Pioneer Advantages.
"Good cheap beds of Spanish
Moss" are among the advan-
tages of Texas as described
in a book by William Kennedy,
Esq., written in Londan in 1841
after a tour through the Re-
public. He describes in detail
how the moss was steeped in
hot water, dried whipped and
put into the ticking.

Fifty Carloads.
A carload of calves every
three minutes was the selling
record made last October when
the pripe of East Texas calves
and the number of out-of-state
buyers reached a new high in
the Highland Hereford sale at
Marfa. Fifty carloads of calves
were sold in two hours and
thirty minutes. Representatives
of nine states were there to
buy.
*****
Strange Tunes
A motley mixture is poured
into the folk tunes of Texas.
The Negro songs which form,
such a great part of our hand-
ed down music are filled wiith
Spanish and French music and
rhythms. The cowboy songs,
which spell "Texas" to so many
people, are usually adaptations
from songs the cattlemen heard
on the sea and elsewhere and
sang so much on the range that
the music gradually became "as-
sociated with them. Some of the
most original tunes came from
the first Mexican cowboys.

Hens Need Plenty
ol Feed to fteep
Up Egg Production
75% of Feed Goes for
Body Upkeep, 25%
for Eggs
Gray Summit, Mo.—A lien can
"«et by" on migiity little feed, "a-
ture did not plan for a hen o con
sume great quantities of feed. Hut
nature's original plan for e^g pro-
duction was only 15 "0 eggs per
year.
The weight jf the ejrjjs laid In
a year in nature's plan was 'lever
more than four pounds, and usually
no more than 'wo pounds. Today
vve ask a four or five-pound hen to
produce from fifteen to thirty
pounds of eggs a year. The differ-
ence in egg production obviously
pius* come fn-.n a difference in
quantity of feed eaten. A Irrn can't
la*- many eggs 011 a skimpy ration.
75% for Body Upkeep
Seventy-five percent of all the
feed a hen eats is used to take care
of her own body needs. What's
left over goes into making eggs,
lii ds that get only small nmout's
of feed, or birds hat are fed In-
complete and unbalanced rations do
not get 'he extm "J5 percent they
need for keeping up egg production,
and consequently some of the feed
they do eat is wasted. The poul-
tryman's problem is to see that each
he-* gets the extra 25 percent of
fee'' in properly bnlanced form so
she can pay her complete board bill
by [Tutting an egg in the nest.
Production tests at the Purina
Experimental Farm show that a
few extra pounds of feed per day
to each hundred laying birds may
easily mean the difference between
SO percent product'^ nnd GT to 70
percent production—the difference
between profit and loss.
More Feed; More ^ggs
Sixteen to eighteen pounds of
feed for 100 hens per day may be
pnough for hens to "get by" on,
but they can't make eggs on it.
W. D. Williams
Asks for Second
Term in Office
Monitor To Make
Improvements in '38
In authorizing his announce-
ment for re-election to the
office of County Tax Assessor-
Collector, Mr. W. D. Williams,
present encumbent refers the
voters of Wood County to the
remarkably efficient record of
his present tenure of office.
Sleeted for his first term in j
1936, he is seeking re-election
for his second term at the
hands of the Democratic electo-
rate of Wood 'County with the
assurance of a continued effort
to serve the people of the
county with the best of his
ability.
Mr. Williams has maintained
an efficient office force, keep-
ing the tax records in shape
and up-to-date at all times,
and has proven himself a
valuable public servant to the
citizenship of this county.
Although a valiant worker
! n the ranks of the Democratic
I party in this county through-
out his life, this is the first
county political office Mr. Wil-
liams has ever sought or held.
Minor improvements are
planned for The Monitor and
The Record for 1938. Several
cases of new type for news-
paper display and job print-
ing have been ordered as well
as a new size "liner". The
larger "liner" will make the
paper more easily read. It will
be the same size as that used
by the Los Angeles Times
won first prize in 1937 foj
typography.
The management is
planning to install several
pieces of machinery which
aid in better and faster prin]
ing.

Little Difference in Feed Makes Big
r:fference in Egg Production.
When consumption of feed is step-
ped up to 22 or 24 pounds per day,
production rises rapidly, especially
in the fall and winter months when
production does not come without
conscious effort. Birds that have
high egg production possibilities
bred Into them can respond and
give a creditable return on their
breeding only when they get enough
of the right kind of feed.
The poultryman's job is to "feed
the eggs out of the birds." "Feed-
ing eggs out of birds" involves the
double job of feedinp a properly
compounded mash, and of getting
a sufficient amount of feed into
them
Step Up Feed Intake
One of the most common and suc-
cessful methods of stepping up feed
intake in the fall and early winter
is by extending daylight, through
use of lights. Practices in the use
of lights varies, though the most
common practice is to turn them
on at four or five o'clock in the !
morning and allow them to burn
until daylight. Some poultrymen
use lights both morning and eve-
ning, and a few good poultrymen
like the practice of keeping a dim
light burning all night
Fresh feed in the hoppers once
each day will also interest birds In
eating more feed. Sometimes just
stirring the mash In the hoppers
every hour or two will make the
birds want to eat.
Another way to get extra feed
Into birds Is by feeding moistened
mash. Moist mash feeding, how-
ever, has Its disadvantages since it
involves extra labor in mixing a wet
mash. Extra feeding troughs are
required, and another sanitation
handicap is added.
Checkers High In Food Value
Recent advancements in poultry
management have made possible all
the advantages of "wet mash" feed-
ing without any of the disadvan-
tages. This feeding method de-
veloped at the Purina Experimental
Farm calls for a noon feeding of
three to four quarts to the hundred
birds, of a compressed, complete,
balanced feed called Layena check-
ers. At first, just a few Layena
checkers are fed each day, scatter-
ing them right on top of thr mash
in the hoppers. Then, as the birds
begin to learn what they nre. the
amount is increased. liens get
more food value from this com-
pressed feed thereby increasing
their feed intake. In severe \ eath
er, a light feeding of checkers in
the morning will help hold up pro
duction.

CONFIRMING President Roose-
velt's position that there is an
acute housing shortage, even in the
most remote sections of the country,
Continental Oil Company, according
to an announcement by the Com-
pany, has started to meet the situa-
tion as it exists in several oil produc-
ing areas and at its refineries in the
Southwest by erecting a number of
single family houses for occupancy
by its working forces. Some sixty
houses of four and five room® hare
already been completed, with forty-
three now under construction.
Continental, already well known
in the oil industry for its "good
housekeeping" practices at its re-
fineries and field pumping stations,
is equipping each unit with a mod-
ern kitchen and tiled bath room and
is landscaping the surrounding
grounds. Most houses will also be
provided with garages. .
