S. food administration, and the new "home card," which will be sent out from Washington within the next few days will outline a new schedule, with further restrictions on the use of these three staples. The new card is to replace, in some 13,- 000,000 kitchens of the United States, the original "home card which was given out when 13,000,000 housewives signed the-rood adminis tration's conservation pledge about two months ago.

OF INTEREST TO PRUNE Of Interest to the prune grower whose trees have been letting up in both growth and yield the experience of H. T. Westfall, of Yoncalla, with cover crops is interesting. He states that he has sown vetch and oats, for four seasons with added results each year. The first year the effect was not so apparent but since then soil has changed color considerably as the humus content has increased. The soil does not puddle and wash in the winter, spring work is easier and its moisture retaining properties during the summer are much im proved. As the nitrogen supply ac cumulates from plowing under the legume the trees noticably Improve in thrift andi yield, Mr. Westfall states that during the extreme drought" of last summer the foliage on his cover-cropped ; orchard was much greener than on others not so handled.
