DICK Phone 622 Heppner, Oregon flam tocte (to Keep Your War Bonds- Let's stay in the fight. Unwise buying: now sends prices up, hurts the war effort, hurts the country, hurts you. Hold your bonds. He hasn't stopped fighting let's not stop buying bonds. Leveling off seems to be taking place in most lines of business. Retail and wholesale concerns have little difficulty in moving out all the goods they can locate. The fear of shortages no longer seems to be so general. Most of the hoarding that is going to be done has already taken place and the fear of high er prices seems to be abating among most classes of people. Retail food prices showed a decline of 5.2 from the corresponding per iod in 1943. You will find our prices in line and quality of the very best obtainable. All we ask is a trial. Central Market NT NO SINGLE fact is more vital to the future of America than the fact that trees grow. Wood has proved to be such a vital material in war, and its myriad uses are expanding to rapidly, that it may well be rated as our No. 1 raw material. To perpetuate this resource, by growing new crops of trees, is a job in which forest operators and the pubhc must cooperate. The great enemy of forests is fire. Most forest fires are caused by man's carelessness. The one completely effective way to fight fire is to prevent fire. Fires must be fought after they start, but it's a cosdy process with uncertain results. Prevention is certain. Do your share in preventing forest fires by making sure no act of yours can start one.
