Thank You
I wish to express my most sincere thanks to all those votars and friends
whose confidence and support returned me to a four yeqr term as your
county commissioner.
In the past 24 years I have run (or this office 13 times and the thrill
of knowing that you have consistently shown your approval by reelecting
me is undiminished. I have always tried to serve every citizen conscien-
tiously and well and it is my pledge to you to continue to do so.
I wish I could thank each of you in person but since I can't, let this be
my means of a grateful "Thanks!” . __
See you again in 1960!
Sincerely, your County Commissioner,
FRANK S. PAYNE

ALASKA IN KOREA -Bsked
Alaska, pickled eggs and other
delicacies found usually only
in glamorous eating places are
a far cry from field ratiQni.

his culinary art. He’s shown
whipping up a batch of baked

Drought Aids
Pond Cleanup
AUSTIN—Ponds and tanks at
low water level because of the
drouth may now be conveniently
cleared of rough fish, suggested
the Chef Aquatic Biologist for the
Game and Fish Commission.
He urged peTsons with tanks or
ponds on their places to contact
their local game warden for super-
visory aid in seining the areas. He
pointed- out that such work can
be done only with formal Commis-
sion because of legal restrictions
on seining.
The Chief Aquatic Biologist ob-
served that the usual hot weather
reports on fish dying in low
streams and tanks are current. He
said this generally is from lack of
oxygen in the water.

Dr. P. S. Erhard has completed
constructing approximately 1 Mi
miles oF drainage ditches on hia
farm. These ditches will serve to
eliminate excess surface water
which has been a conservation
problem to the land.
Drainage is an important factor
when needed in getting land into
production. Dr- Erhard plans to
establish permanent pasture of
White Dutch clover, Dallis and
Bermuda grass on the 100 acres as
soon as possible.
The Soil Conservation Service
assisted Dr Erhard in the design,
layout and construction of the
drainage system.
Dr. Erhard’s farm is near the
Kountze fire tower. ,

Insulin is a substance produced in
the body by the pancreas. Insulin
helps turn the sugar a person eats
#lnto heat and energy. Failure on
the part of the body to make
enough insulin Is one of the many
'causes of diabetes. When that is
the ease, the diabetic must obtain
additional supplies of insulin by
Injection in the amounts and fre-
quency specified by the doctor. An
important part of our health serv-
ice is to maintain fresh supplies of
insulin which we keep under
refrigeration at the correct tem-
perature to assure full effetiveness.
We are always prepared to serve
fully the diabetic's specific needs.

A 4 room house with one bath on a ten acre tract
Your tax per year, $30.00 to $40.00
A S room house —■ one bath on a ten acre tract —
Your Ux per year, $38.50 to $48.50
Tax on acreage is based on a $12.00 per acre valuation at a
tax rate of $1.50 per one hundred dollars_If you

or $80.00. At $1.50 per $100.00 your tax on 5 acres

REMEMBER!!
The above tax rates will build a new modern school — A big school —
one that will provjtk facilities for the growth predicted, for our community
and in addition will provide a combination gym-cafeteria-auditorium — A
community meeting place and assurance our children will receive educa-
tional opportunities equal to those offered by other school districts.
