The tonnage, is the first half of a deliv-j ery agreed upon for this year. The seeds will be used in the Ukraine, for the most part, the richest Sov-i iet agricultural district, which/earlier in the war, wa 8 overrun to the extent of 150,000,000 acres, py the Nazis. During the German retreat in 1943 and 1944 the I Nazis carried out an effec tive policy of destruction ,j of nearly 60,000,000 acres. This seed help from the : United States is made pos-- ■sible, incidentally, through jthe growth in this country of a practically new indus try in America; in pre-war .clays this country was pri-; jmarily a seed importer | from European nations and never produced more than a fraction of the seed re quired to sow American , crops. The war has radically . changed this. Shipment of; seeds to Russia means great savings in shipping space , in contrast with the vessels POST AL /NOTES NOT CASHABLE OVERSEAS >! Persons writing to ser ■ vice men and w’omen over • seas are urged not to sendj Postal Notes simplified ! money order forms to ’ their husbands, sons, and 1 sweethearts in the service ; overseas. » Although the postal not-. ■ es went on sale by the Post Office Department on Feb-1 ruary 1, 1945, Navy post j offices afloat and at over seas bases, are not author ized to cash the notes. They may only be cashed within the United States and are good for only two calendar months from the date of issue. INFANTILE PARALY SIS DRIVE Bald Creek Bth grade | boys, * Mr. Maney), $21.05.
