1 Y JACKSON COUNTY FARM NOTES Compiled by County Office O. S. C. Extension Service Farmer Confidence If Anderson's Aim Clinton Anderson, the new secretary of agriculture, has said that one of his most important objectives as the nation's new food chief will be to create farm er confidence that abundant pro duction will not bring on anoth er postwar depression. This, he said, will involve a coordination of food production and pricing policies to encour age maximum output while still holding the line against infla tion. The new secretary pointed out that the government and the people have "strong hopes" for a high level of employment which would support abundant production and consumption of agricultural commodities in the postwar period. Secretary Anderson has de scribed these four problems as his immediate concern and as fundamental to a sound food pro gram: (1) Abundant production to meet wartime requirements; (2) The guarantees farmers need from government to get greater production; (3) Necessary action to make good on the promises of government to farmers: (4) Improvements in distribution so that supplies may be shared more fairly among all.

Veterans Get Break In Equipping Farms The recent actions are aimed at helping veterans of this war establish or reestablish them selves on farms. GI Joe can get a priority certificate from his county AAA committee for pur chase of new farm machinery that will give preference to his application over nearly all other buyers. The committee will give him preference for lumber, cop per wire, engines, electric mo tors and farm building permits. And he can buy up to $2500 of surplus war property to equip his farm, including trucks, trac tors, and any other surplus items useful on the farm. The county committee will certify his appli cation to the Small War Plants Corporation, which will locate the surplus property and sell it to the veteran. R. G. FOWLER, County Agent. Cherry Slugs Busy In Many Trees Many cherry trees are showing the effects of cherry slugs. These slugs feed on the upper surface of the leaves. The leaves then turn brown and appear partly skeletonized. The slugs vary in size according to age so may be found from very small up to one half inch in length. As the slugs are heavy feeders and consume much of the upper leaf surface they are easily controlled by spraying with lead arsenate.
