ROSEBURS NEWS-REVIEW, ROSEBURG. OREGON. THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1947 FIVE Grain Purchase Certificates May Again Be Used WASHINGTON, Nov. 13. UP) M. W. Thatcher, head of the National Federation of Grain Cooperatives, said yesterday that President Truman will consider the use of purchase certificates as a means of getting grain to the market. Thatcher told White House re porters after calling on Mr. Tru man that he and some of his associates had recommended the purchasecertificate method as one way of releasing stored wheat. The president, he said, "told us he would look into it." Thatcher said the chief execu tive recalled the successful use of such a plan a year ago last spring In connection wilh the European famine relief program. Under the plan the government would issue certificates for wheat which the farmer could redeem at the prevailing market price either during the current year or the following year. Thatcher said that by making the plan effective January 1, or the beginning of the tax calendar year, the wheat farmer could redeem his certificates for cash whenever he chose for income tax purposes. Thatcher said use of the certi ficate program not only would help get w heat out of the hands of the growers . and on to the market but might also tend to hold down prices. Lumber Orders Up During October PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 13. UP Orders lor Douglas fir lum ber increased last month and H. V. Simpson, executive vice-president ol the West Coast Lumber men's Association, said it indicat ed heavier than usual winter construction Is in prospect. Orders averaged 146,201,000 board leet per week in October compared with 132,GU1,000 in September, Simpson said, and added that the cumulative orders for the first 44 weeks of this year were more than a half billion leet greater than lor the same period last year. The high inventory continues, Simpson said, due to a critical shortage of boxcars, principally south of Portland, although the month-end report shows 5o9,756, 000 board feel on hand at the end of October as compared with 579.80S,0u0 a month earlier. This leveling off still leaves the inventory nearly 100,000,000 feet above that of last year at this time and western Oregon mill operators report no easing In the boxcar situation, Simpson said. Production last month averaged 146,3S2,000 feet weekly, up slight ly from the 116,204,000 weekly average ol September. Annua!

Si, - ' For her role of Amber in Twentieth Century-Fox' Technicolor production of "Forever Amber," Miss Dar nell dyed her hair an ash "Amber" blonde and changed herself drastically. But, she says, it was worth it to get the most (ought after role in screen history. Virtually every actress in the United State and Great Bri tain was considered for the part, and many of them were tested before Miss Darnell was selected by Darryl F. Zanuck for the coveted role. Cattlemen Wary Of Present Prices WASHINGTON, Nov. 12. UP) Reports being received by the Agriculture Department Indicate that not all cattlemen are pleas ed with the present high price of beef cattle. Some cattlemen are skittish about buying young cattle to fat ten for future markets. They are afraid that by the time the cattle are ready for market, prices may be down and they will lose money. In the case of young cattle put on grass, it takes two to three years for the animal to reach market weight and condition. Most cattle feeders in the mid west do not raise their own cattle, but depend upon the western ranges for supplies. A feeder has no way of know ing whether the $25 per hundred pounds he might pay for young cattle will be a safe Investment for a market two or three years away. Even farmers who engage In "short-term" feeding ODerations are skeptical of the future. The department reported recently that there has been a 16 per cent decline from last year In the number of cattle being bought lor feeding for next spring's slaughter market. "Cattle feeders view with cau tion the size of the Investment required for feeding operations at current price levels," the de partment said. Not only are prices of young cattle high but so too are feed grain prices. mis concern over me possi bility of a drop In farm prices within a year or so Is causing the nation's cattle numbers to decline . Bang's Disease Losses Cut by New Vaccine EAST LANSING, Mich. UP) A new vaccine for cattle develop ed by Dr. I. Forest Huddloson, Michigan State College bacteriol ogist, shows good promise of pre venting the spread of Hang's dis ease in cattle herds, and thus les sening the danger of undulant fe ver in humans. The brucella vaccine will be used In widescale tests on Michi gan dairy herds. In experiments on private herds during the last two years, the vaccine limited the spread of the costly Bang's dis ease to four per cent of the sus ceptible animals. Undulant fever In humans Is spread by contact with Infectious material from animals. Mother, 19, Baby Found Dead of Gun Wounds CORVALLIS, Ore., Nov. 12.

(Maybe) Yesterday Sis Martin, our li brarian, found an article cut from their file copy of the Clarion. When she compared it with another copy that I gave her she found it was my column on "How to Keep a Hus band Happy." Nothing unusual about that. Ex cept the last person seen reading the paper was Prissy Hoskins (our town's proverbial Old Maid) I Well, if Prissy has finally got a man, more power to her. And mora tolerance to both of them . . be cause that's what my column was about: Tolerance of a husband's taste for old hata, old pipes, old friends, and mellow beer. And tol eranre on the husband's part of a wife's tastes and habits. From where I sit, nobody be grudges Prissy taking that clip ping from the Clarion. But I'd like to hint that if she'd just tubtcribt, she'd get my thoughts on tolerance firsthand. And in return I'll treat her to a glass of beer.
