GOVERNMENT GETTING

fcizing the fact that the govern-
mnt cvntually Is getting out of

allowed aid from the dwindling
relief funds.
If a relief applicant has enough
partially to live on then the gov
ernment can supply mm wun
only supplementary aid to meet
his 'basic requirements but first
however every available re
source must be carefully taken
into account including possible
aid from relatives.
"Family responsibility anouiu
be strengthened during these
times of realignment" Relief
Commission officials emphasize
urging that families able to as-
sist destitute relatives recognize
their obligations.
General "dig in" advice has
been issued to relief clients.
MiinHno- nut that present feder
al funds have been narrowly
limited and that no more ap
mxmriations are likely officials
urge the necessity of conserving
every cent possible in order to
stretch the present iunas unui
the Works Progress Adminis-
tration gets fully under way.
They have told district adminis
tration officials particularly
case supervisors and case work-
ers to investigate thoroughly
the client's ability to support
himself at least partially thru
his own resources.
- "Bv resources" officials say
"we include such items as gar
den products milk from tne
family's cow help from rela-
tives " and from churches and
Atber sources saving accounts
insurance loans odd jobs in-
enme of children1 etc.
Another step toward weeding
out the relief rolls was taken
when the Board of Control ruled
that tenant farmers who are ac-

already harvested one this year

PLANTING TIME IS HERE
FOR FALL GARDENS
College Station'.- Most of tho
success of the fall garden de-
ponds on preparing the soil cor-
rectly according to J. F. Ros-
borough Extension horticultur-
ist. "All weeds and vegetation
must be removed before plant-
ing" Rosborough said "or the
soil will dry out quickly and pos-
sibly carry diseases."
The Extension horticulturist
recommended a heavy applica
tion of summer manure before
plowing is started. Ho explain
ed that summer manure which
has no acids or burning ingred
ients is used to increase the
water holding capacity and to
prevent the soil from becoming
hard and crusted following the
fall rain.
He recommended that as soon
us the soil is plotwied it shoulld
be pulvened. "Select vegetables
that are resistant to heat to
plant in the fall garden from
the last of August to the first
half of September" Rosborough
continued "such as onion sets
Swiss chard tender green Irish
potatoes carrots beets and col-
lards. Later plant such vege-
tables as lettuce radishes mus-
tard spinach and cabbage
Which will withstand cold iweath-
er. Bush beans will grow unless
the weather turns too cold."
He went onto say that in
many gardens hardy vegetbles
such as pepper egg plant okra
and tomatoes which have sur-
vived the summer heat and are
ready to produce a fall crop
should be fertilized. In sandy
soils the addition of one to two
tablespoonfuls per plant of 6-12-6
commercial fertilizer will
be beneficial.
"Wise gardeners do not stake
all in ia fall garden by just
plantng a turnip patch" he said
"but they plant other vegetables
such as Swiss chard tender
green louse proof turnips and
other leafy things of this type
along with the old stand.
"Before cold weather sets in
pumpkins. cushaws summer
squashes and other vegetables
of this type should be stored in
a protected place" he continued.
"In the western part of the
State store these vegetables in
the cellar; in the southern part
store them where ventilization
will absorb the vegetable mois-
ture and kep rot fungus down."

Fire uncontrolled is one of
the most serious problems that
confronts us today by reason
iof the fact that it has taken a
heavy toll in the number of peo-
.ple burned to death annually
and by reason of the further
fact that this form of waste has
proven to be a heavy financial
burden on each of our citizens.
Fire to a very large dgree is
preventable by the proper appli-
cation of education in fire pre-
vention' and fire protection.
- Now therefore I R. W. OMill-
er Mayor of the city of Bartlett
do hereby proclaim the iweek of

tion Week during which week
il most respectfully urge our civ-

"to cooperate and work with the
fire chief fire marshal and city
officials in an effort to control

Belton Texas Aug. 29. More
corn has been received at Bel-

ably any other August in the
Macon Ga. Aug. 31. Carry-
ing into Federal court his fight
on the Roosevelt administra-
tion's farm program Gov. Eu-
gene Talmadge of Georgia Sat-
urday filed a petition challeng
ing constitutionality of the
Bankhead cotton control act. A
hearing was set for Sept. 5
Columbus.
United States District Judge
Bascom Deaver did not grant a
temporary order restraining col-
lection of the 6c pound penalty
tax on cotton produced in excess
of quotas allowed under the
Bankhead law. Instead he or
dered the Government to show
cause at the hearing in Colum-
bus why the petition for injunc-
tion should not be granted.
Governor Talmadge who for
months has been assailing the
Roosevelt administration and
especially its farm policies was
en route to Sioux Falls S. C to
make a Labor Day speech there
when the suit was filed.
Besides Governor Talmadge a
group of Putnam County farm-
ers were named as plaintiffs
and W. E. Page internal reve-
nue collector and several cotton
ginners as. defendants.

a score oi negroes chairman
George Eddy of the Harris coun-
ty unit of the organization re-
ported "disgustedly" today up-
on his return from the conven
tion city.
Eddy said he presented Hous-
ton's invitation for the t 1937
convention of the organization
but said he did it "with my fin-
gers crossed."
"Indiana got the next conven-
tion" he said. "I didn't want
it. In the Indiana delegation
there were 20 negroes in the
Pennsylvania delegation was one
negro woman and in the Kansas
delegation was one negro man.
"Wouldn't they have a" hullu-
va time seating those delegates
down here?"
"There were about 2500 peo-
ple there 500 of them federal
job-holders and 1999 of m them
looking for federal jobs. ' I was
the odd one. Im doing all right
in Houston as city purchasing
agent.
Mr. Eddy said one of the prin-
cipal activities of the convention
was that "practically everybody
gotdrunk except the Texas
delegation."
"They called themselves Dem-
ocrats" he said. "But one fel-
low got up to criticize the New
Deal and they threw him out
