Governor w. B. Hobby (abOve) and
Ex-Governor James E. Ferguson.

Austin, Texas Farmer Jim" Fer
guson, impeached and driven out of
the governors office last year, is
putting up picturesque fight to get
back by way Of the Democratic pri-
maries THIS summer. He is opposed
by Governor Hobby, who as lieutenant
governor succeeded Ferguson when
the latter abdicated.
Because Texas was hog wild over
higher education" to use his own
picturesque English, Governor Fer
guson declared war on the state uni
versity. AS a result of this and
other influences, more or less re-
lated, friends of the university put
on their war clothes. Ferguson came
off second best
The ex-governor, now staging his
primary campaign, is fighting all
such things as colleges professors,
boiled shirts, etc. Hobby, it seems,
has a tennis court somewhere which
Ferguson says he will turn into a
COW pasture, but, according to Hobby
the only cow Ferguson ever MIXED
was the state treasury, and the rec
ord shows he MIXED it for both milk
and butter"
Ferguson, according to Hobby, has
declared that it Is just as important
to lick the state university as it is
to lick the kaiser"
Hobby has almost the solid sup
port of the newspapers of the state.

Are Being Asked. To
Give Their Support

A drive for fat and grease. much
in demand for making soap, is the
latest conservation activity being
staged by the Salvage department Of
the Fargo branch OF the American
Red Cross.
A publicity committee, composed of
Mrs. e. J. Weiser, ]. A. Pierce, and
A. M. Cornwall, chairman, has been
named,
Dates for the drive have not been
determined. Pending the announce
ment Of the date, Fargo housewives
are urged to conserve all fat and
grease.
The publicity committee is making
plans to publish a general pamphlet
setting forth the activities of the
various departments. Also, circular
letters are to be sent to the homes
throughout the city giving directions
for saving fats.
They contain the following direc-
tons: Save every scrap Of fat.
Each day try out all that has accum-
ulated, however small the quantity.
This is done by placing the scraps in
a frying pan on the back of the
range or over a low fire. If the
heat is low and the grease is not
allowed to get hot enough to smoke,
there will be no odor from 1t. Turn
the melted grease into lard pals or
jars. to be turned into the Salvage
department when notice is given"
