D. LbwUI ■( ( ■ , j The grant was made from the Williams-Waterman fund to com bat dietary diseases, Work on the project Will be carried on in the department of biochemistry and nutrition under the direction of •Dr. P. B. Pearson. Rico is the staple food of more than half of the human race Lewis said, and its nutritive value is in-, fluenced by the degree to which it is milled, and by the method of cooking. From one-third to two- thirds of the thiamine is lost in the usual milling process. Since a lack of thiamine is the cause of beriberi, a nutritional dis-l ease of frequent occurrence in the Orient, finding ways of retaining a high percentage of the vitamin is very important, Lewis stated. Present methods of determining the amount of thiamine take lots of time . and require expensive equipment. Success of the experiments to be made under this grant may lead to the marketing of rice of much higher nutritional value. This in turn would improve the nutritional status of a large number of people.

Moses said that “Texas owes her lasting prominence in the livestock business to the diversity of her natural resources and to policies of land disposal that encouraged large holdings. “Such broad policies of land disposal made possible the great Prairie Cattle Company, which was said to have once owned 'all outdoors’; the XIT ranch of the Capitol Syndicate, extendi n g through 10 counties of the wes tern Panhandle, the three mil lion acres we traded for our state capitol; and in our time the King ranch in South Texas, established in 1853 and the Mat ador ranch in North Texas, es tablished in 1879. each spread holding nearly a million acres inside its fences.” Mi “It has been estimated that in 1 the three decades beginning with 1886 some ten million cattle were driven from Texas the north and ern ranges. The two lion dollars they brought were the first real wealth to percolate the million cBttle were exas to railheads in to stock northwest- te two hundred mil- arteries of Texas business. “The cattle vided into five main pi established in * *w ;■ 8 : l 1 IrM ' ■' ' - if |5 j ii!;’ .

Next, there were the open range Anglo-Saxon ranches before and during the trail drives. “This was followed by the eastern and foreign corporations that came in during the ’boom’ period. In later years there were smaller operators with fenced ranges and blooded stock, And lastly, we have the stock farm ers who devote a portion of their holdings to the production of ilMd crops. . “No longer is knowledge of 'working cattle’ tho prime requis ite for successful cattle ranching. Tho cattleman, more and more, has become a practical husbandman. Basic fundamentals of his profes sion are now taught even in high schools over the country. “While his forebears were criti cal of the ‘white collar feller’ from agricultural colleges, the book learning of the latter has now be come standard procedure of the cow country.” t By H.
