II many steps could be saved if
table linens could have a special
closet in the kitchen or pantry. In
one home that we know of space
for such a closet was going to
waste all because cupboard doors

that space became an efficient lin

NAH BLACKJACK

With U. S. naval strategists more
and more worried about what is 60
ing to happen to the British fleet,
it is interesting to examine some of
the details regarding the forced sur
render of the French fleet.
President Roosevelt had definite
assurances from the French ambas-
sador that the French fleet would
cooperate with the British if
France was forced to surrender.
However, Nazi agents had got
the names of every crew member on
French ships, and his relatives back
home in France. So when Marshal
Petain finally sued for an armistice,
the Nazis told relatives they would
be interned unless the French fleet
surrendered.
Chief moral to be gained from this
incident is the difficulty facing any
British fleet loan to the United
States. The Germans undoubtedly
have list of the relatives of British
crews.

Farm tenants who failed to get

miniStration to buy farms during the
past fiscal year may be able to get
loans this year according to lVey w.

Congress appropriatcs money 1ol'

and the new fiscal year started July

reached an account of limitation OF
funds may be considered along with
new applicants during the present
wear.
Mr.. Day further suggests that many
applicants may find they arc eligible
for Rural Rehabilitation loan. The
Farm Security Administration makes
Rura! Rehabilitation loanS-rcpay-
able in one to five years to farmers
who need credit to buy work stock,
farming equipment and other things
necessary TO get in shape to do good
farming.
Tenants with satisfactory written
leases aS we'll as owners can get these
loans. With the loan FSA Supervisors
give fulI assistance in working out a
sound farm plan. This type OF loan
gives the tenant Il chance 10 ac-
cumUIdt2 stock and equipment so that
he does not have to get such Il big
loan when he finally goes TO buy his
farm While working under the re-
Mobilization program the tenant also
has 4 good chance TO show what he
can do and thus improve his credit
rating.
1T is true loans to buy farms must
be approved by the county commit

are not qualified now docs not mean
that you cannot some day qualify
Yourself for one Of these loans. In

and buy their own farms"
Now is the time Tor farm families
