JACKSON COUNTY FARM NOTES Compiled by County OHlcs 0. S. C. Extension Service Mora Maat Production It 1845 Farm War Job To help offset the reduction In red meat, WFA seeks more poultry meat production. As an inducement, ceiling prices on broilers, fryers and roasters will increase an average of 1.3 cents per pound on July. With hog marketings down more than a third from a year earlier, farm ers are urged to meet the 194S fall pig goal of 37 million head, which is 18 per cent more than last fall's crop. The support price, Chicago basis, has been raised to si- per nunareaweigm on all good and choice butcher hogs u to 300 pounds. Ranch ers and farmers are urged to market their cattle and calves soon as they nre ready. . This would result in more meat now when it U most needed and would help prevent congested fall markets and other market ing difficulties. If farmers achieve the 1945 slaughter goal for cattle and calves, they will market about 17 million head, about three million more than in 1044. Cattle Feeders To Get Subsidy County AAA committees soon will receive instructions for mak ing 50 cents a hundredweight payments to feeders who feed cattle for at least 30 days and market it as grade A or grade AA beef. It is expected that the program will be handled similar to the dairy feed payment set up, with payments being in the form of a sight draft on Com modity Credit made on the basis of the feeder's sales receipts. FATHER'S DAY CARDS Father's Day Is June 17th. Time now to select cards to send overseas. SWEM'S Book and Gift Shop Grade AA or choice beef has a dressed carcass yield of 61 per cent and grade A or good has a yield of 58 per cent. It is ob vious that this subsidy will not effect many feeders as it takes a mighty good animal to carry this high percentage. Farmers Oat Break On Surplus Trucks Farmers will get first choice on. surplus trucks and other tarm machinery under a new dis posal system which goes into ef fect on June 1. WFA will determine the areas where surplus farm equipment Is to be sold. These areas will be where farm production is Im paired or impairment is threat ened by a shortage of trucks or other farm equipment. The Surplus Property board will de cide the kinds and amounts to be made available for each area and direct the Department of Commerce to make the equip ment available immediately, al.aead of all other priorities. This equipment will be sold only to dealers who agree to sell ex clusively to farmers in the area. To purchase surplus trucks, farmers or farmer cooperatives will be required to present cer tificates issued by their county Triple-A committee. No certifi-1 cates will be required for sur plus farm machinery and equip ment. Dealers will be required to notify Triple-A committees of the number and description of trucks available to farmers in their county and will be advised of the farmers and farmers' co operative associations holding AAA certificates. Dealers will furnish reports giving the name and address of each purchaser of surplus trucks. Farm Power Extensions Power extensions and connec tions to .farms may now be made by utility companies with out WPB approval if materials are available, according to new regulations. Farm applications for such service no longer need be filed by applicants with the county AAA committees, wheth- Flower Plant SALE '"YiF This week It your last chance to get 72 growing flower plantt, many in bud, all ready to let out in your yard, at the unbe lievably low price of $2.00.

Elm Beetle Elm beetle are now working on elm trees and can be con trolled by spraying with arsenate of lead. Use three pounds per 100 or a tablespoon per gallon. These elm beetles are about a quarter inch long and light brown with a dark brown stripe along each side. When disturb ed they drop from the leaves and fall to the ground or fly away. The adult beetles eat holes in the leaves and lay yellowish egg clusters on the undersides of the leaves. These eggs hatch into a slug-like larvae. These slugs skeletonize the leaves and un less controlled, the treet will sometimes become bare.

I know so well how it is with a woman and the place she can call her own. Too, I re membered how this girl had al ways loved the various homes she had had during the years of her marriage. These had been many, and none of them very good, for they had married dur ing the depression and the going had been hard. Now she was making another home; or trying to. Yet I know that for her any home would be but half a home without a mate to share it with her, for there are such women. In fact I think the normal woman is that way. She was not yet completely es tablished in her apartment and so the new dishes were in color ful disarray over the table. There was a large white coffee pot. "Bill always made fun of my doll-sized coffee pot. I got a big one this time." (How gal lant the smile! How heart-twisting the tremulous lips!) Oh, I could go on and on, re viewing the lives of those we know who have divorced and re married yet who by theh" ae tions, sometimes by their own confession, never again experi ence the high sweet flame ot their first love. There are ex ceptions, but for the majority, divorce has been a mistake. Banking Committee Oks Bretton Woods Washington. May 24 U.R The House Banking committee approved the Bretton Woods agreements by a 23 to 3 vote to day, giving the administration a thumping first-round victory on that sector of Its foreign policy front. Before voting, the committee amended the bill to meet com1 plaints of critics of the powers proposed for the huge interna tional bank of reconstruction and development and the mone tary stabilization fund. Those critics had argued that the fund intended to stabilize the values ot foreign currencies POLISHES sum Without Rubbing r.i.H RAIN DROPS AMERICA'S WASH WORD s Thunder.

The committee adopted two amendments giving the Ameri can interpretation of the powers of the bank and fund. Hollywood, May 24 (U.R) Movie Starlet Claire James to day abandoned plans to divorce her second husband.' Schilling '""Vanilla makes milk a new taste delight It is my belief that no statistics are so misleading as those on di vorce; misleading, that is, if each divorce is supposed to have written "finis" to the love the divorced ones had for each other. Last evening my husband and I took, an accounting of the cou ples we know who have di vorced. With few exceptions, we decided, the parties regret the separations. What started us thinking along this line was the young woman we met on our way to town. By mutual consent she and her husband had separated several years ago. Both have confided to friends the wish they hadn't. To one, the man said when he considers remarrying, always the girl he has in mind falls so far short of the ideal his wife set for him that he can't go through with it. I do not know that she has made a like state ment but the evidence is that she has never got over loving the man she divorced. As I said, we met her. She had, at long last, she said, found an apartment. Wouldn't we like to go and see it? We would. We did. She showed us' Into the little tWM I'W'J 1 WW.
