TENANT FARMER ON
STATE COMMITTEE
J. T. ST. CLAIR
J. T. St. Clair, the only farm ten-
ant member of the Texas Advisory
Committee of the Farm Security
Administration which met in Dallas,
March jl2. A joint conference was
held with the Oklahoma committee
and the regional staff, project man-
agers, and district supervisors of the
FSA organization. Mr. St. Clair is
engaged in farming in Baylor County
where he has coped successfully with
the problems peculiar to his section
of the state. FSA is attacking the
farm tenancy problem on two fronts;
by helping tenants to improve their
situation as tenants through improv-
ed methods and longer leases, and
second, by assisting them directly to
buy their own farms through long-
time loans and low interest rates.

after which a round-table discussion,
followed. One new member was ad-
ded to the enrollment.
Mrs. Clara Campbell invited the
club to meet with her on March 18,
at which time Miss Maggie Peach,
County Home Demonstration Agent,
will be present. All members are
urged to be present, and visitors are

ASSOCIATION TO MEET
Whitewash Advised
For Poultry Diseases
“In case of an actual outbreak of
diseases in the poultry flock it is ad-
visable to use for disinfreting pur-
poses a whitewash made by dissolv-
ing one pound of commercial lye and
two and one-half of water-slacked
lime in five and one-half gallons of
water”, Mrs. M. A. Turner told the
North Grand Saline Home Demon-
stration Club ladies at their meeting
held at the home of Mrs. Grady
Myers on March 8. “This solution
should be tightly covered to prevent
deterioration, if not used at once",
she continued.
Good disinfectants destroy the
germs of contagious diseases, and in
some cases external parasites, such
as lice and mites. Since the gremici-
dal power of disinfecting solution is
rapridly spent by contact with organio
mutter, it is alwuys important to give
special attention to the cleaning of
the premises, the removal of all lit-
ter, contaminated soil, and manure.
Mrs. Nora Green, one of the club
members, who is going on an extend-
ed visit with her daughter, Mrs.
Emmett Vincent of Oklahoma, City
was given a handkerchief shower at
this meeting.
The next meeting of the local group
will be held nt the home of Mrs. Jim
Cheser on March 22. Each member
is urged to be present and visitors
are welcome.
Approximately 1500 teachers from
24 counties will meet in Tyler on
March 18-19 for the fourth anno*!
convention of the northeast division
of the Texas State Teachers Associa-
tion, according to an announcement
made today by J. M. Hodges, super-
intendent of the Tyler schools. Open
house for visiting teachers will ho
held throughout the day Friday, and
an elaborate exhibit illustrating tho
work accomplished in the Tyler schools
will be on display in the gymnasium.
Featured speakers for the general
session recently announced by Dr. &
H. Whitley, division president, will bo
experts in various educational fields,
including such nationally known
figures as Dr. A. L. Crabb, Professor
of Educational Administration, Pea-
body College; Dr. Willis Sutton, Sup-
erintendent of Schools, Atlanta, Geor-
gia; and Cameron Beck, Director at
Personnel, New York Stock Exchange
Institute.
HAILSTORM AT YOAKl’M
DAMAGES TOMATOES
YOAKUM, Texas, March 15—A
hailstorm which passed through tho
Yoakum tomato belt early Tuesday
caused heavy damage to some sec-
tions.
North of Yoakum crops suffered
about 15 per cent injury. Absence of
wind saved greater toll.
Growers said nil plants in this area
were in the field, many were bloom-
ing and a general hailstorm or front
would prove disastrous.

familiar by the time this spring is
over.
The loose, cleverly gathered cos-
tumes that created such a flurry this
winter are going to stay with us a
while longer, and will soon have a
new member of the society—the dol-
man silhouette. That wide-armed,
spacious-sleeved style was shown in a
few fur evening jackets last fall, but
its big moments are still ahead.
Fullness is moving up to the shoul-
ders, having started in the skirt and
worked up to the bust line. Instead of
just plain “Fullness for w a r d,”
“Straight from the shoulder” will be
the password for dresses and coats
now.
It hardly seems necessary to say
anything more about pleats, so widely
proclaimed have they been; tucks, t • >,

ticularly the fine ones.
Newer in the spotlight are wide
tucks or folds, another expression of
the soft, loose treatment. Sometimes
these folds have the casual, unstudied

Mr. Nash, the Drug Manufacturer,
Says It Is Almost a Crime
To Be Sick.
Most of the sickness this time of the
year is left-over ailments caused by
the Winter diseases, Colds and In-
fluenza. These Winter diseases cause,
in many instances, Constipation, Bil-
iousness and disordered Stomach and
Kidneys. If corrected in time these
are, or may be, minor troubles but if
left to go on many cause serious ali-
ments later on. It behooves each and
