erator for the numbers you want.
As always, you’ll And Long Distance service is much fast-

tong Distance is a real bargain, too. Yon can call from
Tlmpson to Houston for only 70c (station-to-station, after 8 p.

I LUCE MY PHONE BECAUSE...
If yon were asked to name the one "main’’ reason why you
like having a telephone, wkat would it be?
Time-saver, maybe? Housewives, especially, get so much
more done during the day by using their telephone as an er-
rand boy. ......
Business aid?- The phone is an essential tool for most busi-
ness and professional people.
Companion? Folks who have to stay close to home be-
cause of illness or family responsibilities find the telephone a
reliable friend. Frequently, it’* their number one means of
'keeping up with friends they don’t often get; to see.
Others find It reassuring just to have a telephone close by,
knowing they can use it to call for help In an emergency.
But most of us, I imagine, like having a telephone simply
because it’s an easy, pleasant way to visit the people we enjoy
and want to talk to.
' Telephone service mesne a lot of different things to a lot
of different people. For whatever reasons you like having a
phone, yon can be sure we’re always searching for new and
better ways to make it even more useful, convenient, and
economical.
MRS. VONNIE TRAMMELL
I feel sure you noticed the article in last week's paper about
Mrs. Trammell. On the 24th of (June she observed SO years
service with the Telephone Compsny.
We are all proud of Vonnie, and rightly so, because she
has performed her duties well. She began her career in 1927
as an operator here in Timpeon and was promoted to Evening
Chief Operator in 1946. Congratulations Mis. Trammell!

WHAT TO DO WHEN
BREATHING STOPS
Effect On Texans
The Texas Egg Law, which
becomes effective In a few
weeks, wffl have probably a
more far-reaching impact on
the citizens of Texas as a
whole than any agricultural
legislation of recent times.
Although regulations will ex-
tend to certain areas of the egg
industry itself, the effect of the
law will be felt not only by pro-
ducers and other indnstrymen,
but by consumers as well. And
the effect will be a good one.
What the law actually does
is to stop misrepresentation of
inferior eggs as quality mer-
chandise and to place empha-
sis on accurate product label-
ling of quality eggs and a bet-
ter produet for consumers.
This is accomplished through
a system of egg grading which
requires all eggs offered for
sale to consumers through re-
tail outlets to be accurately la-
belled according to size, grade
and condition of freshness.
Heretofore, labelling of eggs
as to grade and condition was
a free and open affair with no
recourse available even fat the
most flagrant violations. The
new standards require that no
egg below actual “A” quality
be sold or advertised as fresh,
selected, infertile, cage, or any
word of similar import.
Producers of eggs who sell
only the production of their
own flocks are exempt from
provisions of the act unless
they claim some kind of grade,
ff producers choose to claim a
grade, their eggs must con-
form-completely with provi-
sions of the law.
The act becomes effective
August 22. , Deadline for ob-
taining licenses (by retailers,
dealers, wholesalers and pro-
cessors) is October 20.
Breeders’
Chicago.—Ben T. Childs,
Tirapson, has been elected to
membership in the American
Shorthorn Breeders’ -Associa-
tion, oldest purebred livestock
organization in America.
Purpose of the group is to
collect, verify and .preserve
pedigrees' of Shorthorn and
Polled Shorthorn beef cattle
and to promote greater use of
the breed.
Shorthorns led the purebred
movement to America, the first
eargo landing at Virginia in
1783. The breed spread rapid-
ly throughout the country,
eventually replacing tie long-
horn cattle on the Western
ranges. The polled, or natural-
ally hornless, strain was devel-
oped after the Civil War.
Shorthorns have received inter-
national recognition dor im-
provements in today's beef ani-
mals.
College Station. — Texas
farmers and ranchers are "tak-
ing to the air” for best results
and maximum economy in
brush control programs. Exten-
sion Range Specialist A. H.
Walker says aerial application
of chemicals to control oak and
mesquite continues to gain pop-
ularity by increasing forage
production and boosting farm
profits.
Walker warns farmers not
to expect “miracles” from
chemical control aad points out
that re-treatment will be re-
quired in moat cases. If proper-
ly dime, however, a good aerial
control job win pay big divi-
dends, and Walker says, four
general rules are particularly
important for the interested
farmer or rancher. Use the
proper chemical at the right
time in the comet amount; se-
cure qualified personnel to do
all flying jobs; and rest treated
areas after spraying.
Finally, the specialist says
e chemicals with caution.
They am not poisonous but
drift can cause damage to sus-
ceptible crops. He recommends
that mesquite be sprayed 50-80
days after the first leaves ap-
pear and have turned a dark
green color. Apply a lowVola-
tile ester at 2,4,5-T or sflvex at
a one-third pound rate with a
half gallon diesel oil - find
enough water to make three
gallons spray solution per acre.
Swath width should not exceed
60 feet. Regrowth mesquite re-
quire a half pound of the
chemical mixed with a full gal-
lon of diesel oil and enough
water to make 4 gallons solu-
tion i <r acre for a minimum
42 feet swath width. Expect a
25-36 percent root kill and
count on re-treating in 6 to 7
years.
Walker says spray post and
blackjack oaks in mid-May
through June or when leaven
are fully developed. Two spray-
ings in consecutive years or
skipping a year is sometimes
advisable, but the Arab applica-
tion can be 86 per cent effec-
tive under favorable condi-
tions. Recommendations call
for one and a half pounds
2.4.5- T or one and one-fourth
pounds of silvex par acre with
3 gallons of water and enough
oil to make 4 gallons spray so-
lutions. Follow-up treatment
should consist of oae pound
2.4.5- T-Or three-fourths pound
silvex to the acre. Expect only
partial control on other hard-
woods. Cost for the two treat-
ments will he about 311.50 sn
acre.
Consult your county agent,
advises Walker, for publica-
tions and suggestions concern-
ing aerial control at oak and
mesquite.
