4 Heppner Gazette Times, August 27, 1942 Mrs. America Meets The War Looks as if the wooden ice box will be back in the American home. The ice box is one of many items in which wood will be replacing metal. And you'll probably be see ing more wooden wash tubs and pails around the house than you have for years. However, the high quality timber will go first of all for military purposes. Are you turning in all the used collapsible tubes around your house so the tin can be reclaimed from them? The turn in of old tube when buying new tubes of tooth paste or shaving cream is bringing in 40 tons of critical materials each month. But WPB officials declare the amount isn't satisfactory. Of course, ever since the WPB order limiting use of tin in containers, many tubed products now are being packaged in other types of contain ers. However, the WPB says there are still many filled tubes in stock or in the hands of consumers. So make a more earnest effort to see that all the old tubes are turned in. Uncle Sam is trying to keep fam ily ties as strong as possible despite the increasing need of war indus tries for women workers. The War Manpower commission pointed out that the first responsibility of wo men with young children, in war as in peace, is to care for them in their own homes. The WMC is urging that no women with young children be encouraged to seek employment in industry if it deprives their chil dren of necessary care, until all other sources of labor supply have been exhausted. However, the choice is left to the individual, and if wo men with young children join pro duction lines, efforts should be made to provide adequate nursery' care through community projects.

And when you learn the price, you'll wonder how John Deere can give you so much in a tractor that sells for so little. In addition, the Model "H" not only burns low cost fuel but it uses only 13 to 12 as much fuel on the many jobs within its power range, as would larger tractors handling the same load. Come in, see it, and get "the surprise of your life."

Stamp Number 8 in your War Ra tion book will be good for the pur chase of five pounds of sugar at any time in the ten-week period be tween August 23rd and October 31. The amount obtainable by this stamp will make it possible for your corner grocer to dispose of his stocks of five, ten and 25 pound packages of sugar. While on the subject of sugar, let's consider some benefits of price con trolling this commodity. Granulated sugar climbed from five cents a pound in 1914 to 27c a pound in 1920. During the war, government controls held prices at 10c a pound, but when the control was taken away after the war, it shot up to an aver age of 18c a pound in 1920, later that year going to 27 V2C a pound. The following year, 1921, deflation brought the price down to GV2C During this war sugar has had a low price of 7c a pound in March, 1942, when the general ceiling went into effect.
