screen cloth yand other kitchen and
household articles as a result of a
recent WPB directive, which re-
served a partion of the production

Produce more Avheat bat not at
the expense of sound farming was
the message sent to Texas’ 40,000
Avheat'farmers this Aveek by B. F.
Vance, administrative officer of
the AAA of Texas.
Citing years of conservation
Avork in Avhich farmers have re-
built their soils, he said they could
easily meet next year’s 5-million
acre goal Avhile continuing sound
soil management.
“Through wise land use we can
get a big Avheat crop next year
and be all set to come back Avith
another big crop the folIoAving
year,” he said.
He explained that although in-
creased Avheat acreage is being
called for, special importance
should be given to other Avar crops
such as flax, dry beans and peas,
potatoes and feed crops in areas
Avhere these crops are adapted:
Explaining Avhy increases in
Avheat are needed for 1944, Vance
said that during the last 12 months
about one-third of lasit year’s crop
had been fed to livestock, that the
use of Avheat for synthetic rubber
and explosives has increased to
150-million bushels per year, and
that additional millions of bushels
of Avheat will be needed co feed
Europe in the future.
Under the 1944 program, the
national wheat acreage has been
increased to 68-million acres com-
pared to 54-million acres planted
this year. Texas farmers planted
3,416,674 'acres for harvest during
1943.

SCALE OF AGRICULTURAL
PAYMENT RATES
A revised scale for payments to
farmers under the 1943 Agricul-
tral Conservation Program has
ben set up by WPA to adjust a-
vailable funds to the increased
number of eligible farmers. The
revised rates (Avith ithe former
rates in parentheses) are: cotton,
one cent per pound (1.1 cents);
corn, 3 .cents per bushel (3.6 cts);
and Avheat, 8.5 cents per bushel
(9.2 cts). Rates remain unchanged
for rice and tobacco.
sent betAveen Sept. 15 and Nov. 1.
This period has been designated by
the Navy Department in coopera-
tion Avith the Posit Office Depart-
ment. Parcels must not exceed five
pounds in Aveight.
Legal aid, ranging from draAving
wills to solving problems of insur-
ance, is being provided to soldiers.
At each of the legal assitance of-
fices, commissioned officers, who
are licensed attorneys, are on duty.
WASTE FATS COLLECTED
Waste kitchen fats collected
throughout the country totaled
8,440,274 pounds during the month
of June, setting an all time high
mark since the inauguration of
this program in July 1942, WPB
has reported. The total collected
is still not sufficient to meet Avar
demands. WPB Region 1, compris-
ing the NeAv England states rank-
ed- first in pounds collected per oc-
supied dAvelling.
CARS TO KEEP RUNNING
America’s 30,000,000 motorists
have been assured iby WPB that
sufficient neAv and reconditioned
parts Avill be available to keep the
nation’s essential cars rolling
through 1944. Even the country’s
5,000,000 vehicles, ten years old or
more, will be kept on the road by
necessary replacement parts.
Social Security account cards are
not supposed to be used for iden-
tification purposes. By accepting
them as such has proved costly to
a good many merchants, hotels,
business men and bankers. They
are for the purpose of identifying
the old-age insurance account of
the owner of the card Avith the So-
cial Security Board.
Old-Age and Survivors Insur-
ance is not based on the amount
of taxes paid by the Avorker and
his employer. Benefits are figured
entirely on the amount of Avages
credited to the wage earner’s so-
cial security account.
SAVE ALL FATS
With millions of pounds of
A\7a,ste fats still needed to meet Avar
damands, Paul C. Cabot, director
of WPB Salvage Division, recent-
ly urged houseAvives to remember
that even accumulated fats become
rancid, they still retain a majority
of the valuable glycerine that goes
into Avar production. Some house-
Avives, believing that rancid fats
are valueless, have not 'been turn-
ing them in for salvage. This has
resulted in the loss of thousands of
pounds of glycerine that could
have been processed fro these fats.
ADDRESS OVERSEAS
MAIL PROPERLY
Because more than 10 per cent
of the mail for overseas is incor-
rectly or insufficiently addressed,
the War Department has asked
that the sender be sure to give
the soldier’s rank, name, army
serial number, organization and ar-
my post office number.
FolIoAving is a model address:
Pvt. John Doe, ASN 1234567890
Battery B, 227th Field Artillery
Battalion
APO 29, care The Postmaster,
New York, N. Y.
The War Department also asked
that families and friends of sol-
diers send clippings instead of
periodicals whenever possible to
save cargo space.
Christmas packages may be
mailed to American soldiers over-
seas without t request from the
soldier, from Sept. 15 to Oct. 15.
The package must be no more than
five pounds in weight, fifteen in-
ches i nlengtih, and thirty-six ins.
in length and girth combined. It
should be marked “Christmas gift
parcel.” Only one such package
will be accepted fo rmailing by or
on behalf of the same person or
concern to or for the same addres-
see during any one week.
STANDING ROOM ONLY
ON PASSENGER TRAINS
SOME BOOTS ARE
RATION FREE
Certain kinds of rubber boots
useful in farming and similar work
but no longer being manufactured
for general use have been released
from rationing by a recent OPA
amendment. All olive drab, elav,
o khaki colored rubber hoots, all
OA7er-the-shoe rubber hoots and all
boots which depend upon stretch
at the ankle for fitting are includ-
ed in the order. HoAvever, quanti-
ties will be small because dealers
do not have complete stocks on
hand.
SMALL ENGINES
TO FARMERS
Distribution o fabout 37,000 air
and liquid-cooled internal combus-
tion engines of 30-horsepoAA7er and
under Avill be controlled by county
farm rationing committees. Pref-
erence rating certificates will be
issued to farmers or operators of
farm machinery for hire, based, on
the need for 'the engine in essential
production of crops, livestock and
livestock products, poultry and
eggs ,and bees. When the farmer
receives such a preference rating
certificate, he can take it to his
local dealer and buy the engine.
ARMY SALVAGES FATS
It is estimated that enough
AVaste fats are salvaged in army
camps within the continental U.
S. to make 1,500,000 pounds of
dynamite each month and still
leave a residue of rendered grease
fi'om Avhich 5,000,000 pounds of
soa.p stock may be made.
ORDER FUEL NOW
With War Price and Rationing
Boards rapidly completing the
task of reneAving consumers’ heat-
ing oil rations OPA is urging the
householders to place orders im-
mediately to give both consumers
and dealers plenty of time during
Avarm Aveather to get a supply of
heating oil and other fuels in home
storage.
MORE NURSES NEEDED
Many American hospitals can-
not maintain normal standards of
service today because of the lack
of nurses, according to reports
made to the U. !S. Public Health
Service of the Federal Security
Agency. A year from uoav America
Avijl need 359,000 nurses—or 100,-
000 more than are noAv available.
Of this number 66,000 will be
needed for military service and
293,000 for civilians. Because of
limted facilities, the maximum
that can be trained within this
period is 65,000.
If yon haven't gotten arouni
j to buying a Second War Loan
jpiBond, stop and think what it
would mean to you if our sol-
diers hadn’t gotten round to
the fight.
WHEAT GOALS FOR 1944
State wheat acreage goals for
1944, representing an apportion-
ment of the national goa] of 64
million acres—26 per cent above
this year’s seedings—Avere an-
nounced recently by the War Food
Administration. County goals will
be established on the basis of these
state figures and will constitute
the wheat goals farmers will be
urged to meet in 1944 In broad
terms, the |WFA advises farmers
to plant as much Avheat as possible
Avithout departing \from sound
farming practices and after re-
serving sufficient land for expand-
ing other urgently needed crops.
Ninety-six cents out of
every dollar goes for War
expenditures.
The other four
cents goes for
G o v e r n m ent
expenses “as
For Freedom’s Sake usual.”
