Fertilizers Available
For 19,43 Crops
Fertiliters will ' be available for
all 1943 crops, T. E. MiHirrian,
chief of the Agricultural Chemic

tons declared in a General Elect ric
Farm Forum address here.
Mr. Milliman,, who is: also presir
dent of the GLF soil building
service and a breeder, of Guern
sey cattle in Monroe county,: fit.
Y., said that any restrictions will
apply in minor degree and to the
less important crops.
"Every fertilizer dealer will be
prepared to implement the war ef
fort by intelligently working with
the farmer and the fertilizer man
ufacturer," he pointe'd out. "Local
fertilizer customs and the pattern
of historic use will be largely pre
served. "In fact, the farmer is to be less
disturbed in his fertilizer supply
than in many other direction."
Mr. Milliman said that the Fer
tilizer Indus.try Advisory Commit
tee and another committee of farm
co-operative, meeting in Washing
ton recently, are of the . opinion
that fertilizer rationing is unnec
essary. They have recommended .to
the government accordingly, the
speaker added.
State College Hints
For Farm Homemakers
By RUTH CURRENT
Food takes the largest share of
most incomes. The lower the ii
come,. the larger the share must
be for food. If part of the food
is raised at home, the food bill
may be reduced greatly. Here are
some suggestions for stretching the
food money. .
Buy the least expensive foods
that will give your family the
best nutrition.
Produce as much of your food
supply as is practicable (vegeta
bles, eggs, milk, fruits end meats).
Can and store foods raised or
bought when prices are low.
Buy for current needs; do rxrt
hoard.
Teach your family to eat all
available foods food dislikes are
not patriotic.
Stop food wastes. Learn to cook
vegetables to avoid Joss of min
erals and vitamins.
Buy whole grain breads, flours,
and cereals, or enriched white
flour and bread.
Prepare foods at home when
ever possible; they are cheaper
than ready-to-serve foods such as
breads, cereals, desserts and soups.
Expect fewer sizes of canned
goods more bulk goods.
Give your family nourishing
packed lunches; they cost less
than meals in a restaurant.
Spend as much for milk as for
meat, and as much for fruits
and vegetables as for meat.
Plan meals carefully ahead
time.

A Message From
Frank Jeter
Dear Editor:
State College Station
Raleigh, N. C.
December 17, 1942
Somehow, I dpn't feel as blue
about this war business as I did
one. year ago. Not that I .am un
mindful of the great task before
us and of the dreadful costs in
lives and money that it will take
before we are out of danger. But
we have made a start, and that's
something. During the year, as
usual, wfe, in this office, have tried
to act as your reporter on the
Farm Front, bringing to you as
briefly as possible the news, the
information and the interpretation
of trends and regulations of con
cern to farmers and their families.
Perhaps we have not succeeded
very well in interpreting rules and
regulations and trends. In fact, I
don't begin to understand them all ;
but, we have done the best we
could and I want again to thank
you for -the fine way in which
you have received our farm news
and. the excellent reports which
you have given to your rural
readers.
Whether we shall be able to con
tinue to give you the same type
of service next year as we have
in 1942 depends on how well we
can hold our organization together
in the face of war demands. You
may be sure, however, that we
shall continue to serve you as
best we can. We feel, as you do,
that good farming and the effi
cient production of food is a fun
damental thing in winning this war
and we know that if we do not
produce the food for our soldiers
and for our ovm families, no one
else will produce it.
And so again, I want to thank
f .
year, I am
Sincerely,
FRANK JETER. Editor
