OUR ROSEBURG NEWS-REVIEW, ROSEBURG, OREGON. TUESDAY. JANUARY 18. 1944. Receipts of Hogs Jam Stock Yards SPOKANE, Jan. 17. (AP) The old Union stock yards report ed today Its hog pens were jam med and that several cars of on-the-hoof pork stood on a railroad siding awaiting unloading. The yards held nearly 2500 head. On one occasion this winter the yards turned away hogs when Its pons were filled. Several times an appeal was made to farmers to bring no swine to the yards on certain days to avoid a glut. Slowness of purchases and man power shortage at the yards and in packing plants, as well as an unusually large hog crop, have been advanced as reasons for the jam.

When the demand for feeds is as strong and sustained as it has been for many months, it is not always easy to keep our feet solidly on the ground. Our think ing can get so accustomed to this unnatural war time situa tion that we might be persuad ed that our own particular anui ty must be responsible for it. In the kind of business most of us grew up in, we had to jusiuy our existence Dy me quality of service wc gave those who swapped their money for our feeds; and we know that Is what the successful conduct of our business will require In the iuture. rms period wmcn dusi ness is now experiencing cannot last, and in many ways, it is a dangerous period lor our think ing. Every Monday morning, and mrougnoui ine weeK we Keep reminuing ourselves oi inui. Like most other organiza tions, wc have lost a number of experienced people to the armed services, and we have operated with fewer employees tnan were needed to carry on th business the way we would prefer. During these times we nave not always been able to serve you as well as we would like, nor as well as we expect to serve you In the . happier days ahead. But we have enjoyed doing business with you, and hope the feeling has been mutual. May we extend our very bOBt wishes for 1944, with the hope that be fore another New Year wo will again live in a peaceful world. BLOOD-TESTING. Due to the tremendous amount of blood-testing we have to do, we must ask that you not embarrass yourself or us by ask ing us to test your birds, UN LESS you are a regular custo mer of the Mill. We should love to do it, but lime won't permit. I BE CAREFUL! HERE IS A SPECIAL (AP) PRESS REPORT OF JANUARY 15th. We don't wish to create un necessary alarm over the feed shortage, but at the same time it is our desire to keep the feed situation before our customers in order that they may not at tempt to produce more turkeys, chickens and general livestock than feed is available for. Please read carefully the fol lowing report by War Food Ad ministrator Marvin Jones: Wheat (300). Washington, Jan. 15th (AP). Impending shortages of wheat may necessitate curtailment or stoppage of allocation for live stock, War Food Administrator Marvin Jones told a senate in terstate commerce sub-commit tee todav. Defending an Office of De fense Transportation order which would require allotment of 200 American railroad cars dally to import 40,000,000 bush els of wheat from Canada, Jones said Russian and military de mands lor era n are increasing ana warned inui aciay in acquir ing the Canadian supply would produce a "tragedy unspeak able". There Is danger of a short age of wheat for milling pur poses In this country", Jones advised. With the vast, amount of live stock and poultry, it would be a tragedy unspeakable if we get Into a situation where later wc lust don't have the feed for our livestock". COULp BE. Two men named Wood and Stone were standing on a stret corner. A pretty girl walked by. Wood turned to Stone. Stone turned to Wood. Then they both turned to rubber, and the girl turned into a drug store. LET'S STOP AND THINK. Probably at no time In history until the last few months, has there been such a universal ten dency among people with some thing to sell, to tell prospective customers to curtail purchases. Here's where we caution you! Feed supplies will be short again this year. ANYBODY telling you the contrary just doesn't know the facts. In the feed business, It is going to be rationing, quotas and goals. If we don't fall in line, we have a fine chance to get pushed in. Goals for Oregon have been set at 96 of last year's eggs, 74 of last year's broilers, and 92 of last-years turkeys. Ore gon is in a "feed deficit area", so i) we don't submit, it is en tirely possible that Washington will cut off our feed supplies to meet their pattern. All tnis re gardless of whether or not there are actual shortages. We beg that you take these facts into consideration when nlanning your operations for 1944. Maybe if Lane County and Jackson County comply. Doug las County might ignore goals. But just suppose they feel the same way, an we all get In the soup! Don't you think we bet ter all be good until the War is won? CORN. Yes, believe it or -lot, we can now sell corn. Wh.ie. cracked or ground. It is only a matter of getting It. We have it on the road, but It may be three or four days until it arrives. BREEDER'S MASH We now find it possible to get the necessary ingredients for our famous Umpqua Breeder's Mash again. We will start mak ing it in plenty of time for the coming turkey breeding season. As usual, it will have the kick, and will be the most economical mash you can buy.
