SPRING MATERIAL
FOUND ADEQUATE
Those of our readers who have
come to believe that clothing was
going to be as scarce as ham. can
take heart to some extent. The 1
News has just been told that Mrs. |
Vella Hayes, buyer for the Gold
en Rule store in Grants Pass, has 1
just returned from a buying trip
to I.os Angeles and San Francisco,
and she reports that spring and .
summer merchandise is now com I
ing in, and the Golden Rule is get
ting its share of this valuable mer
chandise.
Ready-to-wear togs and other
goods are coming through some
what better than was supposed to
be the case, and while quantity is
still not what the store would like
to have, nevertheless, they will be
able to take care of the r custom
ers in a satisfactory way for all
,
concerned. The new merchandise
ing, and while not up to the high
arriving is snappy and good look
standards of other years, is quite
remarkable in its texture.

Less Red Tape Now for
(Jetting Farm Materials
•ALMANAC*:
Farmers will get quick action on
applications for materials and fa
cilities needed for production as a
result of the recent decentraliza-
tion of war production board auth.
ority, believes R. B Taylor, chair-
man of Oregon’s USDA war board.
Applications for on-farm con
struction will continue to be filed
with county USDA war boards,
but final approval will be given by
WPB regional offices instead of
at Washington. DC. Farmers’ ap
plications for copper wire and
other materials under priorities
will be filed with the Portland war
production board office. A sup
porting statement from the county
war board to accompany such ap
plications may help, though this is
not required.
No priorities are needed to pur-
chase repair parts for farm ma
chinery and equipment, Taylor re
minded.

NATIVE OREGON
SPRING CROPS
By Ruth E. Crawford
One serving of steamer mustard
or turnip greens furnishes more
than the daily requirement of a
hard-working man or woman for
Vitamin A. Vitamin A is espe
cially helpful in spring to de
velop resistance and to prevent
nutritional night blindness in these
days of dim-outs.
This simple
food is ready now to be pulled
from many Oregon fields and gar
dens. Wash, trim and cook by
steaming, wilting or boiling. Be
sides Vitamin A. one serving of
steamed mustard or turnip greens
will provide about
of the day's
need for iron and Vitamin C which
are especially scarce in these days
of meat shortages, and of few
freshly grovfn vegetables.
Other native greens that are in
edible condition now in Western
Oregon are dandelion, false dande
lion or Chinese lettuce, Indian let
tuce and curly dock. All are high
in food values and recommended
as "spring tonics”. As an aid in
identifying these and several oth
er edible wild greens, illustrated
circular HE ", “Wild Plants Eat
en as Greens,” is available at the
county extension office, free of
charge.
Those who are fortunate enough
to secure some of the scarce spring
run of salmon or other fish may
be interested in the following bul
letins as an aid in preserving them
for meat rationed days:

These heavy tanks are needed tor

and with their thick armor and
heavy-gauge guns they are almost
unstoppable. They are considered

38 YEARS
in years — but in
Only 456 months, not a great measure of time
events much, indeed, has happened since the GOLDEN RULE
opened in Grants Pass on the 8th of April, 1905.
These are “war days" and as in World War One, the Golden Rule is
trying to serve its customers and supply the merchandise they
need.
This Anniversary we “DO” and “DO NOT” celebrate with a
“Birthday Sale” in the customary method of making price reduc
tion'. of closing out certain lines of merchandise, and there are
no “specials" where value and price combined make unusual bar
gains. But. this “War" Anniversary The Golden Rule does have
merchandise.
On the other hand, we are trying, on our birthday, to render the
kind of service our customers can appreciate during these stren
uous war times, when merchandise is exceptionally hard to get,
but the Golden Rule is blessed with a stock, which we sincerely
hope, will be adequate to meet the needs of our thousands of pat
rons. And we invite you good people of the Illinois Valley to our
store and we will give you every assistance within our power to
make your shopping pleasant and profitable.
