ANNOUNCES FOR
RE-ELECTION
“The people of Smith county have,
in the past, honored me by election
to the office of Clerk of the District

rot to interfere with the efficiency of

Clerk of Smith county, Texas.
“My only promise is that in the
event you again honor me by elect-

sition, I shall endeavor in the future,
as in the past, to conduct the affairs
of the office fairly, courteously, ef-
ficiently, and economically.
“In making my campaign for re-

I respectfully solicit your vote and
•support.

that any assistance given or ex-
tended will have my genuine and
sincere appreciation.”

HEART TO HEART
Talk* About Fertilizer
Stone L. Hargrove
“Well, I’m going to fertilize my
cotton this year,” said the man from
near Winona. “The government has
my acreage cut down so that I won't
go to the gin much if I don’t. I fig-
ure it ought to pay. A pound of fer-
tilizer will make an extra pound of
seed cotton any year and some years
it will do much better than that.”
“I'm going to fertilize too,” said the
man from Noonday. “And I am go-
ing to use Heart Brand 6-8-4. I
have tried them all and Heart Brand
gives the best results. I have driven
into Tyler to get Heart Brand rather
than use another brand which was
nearby.”
matoes. Said Mr. Green: “The cold
weather, rains, and high winds have
made tomatoes look rather sickly.
But this 10-0-10 will bring them out
iii a hurry. It is the best side dress-
ing for tomatoes I have ever used.”

“I like Heart Brand too,” spoke up
another man who overheard No. 2
above. “And my wife wouldn’t let
me buy any other kind of fertilizer.
She makes lots of things out of those
good cotton bags the Heart Brand
Fertilizer is packed in. See this shirt
I’m wearing. My wife made it from
two of those fertilizer bags and dyed
it with hickory nut hull dye. It looks
better and wears better than lots
of khaki shirts you could buy in
a store.”

thing before long.

POTASH
hen cotton begins to
rust, profits begin to
go. Save those profits
by using from 50-100 lbs. of mu-
riate of potash per acre in a nitro-
gen-potash top-dresser applied

Experiments have shown that
where potash was applied in
the top-dresser the value of
the crop was increased $15
to $25 per acre
by larger yields,
better grade, and
longer staple.
FIRE THREAT LURKS IN
GASOLINE AND KEROSENE
College Station. — Almost one-
fourth, or 121,000 of Texas’ farm
families, have no milk cows, accord-
ing to E. R. Eudaly, dairyman of
the Texas A.&M. College extension
service.
This means, the dairyman pointed
out, that Texas needs an additional
quarter million dairy cows if farm
families are to have sufficient milk
for home needs, and also that dairy
production for home use can expand
considerably in Texas and in the
South in general without competing
with commercial dairy areas.
Eudaly based his statement on cen-
sus figures and estimates of the bu-
reau of agricultrual economics which
show that 24.2 percent of Texas farm
families do not have a milk cow and
that over the 12 Southern states as
a whole, only 71 percent of the fam-
ilies keep cows for milk.
There is an average of only 2 milk
cows per farm over the cotton belt
a whole as compared to an aver-
age of nearly 4 for all farms in the
United States and more than 10 per
family in Wisconsin. Texas, with an
average of 3.2 cows per farm, leads
all cotton belt states except Okla-
homa in this respect.
1 he dairyman does not believe that
AAA programs tend to force cotton
farmers into dairy cows in the 12
principal cotton producing centers.
“There were 5,562,000 dairy cows in
the 12 principal cotton producing
states in 1932, before the AAA,” he
said. “On January 1, 1937, there was
5,896,000, an increase of 334,000 milk
cows, 'l his is an average increase of
30,000 dairy cows per state, or an
average increase per state ot 5,000
for each year siijce the AAA came
into existance.
“Nutrition specialists of the exten-
sion service tells me that the aver-
age farm family of five needs two
good milk cows for home use. Thus
in Texas alone we could add 242,000
dairy cows without increasing our
commercial output to any notieable
extent.”
Gasoline and kerosene fires cause
a loss of approximately $6,000,000
a year on the farms of the United
States, according to the bureau of
chemistry and soils of the United
States department of agriculture.
They are sixth among the causes of
farm fires and are responsible for
5 to 7 percent of the total loss each
year.
Farmers bulletin 1678, “Safe Use
and Storage of Gasoline and Kero-
sene on the Farm,” recently revised,
suggests precautions to be observed
and gives information on extinguish-
ing gasoline and kerosene fires.
Single copies may be obtained from
the United States department of ag-
riculture, Washington. D. C.
Ignorance and disregard of the
explosion hazard of gasoline and
kerosene are responsible for most of
these fires, says the bulletin. The
vapor of gasoline is so highly ex-
plosive that it has been called “liquid
dynamite.” It is dangerous to use
gasoline for dry cleaning in the home.
It may explode from even a tiny
spark of static electricty produced
by rubbing the clothing being clean-
ed. Although not so inflammable as
gasoline, kerosene also gives off va-
pors which may be easily ignited.
Neither should be used to start a
fire in the house.

The use of potash to control rust and reduce wilt
also produces larger bolls that open normally and
make the crop easier to pick, thus reducing harvest-
ing costs and increasing profits.
Consult your county agent or experiment station
about the fertility of your soil. If you did not apply
enough potash at planting time to control rust
and reduce wilt, see your fertilizer dealer or manu-
facturer about adding
1 11 the equivalent
cooking.
