R EG ISTR A TIO N IN DICA TES IN CREA SE IN P O P U L A T IO N Registration figures released by County Clerk H. S. Sackett indicate that despite the induction of hundreds of Mal heur county men into the armed forces and defense industries the number of eligible voters is now greater than it was in 1940. Increased registration does not al ways indicate an increase in population, but because of the almost total absence of interest in the primary election the boost in registration must almost cer tainly be due to an influx of adults into thi£ county. Many of the men who left the county were young men, some of whom had not registered to vote. In some years the increase could be accounted for by intense interest in an election, but certainly not this year, when everyone’s thoughts turn to war. The total democrat and republican registration in 1940 was 5905 and this year it is 6816, a gain of 911. Other reg istrations brought the total this year to 6954. The registration figure is just anot her indication of the favorable economic — I AM H A N D LIN G — Real Estate M ake Y our Listings W ith Me A. L.

Some eastern Oregon counties are losing population to the armed forces and defense industries on the coast and have no interests to draw other persons to their areas. The removal of persons to Malheur county from other areas pro- ably centers about the various phases of agriculture. An Ontario clothing merchant rec ently said that he realized that many families were leaving Malheur county, but that his business is better than it was last year. He said further that the cus tomers are “coming from somewhere”. It doesn’t seem possible that with the migration from Malheur county the population could increase, but at this particular time the registration figures should be a conservative indication of the population trend. In any event, belief that our loss of population has been off set by an influx of new families is a good morale stimulator—and we believe it is more than that. A far.r garden on every farm is needed this year and for the dura- ticn to add to the nation's food supply of necessary vegetables. ‘ Aimed forces will require large parts of the '•ommerclal or can ned and dried packs of vegetables.'’ County Agent K. E. Brooke said •Our Allies will get* a large seg ment of this pack. Transportation congestion will be relieved to the extent that 50 million farms will produce their cwn vegetables right where they will be used. Then, too, vegetables can be expected to be higher in price. By growing these vegetables cn the farm for fam ily use. cash outlays for food will u; less. There Is the health factor too — vegetables In the diet for better health. ■'It is not too late to plan and plant a vegetable garden. The plantings can be limited to essen tial green, leafy, and yellow veg etables. Lettuce, cabbage, carrots, squash, par. nips, tomato .s. beets, beans, and peas are among the suggestions. "Farmers who had not grown vegetable gardens in recent years can help the war effort for food production by growing a garden this year.'1 SAN FRANCISCO, April 30, (Special»—George L.
