Loupot, ’32 North Gate Victory Garden Must Keep Producing Conscientious Victory gardeners, especially those living in areas hav ing suitable moisture, plant and harvest throughout the growing season. But J. F. Rosborough, horticulturist for the A. and M. College Extension Service, cau tions against planting any but heat resisting varieties in summer. Eng lish peas, head lettuce, mustard greens, bush beans and radishes are not suited to a hot weather garden. After the white potatoes are dug plant blackeyed or cream peas in the same rows, Rosborough sug gests. When early mustard greens go to seed, follow with okra, green pepper plants, or even swiss chard. Incidentally, swiss chard has more vitamin A than any of the other greens. Leaf lettuce, which is tol erant of warm weather, is an ex cellent successor to early radishes, but gardeners should be careful not to confuse the leaf variety with head lettuce. Grand Rapids or Black Seeded Simpson are recom mended for good summer growth.

Allow three feet o:f space between plants, but watch out for potato bugs. When this pest gets a start on potatoes it will move to eggplants and eat them up in a few days. On the first appearance of the bugs dust the plants with calcium arsenate and they will give no further trouble. A second planting of sweet corn may be made now in order to provide roasting ears over a long period. When it is up 10 to 12 inches thin the stand to two feet apart. All hot weather vegeta bles need more room for moisture and plant food than the early ones. The horticulturist warns against digging potatoes in the morning and allowing them to lie in the sun all day. Dig in the evening and place them in a cool, shady spot immediately to dry for a day or two. Then spread them out on poles or straw in a cool, dark place where air circulates freely. Never have the potatoes more than two layers deep and, if there is room a single layer is even better. Re move all bruised potatoes before storing them. In sharp contrast to conditions prevailing during the World War, the demand for courses in German at Simmons college this year is the greatest in the history of the in stitution. -CRUSHERS’ ASSN.- (Continued from Page 1) milling and for instruction to oil mill operators, both of which are badly needed by our industry. “We hereby express our confi dence that the work which the con struction of this building will en able the A. & M. College of Texas to accomplish will be of important and material aid to the Oil Mill Industry in its contribution to the war effort of this country.” Dean Gilchrist also told the part Texas A. & M. is taking in the present war effort, how the College revised its normal set up to ren der its best effort in speeding up the courses of instruction, and quoted statistics on the number of boys who have gone from the campus into various branches of the armed service. In all, this runs into five figures. In attendance the 15th short course is more than double any previous gathering, It was stated. By banquet time 166 had register ed. In addition some 50 members of the Oil Mill Machinery and Sup ply Assn, have registered. The lat ter were guests of the short course Thursday and Friday, letting this visit and their business meeting fol lowing the banquet take the place of an annual convention held in normal times. At the business meeting of the Oil Mill Machinery and Supply Assn, following the dinner, R. L. McCann, Well Machinery and Sup ply Co., Fort Worth, was elected president; Chas. C. Cantrell, Bauer Bros., Fort Worth, vice president and Olin Brooks, Dallas, was re elected secretary-treasurer. Re tiring president was Webb M. Sow- den. Members of this organization were entertained Friday night at the Avalon Club west of Bryan. New officers elected by the Na tional Oil Mill Superintendents’ Assn, are: 0. M. Chandler, presi dent; R. D. Reeves, Southland Cot ton Oil Co., Corsicana, vice presi dent, and H. E. Wilson was re elected secretary-treasurer. Com prising the new board of directors are: K. A. McLachin, Loving, N. M.; H. B. Glasner, Palestine; George Bittner, Oklahoma City, Okla., and W. A. Davis, Childress. “In all the years the short course has been conducted by the A. & M. College, we have never seen greater interest on the part of our entire industry than in the 1943 short course,” said Miss B. Wal lin, secretary of the Texas Cotton seed Crushers’ Assn. “Superintend ents of cotton oil mills are, more than ever, anxious for all possible assistance in connetion with their crushing problems — especially in the handling of peanuts and soy beans. There has been considerable interest expressed too in the meth ods of meal cooking developed by Dr. Carl Lyman of the Texas Agri cultural Experiment Station.” Dr. Lyman addressed a group of the superintendents Wednesday afternoon, describing the experi ments he and co-workers had con ducted. There is no better protein feed for livestock than cottonseed meal, he stated, but there is a toxic quality in some meal that renders it unsafe in some instances in feed ing swine and uneconomical in feeding poultry in that the yolks of some eggs in cold storage have a tendency to turn dark after a short time. Under ordinary cir cumstances cottonseed meal should not comprise more than 9 per cent of the swine ration. By a method of cooking, giving consideration to time, temperature and moisture content, it has been found that the gossypol in cottonseed meal is so changed that swine will gain and do well where cottonseed meal forms as much as 20 per cent of the ration. These experiments, Dr. Lyman stated, are being continued and the percentage of cottonseed meal in the ration will be increas ed. The 1943 Cotton Oil Mill Opera tors Short Course was streamlined throughout. It opened Monday with a general discussion on peanut and soybean crushing. Milling opera tions were conducted through the week, crushing and cooking pea nuts and soybeans as well as cot tonseed. The Texas A. & M. College has a complete cottonseed oil mill and refining equipment which are used by the Chemical Engineering De partment in student instruction. This mill and equipment were in operation during the short course. -SATURDAY MORNING, MAY 29, 1943 They were presented to the College by the Texas Cottonseed Crushers’ Assn., and additional equipment and supplies have been given or loaned from time to time. When the new oil mill building is erected and more modern equip ment and facilities are available, the College will be in much better position to be of service to the vegetable oil growers and millers of the State. i ^ Welcome Freshmen For the NEW...
