Luudcrdulc. arm security supervisor, courthouse, reports tnut ine larm security uuniinlstrution In Klamath coun ty hus been uulhorizcd to make loans to farmers and to World War II veterans for the purpose of purchasing fusms under the provisions - of the Bankhead Joncs iurm purchase act. Some of the details are as follows: ... Eligibility: All veterans of World War II with farm back- ground and experience qualify ing them to operate a farm are eligible. Civilian owners and operators of inadequate farms, and farm tenants .may apply. Preference will be given those veterans and farmers who are married and have dependents. It is necessary that you already own suinclcnt stock and ma chinery to equip a farm on a going, paying basis, or that you have sufficient money available to make the necessary purchases to adequately equip a farm. You must be a farmer, and must have been successful enough to own or be able to purchase your stock and equipment.

IW WEEDKILLER E The new weedkiller known as 2-4-D differs from other chemi cals used for the purpose in sev eral ways. It belongs to the group of chemical substances that have come to be recognized in recent years as "plant growth regulating substances, accord ing to Dr. John W. Michell of the U. b. department of agriculture, When sprayed on certain plants this chemical affects the whole plant, rather than merely the parts sprayed as is true of some other weedkillers. Finally, and of great practical importance, is the fact that it affects some groups of plants powerfully, and has little effect on other groups. The continent of Asia has great uninhabited areas, yet it contains about one-half of the earth s people. Nick Delis Co. POTATOES AND ONIONS Potato sheds located al Stukel, Pine Grove, Adami Point.
