Texas yards will be on parade
this year of th& Texas Centen-
nial and Texas rural home mak-
ers have been getting ready for

In Austin County Mrs. H. A.
Neumann yard demonstrator of
Now Ulm began her work in
Pctobor J1984 by preparing a
Gutting bed in which she put
out 117 cuttings of evergreens
and roses to be rooted and trans-
planted to her yard in 1935.
; Miss Celesta Albert another
yard demonstrator in Austin
County increased the size of her
"yard so that it would correspond
with the largo house then plant-
ed native shrubs in a screen
planting across the back to cut
off the view of the service
buildings. Youpon coral berry
lantanas and wild orange were
used.
Mrs. Fred Einkauf yard dem-
onstrator from Wallis began
her work by measuring a bed all
the way around the house four
feet wide which was then dug
fourteen inches deep fertilized
worked over and raked after
-which coral berry cherry laurel
youpon Japanese quince pome-
granate and bridal wreath were
planted as foundation plantings.
Mrs. Alvin Bravenec of Nel-
sonville beautified her yard with
native shrubs which her husband
said ne was glad to transplant
for her because 'they "looked so
pretty in the woods."
Preliminary to this work the
home demonstration agent held
a training school for her yard
demonstratorrs ast spring in
which they learned how to iden-
tify plant material ball and bur-
lap them foritrahsplanting and
trench them. '

side parks will dot main hign
ways of Texas soon as the result

places where the tired motorists
may rest play and eat. Each
park separted from the highway

benches and tables. Drives will
be graveled and trees and shrubs
will be set out.

is in common with' ifho other1 ma-
jor killers is a criminal whofi
work is effectively carried on
under cover of ignorance stat-
ed Dr. John W. rown State
Health Officer.
Garelofilsn'ess is 'its greatest
ally. How otherwise explain the
conduct of persons who despite
poor appetite faulty digestion
loss of weight loss of strength
or a sensation of tiredness in the
afternoons refuse to admit that
their condition requires profes-
sional investigation? Personal
cooperation is necessary if we.
would cut down the ravages of
this preventable disease.
Tuberculosis is no respector of
persons; no one is immune to
tuberculosis infection. Children
who are in repeated contact with
tuberculous persons almost in-
variably contract the infection.
All children therefore should be
protected at all times from pro-
tracted exposure to infection
from persons known or suspect-
ed of having the disease.
Removal of the contact cases
protection of the infant and very
young and prompt professional
advice when symptoms suggest-
ive of tuberculosis arise will do
much to reduce t he tuberculosis
death rate. But as has been in-
dicated these (measures by their
very nature are largely outside
the province of health officials.
The problem is quite definitely
a personal one.
BELTON JOURNAL MAKES
FIRST ERROR IN 71 YEARS
(From Belton Journal)
In the announcement of J. K.
Evetts for district attorney as
it appeared in The Journal the
linotype operator told the world
he was a "persecutor" of vio-
lators of the law during the
time he served as county attor-
ney of Bell County. The'same op-
erator declared the genial can-
didate t o be engaged in the
practice of "flaw" in this city.
Acknowledging perhaps the
first error to appear in this pa-
per since its establishment 71
years ago the political editor
at fhfi same time hastens to in-
fisMm 4-1. n .i..!l?r.nr1 ...nlr1 4-lin 4- 1 f.
i.uiiu 111c uivm&eu wuxjlu tiicit iui.
Evetts is positively not a per-
secutor and there's no flaw in
his law practice. The error is
regretted and it is hoped Mr.
Evetts will pass a box of good
5c cigars to the mechanical de-
partment of The Journal and
forget about the keyboard slip.

New Chevrolet Truck on Economy-Safety Run
k
Carrying a 10000-lb. cement block from Los Armeies to New York a lj-ton Chevrolet truck one of the new
1936 models just introduced demonstrated that safe driving means economy. Speed limits were observed in every
community with 35 m p.h. the maximum on the open road. The 3511.4 miles were completed on two quarts of oil
nnd 308.6 gallons of gasoline nt n cost of 01.6 cents per mile or one-third of n cent per ton mile. The entire run was
completed without any mechanical failure repairs or even a scratched fender. The illustrations show the test truck
end features of the new 1936 models. Coupe type cabs with solid steel roof full-flo'ating rear axle nnd full-length
water jackets ore some of the improvements. In the lower right Harry Hartz who drove the cross-continent test
is seen beside the 10000-lb. block. The test was officially observed by the American Automobile Association.
