Blood donations and drought program updates in Brewster County
Last year an average of 8 000 persons a day donated blood to the American Red Cross for national defense and civilian use. The Texas USDA Drought Committee is authorized to continue the Drought Feed Grain Program with applications due by June 15 1953 at the Brewster County ASC Office 205 East Ave D. FHA approval will consider current feed on hand outstanding purchase orders and prior program expirations. Massie West, a cooperator with the Big Bend Soil Conservation District, reports four new windmills west of Cathedral Peak to provide water within 1 1/2 miles for livestock and reduce trampling. Ground moisture data shows grassy covers store more moisture than bare soil, with potential loss to evaporation from bare ground.
