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.

or Purple Beauty well suited to
Texas growing conditions. 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.

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.
