i FSA FARM NEWS W. M. Pierce of Speedwell is mighty well pleased with his re | forestation project. Last year Mr. : fierce obtained 5000 pine seed lings through the assistance of the County Agent, and set them on the ; farm ? he purchase^ through the Farm Security Administration. The seedlings were set on land that was unfit for farming purposes and it is expected that within a lew years erosion will be prac tically stopped.

"V /*.? ?J!*iVV-v Farmers Have Less to Worry Them This Time Washington, D. C. ? Farm pricei stand at 206 per cent of the 1909-1914 average ? higher than the prices ol 1918? and will drop again but not ai sharply as in 1921 because the Gov eminent Is required by law to main tain support prices of at least 90 pel cent of parity for two full calendai years following the year In which th? war ends, The Department of Agri culture has announced. The announcement Indicates th? farmer will not be a victim of a droj in prices similar to that which fol lowed the last war in 1921 when prices hit the low of 115 per cent ol the May, 1920, level which was 233 per cent of the 1909-1914 level. Thus the farmer will have more monej than after the last war. War Finance Committee official? said that in addition to the main* tenance of the price level for two years, that non-farm families already have, and are accumulating, weekly savings through the Payroll Savings Plan of the War' Finance Division of the Treasury. This, they claim is proof the non-farm front will be much better able to support itself than after the last war during the normal lull of reconversion. Buyers of farm prod ucts will have the money to buy, it was said, and farmers should avail themselves of the opportunity to ac quire War Bonds during the Victory Loan so as to have the money with which to modernize and handle the non-farm market demands that will be backed with cash to pay sustained prices during the two years after fighting ceases. The Payroll Savings Plan has sold $18,000,000,000 in War Bonds to wage earners, that great bulk of non-fa rm ers,. who will, if need be, enjoy the frtiits of their savings in the recon version period and have the cash with which to support themselves. Secretary of Agriculture Clinton P. Anderson adds that "prosperity of the farm depends primarily on purchas ing power in the city." Seaman Conley Serving With Navy Repair Unit GUAM ?

Dying Man" First, to all my Friends: I had hoped through all the long months and dark wearisome nights of suffering, that I would regain my health and be able to meet you face to face and warn every one of you who is a Christ. an to live closer to Jesus and work more earnestly for Him. for these aw ful days of sin and sorrow through which we are passing demands the best that is in us. You can no, a; ford to waste your precious time seeking after the pleasures of this world. 1 wanted to live so bad to tell the poor dying sinners of their coming doom and beg them to re pent and be bom again, which would to them mean Eternal Life; for on the crumbling edge of pre diction they stand, a slippery patn for their feet. Ah! soon you will be with the numberless dead mak ing torment and sorrow complete. Second, to my own dear Wife and Children; and also to all my kindred: I have not lived as close to Jesus as I ought to have lived all the journey through. I see now I should have maintained the Family Altar, gathering the family around the old hearth-stone for our even ing prayer, talking of the Golden promises of God and the sweet yonder land. But those oppor- j tunities are forever gone and I can never rccall them, but I can , take this, the last and only oppor- i tunity I will ever have in this world. To thank all of my many good frtej'ids who have been so kind and considerate through all these weeks of suffering, "God Bless you all". And you, my aged father and mother, brother and sis ters, none 61 whom are s6 Sttong ' and soon you will be following on;so give your whole lives to Jesus and be to duty true; He will never^for sake you tho sorrow press you sore; He will lead you to that City where we shall meet once more, and I'll be standing by the bright river side to greet you through the Uncluded Day.

PULPWOOD CHAIRMAN LAUDS FARMERS AND WOOD WORKERS , ? s , ? , % ? hi ? % The nation's achievements 4? war production ? announced re cently by WPB Chairman J. A. Krug ? serve to emphasize "the unselfish patriotism of our farm ers and wood workers in meeting America's pulpwood requirements during the war", the chairman Victory Pulpwood said- this week, stressing that now. in the words of Mr. Krug, "industrial mobiliza tion must be kept alive and cur rent." Among the total munitions and war equipment production figures released by Mr. Krug were these: More than 26,000,000 pairs of com bat boots, 55, 273,000 trousers, 15.273,000 pairs of socks, 43,270, 000 wool blankets, 1,412.506,000 xulfu-diazine tablets, 11,835,000 ampules of penicillin and 17,400, 000 rifles. In commenting on these figures, the Committee declared: "It is important to remember that every pair of boots, every rifle, every package of sulfa-diazine, as well as other items ilsted and the hun dreds of htousands of items not listed, all required paper, paper board ox- other pulpwood products to wrap, package or tag these items. "Moreover," the Committee pointed out, "vast quantities of addiitonal pulpwood actually went into the manufacture of hundreds of other wartime items." Mr. Krug, in his statement, urged that the close cooperation of labor, management and govern ment which proved so effective during the war, be continued in mobilizing industry for peace. "We must now set up machinery to keep us constantly ahead of | mobilization problems," he said. The Jackson Victory Pulp wood Committee gave as the first example of such continuing coop eration in peacetime, the current recruitment campaign for woods and mill workers now being joint ly conducted here by the pulp and paper industry and the U. S. Em ployment Service, and added: | "Peacetime needs for pulpwood products are expected to substan tially exceed even wartime re quirements, a condition now re flected by the immediate need of mills in this area for more top quality pulpwood." Veterans interested in obtaining an FSA loan are advised to locate a farm for rent or sale, and then to apply at the Farm Security county office in the county where they plan to settle. A committee of three local farmers passes on applica tions and approves loans. Further r, formation on FSA services may obtained from the county FSA oi'i'ices. More than 2,500 War II veterans received rehabilitation loans mounting to $3,213,000 by June 30, 1945.
