Restrictions on gasoline ra
tions for servicemen on furlough
have been eased somewhat, ac
cording to the local war price
and ration board. Furlough ra
tions will still be issued at the
rate of a gallon a day, but the
30-gallon maximum has been re
moved. This will enable re
leased American prisoners-of-war,
who get leave or temporary
duty assignments for 60 days,
and other overseas veterans who
get more than 30 days leave, to
get a gallon a day for the entire
length of their furlough, or tem
porary duty in this country.
It is slated that the service
men applying for furlough gaso

pigs in a litter.

FOR IRRIGATION
County Watermaster Clinton
Smith reports prospects for
crops in areas that depend on
stream flow for irrigation are
excellent though it may be diffi
cult to keep acreages within
their water quota during the
"latter part of August. The
streams have started to fall.
The May rains and current
weather conditions have revived
many grain crops that looked
feeble in the spring, the water-
master states. Crops on dry land
farms also look good. There is an
abundant hay crop in all sections
of the valley, with the second
cutting now underway. In many
districts the labor lack is solved
by the neighbors helping each
other on a rotation basis.
Threshing of wheat is antici
pated to get underway shortly
auer me i'ourth of July.
