Safeguarding the Future

Misinformaton regarding the purposes which have
prompted the formation Of the Lower Rio Grande Water
Conservation District of Texas is rife, and should not be
allowed to go uncorrected.
1t is easy to understand how, in times when business
is perhaps not so good as it has been and farm crops are
not bringing especially attractive prices, the average per-
son will look askance at almost any political project which
would seem to lead to higher or more taxes.
Voters Of the Valley who will go to the polls on
September 3 to cast their ballots for or against the vaida-
ton of this proposed district, should bear in mind, how
ever, that the district will have a very limited taxing
power and will have no power to issue either bonds or
warrants.
A limit of SC on the 500 state and county valuation
is the maximum tax it will be possible for the directors of
the district to impose, a tax which will result In the pay
ing of only soc in taxes on each 1000 valuation. Drec-
tors of the district have expressed the belief that a &c tax
will be sufficient, in which case it would cost the tax
payers Of the district only SOC on each $1,000 valuation.
Prime reason for the formation of the district IS to
hasten the day when waters of the Rio Grande will be
properly impounded, giving protection to the develop
ment already under way in the Rio Grande valley.
1t is an open secret that there have been times when
irrigation districts of the Valley have been alarmed be-
cause of the little water coming down the river, tunes
when it appeared that many. of our districts would De
forced to shut down their plants:
sary, but as more land is put under development, 1t would
appear that the only way in which the Valley can be
definitely assured of a staple water supply is to take what
ever action can be taken to impound the waters OF the
river.
This action is, of course, an international problem,
and depends entirely on the securing of a treaty with
Mexico relative to the division of the waters of the river.
The Valley must have some organization to properly
represent this section in the negotiations which are even
now under way, and the four county conservation district
will be that organization if it is validated by the voters on
September 8. &c
te district would seem to be in order that mlsconcepuons
apparently existing may be corrected and corrected I'M
mediately.

Daily Health
Talk

The diet Of the average Ameri-
can family, including mother, ia
Their and three children. must sup
ply a total of 5000 calories a day
for the father and perhaps lesser
amounts for the mother and the
children. 1t has been estimated
that 10 per cent of the energy
value is lost in the preparation, so
that the family has to purchase
$500 calories to get from 5000 to g.
200 calories each for adult con-
sumption.
In addition to selecting food TO
meet these needs. the one who
purchases the food must consider
its seasonableness. its cost at va
rious seasons and other variable
factors. 1t may be necessary TO vary
the amounts OF food according TO
the season. with more fats and
more carbohydrates during the
winter and less during the sum-
mer when heat-producing foods
are not so much required. This Is
especially true Of fat meats. mac
aroni. rice and beans. Eggs and
fresh fruits and vegetables are
more easily available and more
likely to be used in the summer
than in the winter. Grapefruit
used 10 be primarily a winter fruit,
but is now available at all sea

Canned goods which are used in
tremendous quantities by Amer
leans are now available through
out the year. SO that a diet may be
satisfactorily chosen from such
foods at any season.
