Mattress Plan
is Explained
Clackamas county agent J. J. Ins-
keep of the Oregon extension ser­
vice announces that rural people of
the county will have an opportunity
whereby they can have new mattres­
ses for their homes and at the samç
time be a good neighbor to our cot­
ton farmers o f he south.
Just as Oregon has certain surplus
commodities to dispose o f since the
loss o f their foreign markets so thi
cotton farmer has millions o f bales
o f cotton in their warehoues. Thri|
the efforts o f the U. S. departmenr
o f agriculture and its agencies this
surplus cotton is being made avail­
able for mattresses. For each famil;j
that is interested and can qualify
under the eligibility regulations as
listed in this article there are 50
pounds o f cotton and 10 yards of
ticking available for the construction
o f a high quality mattress.
The extension service, agriculture
al adjustment administration surplus
marketing administration, farm se,
curity administration and county
court are cooperating to make this
program posible.
Mattress making centers will br,
established. The home demonstration
agent and home supervisor o f th i
farm security administration will
train leaders and supervise the con­
struction o f these mattresses. The
only cost to the families will be the
effort to make them and a nominal
fee for the twine, thread and needle^
used in their construation.
Clackamas county is doubly inter­
ested in this national program be­
cause each year we send thousands o (
pounds o f vetch and pea seed to the
soutth for their soil building and soil
conserving piograms states Inskeep.
Those who qualify under the eli­
gibility plans o f this program should
contact the extension service, agri­
cultural adjustment administration
or farm security office for an appli­
cation blank. These applications may
besigned at these offices or at com»
munity meetings held by these agen­
cies thruout the county.
All applications must be on file in
these offices by April l. It is esta-
niated that 1000 mattresses will be
made in Clackamas county under this
program.
A farm family whose net income
is $500 or less per year for a family
o f one to four persons may qualify.
If there are more than four family
members $50 for each additional
members may !)<• added; five members
$550; six members $600.
To determine the net income sub­
tract the cost o f operation o f the'
farm from the total income from all
farm sources sale o f crops, livestock,
etc. The cost o f operation will in­
clude such items as labor hired out­
side o f the family, feed purchased,
taxes paid, water rights, threshing
expense.
A part time farm family may qual^
ify if at least half the income is
from agriculture and if their total
net income from farm and non-farm
sources is not over $500 for a fam,
ily o f four members. An additional
$50 may be added to this income fo»
each additional family member; $550
for five members, $600 for six mem­
bers, etc.
The total net income from farm
sources plus the total income from
other sources is the gross income of
the part-time farmer. An additional
$100 may be subtracted from thi:
grosg amount to determine the net
income that will meet eligibility re­
quirements for this purpose.
A non-farm family living in a ru­
ral area under a population o f 2500
(1940 census) may qualify if their
gross income is $500 or less per fam­
ily o f one to four members, over fous
members add $50 for each additional
family member.
Each eligible family may receive
material to make one full size mat-
tresg for each two persons in the
family, but the total is not to ex-
ceed three mattresses to a family.
If the family has already received
one mattress under the cotton mat­
tress program or the Works Projectc
administration this is included in de­
termining the total number which it
may receive. A family o f three may
receive only one mattress; a family
o f five two.
