1913 Farm Production Plan
Drawn by Secretary Wickard

Stating that the greater part Of the
responsibility for supplying United
Nations war food needs rests with
American farmers. Secretary Of Az
riculture Wickard outlined recently a
1943 farm production program calling
for the largest output in history.
The program set up production goals
for individual crops and livestock,
dairy and poultry products which are
designed to provide a power to help
alleviate those shortages.
Wickard said also that the depart
ment would grant loans and provide
technical assistance to help small
farmers increase their output
In general, the goals called for more
meat and milk, more poultry and eggs,
more of the vegetables high in food
value, more corn and less wheat, more
peanuts for food and vegetable oil,
more long-staple cotton and less
short-staple cotton and more potatoes.
dry beans and peas.
THE 1943 goals" the secretary said,
represent the most crucial and i'm
portant task our farmers have ever
been asked to perform. The role of
American food in the war strategy Of
the United Nations puts the farmer
on the front line and dictates the
trends of our 1913 farm production
program"
Wickard said the goals represent
minimum requirements" of this
country, its armed forces and the lend
lease program He said military and
lend-lease requirements were expected
to take a fourth of the estimated 1913
food output.
Furthermore, as the United Ma

THE MYSTERIOUS
MIR. HAMILTON
OF FORT UNION

rest of the employees at the fort ex-
perienced the same regret at the news
Of Hamilton's death, for his frequent
attacks Of govt brought him to the
two extremes of being very pleasant
or very grabbed: so he was not liked
though much respected"
Mr.. Hamilton. records Larpenteur.
had hard old English head. which
he used to good purpose on one not
able occasion. A party Of Assinniboines
numbering 20. knocked at the door Of
the fort after 10 o'clock one night
and asked to be admitted. They were
allowed to enter as that number did
not constitute a menace. Soon so more
of the same party arrived and de-
manded to be let in. Believing there
would be more danger in refusing
than in granting their demand. Mr.
Hamilton opened the door to them.
There were now 70 warriors inside,
and soon Larpenteur saw there was
trouble afoot. and so reported to
Hamilton. The latter ordered or 10
muskets to be laid on the table, and
plenty Of cartridges. and that small
cannon should be placed in the pass
age All this to be done quietly so the
Indians would not suspect such pre-
parations were being made. When all
was ready the blinds were thrown
open so the Indians could see the mus
kets and cartridges: four men were
detailed for action; and the cannon
was run up and down the passage
making great noise, for which the
Indians could not account. The sud-
denness of the affair frightened them,
and quieted them as we'll, for although
they had been very insulting until
then, they decided to lie down and go
to sleep.
This occurred about midnight. Early
in the morning Larpenteur was told
that the Indians wished to leave. He
Immediately rose, and opened the door
for them. In less than 10 minutes not
one of them remained in the fort, to
the great relief of those who lived
there. Hamilton's prompt action
probably saved the lives of all in the
fort.

At the same time, Wickard an
nounced farm price support program
which pledged his department to, $50
far as possible, work out and maintain
price policy during the year which
will give maximum assistance to the
production program" Included in the
program were specific price support
figures for many major commodities
In general, the department promised
to support prices at levels not less
than 30 percent of parity.
parity prices have been described
by agriculture department economists
as those which would be fair and
equitable for both farmer and con-
sumer.)

URGENCY OF WAR
CHANGES METHOD
OF PROSPECTING
GRIZZLED VETERAN WITH BURRO
GONE AS EMERGENCY SPEEDS
SEARCH FOR METALS

The old prospector and his burro
long since have been outdistanced in
the west as war has outspeeded the
search for strategic metals.
Gold and silver, the glamour metals
for which the 49ers risked their lives,
play second fiddle to such stuff as
cadmium, chromium, manganese, tin
and other ore out Of which ammunition
or armor is made.
Where the old prospector searched
for a streak Of color in his pan Of pay
dirt, science now seeks-and some
times finds-such things as copper
mines that produce 100000 pounds a
month; new process that develops
100000 pounds Of magnesium year
from sea water or a new method of
taking aluminium from clay.
Actually" says Charles w. Hen
derson, supervising engineer for the
mineral production and economics di-
vision of the United States bureau Of
mines, mining men have known of
the existence Of many Of these de-
posits for years.
"They have been of such low-grade
stuff they weren't worth developing
when we could import materials from
distant countries cheaply. Now cost Is
secondary"
Near miracles have been wrought,
says Henderson,. For instance: Mag
nesium was needed in great quantities.
1t is a metal lighter than aluminium
and stronger and is ideal for aircraft
construction.
Scientists found that it could be
made from sea water In Texas
plant was constructed capable of pro-
ducing 100000 pounds a year. In
1898 the entire United States pro-
duced only 100000 pounds.
United States war engineers were
pleading for more chromium. Even
when its prewar purpose was prin-
cipally to manufacture such incon-
sequentials as automobile trim, this
country didn't produce enough chrom-
ium for its own needs. 1t is needed
now to make tougher engine parts,
tool steel and armor plate. So work
was started on the development Of
three important deposits Of wide strip.
Eight new district offices have been
created in the west by the bureau Of
mines to intensity its hunt for new
deposits of minerals and to increase
the development of known deposits.
An amazing new instrument, the
M-scope, locates deposits of metal far
beneath the ground-a feat which
formerly could be accomplished only
by digging.
Scientists Of nearly all American
universities and colleges have con-
tributed an idea or two to help the ma
ton fill its stock piles Of needed
metals. An example Is the work being
done by the University Of Kansas,
where q new cheap method Of pro-
ducing aluminum from clay Is being
tried.

"The Boy and the Parrot" a marionette show written, produced and performed by members of the creative arts workshop at New Haven Teachers College summer session, will be given at 1:30 P. M. on Thursday, in the auditorium.
 The production, which is under the direction of Mrs. Ruth P. De- Villafranca of Danbury Teachers College, is a story of Guatemala. It Is a study of the people, geography and customs of that country.
 Students of the class made the puppets which will star in the shw o The art and social science depart ments cooperated in the project and all available resources of the sum- mer session were utilized by the workship group.
 Advisor for the puppet show was Miss Mable McCrimmon, native Chilean and authority on South America, who recently spoke at the college during a conference On the Western Hemisphere. Miss McCrim- mon advised students as to the correctness of assumes and land- scaping.
 Mrs. Devillafranca said today that the show is open to the public and will be of special interest to those engaged in group work.
