WORLD COMMUNITY DAY
NOVEMBER 4, 1960
The 1960 observance of World
Community Day will be at the
Boerne Methodist Church. Dur-
ing this service our church wom-
en will be finding positive ans-
wers to these questions.
1. In this decade can we help
make peace possible?
2. Is not freedom from chorn-
is ill health a necessary basis
for peace and the birthright of
all people?
The program will be one of
study, action and worship. Will
you plan to be with us for this
observance?
This year’s theme “Christian
Action for Freedom,” is impera-
tive to meet the new forces that
threaten survival in this decade
of decision. The study will be
directed toward understanding
how citizens help share the U.
S. and U. N. peace policies.
The action part of our pro-
gram wil be the assembling of
Homer Medical Kits to be used
by women who are taking first-
aid courses in rural areas of
these countries where medical
services are lacking. Children’s
night gowns will be made for
those in church-supported insti-
tutions or hospitals. This new
emphasis will be “aimed” toward
freedom from chronic ill health
in four developing counties:
Ethiopa, Nigeria, Chile and Bur-
ma.
The offering will help train
women in nutrition and welfare
so they may assist their own
people to attain higher stand-
ards of health. Our guest speak-
er will be telling us of the con-
ditions as she actually found
them among the natives of the
“Dark Continent.”
World Community Day is
sponsored by the Sunrise Hill
Council of United Church Wom-
en in Boerne and surrounding
areas. Each of us cordially in-
vite you to participate in this
observance with us beginning
at 9:30 A. M. Friday, Nov. 4th.

Who's going to
help the farmers?
America’s farmers are having a rough
time in the midst of Republican “pros-
perity.” Low prices — high costs. Big
overhead — small profit. Costly invest-
ment— staggering bills and debts.
Who’s to blame? It isn’t just Ezra
Taft Benson. The Republican admin-
istration that appointed Benson and
for eight years praised his policies is
equally to blame. The “experienced” Mr.
Nixon has called Benson “one of the
greatest Secretaries of Agriculture in
our history.”
The best way to get sympathetic ac-
tion for farmers’ problems is to elect
Democratic leadership to the White
House.

SSOIL CONSERVATION!
DISTRICT NEWS
Erwin Klemstein planted 12
acres of clover and oats and
fertilized it heavy with 16-20-0
fertilizer. This should greatly
increase his grazing plus leave
a good growth for soil protec-
tion and improvement.
Klemstein found better mois-
ture conditions where he put a
heavy amount of straw back in
the soil this past year. One field
where lots residue was returned
was almost too wet to plow in
September. Other fields with
with little or limited residue was
real dry.
* * * *
Cover Helped
Recent heavy rains have show
ed the advantages of a cover
through crop residue or a grow-
ing crop. Many areas had heavy
rains and severe damage. Fields
that had residue left on top of
the soil did not wash as much
as fields that were clean plowed.
The same was true with grass
areas. The heavier grassed
areas had less runoff and ero-
sion than area with poor cover.

Hill Country Asosciation
Meeting
The Bandera Soil Conserva-
tion District was host to neigh-
boring soil conservation dis-
tricts in the Hill County Asso-
ciation of Soil Conservation Dis-
tricts. They had a good program
and tour and barbecue.
The Texas Game and Fish
Commission had a part on fish
pond management and deer man
agement and a tour was made
on the H. H. Wagner and P. G.
Northrup ranches to see re-
sults of brush control, range
seeding and good range manage-
ment.

Fish Ponds
Elgin Dietz, Biologist, Texas
game and Fish Commission,
gave some interesting facts to
the group on fish management
at the associational meeting. He
said there were two common
errors in managing ponds for
fish production. One was over-
stocking due to too little fish-
ing. Second, lack of fertilizing.
Dietz said that they often get
requests year after year from
farmers for fish for the same
ond and ofter he does little or
no fishing. He said this past
year, they took a male and fe-
male bass and moved them three
times within two months to
fresh water and they spawned
all three times for a total of
over 40,000 young bass. From
this, it can readily be seen that
it is easy to become over-stocked
very quickly.
Ponds should be fertilized
from spring until fall. Fishing
should start as soon as fish
spawn first time after stocking.
* * * *
Deer Management
Jack Thomas, Wildlife Biolo-
gist, Texas Game and Fish
Commission, explained the re-
cent increase of deer population
in Bandera County and how reg-
ulatory control will work there.
He said that regardless of how
many deer a rancher may have
on his ranch, or how many per-
mits the game department may
give for deer harvest, the ranch-
er is the one to say if any or all
permits will be used.
Thomas pointed out that a
range can carry just so many
livestock. When this stock be-
comes too heavy, one of two
things must happen—one, stock
will starve and die off or second,
ranchers must start feeding. All
this is true with deer. But to
feed deer to prevent die-offs, is
only prolonging a much worse
die-off. Because it is impossible
to continue t oincrease popula-
tions without either harvest or
die-off.
VISIT BIG BEND
Mr. and Mrs. Booby Lex and
their daughter Jackie just re-
turned from a trip in Big Bend
Park in Presidio, where they
visited a nephew and family.
On their return they stopped
and visited Mr. and Mrs. Alvin
Rhodes at S. W. T. J. C. in Uval-
de.
The Lex’s said it was o hot in
Presidio that a Jackrabbit had
to take a jug of water to cross
a pasture.
