With demands on Imperial VAL
ley farmers for greater production
of war crops constantly growing
and with government wartime re-
strictions hindering their activities
in many cases. the work of the
Agricultural Adjustment Admins
tration and its associated agencies
is playing an increasingly import
ant role.
With the advent of war and its
subsequent maze of red tape and
regulations, the farmer. like many
other individuals. sought help. This
he found in the office of the AAA
which is operated with great eff
cheney b. its secretary, Rudolph
Miller
The farmers demands on the AAA
ard the United States Department
OF Agriculture war board, the oper-
alton OF which agency is supervis-
ed by Miller. are many and varied
making it necessary for war board
employees TO keep a constant vigil
on rules and restrictions that affect
farm operations.

Hawk the committee consists of :,
L. Dubois. Ell Centre; Dan Scott

Sharp, Hoitville; Jerry. Asher, Ell

In the same office a committee
on Regional Agriculture Credit
corporation loans functions and
arranges loans for farmers who
could increase their acreage of war
crops with additional finances. This
work is carried out only where
farmer is unable to obtain financ-
ing through other facilities
Hawk is assisted on this special
committee by P. E. Hixson, loan
representative, who resides in Ell

TRANSPORTATION
COMMITTEE

The farm transportation commit
tee, a sub-agency operating under
the war board, attempts to solve
the farmers transportation prob
lens. The distribution OF new trucks
comes unoer the jurisdiction of this
body and where the demand for
such vehicles exceeds the local quota,
efforts are made to place the avail
able supply where it will obtain
the maximum results in producing
war crops.
The transportation committee
makes mileage recommendations for
farmers who seek gasoline allot-
ments and the advice of this COM
mittee is used where the pooling of
facilities is necessary.
This important body is headed by
L. c. Hawk and working under him
are Marx Trentham, Imperial; j. l..
Dubois, Ell Centre; Bert Purdy,
FL Centre; James Simons, BraWley;
Charles Hill, Holtville; Harold Hunt,
FL Centro, and Rudolph Miller.
The farm machinery committee,
another subagency of the war board,
was established when all farm ma
chinery in the nation was frozen.
Following the freezing order an
inventory was conducted and avail
able equipment allotted to various
farm sections throughout the coun-

women give generously in the way

Servicemen's canteenS and they are
among the Red Cross best workers
in the production fields. Farm
women hold records for the num-
Der of garments they have knitted
or made, and they have turned out

With ore-handedness farm wom-

their farm home departments, have
been preparing themselves for the
more severely rationed days which
lie ahead of is all.

at the canteen-She has to budget

While this is a problem, it is also
an advantage, for the farm woman
through necessity, has TO plan her
time SO well that she probably ac-
cemplishes more in the same period
than does her city sister.
In all the various war activities
in which women play part, you
find the farm woman also She has

edge will prove its worth in the fu-
ture. even more so than at pres

TO AID FARMERS

The AAA functions primarily TO
aid farmers in the change-over of
crops and offices are maintained in
counties throughout the nation.
Comfy offices operate under state
offices which in turn adhere TO the
policy Of the national organization.
In peace tine the chief aim of
the AAA is to regulate the planting
Cf crors in such a manner so that
cnly enough CT any one crop for
normal consumption by the nation,
plus a small surplus for emergency
use. in addition to export demands

Dehydration as a method of food
preservation is also important. and
during the past month, Miss Flor

for a home dehy6rator and large
number of the farm women are
building these dehydratorS as an
other way OF preserving food.
COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN
Mrs. c. F. Maynard. farm home
department member. is chairman
of the county food preservation
committee. which next month will
initiate a program for carrying in
formation and suggestions in regard
to this vital work into every home
in the county.
To The farm women of Imperial
Valley. the war brings one extra
problem that her city sister does
not have to face to such q degree
the problem of transportation.
When the farm woman runs out
OF bread. she can't dash over to
the nearest store. With her. it is
a serious problem, and she has to
plan both her menus and her time
equally well so that when she
makes a trip to town on those few
precious gallons OF gasoline. she
doesn't overlook a thing.

Of many types that greatly help
the farmer in his business and keep
him abreast of the times are dis

in this district:
L. c. Hawk, Calexico, chairman;
S. E. Robinson, Imperial; Nelson
Correll, Calipatria; Harold B.
Brown, Yuma, and Lulu B. Middle

+ With the outbreak of war special
boards to assist farmers were set up
in all counties where AAA offices
function and the chairmen OF local

MAKE BREAD

Before gas rationing went into
effect realizing that the bakery
trucks would soon no longer be
stopping frequently at their doors,
and that they themselves would
not be going TO town so often. the
fam hcme department women took
up the old-fashioned art of bread
making.
Al every center. through the OF
flee of the home demonstration
sgent and with the help OF the
University of California agricultural
extention service experts, farm
women learned how to bake breads
that were delicious and at the
same time packed with vitamins
and all the essentials for maintain
ing health.
These same University of Cali
fornia experts. with Miss Glenn,
have brought farm women infor-
nation in regard to nutrition, point
rationing, bulge ting of time
which will help them conserve time
and energy in the days to come
and which will enable them to buy
wisely and to see that the family's
health is maintained by the Ju-
