Secretary Crawford is predicting that the 1931 fair will eclipse any former event, and we are all hoping his will be fully realized One new ieature never seen before at Ihe fait will be a beauty contest of Fannin county girls who are to hr dressed In cotton dresses of their own make. This of itself will be a unique event, since very few girls ore seen nowadays attired entirely in cotton dresses. One rule in this contest is that each girl must make her own dress. The contest is open to every community or town in the county. The 4-H Club Women and Girls have already gone to work and whatever they undertake, you can rest fully assured will be put over.

Other organizations as well as towns and communities will ulso have entries. Altogether. thus attraction bids fair to be an interesting as well as instructive ieature. Speaking of having something to eat among the rural people this winter and next spring, we are reminded of the very unusual the D. Club women have put forth In that direction this summer.

Miss Eldridge, Home Demonstration Agent, estimates that the MO or 400 club members, have put up between 125.000 and 150,000 cans of vegetables, fruits, preserves, meat, corn. etc. Manv women have put up as high as 450 cans, all of which means that these club women will have plenty to eat this winter, and that is certainly very gratifying thought. Not only have the H. D.

Club women conserved great quantities of food, but other women who are not identified with the clubs have likewise put up thous. ends of canned vegetables, preserves, etc. It Is not necessary to add that country women who have used light In preparing something to eat for winter are not paying very much lieed to the low price of cotton. It Is a wise merchant who an enlarged advertising campaign September 1st to sccure his share of the fall and winter busines. Visitors to the Muenster community some days ago found a prosperous community whose citizens are not worried about laws regarding 1 mrtallmcnt of cotton acreage They do not grow the blamed stuff, 1 turn their eiforts to diversified farming.

Every farm is supplied with beef cattle, milk cows, poultry, hogs, and good gardens Every pan- liy is-filled with conned goods and the big barns are filled aith grain crops. prosperity and happiness around Muenster The a me measure of prosperity can be brought into this community when our practice the kind ot 1 found around Muenster.

New Tax (lauses Worry to Many Officials Secretary (rawford Extend Thanks to the Fair Rooster AUSTIN, Aug, 2J) Texas' new aret tax which became effective less than a week ago has put smokers in a quandars. Army officials at Fort Sam Houston have ruled that the state tax making the hxk I Will tours, cannot bo collected on cigarets sold to the army personnel at past exchanges. The state comptroller has asked the state attorney general for hLs view.

He apparently doubts that smoking Is an official duty of the army. With the three rents a package fax by the stale added to the existing federal tax many smokers using roll-vour-own devices. Jas. Bass, U. S.

It was noticeable that all cropr. are ex- teedingly promising in Uie sections visited, there being but very few exceptions This Is particularly true of grain crops, such as mflo malse, kaffir corn, while the cotton locks like a bumper crop.
