SHOTGUN SHELLS
GO TO HUNTERS
Washington.—Forty million
surplus shotgun shells are on
their way to the nation’s hunt-
ers. The commerce depart-
ment has released the 12-gauge
shotgun shells for sale to civil-
ians thru regional surplus
property boards.
They went on sale to deal-
ers Friday and soon will be
available to hunters as well as
farmers and rancher: for crop
and livestock protection.
The 40,000,000 shells, pre-
viously frozen for military use,
represent the biggest windfall
for hunters since sale of shot-
gun shells were drastically re-
stricted when war began.'
The shells are the standard
commercial type used by hunt-
ers, including regional sujplus
property .offices at Boston, New
York, Philadelphia, Cincinnati,
Chicago, Atlanta, Fort Worth,
Kansas City, Denver, San
Francisco and Seattle.
The OPA retail ceiling price
on birdshot is |1.07 for a bog
of 26 or 842.80 a thousand
shells. For buckshot, the ceil-
ing is 21.38 a box of 26 or
S65.20 a thousand shells.
Germans May Be Fed
Bat Keeping Warm
Is Their Problem
Berlin, Oct. IS. (UP)—Ger-
mans in the American-occupied
i zone may be fed additional ra-
1 tiona by the U. S. Army this
'winter if an emergency devel-
ops, but the problem of keep-
ing warm is strictly their own,
Lt. Gen. Lucius D. Clay, deputy
to Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower,
said last night
Commenting on reports
abroad that "tens of thou-
sands’’ of Germans may starve
or freeze this winter. Clay said
additional food may be brought
in by Americans if periodic nu-
tritional checks indicate an
emergency.
But he added, the Germans
“have coats and blankets,
which is more than a lot of
people in other eonntries have
had in the past three winters,”

Shelby - Panola
Soil Conservation
District Notes
Postwar Planning
Many farmers in the Shelby-
Panola Soil Conservation Dis-
trict who have spent the past
few years doing their bit to
bring victory as soon as possi-
ble, are now back home on
their farms ready to start
fanning.
Many of !hese men retuns-
ing to the farm realize that in
order to be able to receive a
good yearly income they must
improve the productiveness of
the soil and prevent it from
washing away. Technicians of
the Soil Conservation Service
in Center have been busy the
past week assisting a few of
these men in planning a com- \ workers requesting
plete soil and water conserve
tion program on their farms. H.
B. White, of the Aiken conser-
vation group, made formal ap-
plication to the district super-
kept clean of trees and bushes,
and it is Mr. Childs intention
to disc this pasture, area to
level the old beds and improve
the growth of Bermuda and
common lespe'deza present. As
soon as this land has been
brushed and disced, it will
then be kept mowed to control
weeds and bushes that would
normally prevent the growth
of pasture grasses. A 3 acre
Sericea Lespedeza meadow
will also be planted on part of
the land recommended to be
retired from cultivation. Thus
Mr. Childs will have "selective
service for each acre" of his
land, that Is, each acre will be
put to its best use and treated
in such a way as to maintain
the productiveness of the soil
for future generations.
Other returning defense
assistance
from the Shelby-Panola Soil
Conservation District, are D.
L. “Dodd” Hayes, who has a
22 acre farm in the Timpson
conservation group, and Sam
visors of the Shelby-Panola Soil i Taylor, 127 acres in the Oak

Conservation District. This ap-
plication for assistance in plan-
ning a complete program in
Mr, White’s 330 acre farm was
approved at the last meeting of
the district supervisors and was
turned over to the Soil Conser-
vation Service so that Mr.
White might be given assist-
ance and technical supervision
in developing and carrying out
a conservation program on his
farm.
J. W. Childs application on
his 88 acre farm in the Hansen
Switch conservation group, was
also approved at this monthly
meeting of the district super-
visors. Last week. Boy Wool-
ley and A. M. Hataway, Soil
Conservation Service em-
ployees, Center work unit,
walked over the farm with Mr.
Childa and worked out a “se-
lective service for every acre”
plan. Approximately 16 acres
of Mr. Childs best land was
planned for cultivation for
which a complete system of
terraces, water disposal, and
winter legume cover crops
were planned. A narrow band,
approximately 10 acres, of
steep land between the upland
and branch bottom, will be left
in pine timber and selectively
harvested and properly man-
aged, according to the conser-
vation plan worked out oy Mr.
Childs and the Soil Conserva-
tion Service technicians.
It was agreed that improved
pasture and improved wood
land could not be developed on
the same land, so the remain-
ing 42 acres of land will be
Grove conservation group. Oth-
er farmers in organized con-
servation - groups may receive
assistance in planning a com-
plete conservation program by
making formal application to
the Shelby-Panola Soil Conser-
vation District Board of Super-
vision;. These application
blanks may be secured from
district supervisors Bon T.

culture teachers, and the Soil

College Station.—Electrical
appliances for malting home
work easier soon will be on the
market; and farm women will
be buying new cleaners, mix-
era, irons and other appliances
which they have had to do
without during the war. Elec-
trical appliances, if used in the
correct manner, can save a
great deal of energy and time,
says Mrs. Bernice Claytor,
home improvement specialist
for the A. and M. College Ex-
tension Service. All too often,
however, the housewife starts
out using her appliances with-
out checking to see If her meth-
ods are best for time and labor
saving.
When the homemaker buys
a new appliance, it will save
her time and work in the long
run if she studies out first the
best way of doiag the job. Just
as an example, here are a few
pointers in cleaning a room
with a vacuum cleaner. First
the housewife should see that
there is enough light and ven-
tilation in the room for a good
and comfortable job. After ahe
decides on the best method of
doing the job, she must elimi-
nate any part of the task she
can or ccmbine steps in the
cleaning.
“If you can use one attach-
ment for several jobs,” says
Mrs. Claytor, “you may be able
to do all those steps before the
attachment is changed. Keep
everything within easy reach
so that when you need to
change attachments you can do
it quickly. Attachments have
a specific job. Be sure you are
using the right one for the job
you are doing.”
Proper method of using any
electrical appliance will save
money, too Mrs. Claytor con-
tinues, because the appliance
will lest longer and need few-
er repairs.
