Co-op Buying Saves
Hauling and Makes
ForMoreExchanges
Pooling orders and working out
a two-way haul for exchanging
such things as wheat for peaches
or feed for syrup may mean better
distribution of agricultural com
modities and better fed Texans.
C. E. Bowles and Myrtle Murray,
specialists of the A. and M. Col
lege Extension Service, say co
operative group purchasing offers
one of the best ways to get rid of
seasonal surpluses and make it
easier for people to follow The
Texas Food Standard, a simple
guide to a good daily diet.
Marketing committees of many
county home demonstration coun
cils have pioneered in cooperative
buying in Texas. Truckloads of
citrus fruit, wheat and pineapple
have been ordered, delivered, and
distributed among home demon
stration club women far from the
localities where they are produced.
Syrup, honey, sweet potatoes and
other food crops may be purchased
cooperatively, and Number 4 wheat
for feed is being released from
storage at prices which compare
favorably with other grains.
The specialists add that farmers’
cooperatives and other groups
can easily pool their members’ or
ders for grain or fruit and elim
inate much of the cost and waste
which often result from less direct
distribution.
Here is one example of this type
of cooperation. In the Panhandle,
a federation of about 50 local
wheat growers’ cooperatives has
consented to serve as a clearing
house for information regarding
sources of wheat. And in the West
Crosstimbers, a fruit growers’ as
sociation is prepared to perform
the same service for groups, wish
ing to purchase truck loads of
peaches.
Waste Fats Turned
In to Government
Help War Effort
Waste fat homemaker who: save
in their kitchens for the nation’s
salvage campaign may one day
sink an enemy battleship or help
crumble axis fortifications on
fronts the world over.
Grease makes glycerine, and
glycerine makes gunpowder, ex
plains Louise Bryant, specialist in
home management for the A. and
M. College Extension Service. She
explains that every 10 pounds of
fat saved in the nation’s campaign
will produce one pound of glycerine
for gunpowder or other explosives
needed in winning the war. The
two billion pounds of fat wasted
in American kitchens every year
would provide two hundred mil
lion pounds of glycerine Undle Sam
badly needs, according to the Bu
reau of Home Economics.
Recently the War Production
Board arranged with meat dealers
to receive some of this waste fat
from housewives, and the A. and
M. Extension Service will cooper
ate with state and county salvage
committees in helping every rural
family in Texas do its part. Co
operation in the national fat-sav
ing campaign is in line with the
war-time Extension program—the
Victory Demonstration—to which
thousands of rural Texans are
pledged.
The homemakers’ part in the
campaign is to use grease wisely
in cooking and take her surplus
fats to her nearest meat dealer or
freezer locker plant. She’ll receive
money—probably five cents per
pound. Fat should be strained and
poured into clean, wide-mouthed
cans, such as a coffee can. “Keep
the fat in the refrigerator or some
other dark, cool place until you
have a pound or more,” the spe
cialist suggests.
Using fat drippings in prepar
ing food will help in the move
ment, since it will prevent draw
ing on commercial stocks of fats
and oils. Every tablespoon used
means buying less fat.
Some homemakers have mistak
enly feared a soap shortage would
make it necessary to save their
fats for making soap at home. But
soap is a by-product of glycerine,
Miss Bryant explains, so large sup
plies will be available.
THE BATTALION
-SATURDAY MORNING, JULY 25, 1942
New RadioProgram
Stars Neighborly
Help to Citizens
With the opening of a new Gov
ernment program “Neighborhood
Call,” the Office of War Informa
tion inaugurates a series of 15-
minute transcribed programs
which will be distinctly different
from anything you have heard
from official sources to date. This
program will be heard at 11:30 on
Thursday, July 23, on Radio Sta
tion WTAW.
Presented by the Office of Price
Administration, the new series at
tacks the problems of the average
household, the average housewife,
and the average storekeeper in a
simple, direct, forceful manner.
The program consists of a series
of visits by the neighbor who drops
in each week by way of the family
radio to discuss some of the things
that “Dad” and “the Missus” are
vitally interested in today—the ef
fects of Price Control and Rent
Control and Rationing on the fam
ily pocket-book and the neighbor
hood way of life.
With the. aid of dramatic inter
ludes, the neighbor drives home
the need for patriotic co-operation
on the part of everyone. He does
this with homely analogy, quiet
philosophy and interesting story
telling. He does not believe in ser
monizing and he is as opposed to
political spell-binding as he is to
tire bootleggers. He is just a
neighbor who has solutions to of
fer for some of the problems that
are bothering his neighbors.
You will hear what is being done
by the Government in your behalf,
what the /Government has done to
keep down the cost of food and
clothing and rent and how the av
erage housewife can help to pro
tect her own pocketbook.
Listening to the Neighbor, you
learn the implications of the great
economic battle that is being
waged to protect you and your
neighbor.
“Neighborhood Call” is written
by Will McMorrow of the Radio
Division, Office of War Informa
tion.

requirements, and the general de
mand.”
The forester suggests that it is
profitable to plant seedlings where
desirable species will not reseed
satisfactorily by natural methods.
It pays to thin and prune young
forest trees where such improve
ment becomes necessary. Some of
the fresh cut saplings removed as
thinnings should be treated with
a suitable chemical for fence posts.
The lowest cost method is using
sections of pipe, or other equip
ment, for the end-flow treatment.
This increases the life of non
durable posts 10 to 15 years. Coun
ty agricultural agents have infor
mation on treating posts or other
timbers where decay resistance is
important.

Camp Fire Rules
To Prevent Forest
Fires Are Given
“Prevet careless sabotage of our
fields and forests—be certain your
camp fire is out before leaving it.”
■ This is the plea of Marvin Hall,
State Fire Insurance Commission
er, and directed to picnic groups
and vacationists. With the vaca
tion and out-of-doors picnic season
approaching its peak, the Commis
sioner warns that open camp fires
can become destructive.
“If the fire is properly built,”
he said, “it will burn better and
cook a meal faster. If it is prop
erly protected, there is no likeli
hood of its igniting surrounding
brush or grass.”
A few precautions, carefully ob
served, will make an out-of-doors
trip more enjoyable and prevent
destruction of the country-side by
fire. Hall offers the following sug
gestions on camp fires:.
Clear all brush and grass from
a space five feet in diameter. Build
the fire in a wide hole in the cen
ter of it.
A large camp fire is likely to
get out of control, while a small
one is safer and more satisfactory
for cooking.
Fires should be built away from
trees, logs and grass. Fire in a
spot exposed to strong wind is ex
ceedingly dangerous.
Make certain the fire is com
pletely out before leaving. Soak it
with water, or cover with sand or
earth.
Be sure, when out-of-doors, that
matches, cigars, cigarets and to
bacco from pipes are out before
tossing them aside. The best meth
od is to stamp them out to prevent
a fire from starting.
Summer Sicknessln
Turkeys Cured By
Using Simple Drugs
Blackhead is one of the serious
problems confronting turkey grow
ers, with poults of one to three or
four months old most affected,
says W. A. Boney, Jr., poultry
veterinarian of the Texas A. & M.
College Extension Service. The
source of the disease is a one-cell
organism which is taken into the
body in the cecal worm egg picked
up from contaminated soil or food.
The principal symptoms are
drooping and decline in feeding,
and the death rate soon becomes
very high if preventive measures
are not adopted. There is no prac
tical treatment available, Dr. Bon
ey says, but regular worming with
phenothiazine or tobacco dust has
proved beneficial as a preventive.
Phenothiazine powder is given
on the basis of one pound to 1,000
birds. It is easily mixed by placing
one pound of the drug in 60 pounds
of mash and feeding six pounds
of the mixture' to each 100 birds
for two days. Tobacco dust at the
rate of two to four percent easily
is given for one to two weeks. If
possible, move the birds to clean
ground and isolate the sick.
Another disease, trichomoniasis,
closely resembles blackhead. It
also is caused by a one-cell organ
ism picked up directly from soil,
water, litter and feed, and affects
all ages. Dr. Boney says he has
observed more of it this year than
any other disease, and losses have
been large. The birds show gen
eralized weakness and droopiness
when attacked, along with watery,
foamy, whitish diarrhea.
Treatment, he adds, is strictly
a problem of sanitation. By ad
ministering a mixture of two
ounces of coppersulphate (bues-
tone) in one pint vinegar, and
moving the birds if possible, good
results can be expected. The mix
ture should be given in quantities
of one tablespoonful to each gal
lon of drinking water in a non-
metal container for four or five
days.
