Box 393, Lebanon, Ore. 40p Mrs. America Meets the War The distribution of war ration book two sometime early in 1943 will introduce Mrs. 'America to a new form of rafioning. This system known as point rationing will be different than the present form of coupon rationing used , for coffee and sugar. As the name implies, scarce but essential goods will be rationed by points. Those within one group will have different values, according to relative scarcity. For example, tenderloin steak might require more coupons because of a higher point value. On the other hand, hamburger being more avail able would have a lower point value The number on each stamp will tell how many points it is worth, and it also will bear the date during which it will be valid. War babies layettes will not be minus waterproof crib sheeting or rubber panties despite the rubber shortage. The substitute material may not be just the same, however, waterproof goods are made from or dinary cotton fabrics coated with plastics, synthetic resins and other cleaned with warm water and compounds. The fabrics can be mild soap, but they should not be wrung or twisted in any way. And, incidentally, those products are price controlled. When fruits arid vegetables can ned during 1943 start showing up on your grocer's shelves, you may expect them to be uniformlly la beled according to grade, regard less of the packer. This requisite by office of price administration re veals a trend to include informa tion on quality in price orders wher ever possible. It is expected that dollars and cents maximum ceiling prices will be "set for canned goods following the stanardized grade la beling. And in that way a woman will be able to refer to specific prices instead of having to remem ber back to a distant base period. About half of the 1943 pack of fruits, vegetables and juices has been earmarked for the armed forces and lend-lease, but most of these will not be concumed until 1944. ' . If you've been unable to secure think about the shortage of chicle, chewing gum as readily as usual one of its most important ingredi ents. Chicle is the coagulated sap of a tall tropical evergreen tree, the Sopodilla, which grows wild in the jungles of Mexico .Guatemala, British Honduras and Venezuela. It takes 30 years before a tree pro duces chicle ,and then it should be tapped only once in six seasons. But the main difficulty is that shipping spoce is scarce on ships for the importation of chicle. And then perhaps there is an increase of stenographers chewing gum or consumer demand is greatly in creased, "and there are' large pur chases of gum by our armed forces. This year's output almost equals the 1941 record of 15 billion sticks of gum chewed. Mrs. America's junior may not always be able to get his favorite candy bar. And that's because chocolate soldiers are in the war too providing nourishment to the armed forces in the Solomons, in Africa or Australia. Normally, Am erica's sweet tooth demands for chocolate bars reaches 400 million pounds. Of course, this year much of this poundage will be diverted to soldier boys. The soldier's emergen cy food package, ration D, contains hard chocolate and sugar ,and candy makers also supply the concentrated ration K. Mrs. America's 1943 Easter out fit should not cost her more than it did last season. The OPA provid ed this safeguard despite increased labor and materials costs by set ting manufacturer's ceiling prices for all women's, girls' and children's garments manufactured after Dec. 15. Before the garments go on the market next spring and summer retailers' nad wholesalers' maxi mum prices will be set. And it is intended that spring and summer clothing be almost equal in qual ity and workmanship to that of last season. Yes, we may have no bananas, but we do have a reduction in prices charged by importers and wholesalers. And there still is no encouragement that there will be any increase in the limited supply reaching our shores.

Babson's Authentic Statement Of course, the present actions of our navy in the Pacific are merely to keep the Japanese from pouncing on Russia at Vladivostok. They are no part of the coming campaign to clean up Japan. All of this means that the general war news during 1943 will be better than ' that of 1942. CONCLUSION ness further cuts in civilian busi It is probable that 1943 will wit ness that victory models and stan dardization will be compulsory, that manpower will be rationed as well as commodities, that a sales tax will be inaugurated, that subsidies will be extended, and that inflation like a great glacier, will continue slowly to push up prices; but what of it? We grow by striving, not by arriving. Character gains during 1943 will by far offset all losses and inconveniences. This Global War will be a great blessing to all the world by bringing about that spir itual awakening which is the only solution to our troubles.

FARM TRACTORS" IN WARTIME simpie Adjustments Pep 'CjtTTTaetorB (Third of a Seriet of Six Articles) By A. P. Peck Managing Editor, Scientific American , Last week's article told how the farmer can practice preventive maintenance on his tractor, thus effectively stopping trouble befort it starts. But there is another side to tractor care also, a side that too often is neglected. ' Tractors are getting harder usage than ever there days, with the struggle to keep up with the increasing demand for-agricultural products, i and this hard usage causes engine parts to get out -ma,;? 'x P.ck power A. P. :ion in :ractor. Every prevent of adjustment more frequent ly than before. Usually, how ever, the changes are effected so gradually that they pass un noticed until they become large enough to cause engine failure or a sub stantial reduc dclivered by the fanner can take steps to such failure or power losses, merely by making it a practice to tune up the engine regularly, l-'ir.-t on the tune-up list should he the carburetor adjust ir?r.t. This should always be done when the engine is thoroughly wr.n.icd up, and is operating on the belt at normal load. Simply turn down 'the needle valve until the er.i-ie misses and backfires. Then t;-rn the valve back about a quarter of a turn until the engine runs oo! lily. This is a correct posi tion for most efficient operation. Spark plugs are the next thing .hat should be looked at on regu lar lunc-up occasions. They should ail be removed and the insulators cleaned thoroughly, after which the gaps should be reset to the correct seeing and the plugs replaced stuigly in their holes, lie sure, of course, that you are using the type of plug required by your tractor; v.I:in operating on gasoline the l '. i?s should be of the cold type, c tractor engines burning dis- be x t: .r.te or kerosene must e pped with hot plugs. The governor on your tractor is the device that keeps the engine 0' :r.".nig at a constant speed i.lcii is most efficient for the work to be done. With this device out of adjustment, the engine speed will vary and power loss will re sult. When tuning up the engine, check the engine speed with a speed counter on the belt pulley; if the speed is not what it should be, or varies considerably, the gover nor itself should be checked for wear and for reduced tension on the spring. This double, when encountered, should be repaired immediately in order to jeiiervc. maximum engine efficitrtcy. If the valves on your lector en gine are not working properly, there will be another loss of power. Make sure that the tappet clear ance is not too siriall or too great, by checking with a feeler when the engine is at operating temperature. If the valves are held open by insufficient clearance, the valves and scats will be burned; if there is too much clearance, the valves will not open all the way and in sufficient fuel will be drawn into the cylinders. In either case power will be lost, and in the first case the valves and scats will soon be badly damaged. Last but by no means least is the question of ignition timing. This is a rather delicate job, and should only be attempted if. you have available the complete in structions in the manufacturer's manual. If not, better have a service man do the work. In any event, however, you should always include a check of ignition wires and connections in your tune-up. A recent survey showed that a large percentage of farm tractors are working below peak efficiency, some of them wasting as much as 20 percent of the fuel used, all for the want of a simple tune up, a job that can be quickly done in the manner outlined above.
