Big Changes Occur
In U S. Agriculture
COLLEGE STATION.—Agricul-
ture has a highly shifting nature—
big changes are in store and many
have already occurred, according
to Alvin B. Wooten, extension eco-
nomist.
For example, U. S. farm popula-
tion dropped nearly two million
persons in 1956—an all-time record
drop for any single year, says
Wooten. But while numbers are de-
creasing, farm size is increasing.
Since 1940, average farm size has
increased 40 percent and invest-
ment per farm has shot up 300
percent (when inflation is allow-
ed for). Farm land values have
risen 40 percent in the last seven
years.
Only 12 percent of the popula-
tion is engaged in farming, says
the economist. This means 12 per-
cent of the population now pro-
vides tjhe Jaw material to feed it-
self and thd remaining 88 percent.
In colonial times, more than 85
percent; of the nation was engaged
in farming.
In 1950, only 30 percent of farm
people were working at off-farm
jobs. In 1956 this figure had risen
to 40 percent.
In 1950,17 percent of farm wives
had off-farm employment. In 1956,
26 percent were so engaged. This
was the largest increase of any
occupational group.
In 1957, Wooten points out that
2.1 percent of the nation’s farmers
produced 33 percent of all farm
products and half of the farmers
produced 90 percent. Thus, 50 per-
cent of U. S. farmers produced
only 10 percent of the total farm
production.
The farm population is also get-
ting older, he says. Since 1950, the
largest decrease in farm popula-
tion has been in the 18-to 44-year-
old group.

Plenty Oil
Floral Carpet
GENZANO, ITALY — As artists put the finishing touches on the
mammoth floral carpet in the streets of Genzano, spectators admire
the delicate handiwork. Each year, in a traditional ceremony dat-
ing back hundreds of years, flowers by the ton are used to “pave”
the streets leading to the cathedral (background) a half-mile away.
More than eight tons of petals and leaves are used in fashioning
the lovely floral mosaic.
Many Visitors Amazed At Opening Of
Fire Department's New Hall Sunday
Labor Day Boat Races
Planned By C. Of C.
Under U.S.
The propaganda line of the giant
importing oil companies is that
the United States should use for-
eign oil and save its own.
This is an old saw. Dr. Bruce
C. Netschert’s recent study under
the auspices of a non-profit re-
search corporation states there is
about 150 years supply of oil in
the United States and offshore
tidclands, and that by 1975 a total
of 16,500,000 barrels daily can be
produced, provided there is the in-
centive to go out and find the oil.
This study does not include oil
shale deposits which, in Colorado
alone, contain over 900,000,000,000
bands of crude oil equivalent. Re-
cent announcements indicate that
it may not be long before this oil
can be extracted and sold in com-
petition with crude oil. Some re-
ports are that shale oil may be
produced cheaper than crude oil.
Then, too, it may not be too
long—maybe in the next 10 years
according to some reports—that
nuclear energy will be replacing
oil to supply the needs of fuel-pow.
ered mechanisms.
The present and long-range pic-
ture is pretty gloomy to the do-
mestic oilman and landowner, es-
pecially since, at the moment, the
administration’s voluntary program
to restrict foreign oil imports is
not working to their satisfaction.
A Sunday announcement is that
oil imports are now running 50
per cent above the 1954 average.
Meanwhile, here is the latest
drill report, field-by-field, area-by-

merce Sunday afternoon from 3 to
6 o’clock at the recently completed
meeting hall of the Palacios Volun-
teer Fire Department.

terior walls are finished in a light
green. The building includes a
large area for holding meetings, a
small kitchen and two rest rooms.
The department is the proud
owner of a gas range, electric re-
frigerator, electric hot water heat-
er, four folding tables, 50 folding
chairs, a filing cabinet and two air-
conditioning units.
The firemen also had on ex-
hibit their fully equipped emer-
gency vehicle, their resuscitator
and Scott Air-Pak units.
To make their hall complete
they need mirrors for the rest-
rooms, a coffee urn, cups and
glasses.
Refreshments of punch, coffee
and an assortment of cookies were
served.
Take Safely Along
On Vacation Trip
AUSTIN.—J. K). Musick, gen-
eral manager of the Texas Safety
Association said today that each
vacationing Texan will do well to
take along an extra piece of lug-
gage on this year’s trip.
“The hag I’m talking about won’t
take up any room and won’t cost a
cent in expenses,” Musick said.
“In fact, it will eave you from a
lot of unnecessary expenses and
may even save your life. The extra
luggage, of course, is Safety.”
Musick urged motorists to pack
at least five safety packages in-
side the extra suitcase along with
other vacation equipment.
(1) Legal Safety; Adapt your
driving to road conditions and obey
all traffic signs and rules.
(2) Mechanical Safety: Mak cer-
tain your automobile is in good
mechanical condition—have it safe-
ty checked.
(3) Viewing Safety: Load your
car so that vacation equipment and
luggage won’t block your driving
vision.
(4) Sober Safety: Don’t mix
drinking with driving. Remember,
drinking motorists were involved
in more than a third of all rural
fatal traffic accidents in Texas
during 1957.
(5) Time Safety: Allow plenty
of time for your trip. Get the
proper rest and try to maintain a
maximum of patience on the road.
Don’t rush to “make time.”
“It is amazing how many driv-
ers make real work out of their
vacation driving,” Musick *aid.
“Some of them return home ex-
hausted and more in need of a
rest than when they started out.
It will pay to remember to: Slow
Down and Live!”
Mr. and Mrs. Charles Horton, of
Huntsville, who have been em-
ployed as members of this year’s
school faculty, were here Friday
finding a place to live.
Monday evening following a
short business meeting the fire-
men enjoyed a real “feed” that in-
cluded boiled shrimp and every-
th'ng that goes with it.
Visitors included Mayor Peter-
sen, councilmen Ed Feather and
Homer Anarieio, Carlton Crawford
and R. C. Shelton. Out-of-town
guests were George Sirmon and
Hugh Keepers of the Victoria
AFB Fire Department; Ernest
Ratke and iWayne Nindsey of the
Point Comfort fire department.

New Waler System
Nears Completion
The Chicago Bridge & Iron Co.
is nearing completion of the new
water tower in the north west corn-
er of Palacios and completion of
the water improvement is in the
near future.
The Layne Texas Co., Inc., has
completed their part of the system
with a new well and the South-
land Welding Works of Rosenberg
has completed the new 8-inch
water main from Ninth and Welch
west to 11th street and north to
the new water well and tower.
When the tower is completed
the Layne Texas Co., Inc., will
install the new pumps and pump
house.
Survey To Start
For Mausoleum
A preliminary survey will be
made in the next few days for the
Community Mausoleum that will
be built in the Palacios Cemetery,
according to an announcement
made by Claud Chastain, builder
of the structure.
Details of the mausoleum were
described in an advertisement that
appeared in last week’s Beacon.
Chastain also announced that
Guy Claybourn will be the local
representative for the mausoleum
project. Claybourn will make a
survey of the entire community
and explain the project, answer
questions, show pictures and point
out the many benefits of the mau-
soleum.
The survey is necessary because
the important aspects of this type
of burial are not generally known
and because in this type mau-
soleum only space is included in
its construction for those who
desire it.
After seeing pictures and other
explanatory data which gives each
person a full knowledge of its
many desirable points one can
reach an intelligent decision, Chas-
tain said.
Chastain stated that anyone who
inquires about the mausoleum or
has it explained to him w,ll not
be obligated in any way.
Construction of the mausoleum
will begin when the survey is com-
pleted, Chastain concluded in his
announcement.
First Of Three Fires
Destroys Ranch Home
Of L. C. Cornelius
The Palacios Volunteer Fire De-
partment was called on three oc-
casions last Thursday.
In the wee hours of the morn-
ing they answered an alarm to
the L. C. Cornelius farm house
near the underpass at Blessing.
In mid afternoon they answered
another alarm at the Crown Cen-
tral oil field near Carancahua for
a grass fire.
The third alarm was to the
former Crawford Packing Com-
pany canning plant wh- re no dam-
age was done.
Mr. and Mrs. James L. Scott
and children of Houston were visit-
ing friends here over the week.
Mrj Scott was a former employee
at the local CAA station before
transferring to Houston.
GRASSY POINT
By LORRAINE HASFORD
There were very few favorable
comments made by fishermen about
the prevailing South 'Wfest wind
all week, but it was welcomed by
many on these warm summer days.
Morning waders that chose be-
tween the B.Y.P.U. pier and the
City Pier were successful in bring-
ing in some nice catches of specks.
One wader had 18 averaging one
and one half pounds.
Keller Bay remains quite clear
due to sandy bottom and there
have been good reports from this
area, The same is true of Port
Alto,
John Reardon, of Houston, a
regular fisherman here, and guest
of Paul’s Courts, gets his 12 pounds
of fish in three casts, with a few
before and after each fish was
landed, of course. He had two four
pound reds, and a four pound
flounder from Turtle Rayou.
The Tres-Palacios river has been
fairly clear and small trout are in
abundance.
* * *
Most of the boats on the bay
this week end were skiicrs, even
though water was a bit choppy
for that pleasure.
I am sure all fishermen and
skiiers will appreciate the July 26
cover of the Saturday Evening
Post, by Artist Ben Prins.

News Capsules from Random
Casting:
Anglers this summer are mak-
ing unusual catches, according to
reports from National Wildlife
Federation. A fisherman in Penn-
sylvania, seeking crappie, caught
a live muskrat. A lady caster in
Tenn. tossed a plug and snared
an owl flying overhead.
As of July 1, 1958, law enforce-
ment personnel of the Utah State
Department of Fish and Game are
being known as "Conservation Of-
ficers,” rather than Wardens. Di-
rector H. S. Crane remarked that
the new title is more appropriate
as the officers spend less thanr
one third of their time in law en-
forcement. Most of their work is in
fish and game management or edu-
cation.
Charles L. Braley, writing in the
July Audubon Magazine reports a
decline in the bald eagle in Florida.
He believes sterility, resulting
from eating fish killed by DDT
and other insecticide poisop-V
the cause.
Billy Thomas of Monteagle,
Tenn., recently made an unusual’
catch while fishing in Grundy
Lake. His hook caught on an ob-
ject, which he hauled from the
water. It was a bundle of money
wrapped in rotten cloth. The
money amounted to $685 in old
paper hank notes dating back to
1902!
A tire “blew” on a tank truck
being used by the Oregon Fish
Commission, and some 45,000 live
fish were spilled over a road near
Elgin, Ore., as the vehicle over-
turned. Commission employees
scooped up approximately half of
the load but how many of the fish-'
would survive was questionable.-.
