Sheep and Goats On Texas Farms Are on Increase

Sheep and goats continued to in­crease in number on Texas farms and ranches during 1941, says W. R. Nisbet, animal husbandman of the A. & M. Extension Service. Several million lambs are produced yearly in the state.

The expansion in sheep is being made at the expense of the cattle population in new areas, Nisbet ob­serves, adding that “some of the heavily stocked ranges could carry fewer sheep and more cattle.”

Sheep are pushing most rapidly west and north from the Edward plateau. Answers to parasite prob­lems would permit more rapid ex­pansion to the south and east where ranges seem superior for sheep.

While many lambs are kept for replacement in the current expan­sion, most of the wether lambs leave the state as feeders. Nisbet suggests an expansion in lamb feeding.

County agricultural agents have promoted a substantial number of lamb feeding demonstrations, largely through 4-H Club program.

Mohair production is next in im­portance to wool and lambs. The 16 to 17 million pounds of mohair sheared at six month intervals rep­resents 85 per cent of the nation’s production.

“It is generally accepted that selling mohair on an ungraded basis penalizes the growers be­cause weight often is obtained at the expense of quality,” Nisbet says.

Accordingly, a grading program was inaugurated in the fall of 1939 through cooperation of the Exten­sion Service with the Agricultural Marketing Service and the Texas Angora Goat Raisers Association. In 1941 the Extension Service em­ployed Walter Garth, Jr., of San­ford, Maine, during August and September to extend the program. Numerous grading demonstrations were given on ranches and some purebred flocks were culled on a quality basis. As a consequence, general support for marketing mo­hair on its merits was more nearly obtained.

About 600,000 pounds of hair was graded during the spring and fall seasons of 1941, compared with a volume of 336,000 and 500,- 000 respectively, in 1940. The 1941 graded hair sold for a low of 38 cents for No. 4 grown to 85 cent* for No. 1 kid.

The University of Kentucky has the fourth largest graduate school east of the Mississippi river and south of the Ohio river.

------- THE BATTALION -----

Trig and Physics Desirable for Air Corps Bombardier

Mathematics through trigonom­etry and physics are desirable for the applicant who wishes to be­come a bombardier in the U. S. Air Force.

The bombardier, as the name im­plies, is in charge of bombing op­erations. Schools are located at Midland, Texas; Albuquerque, N. M.; Victorville, Calif.; Higby- Chandler, Ariz; Roswell, N. M.; Hobbs, N. M.; Carlsbad, N. M., and Kingham, Ariz.

No evidence of formal schooling is required and applicants for bombardier instruction spend nine weeks in fundamental study, 12 weeks at a bombardier school and five weeks in gunnery practice. Following this 26 weeks of school­ing he becomes a second lieutenant in the U. S. Army Air Force and draws $245 a month unless he lives on an army post where no rental allowance is made. During the training period he makes $75 a month, $1.00 a day subsistence, clothing, quarters, and a $10,000 government life insurance policy.

Applicants who wish to enlist in the U. S. Air Force may do so when the examining board comes to A. & M. May 13 and 14. He must'bring three letters of recom­mendation and a birth certificate or a reasonable proof of age.

—CLOSE FIGHT—(Continued From Page 3)

Watkins may break the existing record in the high jump. Pete will also e^ter the broad jump—a new event for him—in addition to the javelin and high hurdles.

• Rice’s hopes have been dimmed somewhat by Bill Christopher’s pulling a muscle. It is still doubt­ful whether he will be able to enter the meet this afternoon or not. Christopher was a cinch for first in the broad jump, a place in the high jump, and was also a re­lay man.

However, Rice still has Harold Hall in the dashes and Bill Black­burn and Jim Deal in the weights. All are favored in their events.

Aggie dashmen Ken Stallings and Derace Moser may give Hall trouble, though, and Felix Bucek will furnish plenty of competition in the discus. When A. & M. de­feated Rice in a dual meet sev­eral weeks ago, Felix tossed the platter 141 feet for first place over Deal.

Texas is depending on Hafernick and Umstaddt for the majority of their points. Hafernick is the defending champion in the mile.
