All farm labor offices are n w under civil service, the change being ef fective since March, 1947.

There is plenty of help available, ready to go to work when needed, he said, with the exception of competent ranch and farm cooks, for which there arc five calls In the office at the present time and no listecs for such positions. Fall -seeded grain is coming up nicely now, according to James, the current moisture greatly benefiting the growth. nartment so reported today, add-1 lug that this heavy domestic de-1 mand is getting considerable as-! sistance from expectations that exports mav be larger than an ticipated and "speculative buy ing in the grain markets. Officials said that despite a substantial increase in food prices since most price controls were dropped, the per capita consumption particularly of meats, poultry products, milk and vegetables continues above pre-war levels. Consumers are able to eat well, the deportment declared, because total income payments are at record peacetime levels ' and are still rising. This being the situation, the ! department said farm prices j should hold at "high levels dur-! Ing the next few months." How ever, the agency did not alter a ' previous forecast that prices will turn downward during the sec-1 ond half of the year, possibly as much as 20 per cent. ' Real marine paints.
