The magic of modern dairy industry makes it nossihlp to shrink fh,
quarts of fluid milk into one quart of dried milk. Add water and dried
milk powder becomes fluid again. Dried milk is in great demand for
export to friendly nations abroad. It takes little space in the holds
of ships, stays sweet without refrigeration, and can be used as a sub
stitute for fresh milk for children. The U. S. Department of Agriculture
has placed dried milk high on the list of "defense foods" whose increased
production is sought during 1941 and '42.

Labor Shortage
Cited as Worst
Food Drive Foe
Shortage of farm labor is the only
serious obstacle in the way of Ore
gon meeting its goals in the food-for-defense
program, in the opinion
of county USDA agricultural de
fense boards, which have held meet
ings in all of Oregon's 36 counties.
Members of the state board who
participated in the 36 county meet
ings report that, almost without ex
ception, the county boards believed
the desired increases in certain
strategic crops can be met if en
ough labor is available to do the
work. In numerous instances the
county groups were willing to set
their goals at a higher figure than
suggested for that particular region.
Compilation of the county goals is
now being made and will, when to
taled, constitute the final and offi
cial state goals for 1942.
Those who attended the county
meetings were practically unani
mous in expressing belief in the im
portance of this agricultural defense
effort. As soon as the county meet
ings were completed a series of
training meetings were started for
those who will contact individual
farmers to get them to underwrite
the increased production sought.
Meanwhile community education
al meetings will be held to acquaint
more of the people with the pro
gram, and county defense board
members will also discuss the cam
paign before grange, Farmers Union,
and other established rural groups.
The farm to farm canvass for the
signing up of each grower will start
in some counties the last week in
October and in others late in No-

has been set for November 8, when

vember.
The state committee ahs been in
contact with the representatives of
the state employment service in lay
ing preliminary plans to handle the
expected labor shortage in the best
possible manner for next year.
Closely related to this is the effort
to have farmers put all machinery
in repair this winter so that exist
ing equipment can handle the max
imum amount of work in next year's
harvest. Maximum use of existing
machinery will make less acute the
prospective shortage in new machinery.

THERE GOES A TIRE!
. . . but why junk the cart
Any car can have a blowout in a tire.
But you wouldn't junk the car. You'd
just fix the tire or replace it.
That's very much like a situation that
exists in the retailing of beer. Beer retail
ing has its "flat tires," too retailers
who disobey the law or who permit un
savory conditions.
To protect your right to drink good
beer, we of the beer industry want to
eliminate the few "flat tire" retailers.
Here's another reason: Right here in
Oregon, beer has provided employment
for 13,238 persons, supports an annual
payroll of $11,541,550 and paid $617,
020.86 in state taxes last year.
The state, too, has an important stake
in the beer industry's purchases for
material, equipment and services from
more than 100 other industries.
Those benefits are worth preserving.
You can help us preserve them by patron
izing only the reputable and legal places
where beer is sold and by reporting any
law violations you may observe to the
duly constituted authorities.
