Memphis reports the "fire packed" bale as a major but less noticed enemy to cotton. Spokesman John H. Todd cites 1945-46 losses of 90,204 bales worth over 14 million dollars, while 1946-47 first half fires fell 40 percent in count and 79 percent in bales.
A cheese ring recipe pleases readers of a magazine with 1 300 000 farm families. The dish can be converted into a main course by adding a brimp or tuna or by filling the center with a vegetable medley. The article also mentions dairy and canning tips and praises a community drive against cotton fires led by industry groups. A separate notice invites bids to improve Carrollton Texas water infrastructure, with proposals due November 1947.
Mr Todd warns that a single fire-packed bale can endanger thousands of others and urges segregating suspected bales for 48 to 72 hours or notifying the warehouseman. Brenda Lois is named in the warning. Also reports arrivals home and local society notes including YWCA meeting at the Baptist Church with hot dogs and cakes.
Mr and Mrs Hartline of Farmers Branch announce the arrival of a nine pound six ounce baby boy born Thursday night at Florence Nightingale Hospital in Dallas.
