Benefit Payments To Farmers May Be Cut in 1943 WASHINGTON, Nov. 30-(AP) Farm conservation benefit pay ments In 1943 may bp reduced $100,000,000 below the halfabil nondollar amount authorized by federal crop control legislation and SWKKUHX) below the amount congress appropriated for the cur rent crop year. Agriculture department offi cials said the budget bureau had agreed to recommend an appro priation of ?400.HJO,000 for con servation payments to be distri buted among farmers complying with next year's war food pro gram. The amount appropriated for like payments this year was $450, 000,000. The agriculture depart ment had asked the budget bu reau to recommend an appropria tion of $450,000,000 for llil.'i, these officials said. Pointing to advances in farm prices and to agriculture depart ment reports that farm income was 35 per cent greater than a year ago, budget bureau officials were said to have taken the posi tion at first that lann benefit payments should be reduced. They were said to have suggested $200, 000,01X1 to finance payments to farmers who complied with soil conservation practices recom- mended by the agriculture de partment. Depart ment officials objected, it was said, on the ground that funds would not be available for payments to farmers for planting within their agricultural adjust ment administration acreage al lotments. Agricultural officials argued that some farmers, not having the Inducement of acreage payments, might ignore their allotments and produce crops and products not so greatly needed at the expense of products vitally important to the war program. liudgel officials wen- said to hove won over to the extent of r e c o in in e n d I n g $ 100,000,000 - SJOO.OOO.IHKI each for conserva tion practices and $21X1,000,000 for acreage compliance. Hog Output Boost Next Year Asked By Secy. Wickard WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.--Scctctary of Agriculture Wickard lias boosted the l!li:t bog produc tion goal, calling for an increase ol 15 per cent over Ibis year's record hog production of 105,500, IKK) head-. At the same time, Wickard an- nounccd a government price sup- porting program to hold prices ol hogs at Ifl .).2;j a hundred pounds. Wickard said purchasing by the agricultural marketing adminis tration will be so operated as to maintain an average hog price ol $l.').i;5 a hundred pounds, Chicago basis, for good and choice grades of butcher bogs weighing 1210 to 270 ikiuihIs. The price will maintained until .September 3H, 1!!4I. Would Save Dairy Herds Wickard also told dairy farm ers that, despite the labor short iige, they will have to produce mole miik in 111 I'l than they have done 111 the record breaking year ol l!MU'. The government Is "doing what II can," he said, to end the labor shortage and prevent slaughter ing ot dairy cattle for the lack of lalxir. "We're working on a plan to buy up any good cows that may be thrown on the market, and distribute I Ik in to Iarms that can handle more cons." Victory Garden Meeting Scheduled at O. S. C.

Use of Turkey-Brooding Equipment to Increase Output of Chickens Calls for Precaution Against In a program to increase the nation's meat supply the govern ment is asking poult rvmen and turkey growers to brood an addi tional 200.0(XI,IXIO chicks for broil ers and Iryers. Producers are re quested to use their blooding equipment for Mils, purpose (lur ing periods when II Is normally idle rather than purchasing new c(iilpnient. Turkey growers who are using or contemplate using their tur key brooding set ups to produce broilers or fryers belorc the regit lar poult brooding season arrives should take precaution to elimin ate disease hazards, slates Dr. K. M. Dickinson, poultry pathologist. Oregon State college. Certain common diseases of chicks may be transmitted to poults through brooder houses and brooding equipment that are not properly cleaned and ilislnlccleil between In oo Is. It is an established recommend at ion and practice, because ot the disease liaard, that chicken and turkey operations should In kept separate. This recommeuda lion still si. mils because the ' i danger is no less today than at any other lime.

Oregon's Turkey Income Tops All Specialty Crops Oregon's turkey industry has grown to the point where It leads all other specialty animal Indus tries In Oregon in income by a large margin, according to the latest summary of production and income statistics ill this field just released by the (J. S. C. extension service. Oregon's lllll turkey crop brought the largest cash farm in come of record, amounting to Su, 800.IXXJ. The industry in this state has grown considerably since Ml.'ili, when the income was only K,S5II,(I00. The trend has been to ward larger flocks but fewer farmers engaged in the business, the bulletin reveals. ISy far the l.':r;!c.;i production in the stale is cirti.cJ in the Willamette vul.ey counties, with Marion county in the lead. Closely follow ing in volume of production are Iuie, Linn, Douglas, Yamhill and C'la kanias in thai order. Oregon's cash larm income from larm raised fur and game animals reached $850,(K0 ill 1911, niosiiy derived from mink and silver fox i.nms. This industry is centered mostly in Willamette valley, coast, ami lower Columbia liver counties. Numbers of bee colonies kept in Oregon have been relatively sta tionary in the last lew years at about ;,IX. though production in Hill was somewhat lower than in ll'IO. Ksiimnied cash farm in come was !K7,000 and $SJ,000, re spoctivcly. Chinese Can Give U. S. Meat Stretching Ideas America might well profit by invit in some native Chinese food specialists lo come to this coun try lo loach methods of making a little meat go a long way in the diet and of preparing highly pala table meat substitutes, believes Dean Ava U.

But the "freeze" is over, and since midnight, Novem ber 28, you have been able to take War Ration Hook One up to now just your "Sugar Book" to the grocery store and buy coffee again. Stamp No. 27 in the "Sugar Book" (lower left hand corner) is good for one pound of coffee through Sunday, January 3, 1943, if the age shown at time of registration wa3 15 years or over. Any person not having a "Sugar Book" may still ob tain one by registering (prior to December 15, 1012) with his local War Price and Ration Board and, subject to age limit, the stamps will be good for coffee, too. Ration stamps for coffee must be detached by the grocer or his authorized delivery man because of the age limit. Stamps authorized for coffee must not be detached from a book "under age limit." jis these stamps will have to be accounted for when the time comes to renew the "Sugar Book." Wartime problems of production and distribu tion make it impossible to have enough coffee everywhere at the same time to fill all demands immediately. So spread your stamps out. If you have a number of "coffee stamps" in the family, we suggest you buy several times in the next few weeks instead of all at once. And if you have enough coffee on hand to last a while, don't rush down to the store to get your "ration." Let your less fortunate neighbors have a chance to get their coffee first. Stamp No. 27 is good through January 3, 1013.

Long-Named Drug Found Excellent Parasite Remedy Tetrachlorethylene, pronounced as though It were three words, "tetra chlor ethylene", when mixed with a light mineral oil, provides a low cost sheep worm remedy for use against internal parasites that cause most of the trouble in Oregon sheep, reports Dr. J. N. Shaw, veterinarian of the O. S. C. experiment station. When purchased in bulk and mixed with oil, this chemical can be used at n cost of slightly more than one cent per dose, which is only a little higher than that of the "well-known, useless copper sulphate or bluestone", says Dr. Shaw. When used in bulk, tetrachlor ethylene is mixed with a light mineral oil that is, one that flows freely and in this form there is practically no danger of strangulation unless it is careless ly administered. The most effec tive mixture contains one part tetrachlorethylene to three parts mineral oil, although 50-50 mix tures have been used satisfactor ily. The dose for adult sheep is 20 cc. or two-thirds of an ounce, and half as much for lambs. A bottle for measuring these doses can be obtained from any druggist. The material is best given lo the animal by use of a spray gun such as is used by mechanics in oiling springs or other parts of automo biles. The material can be ad ministered every four days, al though usually every 10 days will give desirable results. This same chemical is obtain able in the form of soft gelatin capsules, but the oil mixture will give exactly the same results at Now you corns facilities living in the X BROS COFFEE a fraction of the cost, says Dr. Shaw. More complete information on preparing and administering this remedy is given In station circular of information No. 284, obtain able from any county agent. Farm Spring "Revival'' Ends Quest for Leak RAYTOWN, Mo. Clayton W. Erwln was pleased when a long dry spring on his farm started spouting 4,000 gallons of water each hour. He told W. Logan Jones, man ager of a water company, of his good fortune. Cried Jones: "That's the leak we've been KEEP NUTS AND BOLTS DOUGLAS COUNTY Farm Bureau Co-Operative Exchange ROSEBURG, OREGON can buy abmim understand that you may apply to your local War Price and Ration Board for a certificate enabling you to buy up to five pounds of coffee at a time. (The equivalent number of stamps will be removed from your book to cover the "advance" ration.) If there should be any change in the basis or method of coffee rationing, it will be publicly announced and your grocer will also know. You can count on him to keep you properly informed. The quantity of coffee obtainable by anyone under Rationing Regulations at the time this goes to press will represent a greater reduction for many people than it will for others. But let's look at rationing . . . for coffee or any other commodity ... in a sensible and reasonable manner. Ration ing is a wartime measure made necessary, in the case of coffee, by interruptions in supply that have resulted from a shortage of ships . . . aggravated by unusual consumer buying in the past few months. And even if it serves no other purpose, rationing is a means by which everyone will be able to get his share of the coffee that is available. It is to be hoped that many of the recent un certainties of supply and demand that have existed across the Nation with respect to coffee will be come adjusted through the functioning of coffee rationing. And let us hope, too, that as time goes on more ships will be available to bring in the supplies of green coffee that are awaiting ship ment from our neighboring countries in the South and Central Americas. Statements by Government authorities have indicated a desire to increase the allowance of coffee under the rationing system just as soon as conditions will permit perhaps even eliminate it entirely. When that hap pens. ..wholly or even in part. ..the coffee pot will indeed have a ncv"silvcr lining." hunting for eight months." The water main has been re paired, Erwin's spring is dry again and the water company officials have quit worrying about bankruptcy. H.C.STEARNS Funeral Director Phone 472 OAKLAND, ORE.
