We aast and shall do ITu’
job reEmrdiess of all obgtacle^
each of us can follow one oi
more of these suggestions.
Meat—Hoya
1. Feed at least twice a« many
hogs as needed for home con_
sumption uid sell surplus.
.2. Keep one or more brood
sows and breed twice each
year.
3. Hog feed hasa advanced 18
per cent since January 1942
the price of pork 25 per cent
Feeder pigs can be bought and
raised at a profit. A single ae’i
feeder saves labor. A mineta’
mixture of 10 lbs. ground lime,
stone, 2 lbs. salt and 5 Ib.^.
steamed bone meal should be
kept before them at all times
green crops for grazing greatly
reduce feed cost.
Beef Cattle
1. The farmers Mutual Ex_
change will loan to approve'!
keepers several purebred beef
bulls. If your community doe.-^
not have one, investigate thif
plan.
grow veal calves to wei^h ?fl(
to 389 pounds and discontinue
sale of good heifers.
Broilers
1. Utilize tobacco barns
brick brooders or lamp brood
era as wartime measures to pro
duce 2 1—2 to 3 Ib.-broiler.s. Re
member the Pre-Flight boy.'

Our slogan; "A ton of meal
from every farm (Tobacco far.
i%ers included) 44 cattle o*, '■
hogs or 800 broile»-! will pro.
ducfe a ton of meat.'
Milk—Dalrj' Cows
1. PrpcUi^e more by, dig n
pennane?ft pastures, feei
one pound concentrates tp ev.
try 3 pounds of nillk.
^2. While beef prices are high
cull out low producers and re.
place with heavy milkers.
3. A high producing bull
costa little more than a scrul.
—use the best.
4. Do not sell heifers for vea)
raise them out, and add a_,few
more gallons to your milk
route. The price of milk is up
16 per cent above last year,
while the price of feed has ad-
vaned only 12 1_2 per cent.
6. A serious shortage of . milk
and dairy products has deve).
oped. Let’s all help increase
production.
Feed— Crops and Pasiure
1. Success in livestock de
pends on growing an ample
supply of feed and pasture.
2. If you are short on small
^rain this year, make it up in
com.
3. G ra z i n g crops are
the moat economical. Plant
temporary pastui^ for sup
plemental grazing. An electric
^ence with a small supply of
^re can be moved aroaiidl
2. PeraumeBt pastures are
•necessary. Ck>od ones must be
supplied wnth phosphate and
lime. A simple wartime mixi
ture for one acre is:
5 lbs. Orchard grass. 8 lbs.
Hedds grass. 1 lb, Whitt clover.
4 lbs. Blue grass. 10 lbs. Lespe-
d«za. 3 lbs. Bye grass.
Egga—Utm»
1. Due to war there is a
■burtage of §ome ingredients in'
•11 poultrj" fitted. It is essential
to aupplement this food with
'kome jTown green feed. Make

Every week we are sending shiploads of canned
goods to feed our fighting men and our fitting
allies in Africa, Britain, and the Pacific islands.
We most see ^at they get all the food they need.
We at home will ahare all that is left Point
Rationing will be used to guarantee you and every*
one a fair dhare of Ameriofi’s supply of caxmed and
prooeased fruits and vegetables, soups and juices.
1. The Government has set the day when this ra
tioning will start. On or after that day, take
your War Ration Book Two with you wfam you
go to bujr any^ kind of these prooMsed foods.

2. Before you buy, find out how many pointa to
give for the k^d of processed foods you want.
Prices elo not $et the poinu. The Government
will set different points for each kind and use
no matter what the price. Your grocer will put
up ^e official list of points where you c«i see
it It .will also be in the newspapers. The
points will not change put hecaute the jnicea do.
3. When lyott bay, take the right
amount of blue stamps out of
the In^k. Do thi« in front of
your grocer or delivei^ man
and Lwd them to him. The
grocer mu4t collect a ration
stamp, or stamps, for all the
rationed processedn foods he
sells. Every rstionen processed
' food will take points as well as money.
4. Do not use more stamps than you need to make
^ up the right amount. For example, if the food
fou buy calls for 13 points it is better to tear
out an 8*point and a 5-point stamp than two 5*
point stamps and a 2- and a ^
1-powt ^^^p. Save your 0^]
smaBor-point stamps foir low-

This means that yon may use

of the blue A, B, and Citamps m you ^vuh »lpnc
time. Whm they are used up you vill not be
able to buy any more of these processed foods till
the next stamps mre good. The Government will
announce th« datewneu the next rtamps are good.
6. Use your household’s points carefully v> that you
wiH not run out of stamps. And boy with care
to make your pointa «ome out even, because the
grocer will not be able to give you change in
stamps. Use high-point MampafiMt, if you can.
