Illinois Valley News. Thursday. July 20, 1911 School Children Purchase War Bonds By COLLIER READ THE RULES, UMPI Students in Oregon schools pur chased $9,059,992.50 in war bonds and stamps from September. 1943, to June 1, 1944, representing a per capita investment of $34.33, it was announced by Mrs. F. W. Blum, schools-at-war chairman, Oregon war finance committee. This stand ing does not include participation by college students, who purchased an additional $1,491,063. The purchase of bonds and stamps by Catholic schools of the western archdiocese, which amounted to $252,481.80, a per capita rating of $25.45, has also been omitted from the total. Josephine county pupils purch ased $83,171.50 of the $9,059,- 992.50 amount, Mrs. Blum reports. “We are especially proud of Oregon’s schools-at-war showing,'’ stated E. C. Sammons, state chair man, Oregon war finance commit tee, “since the purchase of $34.33 per pupil compares very favorably with the $19.80 per capita quota set by Washington, D. C.” CLASSIFIED ADS for cunning for outsiders who do not care to . r are prevented by other duties from preparing their produce, or from surplus stock.. The ground work for this can nery was laid last Fall when ar rangements were made to rent a vacant tlevator building, and mem bership- at $10.00 each were sold, and Mrs. Wertz was loaned by the F. S. A. to go to Garden Home, a suburb of Portland, as instructor. How well she has done her job is now being demonstrated in shining rows of well filled cars of cherries, etc., now bei. g processed at the plant. The plant has a capacity of 2,000 cans per day of eight hours and th< y expect to process 100 million cans during the season. M> -. Buck went with Mrs. Wertz for a drive through the districts .served by this cannery and they are made up of nice homes in the hills just out of Portland, and saw three of the five schools that will be servi' g this food to the child ren this foil and winter. The Illinois Valley could very well use such a plant and with very little added expense a dehydration department could be installed. All it needs is very little money per family and a lot of cooperation. o i___ ______________________________________________ LOST—Male short haired white terrier, brindle brown short tail, head and ears with large brown spot around tail.

Oregon --------------o-------------- No Sunday work please. Farm Security Administration Supervisor, B. W. Mceigh, states that the department started its new fiscal year program July 1st, to assist farmers with their credit needs. Congress has authorized the FSA about the same amount of funds as last year for the financ ing of livestock, equipment and water facilities. The funds for land purchasing loans have been greatly reduced, due to the diffi culty in securing good farms at reasonable prices. This credit is available to eligi ble farmers who arp unable to ob tain convenient and adaptable loans from commercial credit asso ciations.
