Power Cut It was learned, however, that the committee had followed the lead of th majors in removing son) of th arbitrary power of th commissioner. Th famed "conduct detrimental to base ball" clause, by which th com- mlssioner could punish any club or oaseoau man for action he tnought waa injurious to the grand old game, was modified. under th revision, th malor- minor organization as a whole can overrld th commissioner's action by legislative vot.

C. extension Sarvice Mot Waste Fat Needed Inuneeo'ately This nation la in Immediate need of more wast fat from American kitchens. Th total fat supplies in sight for 1945 are mor than one billion pounds under 1944 production. In the fae of mounting need for war purposes, lend lease and domes- tie civilian use. Last year homemakers turned In 170 million pounds but col lections in the last six months were down 25 compared with the first six months. This year 250 million pounds of salvage fat are needed. Less meat for dry peopl this year probably means less salvage fat from that source. That means farm and rural homes must turn in more than ever before if needs are met. Surveys made In Oregon show that farm families have been turning in an average of 2.2 pounds of waste fat per month but 30 of the families have turned In no fats and 35 said they could turn in more. Rural stores that handle meats have been collecting fat for cen tral collecting agencies. If you have trouble disposing of your waste fat contact the county ex tension office for information. Copper Wire Tighter For Firm Deliveries Tha War Production Board's recent suspension of copper wire deliveries to retailers doe not effect farmers' copper wire cer tificates issued by county AAA committees. These certificates represent allotments of copper wire under the controlled ma terials plan, and retailers may extend them to distributors and manufacturers to obtain wire. Farm copper wire quotas for tha current quarter, however, are somewhat less than quotas for previous quarters. Farm re quests are considerably in ex cess of quotas, and it is probably that many applications cannot be acted upon until after March 31, when the next quarterly quota Is due. Dairy Payments , Continued by AAA Continuation of the dairy pro duction payment program has been announced by the War Food Administration.

This Is a maximum program so some growers who have never had a scab problem and large growers who can't spray that often may wish to adjust it. On a larger acreage, the late dormant spray could be started and as the buds advance the strength could be reduced and the spray finished in the early pink bud stage. Some growers may wish to apply a late dor mant and one pink bud spray or ; no dormant and two pink bud SDrays. Under present pear prices, it is not good business to jeopard ize a crop In order to save a spray. C. B.
