SMITH CO. GIRLS WIN
SILVER CUP AND CASH
4-H Team Scores Highest at Dis-
trict Short Course; Silver Tro-
phy and $10.00 Awards
- Hurrah again for Smith county
4-H club girls. They won highest
scores at the District Short Course
held Monday and Tuesday at Com-
merce where hundreds of 4-H club
boys and girls were assembled in
studying and in testing their knowl-
edge by various kinds of try-outs
and contests. Miss Shultz has a num-
ber of girls throughout the county
engaged in poultry projects — arid
some of these girls “know their
chickens” just -like others of her
girls who, for example, are engag-
ed in garden projects “know their
onions” and other garden truck.
Bright and early Monday morning
Miss Shultz gathered into her car
Misses Helen Gilley, Louise Payne
and Jessie Russell, Her leading poul-
try girls from the Whitehouse 4-H
club, and went with them to the Dis-
trict Short Course held at the East
Texas State Teachers College at
Commerce. Among the hundreds of
girls there in competition the Smith
county team, taken as a whole, won
third place on individual judging
and 4th as a team. Misses Payne and
Gilley then gave a demonstration in
Home Improvement. As a team they
scored second. But when the total
points that had been made in all
contests by the several teams had
been cast up it was found that the
greatest number had been made by
the Smith county team from White-
house. So the silver trophy cup was
sent over to good old Smith county
for the team having the highest ef-
ficiency—and more than that: the
Smith county girls were awarded the
cash prize of $10.00 for their dem-
onstration in Home Improvement.
Register Now for Short Course
In Order that all women and girls
attending the Short Course at Col-
lege Station the last week in July
may have their rooms reserved and
assigned before they ai-rive (and
thus save long delays in line of be-
lated registrants) Miss Shultz asks
that all women and girls intending
to go should send her the $1.50 room
charges for the week at once. Those
women and girls who are going on
scholarships which have been award-
ed to them need not send the $1.50;
for Miss Shultz already has that in
hand and will make reservation for
them. There ought to be many wom-
en and girls in Smith county to at-
tend this Short Course besides those
who have won scholarships. There
are many dads and many hubbies
who ought to send their girls and
their wives; for there are many girls
and many wives and mothers who
deserve and assuredly would profit
by this nice little vacation.
Girls Compliment Their Sponsor
Away up in the extreme end of the
“Panhandle of Smith county” there
are two fine groups of 4-H club
girls, part of them at Providence
and part of then/ at Jamestown.
Mrs. Ben Anthony is sponsor of the
Providence girls and the home eco-
nomics teacher of the Jamestown
teacher of the Jamestown girls in
their public school work. These girls
appreciate the devotion to their
teacher and her interest in them and
the work they are doing in practical
home-making work. So these girls
get together and by a club supper
and other means they obtain funds
with which to compliment their
sponsor-teacher with a free trip to
the Short Course. Now that’s fine.
New Harmony Girls Send Member
Then there is the New Harmony
girls 4-H club. It is, we believe, the
youngest club in the county. These
girls decided that they ought to
have one of their number to repre-
sent them at the big week of school-
ing down at the Short Course. They
are going, to get the funds with
which to send a member. So, else-
where in this issue, you will see a
notice that they are to give a sup-
per to which they are inviting the
general public and the candidates
for public offices. Go and help these
girls to realize the funds for a scho-
larship for one of their number.
Watermelon Products for Market
This is important for every W. H.
D. club member in the county: On
Monday, July 14, at 1:30 p. m., Miss
Mamie Lfee Hayden, Home Indus-
tries Specialist of the Farm Exten-
sion service, will be in Tyler and
will give a special demonstration in
the preparation of watermelon pro-
ducts. It is said that-.there is a won-
TOMATOES LOW IN EAST
TEXAS ALL THE SEASON
Jacksonville, July 8.—The 1930 to-
mato season practically came to a
close in this section Monday when
about ten cars were loaded, bring-
ing from 2c to 2 l-2c a pound for
green wrapped. A tytal of more than
son from East Texas points as com-
pared with 3,400 cars shipped last
year. The yield was good, but prices
were cheap and unsatisfactory thru-
out the season.
Peaches will begin moving imme-
diately. The crop will be very light
due to the heavy freeze. :
BOY OF NEAR MINEOLA
IS KILLED BY TRUCK
Mineola, July 7. —Hplon Padgett,
15, son of Mr. and Mrs. C. M. Pad-
gett, living three miles east of Min-
eola, was instantly killed while get-
ting out of the automobile in which
he was riding, upon being struck by
a passing truck. The accident was
said to have been unavoidable. , :
JUDGE A. J. BOOTY
PASSES IN 91ST YEAR
Lawyer, Student, Statesman True
Type of Southern Chivalry;
Burial in Tyler Wednesday
Judge A. J. Booty, 91, former at-
torney, legislator and civic leader,
died Tuesday afternoon at 3:15, aft-
er a brief illness. Judge Booty is
survived by his son and daughter-in-
law, Mr. and Mrs. A. C. Booty, one
granddaughter, Katherine Booty, and
a brother, John L. Booty.
Judge Booty was born April 29,
1840 near Forsythe, Ga., coming to
Texas with his parents in 1853. He
was educated at McKinzie College,
Clarksville, Texas. At the outbreak
of the Civil War, Judge Booty en-
listed and finally became captain of
a company from Panola county. Af-
ter the war he returned to Texas
and entered into a prominent career
as a legislator, making his , home for
most of his active life at Carthage
and serving his judicial district for
many years as District Judge.
“Judge Booty was a member of
the twelfth and thirteenth legisla-
tures which had to do with.the prob-
lems of reconstruction, when Gov-
ernor Coke wrested the state gov-
ernment from carpet-bag rule. But
his ambition tended always to the
legal profession, and he was licensed
to practice law in 1873. Three years
latef he was elected district judge
of the district comprising the coun-
ties of Harrison* Shelby, Rusk and
Panola. He was three times re-elect-
ed; and then leaving the bench he
moved from Marshall to Fort Worth
where he entered the practice of law
with the firm of Wynne, McCarty
and Booty. Later he formed a part-
nership with Sidney L. Samuels. Be-
cause of an impairment in hearing
which developed into almost total
deafness, he retired from practice
some 15 years ago, and since that
time has resided at Tyler.
“He was married in 1868 to Miss
Elmina Maddux of Mt. Enterprise,
Texas. Two children were born pf
this marriage, only one of whom,
A. C. Booty of Tyler, survives him.
His wife died in November, 1928.”

NEW AREA
NEAR VAN
Grand Saline, July 5.—Indications
point to an early development of
the new producing area opened up
by Humble’s producer on the Mrs.
E. E. Carroll tract, northeast of the
Van field. Location for an offset to
the Carroll by the Texas Company
is reported. The Texas location is 150
feet east of the Carroll and is on the
G. W. Carter tract. Pure is report-
ed to have made a location for an
offset 150 feet south of the Carroll
on the Ruth Star Blake tract.
Further evidence which points to
an intensive development ^of this
area is the reported arrival of a
carload of eight-inch pipe at Silver
I^ake and which is saiij to have been
hauled to the Carroll tract.
No announcement has been made
as to what plan #ill be used to hold
down production in this new produc-
ing area, but it is generally conced-
ed there wilt be some method of re-
stricting production. The most gen-
erally accepted rumor is that anoth
'er unit plan will be formed, with
Humble developing the new block.
VAN ZANDT’S
ROAD WORK
Canton, July 6.—By the end of the
year contracts for work on all State
highways in Van Zandt county will
have been awarded. This belief has
been expressed by County Judge S.
L. West.
The county has allotted to the
State Highway Department one-third
or $500.00 of the bond issue of $1,-
500,000 voted last year for highways.
This is to be spent on three high-
ways, Nos. 15, 64 and 19. Almost
half of the bond issue, $700,000, is
to be utilized in retiring outstanding
road bonds, while $300,000 is to be
used for lateral roads.
Highway No. 15 runs east and
west through Van Zandt county for
thirty miles. It is the Dallas high-
way, extending from the Kaufman
county line to the Smith county
line. ,
Highway No. 64 runs southeast
and northwest through Van Zandt
county for a distance of forty-four
miles, from Wills Point via Canton
to the Smith county line.

bottle of strychnine in an old trunk
in a bed room cost the life of four-
year-old Louisb Nobles on the first
day of her visit to her cousin, Jack

The child’s parents live at Wink,
Texas.
Van, July 8,—July 17 was set for
the formal opening of the Texas

Texas’ new oil field. This date was
announced Monday afternoon, after
a conference of Van citizens and the

cue, is planned to make the program
for the day attractive. :
JUDGE’S HOME
IS ROBBED
Burglars at Gilmer cut the win-
dow screen at the home of Judge
Guy Morris Saturday night, and

get a branch office of the Texas Cot-
ton Co-operative Association estab-

sociations.
$25,000 LUMBER
LOST IN FIRE
Marshall, July 5.—Lumper worth

ferson. Marshall and Jefferson fire
departments were called. Origin of
the flames was undetermined.
EGGS HATCH
IN STORE
Carthage, July 5.—-The warm July
sun in Panola county is making the
unemployment situation serious for
willing hens, and if they had a rep-
resentative in Washington they
would no doubt be clamoring for
“hen relief,” against the competition
of a local merchant.
When C.'H. Megginson opened his
store he was greeted by the unmis-
takable “peep peep” 'of baby chicks.
Mr. Megginson searched high and
low for the chickens and eventually
found them in a box tucked away
in a dry goods shelf.
Mr. Megginson had* bought three
dozen eggs from a farmer living
near town, some three weeks ago.
He neglected to take the eggs home
with him and had forgotten about
buying them until they started
hatching.
Five of the eggs have hatched and
a test of the others disclosed the
fact that several more contained live
chicks.
Mr. Megginson said that the
chicks were as strong and healthy as
any chicken he had ever seen.

Friendship, July 8. — This com-
munity’s “annual home-coming” was
staged Sunday, and the big features
were an all-day singing with emi-
nent singers from many parts tak-
ing the lead, and a mid-day public
dinner with Friendship’s eminent
housewives and kitchen artists tak-
ing the leading role. It seemed that
almost every one who has Aver re-
sided here was “back home” for the
occasion—and many who had never
resided here were present.
Among the delightful song' fea-
tures of the forenoori were several
numbers offered by Messrs. Howard,
Campbell and Boren of Tyler. In
the afternoon the popular Owens
brothers gave many highly appreci-
ated numbers on the program of
song. An effort was made to line up
some “special songs” by the visiting
candidates—but all asked to be ex-
cused because, they said, they are
having to run so hard for the offices
which they are asking at the hands
of the voters, but they all “quali-
fied” for a conspicuous part around
the table at the noon hour.
Mr. and Mrs. Edd Holt of Tyler
were present for the annual home-
coming. Mrs. Holt remained over for
a few days to visit her mother, Mrs.
D. W. Russell, and other relatives
here. •’
Mr. and Mrs. H. W. Mackey at-
tended a July 4th celebration at
Wqst Mountain Friday.
Mrs. Tuba Phillips of Oklahoma

arkana visited Mrs. D. W. Russell
the past week.

family of Dallas spent Sunday with
Mr. and Mrs. T. P. Jeffries.
Mr. and Mrs. Condy Pounders of
Dallas are guests of relatives here.-
STATISTICS MADE OF
ETEX CANNED GOODS
Longview, July 8. — Through {*
survey conducted by the statistical
department of the Blast Texas Cham-
ber of Commerce, it has been dis-
closed that the wholesale grocers of
the eastern part of the state use a
considerable per cent of East Texas
canned goods but that the several
young canning establishments have
room for much local expansion.
Twenty-one wholesalers reported
total purchases in 1929 of 9,975
cases of green beans, 1.6 per cent of
which were canned in East Texas;
71,050 cases of tomatoes, 3 per cent
being. East Texas canned; 810 cases
of okra, 25.9 fcer cent East Texas,
and 4,800 cases of turnip greens, 20
per cent East Texas.
All of the wholesalers indicated
that preference is given to Blast
Texas products, quality, service and
price being equal. :

Hon. R. B. Still, prominent in Ty-
ler and East Texas business and so-
cial circles for many years, and ac-
tive business manager and assistant
to :;he president of the Gulf States
Telephone Company, is soon to leave
Tyler to accept employment in Kan-
sas City He has always identified
himself with every forward move-
meat of Tyler, Smith county and
blast Texas. In the leadership of civ-
ic and industrial movements of this
city and section it is not too much
to say that no man has given more
of bis time or wrought more effec-
tively—and within the whole realm
of the state but few men have had a
more conspicuous part. Thus in tjje
departure of Mt. Still and his fam-
iy from Tyler, our city sustains a
loss that affects everybody — and
the State loses a builder and devel-
oper whose place will not be easily
filled.
On Tuesday evening some thirty-
five of ’Mr. Still’s closest personal
friends attested their appreciation
for him by a banquet at the Back-

nials of his worth and service were

This Tax System Should Be Abolished
No Matter What Candidates For Governor May Say About it, the
People Will Not Stand For An Indefinite Continuance of the
Inequitable County Bond System for State Highways.
(By Peter Molyneaux, Editor The Texas Weekly)
A SYSTF.M OF TAXATION that levies a tax on a Collin County farm
of $1.20 on the $100 valuation in order to construct a State highway over
which the heaviest traffic consists of motor busses and freight trucks to
and from Dallas cannot be justified by any process of reasoning. And yet
we have just such a system in Texas at present. In about 225 Texas couri-
ties, property owners—including farmers, ranchers, and home-owners—are
paying ad valorem taxes to provide for highway bonds, the proceeds of
which have gone entirely into the construction of State highways. In eighty-
seven of those counties, property owners are paying during the current
year a higher tax rate for this purpose than they are paying into the gen-
eral fund in State taxes. In twenty-seven of those counties they are pay-
ing a higher tax rate for this purpose than the combined State tax rates
for the general fund, the school fund, and Confederate pensions. In the
eighty-seven counties the rate for State roads is more than 30 cents on the
$100 valuation. In the twenty-seven counties the rate for this purpose is
seventy cents or more.
The Collin County rate of $1.20 is cited above. It is not the highest, how-
ever. In Houston county the rate for State roada is $1.41 and in Liberty
it is $1.38, or more than twice, in each case, the total State ad valorem rate
for the general fund, the school fund and Confederate pensions combined.
Other counties having a rate of seventy cents or more for State roads in-
clude UpshurT $1.15; Briscoe, $1.14; Franklin, <1.09; Calhoun, $1.05; Mont-

ESTIMATED AT 55,000 BBLS
Van’s seventy-fifth producer, the
J. C. Bracken No. 2, was brought

of 55,000 barrels daily. Many Tyler
people are intereeted in the develop-
ment of the Bracken tract since they

there is virtually no end to the Van

RE: ABSENTEE VOTING
VERY LIMITED TIME TO ACT
1
If yen arc going to be absent
from your vo*ii.g box on July 26, the
day of the first Primary, you have
but little time to do your “absentee
voting.”
Wednesday, July 16, is the last
day on which those who wish to cast
absentee votes in the July 26 pri-
mary may write in and obtain blank
ballots from the county clerk.. Bal-
lots for absentee voting may be ob-
tained by applying in person to the
county clerk up -to July 23, but those
who expect to have ballots mailed to
them must apply before July 16 in
order to get them.
A large number of absentee votes
are cast in Smith county %ach year,
there being many persons who de-
sire to cast their ballots but who
will not be in the county on the
day of the primary. So they obtain
ballots from the county clerk’s office
and cast them before the primary.
Instructions for casting absentee
ballots may also be obtained at the
county clerk’s office. Any qualified
voter of the county may cast such
a ballot by going before a notary
public and having it sworn to and
certified.
Those who call in person for their
ballots may cast them - with the
county clerk or his assistant without
a notary, they being authorized to
swear the voter and certify the
ballot. :
