SONS OF HERMANN
TO CONDUCT A
MEMBERSHIP DRIVE
The 165 lodges of the Order of
the Sons of Hermann in Texas
will conduct a membership cam-
paign Aug. 1-Oct. 31, Fritz
Schilo, grand president of the
order, which has its headquart-
ers in San Antonio, has an-
nounced.
Some 60,000 men, women and
children belonging to the order
are eligible to participate in the
campaign and will get special
awards for successfully recom-
mending new members during
the three months, Schilo said.
The Hermann Sons order,
which dates back 103 years in
Texas, operates its own home
for its aged and a youth sum-
mer camp, both at Comfort, in
the beautiful Texas Hill Country
and free dancing classes in all
communities where 40 or more
junior members are interested
in such a class.
August, initial month of the
campaign, will be dedicated to
the 34th Grand Lodge conven-
tion of the fraternal benefit so-
ciety, scheduled for San Antonio
next April 26-28. September will
be dedicated to the Hermann
Sons Home for the Aged, which
is affectionately called the
“Castle on the Guadalupe” (Riv-
er) by its resident-members. Oc-
tober will be dedicatel to the
broad youth activities program
of the order, including the sum-
mer camp, which is free on a
merit basis for junior members
9 through 13 years of age.
The Hermann Sons lodge at
Boerne is Boerne Hermann Sons
Lodge No. 25. The one at Van
Raub is Paul Vogt Hermann
Sons Lodge No. 234. Both are
mixed lodges of men and women.
Membership representative of
Boerne Lodge is Emil Theis, Box
872, Boerne.
Membership representatives
of Paul Vogt Lodge at Van Raub
are John Collins, Rt. 1, Box 166,
Boerne, and Ida Grosser, Boerne.
Nearing completion is a 22-
room dormitory at Hermann
Sons Home for the Aged near
Comfort.
The addition, which has been
formally dedicated, is the first
major improvement at the home
since it was built in 1916.
It is located northwest of
Comfort, adjacent to the Her-
mann Sons youth camp.
The addition will increase the
home’s capacity from 70 to 95
residents.

SOCIAL SECURITY
Your social security account
number card is one of the most
important documents that you
possess. This reminder comes
from John D. Palmer, social se-
curity district manager in San
Antonio.
Palmer also said that the
proper use of your social secur-
ity card is equally important,
since there are more than 100
million individual accounts in
the social security records.
Your social security account
number card is used to keep a
record of your earnings covered
by the social security act. If
your work is covered under the
act, you must have a social se-
curity account number.
Be sure to show your card to
each employer so that he may
use your name and account num-
ber exactly as they appear on
the card when he reports your
wages. If you are self-employed,
copy your name and account
number on the form you use to
report your net earnings for so-
cial security credit.
For additional information,
see your social security repre-
sentative, Charles S. Engelken
who will be at the DPW building
on Thursday, Aug. 6, 1964, at
9 a.m.
We’re happy to note in Lin
Yutang’s recent prediction that
during the next 50 years there
will be two more world wars. It’s
reassuring to know that there
will be another 50 years.
Mrs. David Epperson is spend-
ing this week in Houston with
her brother and sister-in-law,
Mr. and Mrs. Cliff Whitworth.

and son, Steverof Kerrville, were

New System
Jack Kelly, manager, Kenmore
Farms of Boerne, has pacticed
deferring each pasture at some
period during the year since he
first became a cooperator of the
Kendall Soil Conservation Dis-
trict in early 1946. This practice
has greatly improved his range-
land and consistently produced
him more beef and mohair with
less feed.
Now Kelly is using a definite
deferred-rotation system on part
of the ranch which appears to be
even more beneficial that his old
plan. He has three pastures. His
livestock is moved every three
months. Each pasture is grazed
LEGAL ................................
(Published in the Boerne Star
July 30, 1964 and August 6,
1964.)
for 3 months and rests for 6
months. No pasture is used dur-
ing the same period of the year
except each -third year. Kelly
said, “This system gives my
bluestem and Indian grass plen-
ty of time to make seed and
spread.” There are many dif-
ferent deferred-rotation grazing
systems that can be used. Each
should be patterned to fit the
individual ranch.
Builds Field Terraces
Alex Soell has recently com-
pleted 2 field terraces on his
place north of Comfort. Tech-
nical assistance was furnished
by personnel of the Soil Conser-
vation Service with cost share
by the ASC. The GBRA motor
grader did the work. Soell be-
came a cooperator of the Kendall
Soil Conservation District soon
after he bought his farm sev-
eral years ago.
*****
Start Early and Save Seed
Start your fall deferments
now to allow your better grass
enough time to produce more
and better seed. Did you know
that livestock are now eating
plant growth that would other-
wise produce seedheads later in
the fall? Grazing grasses while
they are “boating” is like graz-
ing oats while they are “boat-
ing.” You would expect to re-
duce your grain production if
you grazed oats during late
March and April. The same ap-
plies to little bluestem if grazed
in July and August.
*****
Repair Terraces Now
Summer time is the best time
to do terrace work. Most old
terraces need some maintenance
each few years. A poor terrace is
worse than no terrace at all. If
your terraces are low or weak,
why not work them up? Much
of this work can be done with a
plow, but some will need heavier
equipment. Now is the time to
see your contractor to get this
work done. If your terraces are
breaking or not functioning
properly, why not let the SCS
technicians check them before
you rebuild. Often times minor
changes will prevent terraces
from continuing to break.

COUNTIANS BUY $47,502
IN U.S. SAVINGS BONDS
Savings bonds sales in Ken-
dall County during the first half
of 1964 totaled $47,502. This re-
port was made recently by Mr.
W. G. Davis, Jr. chairman of the
Kendall County Savings Bonds
committee. 47.5% of the 1964
goal has been achieved.
Savings bonds sales in Texas
during the first half of 1964 to-
taled $75,465,762 or 50.3% of
the 1964 goal of $150,000,000.
“Owning U.S. savings bonds
gives financial strength to every
family and economic strength to
the nation. For this reason the
treasury department is conduct-
ing a “Strong Families” cam-
paign from Labor Day through
Thanksgiving. The goal of this
campaign is the purchase of a
savings bond by every family.
Already a great many national
organizations have pledged their
full cooperation. I am confident
that many of the people of our
county who are members of co-
operating national organizations
will join in this campaign and
buy an extra bond where they
work or bank,” Chairman Davis
announced.
