Average 15 Per Cent In
crease Next Season Is
Urged By USDA Chairman
Portland, Ore., Dee. 7. (U.R)
Oregon farmers must better
their 1942 production record by
an average of 19 per cent next
season as their contribution to
the food for victory campaign,
R. B. Taylor, Adams, Ore., Ore
gon USDA War board chairman,
said today.
He outlined the state crop pro
gram as presented by Secretary
of Agriculture Claude R. Wick
ard at the recent regional meet
ing of war boards and farm
leaders in Denver.
Milk Boost Urged
The 1943 crop quota from
Oregon calls for increased pro
duction of livestock and poultry
and at least a billion and a half
pounds of milk, Taylor said, de
spite the shortage of farm labor
and the scarcity of feed.
Other crop goals included:
Fifteen per cent increase in
hogs, or pig crops from 43,000

IONG BEFORE this, we hope,
' you've discovered that in
many a Standard Station women
are at work. You've realized.
Do doubt, that they're replacing
Den who have marched away
to war. But it's just possible .
mat you haven't heard that the .
men they're replacing are often
times their own menfolk.
- Many are the wife or daugh
ter occasionally one is the
mother of a service man. And
h's no accident. It's a Standard
ef California policy. When our
station men commenced chang
ing our uniform for Uncle .
Sam's, it was decided ttrvici
women should have priorities
on the jobs they left behind
them.
Naturally, first call goes to
the womenfolk of our own
boys. But the rule is simply that
any woman who has given
man to the service rates prefer
ence. It's a good rule, we think.
Who has a better right? Who
has a greater stake in the coon
try? Who realizes more clearly
the need to "carry on"?
The public has accepted mis
war-time readjustment with un
derstanding. There have been
tome rough spots, we know.
But just you watch. Our "girls"
are turning out to be dandies
and Yankee Doodle dandies,
to boot. Your courtesy is mak
ing things easier for them and
for us. May we put our appre
ciation in two words: Thank
yon.
