TOWN and FARM in WARTIME Prepared by OFFICE OF WAR INFORMATION FOOD RATIONING NEWS GIVEN From now on all food stamps will be good indefinitely, unless advance notice of expiration is given, the office of price admin istration has announced. House wives may budget their food purchases on the basis of three red 10-point stamps every sec ond Sunday and five blue 10- point stamps the first of every month. To release cold storage space for other food, all frozen fruits and vegetables will not be rationed through April 29. Lard will remain ilnrationed, ready-to- eat hams will be one point lower, “dry-cured” hams are to be only one point above fresh hams, and other meat point values will re main almost unchanged. Food ex pected to be in good supply over most of the country during the next three months are: potatoes, cabbage, spinach, lettuce and oth er greens, carrots, beets, cit rus fruits, canned green and wax FARMERS GET ATTENTION beans, tomatoes and other fresh vegetables, frozen vegetables, shell eggs, fluid milk, bread, flour, noodles and spaghetti. The war food administration says each civilian will have on the av erage 132 pounds of meat in 1944, or one pound morer than he had on the average during the decade, 1931-1940. DRAFT JUGGLED RECLASSIFICATIONS AGAIN Plans for getting farm produce to market and supplies to farms by motor truck include use of one farmer’s truck to do what several farmers’ trucks formerly did, the office of defense trans portation says. Wasteful prac tices ODT frowns upon include — transporting farm products be yond nearest practicable market; operating empty vehicles when a full or partial load is available; operating with less than a full load where a regular collection service is available; operating in scheduled service over highways likely to cause undue wear; use of a heavy or large vehicle when a lighter one is available and suit able; and hauling persons when other transportation is available. ODT and WFA officials are now explaining the ODT program in a series of regional meetings.
