Check On-Farm
Grain Storage
Before Harvest
COLLEGE STATION - Ad-
vanced planning in checking "on-
far m" grain storage may save
valuable time during harvest,
says W .S. Allen, extension agri-
cultural engineer. Leaky, run
down, and unclean storage build-
ings will increase hazards from
insect and rodent damage, the
two factors usually responsible
for the loss of quality in farm
storage.
A good storage unit should
meet certain standards. The roof
should be weather tight, the
walls should be strong, sound,
and rain proof. An potential wat-
er leaks should be patched and
caulked to prevent the entry of
moisture from the outside. Cov-
er the openings in the walls and
gable ends of the buildings with
screen wire to keep out rats and
birds, and us 1-4 inch mesh wire
around the tops of wooden bins.
Lining the lower part of doors
and door openings with strips of
metal sheets will keep rats from
gnawing holes at the corners.
Check the foundations of wood-
en buildings to "oe sure they are
not decayed, and repair any
foundation deterioration. Allen
says.
Be sure al trash, weeds, and
grass are clear from around the
bins to help reduce rat popula-
tion and insect infestation. A
poisoning program to conrol rats
and a fumigation program to
control insects can be recom-
mended by your county agri-
cultural agent.
Store dry grain or provide
equipment for drying the grain
in storage. The maximum mois-
ture content for safe storage in
Texas is 12 percent in most
areas. Establish a checking pro-
gram and check the grain per-
iodically to insure that it is dry,
free of insects and that quality
is being maintained. A little ad-
vanced planing and proper sup-
ervision will insure a quality
stored product for later sale or
feeding, concludes Allen.

IT'S THE LAW
(EDITOR'S NOTE: This legal
newsfeature is prepared under
the supervision of the State
Bar of Texas, and distributed
as a public service by the
lawyers of Texas. Every ef-
fort is made to insure that it
reflects an accurate interpre-
tation of the law as applicable
to the stated facts.)
JURY DUTY
Jury duty is an experience
everybody ought to have.
In a criminal case twelve jur-
ors have a duty to do justice as
each one sees it, and yet be un-
animous. In most trials both sides
have much to say, and the evi-
dence is conflicting. The twelve
jurors vary in their ability, tem-
perament, character, education,
and their experience in the
world, and in tne question at
stake.
Yet a jury made up of both
sexes, with wide age and educa-
tional differences, jobs and ori-
gins must all come up with the
same verdict. Upon their ver-
dict much depends—the life or
liberty of others, and the public
good. So it may take them days
of talking among themselves, all
to agree.
Jury duty calls for insight,
common sense, courage, tact,
fairmindedness, patience, espe-
cially toward the jurors who dis-
agree with you), good humor,
tolerance, balance, willingness tc
hear others out and change one's
mind, readiness to go over and
over the facts to find something
to bring agreement. In short,
jury duty demands a "decent
respect to the opinions" of oth-
ers.
More and more women share
civic duties especially as jurors.
Time was in Texas when wom-
en could not serve on juries.
They still cannot in four states.
A jury finds facts. It hears and
weighs evidence and then comes
to a verdict. It does not make the
law—the legislature does; and
the judge "charges" or instructs
the jury concerning the law ap-
plicable to the particular case it
is considering.
The judge will tell you not to
find the accused guilty until he
is proved so under strict rules
of evidence. If you have any
"reasonable doubt,"—not imagi-
nary or far-fatched—acquit the
accused.
Civil cases do riot demand a
moral certainty, merely the
"preponderance" of what you re-
gard as reliable and believable
evidence.
(This newsfeature. prepared
by the State Bar or Texas, !s
written to inform—not to ad-
vise. No person should ever
apply or interpret any law
without the aid of an attorney
who is fully advised concern-
ing the facts involved, be-
cause a slight variance h facts
may change the anoltcadon of
the law.)

Shamrock Has
New Marine Fuel
The Shamrock Oil and Gas
Corporation announced in Ama-
nita this week that a new pro-
duct, marine fuel, will soon be
available to its dealers.
Shamrock recognized that des-
pite the boating boom which has
swept the country, there were
few, if any, locations where boat
owners in Shamrock's marketing
territory could buy a high oc-
tane, unleaded fuel specifically
designed for marine use. Sham-
rock's new marine fuel is rated
at 38 research octane, and con-
tains no tetraethyl lead addi
tives. Lead is normally addled to
both regular and premium gaso-
lines to raise the octane rating.
Many outboard motor manu-
facturers and owners contend
that lead additives cause harm to
their engines. The new marine
fuel is designed for those engines
which require unleaded fuel, andj
it performs equally well in those
engines which require unleaded
fuel, and it performs equally
well in those engines that can
use leaded fuels.
To get this high octane fuel
without adding lead requires
special refining facilities, and
Shamrock blends it from high
octane base stocks at
Kee refinery near Dumas;1
To facilitate handling and
pensing, the new product
