Production goals for food vitally
needed^in the war effort have
been revised upward in Crosby
county for families on small farms
and ranches who heretofore have
been limitsd by lack of livestock,
machinery, and other productive
facilities.
Roy J. Terrell; Chairman of the
U. S. Department 1 of Agriculture
War JBoard in Crosby county, said
that productive'^efficiency of these
small farmers and stockmen is be-
ing inwaaeed- by means of Farrr. i
Security Administration loan?.
This is one of the avenues of at-
tack on the food problem, being
developed in cgoperation with thi?
Courtty^ US DA--War Board. ,
. ''Many of the better-equipped,
commercial farmers have been
producing relatively efficiently,"
Mr. Terrell explained, "but ,a vast
supply of unused, or poorjy used,
productive capapjty exists on ma-
ny small farms.
"^oans are being made by..;, the
Farm Security Administratis for
food( seed' fertilizer, cows, hogs,
baby chicks, housing and equip-
ment to take care of livestock,
and facilities to increase crop pro-
duction," he said. "Farm laborers,
tenants, small owner-operators,
and families making only part of
their living from the land may-
get these loans."
''Productive goals for these
farms are set higher than general
goals for the county because they
have farther to go toward rela-
tively efficient production. Indi-
vidual goals for each producer will
be set as FSA" loans are made,"
Mr. Terrell said. He urged low-in-
come farm tenants, sharecroppers,
pmajl owner-operators and part-
time formers tg take their pro-
blems to Walter E. O'Neal. Rural
Supervisor for FSA in Crosby'Co.,
after February 9, the date the
new loan program gets under way.
'ih'e FSA office is located in the
court house at CrosbyRSfiT'""'
Here are-some of the new goals
which have been announced for
small farmers in Crosby county.
Every family should have at le&st
two cows, one of which freshens
in the-aprtng and the other 4n the
fall; 20 percent "increase -in pro-
duction of hogs for slaughter; 15
percent increase In marketing of
beef cattle^ -raise enough pullets
for each family to carry over at
least five hens per family member;
a planned, year-round garden for
every FSA family.which will pro-
vide potatoes plus at least two
vegetables daily; 25 percent in-
"ctease Jh production and utillza-
'tluh qf pastures; and IB-percent

Crop production, vitally impor-
tant this war year, is being finan-
ced by the Emergency Crop Loan
Section of the Farm Credit Ad-'
ministration through loans to far-
mers in need of credit assistance.
These loans, usually known as
"seed loans", are the oldest form
of Federal &Td to-fawnem in pro-
ducing crops, having been-success-
fully administered-by this pioneer
agericy for many years.
In addition to cash crops", this
bureau has always i^rged its bor-
rowers to follow a balanced pro-
gram with ample acreage of feed
and food crops. Planting a hom3
garden has been a prime require-
ment in secwing a loan but this
year the growing- of a bigger and
better home garden is being em-
phasized more than ever before,
according to W. E. Farwell, Re-
gional M^nagei^ of the Dallas Em-
ergency Crop Loan Office, which
administers these loans in Texas.
•'Not only Is this verbally im-
pressed by our Field Supervisors
and afpplication vyritar but every
Check disbursed to1* a borrower is
accompanied by a message on this
subject printed on orange paper
which cannot be overlooked," says
a recent statement from Manager
Farwell. "Food for Victory-is far
more than a slogan. Within ano-
ther year no one in America will
need to be convinced of this.'With
our organization it is receiving
top consideration now during . the
planting period," the statement
concludes. *
D. H. Sandidge, who supervises
these loans in CSrQsby county,
states that applications for "sfteti
loans"' and also for loans to pur-
chase feed oV produce feed for
livestock, are being made at Cros-
byton by C rl Ingram, Advance

I have enjoyed my tenure of

sition which I have ever held. I
realize that I have more friends in
Crosby'county than in any other
place in the world, and my deci-
sion has been made with a great
deal of deliberation. I shall strive

were days in which clouds hoversd^

' •HEhe rain was of benefit because
the top of the ground was dry

to pulVefize it. There is plenty of
