mr. Evans got his rope on
one of them before it was too
high. The other bird sailed
away.
Charles Webster, cowboy on
the Merrill ranch, near Fort
Davis, was too busy to do any
regular hunting during the
season. He went out the last
day without a gun and roped
a 11-point buck. Then he
killed the animal with his
pocket knife.
Paul Bishop, a Longview
hunter, brought back a Mexi-
can lion instead of a deer. He
said that while hunting with
friends in McMullen county,
near the Mexican border, he
saw the lion chasing a deer.
Two shots changed the mind
of the animal, for it charged
in the direction of Mr. Bishop.
It required two more shots to
kill the lion, which measured
six feet four inches from tip
of nose to tip of tail, and
weighed 150 pounds.
Harry Cowden, 11, son of
Mr. and Mrs. Gene Cowden,
of the Hill Country range
near Kerrville, as far as
known, holds the 1933 record
for the biggest set of antlers.
The buck he shot on his fa-
ther's ranch had 23 points.
L. W. McCoy, a Kerrville
druggist, claims the record of
getting two turkey gobblers
with one shot. Just as he
fired at one turkey on the
Hugo Real ranch, another
bird walked into line of the
shot, and the same bullet kill-
ed both gobblers.
A 22-point buck declared to
be the biggest from stand-
point of weight killed in the
Kerrville vicinity this season,
was brought down by Bailey
Henderson of Duval county,
on the Hughes ranch, 35 miles
west of Kerrville. The buck,
which had been seen on the
range for 10 years, weighed
173 pounds, dressed.
ARE PESTS TO PECANS
West Texas pecan growers
have recommended to govern-
ment officials the use of re-
lief money for the extermina-
tion of ravens and crows in
sections where pecan nuts are
grown. It is estimated that
in the Brady district the loss
to growers through the ac-
tivities of these birds this sea
son was about 25 per cent of
the prospective crop. At a re
cent meeting of pecan grow-
ers one speaker said that
ravens and crows destroy 3,
500,000 pounds of nuts an-
nually in Texas and Okla.
WOMEN OPERATE RURAL
MARKET
The Anderson County Rural
Market Association is compos-
ed entirely of women. It was
organized in December, 1930.
Every agricultural communi-
ty in the county is represent-
ed in the market. The associ-
ation holds two sales a week,
offering only member-grown
products. Mrs. Jesse Wood-
ard of Four Pines, is presi-
dent; Mrs. J. K. Smith, Swan
son Hill, vice president, and
Mrs. T. L. Thomas, Four
Pines, treasurer.
And Simon Peter answered
and said, Thou are the Christ,
the Son of the Living God.

EFFICIENCY IN THE HOME
One of the most frequent questions I am
asked by housewives is: "How can 1 run my
household more efficiently?" If the large
businesses ot' our country were managed as
haphazardly as the average household wo
wouldn't have had a depression. We would
have bad a bankrupt country many, many
years ago.
It is a terrible indictment to make, but nev-
er-the-less it is true, the average woman
(home-maker) spends more time on her com-
plexion than she does studying proper diet
(that really makes the finest complexion) and
spends more time worrying about having tho
latest style dress than she does on balancing
the family budget. Now, mind you, I didn't
say EVERY woman does this. I know they
don't, and I am sure that you will find the
homes of those who are diligent better homes.
However, all of us can stand some improve-
ment. Each of us can learn new things.
The depression has taught us many things
of great value, if we will but heed the lesson.
First, it has taught us the true value of
things. We have learned who are our true
and honest friends, those who like us because
we are US and not because of what we had.
Wasn't that something worth finding out? I
think it was. I, for one, am glad 1 know.
Then, we have found the true worth of our
family. We had to spend a few evenings with
them, and found they weren't bad folks after
all. Now, last of all, we have learned that
there is a difference in products. When money
was coming easy we just bought the first
thing that came to hand. If it wasn't good
we just threw it away and bought another.
Today we can't do that. My, but don't we
have to figure and figure to make those
pennies go a long ways. Every item must
count. Every item must be worth its cost.
This is the big question so many women write
me about: "How can I know the worth of an
article before 1 try it?" That is a big ques-
tion, and of course I'm not egotistical or fool-
ish enough to tell you: "Oh! I can give you
a fool-proof recipe." Why can't I? That is
simple. First, what pleases me might not
please you. But there is one thing that I can
tell you, and help you with, and that is to find
out and set forth the high point of things you
use most often in everyday life. Then you
make the choice. I will act as a sample sales-
man, and show you the samples, telling you
the merits and faults, if I know them, and
YOU make the choice. So I am going to
make a deep study and survey of a number of
things that are used in the average family
daily, and each month on this page I am go-
ing to tell you about borne of the places I am
going to visit and the interesting things I
have learned.
However, you and I can now chat over a
number of things; both of us fun visit
frequently and yet stay at home. 1 nere are
very few homes today that do rx>t have the
privilege of magazines and newspapers. All
too frequently we miss the best and most im-
portant parts of the paper. How many of
you, when you get your paper, read the front
page (murders, accidents, etc.), then turn to
the comics, and perhaps a favorite continued
story? Isn't that the extent of most of our
reading? But do you know there is some-
thing in that paper that will mean more,
MUCH more to the health, wealth and happi-
ness of your family? I know you will be
surprised when I tell you what it is. At first,

OUTER SKIN
t,"' v . f*
MRS. GEORGE MASON, JR.,
■kin Pttnd'i Two-Skin out.
The Answer lies in the Strange Fact that
every Human Being has TWO SKINS
DO YOU KNOW that wrinkles
start in your Under Skin be-
fore they show in your Outer Skin?
When the tiny glands in your Under
Skin fail to pour out necessary beau-
ty oils, this skin shrinks. The Outer
Skin must then form folds and
creases to fit the Under Skin.
Use Oil Cream forth* Under Skin—
To check these wrinkles you mutt use
an oil cream that sinks way down.
Pond's Cold Cream does this. It
cleanses thoroughly and - brings the
starvinf tissues just the oils they need.
Lines and creases smooth out magi-
cally.
The Outer Skin needs a Creaseleis
Cream—This slrin is very different. 11
contains active moisture
cells to counteract dryness.
Exposure extracts this
moisture, then dryness and
coarseness result. Pond's
Vanishing Cream contains
a wonderful substance
which checks this loss of
moisture —actually restores it —re-
moves roughness, chapping, instantly.
Try it as a powder base. You will be
amazed at the length of time your
make-up stays on—In perfect condi-
tion.
Try this Simple TWO-Skin
Treatment Dally
1. Every night cleanse and firm your
Under Skin with Pond's Cold Cream.
Wipe off—repeat, patting vigorously.
2. Smooth your Outer Skin with Pond's
VanishingCream. Leave it on all night.
Roughnesses vanish by morning.
3. Every morning and during the
day, another Cold Cream cleansing.
Then Pond's Vanishing Cream. How
clear, natural your make-up looks.
Begin this simple two-
skin treatment at once.
See how soft and smooth
Pond's Two Creams will
make your skin. How fine
textured and radi-
antly fresh 1

some of you will merely shrug your shoulders
and say some complimentary (?) remark
like this: "Oh, she's goofy," or words to that
cffect.. But Jo you know that the space de-
voted to advertisements in your paper are
worth more to you if used intelligently than
any other pages? Just reason it out for
yourself. What is the first duty of a mother
and wife to her family? To keep them well
by feeding them properly. How can you do
this? It is not possible for all of us to go
to a school on proper dieting. We haven't the
time or the money. But we can feed our
family properly with the same amount of
money we spend on improper foods, if we
study their needs. How many of you say:
"Oh, what shall we have for dinner? I'm just
Imrned out on cooking?" Let me give you
a suggestion. Pick up your home paper, look
over the grocery advertisements. Get h pencil
and paper, write down the things you would
like to nave. Write the prices after each item
- then compare them. I'll guarantee that
twtnfy minutes put in earnest study of gro-
cery ads will whet the most jaded appetite.
And you'll be surprised at the difference in
price arid quality. We all get in a mental rut.
We all need a jolt once in a while. Then to
bring your selection down to a fine point, you
are puzzled as to the right selection between
two different brands of the same product. This
reminds me of an experience I had in a store.
I had ordered an article, calling for a certain
well-known brand. It happened that the mer-
chant didn't carry that brand. He tried to
sell me something else, which he said "was
just as good." However, I refused the brand,
and he asked me: "Why do you demand the
other brand?" I told him that I knew an ar-
ticle that was as well advertised as the brand I
had called for was good. Why did it have
to bo good, he wanted to know. First of all,
advertising is a heavy expense to any concern,
and when they make you their first sale it
has to be GOOD or you won't buy again. It
is not the first sale they make to you that
pays even a small part of their expense. They
must bo able to sell you over and over again
to make advertising and their product pay.
So you see why a well advertised article must
lie better than one that is not. The one that
is not advertised can often be sold for less.
But havn't you found that it is NOT always
the one that is cheapest in the beginning that
is cheapest in the end? We as housekeepers,
must get the most for our dollars. We can't
go away to school, so wo are going to go to
school in our own home. By studying WHAT
to look for in good articles, and then finding
that article at the best price, we hope by the
end of the year to have our G. H. (Good House-
e ye
keepers) degree.

tract. Add more flour if necessary.
Dough should be just stiff enough

chocolate.
Stuffed Hamburger Roast
Trim off fat tissue and remove
bone from 2 pounds of steak. Pass
through a meat grinder twice with
one green pepper and one medium
sized onion. Cover one cup dry
bread crumbs with cold water, let
stand one hour. Drain and wring
dry in a clean tea towel; season
and prepare as for fowl dressing.
Season meat to taste with salt and
pepper (if desired), add the white
of one egg, and with the hands
mix the ingredients thoroughly.
Pat mixture out in an oval sheet
and lay bread dressing in center,
then gradually fold meat over
stuffing and press into an oblong
shape. Fry out marrow from bone
and meat fat in a frying pan, add
4 tablespoons shortening, place
meat in pan and roast in a medium
hot oven one hour. Baste meat
frequently with 1/3 cup butter or
shortening melted in 2/3 cup hot
water, afterwards with drippings
in the pan. It is important to
baste often. Remove to serving
platter and surround with tomato
or brown sauce. This is delicious.
Cream of Corn Soup
One can corn chopped very fine,
add one pint boiling water and
cook slowly 20 minutes. Scald one
slice onion with one pint milk in
double boiler. Remove onion and
add milk to corn, add 2 tablespoons
sugar. Melt two tablespoons but-
ter in saucepan, add 2 tablespoons
flour and stir to a smooth paste.
Add enough of the first mixture
to the flour and butter so that it
will pour easily. Combine flour
mixture with the first mixture, add
salt and season to taste. Beat
thoroughly with a wire whip. Keep
over hot water until ready to serve.
Apricot Meringue
Cook until tender enough dried
apricots to make one cup pulp af-
ter apricots arc drained and press-
ed through a sieve. Add one table-
spoon orange juice and a little of
the grated rind, add powdered
sugar to sweeten to taste. Beat
the whites of three eggs until stiff
and dry, then fold them slowly into
the apricot mixture. This makes
a delicious meringue for mince,
cherry or sweetpotatoe pie.
Note: Next month 1 am going
to give you my famous recipe for
making sweetpotatoe pie. Boys
and girls, is it good. Ask those
who have eaten it. Then take the
recipe I will send and try it for

WARNING AGAINST
WRONG CLAIMS
A warning to all persons
not to make improper claims
for exemption of processing
taxes on wheat, corn or other
commodities subject to tax
under the Agricultural Ad-
justment Act, has been issued
by Guy T. Helvering, com-
missioner of internal revenue
at Washington. The penalty^
upon conviction, for prepar-
ing or assisting in the prepara-
tion of a false, or fradulent re-
turn, affidavit, claim or docvi^-
ment in connection with any
matter arising under the iti-
teral revenue laws, is a fine
of not more than $10,000, or
imprisonment of not more
than five years, or both.
Persons who sign affidavits
to the effect that they are the
producers of wheat, corn or
other commodities subject to
the processing tax, when such
is not the case, to evade pay-
ment of the processing tax
are liable to prosecution.
Actual producers who take
wheat, corn or other commodi-
ties subject to the possessing
tax to the mills or factories
to be manufactured into flour,
meal or other products, and
who endeavor to escape tfce
processing tax by signing an
affidavit that the product is
for consumption by their own
family, employes or house-
hold, but who in fact sell or
exchange it for groceries or
other merchandise, are sub-
ject to prosecution. In such
cases storekeepers who accept
from the producer flour, meal
or other commodity with re-
spect to which the processing
tax has not been paid, are
subject to prosecution for con-
spiring with the producer to
evade the processing tax.
