MORE MILK COWS
ON EVERY FARM
BADLY NEEDED
Betteg adjustment of supplies of meat for our armed i'oropi -; t
civilians is the objective of a meat management plan advocater! i>- ' •?
entire meat industry. The Texas and Southwestern Cattle Ha...;- ».
Association strongly urges a War Meat Board composed of
tatives of consumers, government and industry to assure an a.
supply of quality meat for our fighting forces, maximum quant;-v -o
consumers under rationing and flexibility in rationing to adjust pF-t
values to the amount of meat available.
Under the plan, livestock producers and feeders would con..... e c
on providing meat without cumbersome restrictions, unccr .>
subsidies, rollbacks and experiments that constantly keep the ir.--
stock industry in 3 state of turmoil. There are countless mi'W •'?
cattle on the hoof on the ranges and empty meat counters in buuh*v
•hops and consumers should be fully aware of the effect of gnverrvd
ment regulations as a factor in this situation so graphically illu» /
trated _ab_oy°.
CHANGES IN
GASOLINE RULES
Beginning April 1, the 5-gaJlon
“R” gasoline coupon for non-
highway users will be good for
purchases at “authorized filling
stations,” as well as for gasoline
at hulk plants or delivered to pri-
vate storage tanks, OP A anounces.
The “A” ration for mot. ris’s is
now two gallons weekly in all
parts of the counti'y.
GROW MORE GREENS IN ’44
LONGER PERIODS
FOR FOOD STAMPS
Home gai’deners should plau .to
grok more fi-esh greens over a long
(season and can less, food special-
ists suggest. The housewife who
puts up a big batch of greens in
the spi’ing for year-round use when
she could have fresh greens from
the garden makes herself extra
wox-k and serves less appetizing
food.
IWlhile it is possible that by fall
there xvill be sufficient rifle and
shotgun ammunition for game
shooting, the WPB said that for
the time being none can be spared
from suppies needed by farmers to
protect crops and livestock. No
ammunition wil be available -for
amusement purposes.
Under the ration token plan, 3
red (meats-fats) 19-point stamps
become good every two weeks, on
Sundays, and five blue (processed
fruits-vegetables) 10-point stamps
become good on the first of each
month. To reduce last minute rush
buying just before stamps run out,
the OPA inci*eased the pei’iod for
which stamps may be used. Thus,
the 60 i-ed points and 50 blue
points which become good each
month may be used at any time
dui’ing a period of from 10 to 12
weeks.
CAR PLATES MAY
BE PLACED ON CAR
DURING THIS MONTH
All oar owners should secui’e ear
license plates as quickly as pos-
sible hi order to avoid the final
rush of buying.
All cars must be provided with
the 1944 plates on or before Apr.
1. New! plates may be attached to
the vehicles as soon as purchased.
Seems like it always works out
this way: watch the face of the
clock and. you’ll never be more
than one of the hands.
According to information re-
ceived from County Agent W. K.
Cottingame, the U. S. Department
of Agriculture is asking for an in-
crease in milk production for 1944.
Texas pi’oportion of total pro-
duction is 4,659,000 pounds of
milk or an average production of
3,233 pounds per cow from 1,441,-
000 cows. To obtain this goal an
8 point program has been worked
out as sliown below.
1. Grow more hay, legume if
possible, pasture, silage and grain.
2. Fertilize, where fertilizers are
adapted to increase quantity and
quality of feed (barnyard manure
is adapted anywhere in Texas.)
3. Feed to avoid summer milk
slump.
4. Feed! cows liberally during
their dry period.
5. Keep as many, and only as
many, cows as feed and labor per-
mit.
6. Market whole mlk whenever
1 7 Produce good quality milk and
avoid waste.
8. Bred for better herd replace-
ments.
This is a sound dairy program.
Bv culling out in-efficient and un-
profitable cow's and making every
pound of feed and every hit of
labor count to the best advantage
in getting increased production
from efficiently producing cows
through this program, Texas dai-
rymen will be helping themselves
and helping the nation to get the
milk it needs ;so badly.
