ALLOTMENTS INCREASES AND
PRICES SUPPORTED AS MOVES
TO OBTAIN MAXIMUM EFFORT

The full resources OF Govermen-
tai agricultural programs are direc-
ted at helping American farmers
meet their wartime food production
goals. And farmers themselves are
already busy producing the record
breaking quantities OF food called
for in these goals.
The Agricultural Adjustment Ad-
ministration program of adjust
ment has been brought into full
play-adjustment for abundance OF
foods needed by ourselves and our
allies.
Corn acreage allotments have
been increased ten percent, and
farmers are given the option OF
increasing paintings still another
30 percent.
Wheat. on the other hand. is still
a surplus crop. The Nation viii
have an extra years supply left
over when the new harvest comes
in. Consequently. acreage allot-
ments for wheat are somewhat
smaller than in 1941. Marketing
quotas for the 1912 wheat crop
have already been proclaimed. and
wheat farmers will vote in a ma

FARM LOOKS TO
WOOD TO FILL
BUILDING NEEDS

Wood is going back to the farm!
II has taken modern war. with
its draft of nearly every.metal for
military service, TO restore wood
to its former position as the prin-
cipal building material around the
farm Mortar, bricks, and concrete
win also find wider use as farmers
prepare to build new structures or
repair old ones in order to fill their
share of the Nations war order
for farm products.
Farmers will be wise to use some
of their increased income now to
build needed farm structures and
to make improvements on the farm
home AS the war throws more
and more of load on transporta-
ton, building materials may be
hard to get. AS one government
agency advises. farmers will do
well to buy lumber for all planned
construction in advance or the

lumber against future needs.
Advise Building Now
The same authority says that
now is the time to build structures
needed for increased production or
milk, chickens, hogs or other farm
products. to provide storage on
the farm for grain and feed crops
and to construct sheds to prolong
the life of farm machinery.
Despite reports that the shortage
of materials makes building I'M
possible, farmers are still able TO
do much construction or repair
work around the farms with lum-
ber Mortar, and bricks are gen.
orally plentiful, and concrete may
be used for footings. foundations
floors, and for silos and STOCK
tanks. Redwood or cypress gut
ters, wood lath, wood window sash
and wood shingles are, of course,
old fayorites of builders.

GOOD PASTURES
REPRESENT BIG
FIELD RESERVE

When increases in milk produc-
tion for 1912 were asked nearly a
year ago as a prelude to the great
Food for Freedom program. Amer
lea turned to the stored fertility of
her pasturelands. But while these
grasslands are a reservoir of rich
ness, dairymen konw that TO be
sure OF achieving the billion
pound milk increase. no bets can
be overlooked in making the pas
lures as productive as possible.
Pasture Pointers
The Dos and Dont's" of pasture
management apply to every farmer
big or small. The farmer with just
one. two, or three cows can make
a contribution to the national pro
duction effort. If the small farm
operator improves his pastures and
manages his COW or cows effec-
lively he can produce enough milk
for his own family needs and thus
make more commercial milk avail
able for war needs.
The activity and effort expend-
ed this spring in pasture improve
ment will pay dividends later in
the year. Lime and superphosphate
can be used TO excellent advantage
in the spring when pasture seeding
or new growth is. in progress.
Dairy specialists advise contin-
ued feeding of concentrates and
grains to milk cows even after they
have been turned into the pastures
in the spring. A feeding system
combining grazing with the meals
OF concentrates and rain will show
up on the production chart.
Advise Rotation
Pastures may be used wisely or
poorly Just as any farm equipment.
A process OF rotation is the ideal
practice. This calls for grazing one
area. then fencing 1t off and NOV
ing on to an untouched area, re-
seeding and reworking each area
as the cows are removed from It,

offered.
To carry out price support. two
methods are used: the loan pro
gram. which has been in effect for
several years on wheat. corn. cot
ton. and some other staple crops
that can easily be stored: and the
more recent direct purchase pro

Under the new wartime program,
commodities included in the price

are familiar TO farmers. and pro-
vided for in the Agricultural Ad-
justment Act.

keep farm labor within their physi-
cal strength.
Gardening. long the woman's re
sponsibility. insures the family food
supply as well as releasing com
mercially produced foods for mar
ket. Women are planning TO make
1912 a record one for the family
garden-with the assistance of boy
and girl helpers.
Increases TO be met in chicken
and egg production are specific
parts of the 1912 farm goals. Here
again, women will have as first
assistants the children of the fami
ly who tighten the work.
over a period of lean years, farm
women have learned how TO sacri
flee and now are showing a will
ingness to use every ounce of this
talent for victory.
The Coolidge examiner., 1942-03-27

The job before farm-women is
bigger than ever. Many duties -
some OF them new. will fall 10
women as the war effort grows.
War industries alone will add ten
million workers by July /. 1912 and
the proportion of women going
into factories will skyrocket Nor
mally onefourth OF the national
labor force are women. AS the farm
labor shortage becomes acute. rural
women are matching the patriotism
of their sisters in industry by go
ing into farm production. Most
farm women are counting on being
just twice as busy as in peace
time.
Women are taking over most of
the farm bookkeeping. Frequently
women labor in the fields side by
side with their husbands. They are
helping with increasing amounts OF

Fears Grow
for Missing
Fishermen

ROSCOMMON, Nov. 16 - up
- Fears for three fishermen,
who disappeared late Saturday
night on Higgins Lake grew to-
day after oars, fish spears and
a cap of one of the men were
reported found late Sunday aft
ernoon at the north end of the
lake.
Missing were Corp. Arthur
Ostling, rs, Of Roscommon,
home on furlough from camp
Francis E. Warren, Wyo; Cliff
Beacon, 80, Lansing bank en-
ploye; and Beacon's 16-year-old
son.
The three men were last seen
on the lake about 1870 Satur-
day night when a light they
were using to spear fish sud-
denly disappeared. State police
of the Houghton Lake post were
not informed that the men were
missing until Sunday afternoon
because relatives believed they
had gone deer hunting and did
not become alarmed.
A high wind that dashed the
lake into four foot waves pre-
vented any extensive search
Sunday afternoon or evening,
but boats were out today hunt
ing the bodies.

Naval Losses

NEW YORK. Nov. 16-(P-
A japanese imperial headquar-
tiers in a revised report of the
Oct. 26 naval battle east of the
SolomOns asserted today the
japanese sank one battleship,
two aircraft carriers identified
as the u. S. 5. Enterprise and
Hornet. another large-type air
craft carrier, three cruisers and
one destroyer.
A u. S. Navy communique
had reported the United States
destroyer Porter was sunk by
enemy action; one US. aircraft
carrier was severely damaged;
and other United States vessels
reported lesser damage when q
Pacific fleet carrier task force
exchanged air attacks with
strong Japanese forces northeast
of Guadalcanal. Then on Oct. 81
the Navy announced that the
carrier, which was not identi-
fled, was destroyed after she
had been heavily damaged by
japanese bombers and torpedo
planes.
Except for the loss of the car
rier and the destroyer, there
has been no us. or other Allied
announcement to confirm the
sweeping Japanese claim.
