Soil Conservation Notes
From Jacksonville Camp
The Soil Conservation Associa-
tion met Friday afternoon at the
camp as scheduled.
C. K. DeBu^k was unanimously
elected secretary ^treasurer of the
organization to fill the office for-
merly held by I. H. Copeland who
has recently been transferred to
Lindale.
Only a small representation
was present, however, some very
definite steps were taken toward
pooling a cooperative order for
hairy vetch,, pasture seed and
oats to be used for fall planting.
W.. K. Strother, .president, ap-
pointed C. K. DeBusk and Allen
Goforth on a committee to'make
arrangements for handling the
order.
Newell A. Hogan, educational
adviser for the camp, gave a brief
discussion on educational work
and opportunities offered the
boys in camp. Hogan also pointed
out the relation between the
field work and the educational
program, showing how the two
are working together in striving
for one ultimate end.
Winter legumes provide an ex-
cellent opportunity to build up
soil fertility during fall, winter,
and spring months when adapted
varieties are used. Hairy vetch is
the most winter hardy of the
winter annual legumes and has
been found to be well adapted to
this locality where proper cultur-
al methods ar6 given. Experiment
Station results have proven that
a good crop of vetch turned und-
er at the proper time not only
adds readily available plant
food to the soil, but adds much
organic matter as well which is a
permanent soil building practice.
Hairy vetch should be planted
on land that is to be planted to
cotton in order to get the maxi-
mum growth before the crop is
turned under.. It is not advisable
to plant vetch before corn due
to the early planting season of
corn. •
The proper cultural methods
are outlined as follows:
1. Plant on a well prepared
seed bed. Flat breaking is pre-

Panna Maria, the oldest Polish!
settlement in the United States, j
was established near San Antonio j
in 1853 by a grou£ of immigrants j
who had been practically driven |
out of their native land. Penni- j
less and disheartened, the settlers
were aided by nearby ranchers
and more fortunate colonists un-
til they could support themselves.
With thrift, persistence and
work the group soon developed
into a thriving community. Many
of the original homes, built of
hand-quarried stone because
there was no wood, still remain
in the modern Panna Maria.
News is flashed into Texas
homes by a total of 909 publica-
tions according to the 1937 Ayer
& Son Director. Of this number
773 are newspapers. With 579 in-
corporated communities in the
state, 563 of them have newspa-
pers located there. A great ma-,
jority of these papers,620, are
weeklies, 131 are dailies, 20 are
semi-weeklies and 2 are month-
lies.
Down in the Valley is located
probably the largest snake ranch
in the world. "Snakeville" is op-
erated by W. S. "Snake" King,
one of the foremost collectors of
reptiles in the United States. He
supplies large museums and
parks both here and in foreign
countries with rare specimens.
Most of his pets come from Mexi-
co. He sells them by the pound
the price varying according to
varity and condition. In his life-
lime he has handled nearly three
hundred thousand snakes.
With the highest percentage
of church-going per capita of any
state in the nation, Texas claims
2,280,366 church members. There
are 63 denominations in the state
and 15,062 churches, according to
the U. S. religious census in 1926.
Leading denominations are Bap-
tist, Roman Catholic and Metho-
dist.

2. Plant seed at the rate of 20
pounds per acre. Time of planting
should be between October 1st
and 15th. Drilling seed is preferr-
ed, however, seed sown broadcast
by hand is satisfactory.
3. Inoculate seed thoroughly
with a reliable inoculant.
4. Apply 150 pounds of super-
phosphate per acre either prior
to or at the time of planting.
5. Turn under two weeks be-
fore cotton planting time. This
allows time for decomposition,
making plant food more readily
available.
These points should be kept in
mind by those planning to plant

Conservation farming practices
provide "all weather" protection
for farmers' fields whether the
season be wet or dry, according
to Allen P. Goforth, technician in
charge of the Soil Conservation
area near Jacksonville.
When rainfall is excessive, such
practices as terracing, strip crop-
ping, contour cultivation, con-
tour furrowing, the use of cover
crops, and other approved meth-
ods of erosion control slow up
run-off water, thereby reducing
erosion and increasing absorption
When rainfall is deficient and
moisture is at a premium, water
that has previously been stored
in soil protected by conservation
practices promotes better growth
of crops in cultivated fields and
better growth of grasses in pas-
tures, Goforth said.
On the steeper slopes, where wa-
ter runs off swiftly and erosion
progresses at a rapid rate when
the land is unprotected, trees
and permanent hay crops serve
both to protect the land from
erosion when rains come and to
retain moisture in the soil against
long periods of drought.

CHILLS! CHILLS!
CHILLS!
Don't Let Chills and Fever Get You Down—
Nash's Tonic Will Break Chills
When Mr. Nash, the drug man-
ufacturer was a small boy he
says most all the pleasure of life
was taken away from him by
having chills and fevers in the
summer and fall. He says he
took pills and capsules until the
sight of them made him sick. He
made a vow at that time if he
everever knew anything about
medicine he would certainly
make a formula that would cure
Chills and Malaria.
Nash's Tonic Perfected After
Years of Study and Experiments
So, says Mr. Nash, "I studied
Chemistry, Pharmacy, and Mate-
ria Medica with a view of mak-
ing a medicine that would help
the people of the South by re-
moving every trace of Malaria
from their systems." Nash's Ton-
ic was not made in a day—it was
formulated after years of exper-
iments and study and today a
factory employing many girls
runs full force making this tonic.
At times two shifts of workers
are necessary, even working into
the nights, to keep the trade sup-
plied with this efficient Malaria
Medicine. Although this medi-
cine has only been on the mar-
ket a few years the sale has
reached hundreds of thousands of
bottles every year Nash's Tonic is
backed by a money back guaran-
tee on every bottle sold.
Don't Wait Until You Have
Chills and Fever
Nash's Tonic is different from
most Malaria medicines as it acts
on the bowels removing the pois-
ons from the system and at the
same time combats the Malaria
Germs by removing every trace
from the blood stream If you will
take Nash's Tonic for a few
weeks and then have a blood test
made you will find every trace of
Mal&ria has been removed from
your blood. So don't wait until
you are sick in bed with chills
but begin taking Nash's C. & L.
Tonic just as soon as you have
the Malaria symptoms, such as
that lazy draggy feeling, that loss
of pep and energy, that tired out,
nervous feeling, that dull head-
ache and backache. Just as soon
as these symptoms appear get
you a fifty cent bottle of Nash's
Tonic and see how quickly you
will feel a hundred per cent bet-
ter. You take no chances on
Nash's as .every bottle is absolute-
ly guaranteed by your druggists
to give you much benefit or your
money refunded. Rusk druggists
recommend Nash's Tonic and
back up the guarantee.
