Many letters to seamen are be-
ing improperly addressed, often in
violation of national security rules
the War Shipping Administration
reports. The address of the steam-
ship company, a specific street ad-
dress, or a place name of a foreign (
country should not be given. The
proper form to be used is:
Seaman’s Name; Name of Ship;
Care of Postmaster San Francisco,
New York, or New Orleans, (de-
pending on coast from which ad-
dressee sailed.) The return address
of the writer should appear in the
upper left hand corner with the
name of the Steamshop Company
in the lower left corner.
The “open kettle” method and
the “oven” method of home can-
ning cannot be dependeed on to
kill bacteria in food, say canning
specialists in the Department of
Agriculture, and in addition oven
canning has caused serious acci-
dents when jars explode. The. spec-
ialists recommend that fruits, to-
matoes, and pickled vegetables be
precooked amd packed boiling hot
in hot jars, with lide adjusted cor-
rectly, then processed in a boiling
water bath canner with sufficient
Avater to cover the jars. Peas;
beans and other non-acid veget-
ables should be packed in the same
Avay, hut processed in a steam
pressure canner. Some of the 400,-
000 new steam pressure canners j
authorized by WPB for the can- j
ning season are noAv available in |
certain areas of the South and )
others should be available through
out tlhe country before long. Many
community food preservation cen-
tere provide local home canners
with equipment and supervised in-
structions on proper canning.
In a single air action in North
Africa, Army Air Forces pilots
fired 25,000 rounds of caliber .50
ammunition without a single mal-
functioning attributable either to
'the Army Ordnance gun or the
Army Ordnance ammunition.
The nation’s farm army of six
million along Avith their town and
city neighbors went into action
this Aveek on the Fifth War Loan,
the War Finance Division of the
Treasury announces. Total goal
for this loan is 16 billion dollars
by July 8.
Last year farm people bought
$1,200,000,000 in War Bonds— a-
bout ten. per cent of their net in-
come. With an estimated net farm
income of 13 billion dollars for
1944, bond purchases by farm peo-
ple are expected to be higher this
year than last. The War Bonds
bought during the Fifth War Loan
Avill enable our government to get
more and better Avar equipment
for its fighters than the bonds
bought a year ago, according to a
compilation of war equipment
costs by the War Department. A
heavy bomber, which a year ago
cost $500,000, today cost® half
that much. A Bbfors anti-aircraft
gun formerly cost $25,000, now
costs only $13,000. A year ago the
Garand rifle cost $80. Today it
costs $35. A feAV items, among
them the good old army mule, have
gone up in price. A year ago Uncle
Sam paid $190 for an army mule.
Today such a nine costs Uncle Sam
$225. _

“GOING TO TOWN”
IN 5TH BOND DRIVE
That rural sections of the Uni-
ed States are “Going to Town” in
the Fifth War Loan Drive is sug-
gested (by scattered early reports
received by the Agriculture Sec-
tion, War Finance Division, Treas-
ury Dqpartment. In Carroll Coun-
ty, Ga., agriculture’s $100,000
share of the county quota Avas ov-
er sold by $80,000 on June 6, six
days before the drive opened. In
Alabama, Avhere county farm quo-
tas are broken down into ‘Beats,’
roughly equivalent to toAvnships in
other states, several beats had sur-
passed their quotas. Gregory coun-
ty, South Dakota, reached its goal
two days before tbe drive official-
ly opened. More than 20,000 farm
machinery dealers n the U. S. have
been enlisted as workers in the

Why we’re buying
wae mmmm
-----
In addition to seeing that train movements
essential to Victory come first—
Santa Fe e?)iployes in pay roll deductions alone
are buying well over $1,000,000 of War Bonds
every month!
We know there is no better way for us to
back up those who have the toughest job of
all in this dirty war—those millions of men
and women in our fighting forces. 10,000 of
them are former Santa Fe employes.
By buying War Bonds and keeping “Loaded
for War” trains rolling, we know we are help-
ing to bring our victorious forces home ^JtJ
quicker—and providing ourselves with sav-
ings for the days of peace to come.
No matter where you work let’s all dig a
little deeper and buy more War Bonds now:

CARE WILL SAVE
YOUR REFRIGERATOR
Here are some hints that will keep your electric refriger®»
tor on the job and prolong its life. As you know, a®
more refrigerators are being made. Keeping yours at&
the job is one of your wartime duties as a homemakcri
FOLLOW THIS “ONCE-A-WEEK” CHECK LISi
1 Defrost whenever frost on the freezing compartment is more tha*
l/4 inch thick. Defrost regularly—once a week is recommended.
® When you defrost, clean interior with solution of warm water
and baking soda (teaspoon of soda to three quarts of water).
q Clean exterior with warm soapy water, no scouring powder.
” Wax exterior occasionally to preserve non-porcelain finish.

^ piece of paper. If paper comes out with little resistance, the
door does not quite fit correctly. Consult a service man.
C The gasket on the inside of the door should be touched as little

Or Will Your War Bonds Make It Come True?
PLAN AHEAD NOW. Now’s the time —when you’re hav-
ing to get along with all kinds of old equipment—to
be making practical plans for your future. That’s what
thousands of foresighted people, on farms all over
the country, are doing. They’re saving their money
against the day when a full line of new replacements
will be available again. And the wise ones are saving
it in War Bonds.
BACK YOUR PLANS WITH WAR BONDS. War Bonds are the
best and safest way to invest your money against your
future needs. The money you lend to the Government
now, for war uses, will come back to you—$4 for every
$3 you put in—at maturity. And it’s such an easy way
to save! Large or small denomination Bonds—which-
ever you want—can be bought at your bank or post
office or Production Credit Association. Your rural
mail carrier will get them for you—or you can buy by
mail yourself when it’s hard to get to town.
IT’S YOUR DUTY TO THE BOYS. Those youngsters—your
boy and your neighbors’ boys—are fighting to pre-
serve our American way of living for us. And when it’s
over it’ll be our job to help build a better peace for
them. Don’t let them come back to run-down farms,
with wornout equipment, and no means with which
to do anything about it. That’s where War Bonds
come in. The money you put into them will help to-
establish the farm on a prosperous peacetime basis.
'a
YOU NEVER GET LESS THAN YOU LEND! And
you can get ks more than you invest. When
held 10 years, Series E War Bonds yield
2.9% interest compounded semi-annually.
You get back $4 for every $3.
Of course, no one should cash a Bond
unless he has to; but if an emergency comes
along, Uncle Sam will redeem them in cash—
at full purchase price—any time after you’ve
held them 60 days. BUY WAR BONDS!

$18.75 $25.00
37.50 50.00
