Mystery seeds from overseas
Although it may be tempting to plant the seeds to see what sprouts—the tale of Jack and the Beanstalk comes to mind—Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller said it’s a bad idea. The seeds may be those of invasive plant species, or they may have been treated with harmful soil pathogens or other diseases harmful to vegetation and animals. We just don’t know. Invasive species can destroy native crops and may be dangerous for livestock to ingest. Examples of highly destructive invasive species in Texas in-

TEACH YOUR CHILDREN My wife and I live at neighbors and myself.
Lake Holbrook and for the most part, we find it relaxing and peaceful. However, recently we were victims of an unusual crime spree. We have a wrought iron outdoor sofa that overlooks the beautiful lake. Recently we had a cushion stolen from our front porch and my wife and I launched a full scale investigation into the whereabouts of the missing sofa cushion. Now, understand these cushions are not the prettiest in the world, nor are they worth a lot, but it was something my late mother in law passed along to her. So, for the most part, the value of the cushions is sentimental Well, a week or two pass and, my wife and I are having coffee and she just happens to look out the window and another cushion is missing. This time she tells me to call the Wood County Sheriff’s office to make a report. While we are waiting she decided to take out the garbage and while walking past our laundromat something told her to check the laundromat and to her amazement, two teenage girls were sleeping on a cushion owned by one of my
The girls had been to a lake party and somehow wound up abandoned and had no way to get home. At about the same time, my wife discovered the girls the county mounties rolled up and took charge of the situation. The officers were very kind and professional and made sure the girls got home safely. The reason I write this is because this could have ended in a very sad state. It is my opinion that this is how youngsters are forced into sex trafficking, These girls were no older than 16 maybe 17 and their parents had no idea they were sleeping in a laundromat. The floors were dirty and there was no air conditioner in the building. My wife and I and our neighbor Todd made sure they got water and food and had use of the bathroom. Then the officers took them to their parents and I sincerely hope these girls will think twice about attending these types of parties. Summer is a time for fun and recreation. Let’s keep safe this summer. Thank you for reading The Lone Star Shopper and remember, I’m pullin’ for ya! On another note, The

Don’t go wild taking sunflower photos By Julie Tomascik You might have seen them growing along Texas highways and back roads this summer. That bright, oh so sunny field of sunflowers. It’s a hardy crop that can survive this Texas heat. But can sunflowers survive Texans? What do I mean by that, you ask. Well, Texans love a good photo of Texas agriculture. Sunflowers, wheat fields, cows and a good, old rustic barn make a great back drop for any picture. Texans do it for the gram. To get the perfect selfie. Or that beautiful family photo. But it’s trespassing when you walk into that field of sunflowers or wheat on the side of the road. And it could be damaging to the crop. Farmers invest their time and money into growing their crops, and sunflowers are no exception. When you walk into their field, take a photo or cut off one of the flowers, you make think it’s harmless. But it’s in fact causing

AUGUST 5, 2020
damage. Let that sink in for a minute. Damage to the crop, potential damage to the field if it’s wet and damage to the farmer’s bottom line. That harmless activity of taking a photo or taking a plant can represent a financial loss to the farmer. If every person that stops takes a sunflower or parks on the edge of the field, the damage quickly adds up. And you’re trespassing. That isn’t the Texan thing to do in a state where we hold private property rights so dear. You never know what you could encounter in those fields and pastures. You might find unfriendly animals or unknowingly enter a dangerous situation. And it’s illegal. Don’t trespass into a farmer’s field. Don’t hop the fence into a rancher’s pasture. Be respectful and ask for permission before walking through someone’s property. That’s the Texan thing to do and the right thing to do.
