“Something Queer"
Great Fireball
Is No Ordinary
Meteorite
Albuquerque, N M., Sept. 21 'UP)
.—A meteorolofisi at the, University
of New Mexico says that a great
flrebal seen in skies throughout the
Western part of the nation was
“something queer"—not just an or-
dinary meteorite.
Dr. Lincoln La Paz spent the
day in the Chico Hills interviewing
persons who reported seeing the
object about 1:40 pin. <MST) on
Saturday.
The Traffic Control Center at
the Municipal Airport in Albuquer-
que was floode dwith calls by per-
sons who had observed the aerial
d'splay. One woman told the United
Press in Santa Fe she saw what
looked likft a "big ball of fire with
a green tail trailing along behind."

76 Lots Now
On Perpetual
Care Basis
The perpetual care cemetery
system here Is growing stead ly
Myrtle Cemetery President Dr. C
A McMurray said today and urged
that families with lots in the ceme-
tery take definite and consistent
intercat in providing for their up-
keep.
The following lots have been
placed hi Perpetual Care since
Aug. 1, 1964:
Dr. J. W. ToUeson, J. D. Horn, L.
C. Ovcrhclset, Dr. A. L. Thomas.
S. M. Carle ton, J. W. Aldridge, A.
L. Edwards, M. J. Fannin, Dr. H.
H Kent, J. W. Fitzgerald, D. W.
Burhfield. J. D. Rossou, Z. T. Frith,
Mis. m. Snider, Ohas. E. Oilpin,
H. T. O'Bannion, 6. P. Roller and
Mrs J. W. Hinton Sr.
"This gives the Perpetual Care
Fund with the Republic National
Bank of Dallas a total of $23,250
invested in U. S. Govt. Bonds," the
president pointed out. “In addition
to the 76 lots now In F*erpetual cafe,
525 lots owners have paid their $6.00
dues for the year beginning Sept. 1,
1951 Our goal for the year is 900
paid lots. Tliis leaves us 300 to go.
Second notices are being mailed.
Lot owners are urged to pay their
dues promptly.
"Statements for dues go to all
parts of Texas and a dozen other
states. The out-of-town lot owners
pay promptly. Those In Ennis axe
sometimes slow. Most of the en-
couragement we get is from those
living away from Ennis.
“We who have burial plots in the
cemetery must look at the ceme-
tery as a whole and not just the
small plot where our main interest
Is centered. It is the overall picture
that is important. Tie main cost
of maintaining the cemetery- is in
keeping the streets and walkways,
gravel, maintenance and extension
of water lines, care of trees and
shrubs, picking up tons of trash
and rubbish. "Everyone with an in-
terest in the Cemetery should pay
their $6.00 dues whether they keep
their own lot or not. Remember
you could not even get to your lot
unless the Association maintained
the streets and kept the property
around you. We are doing all in
out power, with the funds available,
to keep the property as you would
have it kept."

COUNTY AGENT
. . . SAYS:
Cattle Tuberculosis
I received notification this yveek
that Ellis County was declared
modified area in the cooperative
tuberculosis eradication program of
the U. S. D. A. and the Livestock
Sanitation Department of Texas.
A veteriarian from these agencies
has been in the county during the
pest summer testing cattle for tu-
berculosis, free of cost to any far-
mer that desired his services. If
you would like the opportunity to
have your cows tested free, there
may be another time to do so. We
do not luive #ny Information as to
when the next check will be made
hi the area
Hardware Disease
Many farm animals, especially
cattle, are dying tills year from
what is commonly called "hardware
disease" These loses can be "pre-
vented by being sure nails, wire
and scraps of junk don’t get into
the feed of the animals. Be especi-
ally careful with ground feed and
hay to be sure they don't contain
pieces of metal that the animal
may swallow and suflct from ' hard-
ware disease”. Hardware inside
your animals is dangerous.
In a report made this week by
the State Department of Health on
the number of animals received
in thus Laboratory that were found
to have Chips' one was from Ellis
County. Tins period covered from
January 1 through August 31 and
showed that one dog was found
to have rabies in Ellis County.
Many animals may have rabies
but dogs are by fai leading the
list. Rabies in dogs us probably
several times more common than in
all other animals combined.
Early destructions of Cotton stalks
Destruction of cotton stalks Im-
mediately after harvest and as far
as possible in advance of the first
frost, will prevent lute-season de-
velopment of boll weevils and pink
bolliworms, thus reducing the num-
bers that may survive the winter.
The value of early destruction of
cotton stalks has been demonstrat-
ed In many communities and coun-
ties ol Texas during recent years.
Early stalk destruction which de-
stroys the food supply and stops
continuous breeding of pink bolf-
wonrw* and boll weevils Is the best
and most economical means of re-
ducing damage from these Insects
during the next crop season. Late
summer 01 early fall rams will
cause new growth and fruiting ot
coton plants and will allow large
numbers of these inserts to build
up and enter hibernation. Cotton
should not be allowed to breed late
generations of boll weevils or pink
boUworms after the crop is harvest-
ed. A top crop cannot usually be
produced economically because ol
infestation ot these insects Since
the crop i: maturing unusually ral -
ly because of the drouth, farmers
are being afforded an excellent op-
portunity to harvest the crop early,
to destroy their stalks early and
therby to reduce the pink bollworm
infestation to previous low levels.
The destruction of stalks even a
few days before frost is worthwhile
but if this can oe accomplished
30 days or more before frost, the
results from the standpoint of in-
sect control can be expected to be
much better. Stalk shredders will
kill large numbers of pink boll-
worms and boll weevils mechanical-
ly and will expose many of those
remaining to weather and other
hazards through the even spreading
of debris oVer the ground.'Although
early stalk destruction is profitable
nn mdiviuuai fieids or farms, it is
of much greater value when pinc-
tlrivl on a emnmimit v-wldc or coun-
ty-wide or area-wide basis.
