Maternity Car Fer Servicemen's
Wives
..M(re than three-fourths of the
states have received approval by the
Children's Bureau, Department of
Labor, of programs for, medical .and
hospital maternity care for wfves of
men in the four lowest pay grades of
the armed services. The program
also includes medical care for babies.
A sertieemian's wife may make ap
plication for complete medical care
during pregnancy and childbirth, and
for six weeks after childbirth. She
may also apply for medical care for
her child to extend throughout the
child's first year of life. To get
such cart, all that the wife needs to
do is to fill out simple forms, which,
if her own doctor is unable to fur
nish copies, she can get from the
State health department
No Gas To Go To Gardens
Special rations of gasoline for
travel to Victory gardens were dis
continued July 12, although rations
already issued for this purpose may
be used as long as valid. This action
was taken by OPA upon advice of
the Department of Agriculture that
gardens planted after that date would
be too late to produce enough food to
warrant extra use of tires and gaso
line in cultivating them.
Co-Ops Can Replace Stocks
Farmers' cooperatives anil any
other dealers who -ell farm supplies
at cost or at a markup of not mor
than three percent, are permitted to
replenish stocks on farmers' certifi
cates on a dollar-for-dollar basis,
under a recent amendment of Priori
ties Regulation No. 19. Previously,
the dealer could use the farmer's
certificate to tret supplies only up to
75 percent of his sales. The amend
ment enables farmers' cooperatives
which sell approximately at cost to
make full replacement of their stock.
Can't Send Recordings Overseas ,
Discs or recordings containing per
sonal messages cannot be sent to
soldiers outside the continental limits
nf thp TI. S.. the War DeDartment has ,
j rm u' t- I
announced. There is no objection to i
sending discs of personal messages
within the continental United States.
Grower Prices For Berries
Grower prices for seven types of
berries canned or frozen in 1943 have
been announced by WFA. Processors
will pay growers the following prices
(cents per pound): red raspberries,
15c; black raspberries, 13c; young
berries, boysenberries, logan berries,
and blackberries, 12c; gooseberries,
8c. Ceiling prices for frozen straw
berries have been established on the
basis of a grower price of 12c a
pound for stemmed berries. For all
other berries each processor will pay
3c per pound more than the average
price he paid under the OPA price
regulation for the 1942 pack. The
highest price processors may pay for
red sour pitted cherries is XMc per
riound.
Agricultural Jobs Filled
During May, the United States
Employment Service of the War
Manpower Commission filled 1,005,
489 jobs in industry and agriculture,
an increase of 11.2 percent over
April. Of these jobs, 297,725 were
in farm work or food processing, an
increase of 38.3 over April and 63.6
over May, 1942. For January
through May, the total placements
were 739,044, an increase of 128.4
over the same months in 1942.
Rations For Sick
Although the need to conserve ra
tioned foods is great, no hospital
patient's health need suffer, the
OPA has announced. Local rationing
boards have been given authority to
provide supplementary allotments to
meet the dietary requirements of pa
tients in hospitals whether or not
such patients are on special diets.
Fuel For Incubators
Fuel oil for incubators, brooders, i
and other equipment used in raising
poultry, livestock, or other agricultu
ral projects can now be obtained re
gardless of the flfre of the equip
ment. OPA has recently removed
these items from the list of equip
ment for which no fuel oil rations
were previously allowed.
Casualties Of War
Casualties of the United States
Armed Forces from the out-break of
the war to July 3 total 91,644. This
total, based on War and Navy De
partment reports, includes: dead,
16,696; wounded, 21,828; missing,
31,579; prisoners of war, 21,541.
Of these, Army casualties total 64,
621; Navy, 27,023.
Traffic Decreases In Rural Areas
Traffic on the rural roads in the
East decreased from . December
through May to less than half of
pre-war normal, according to the
Public Roads Administration of the
FWA. A minor exception is March
when eastern traffic was 52 percent
of normal. Traffic in the "western"
area, rationed since December 1,
1942, has settled down to less than
two-thirds of pre-war normal.
Winter Cover Crop Seed
Large supplies of winter cover crop
Feeds, acquired by the Government
in stabilizing prices for the 1942
crop, will be released for planting
this summer and fall. AAA will re
lease about 20 million pounds of Aus
trian winter pea seed for sale by the
OCC to dealers at $5.65 per hundred
weight, F. O. B. Oregon points.
Cover crops, which are a soil conser
vation measure, increase the nitrogen
in the soil when plowed under and
thereby reduce the amount of fertil-
izer required and release nitrates
needed for munitions.
Bandage Cloth Supply Assured
Adequate supplies of bandage cloth,
both for civilian and military use,
will be available. Looms making cot
ton cloth suitable for bandages and
other specified uses will continue to
do so, by a recent WPB order.
Farm Supplies Pro-Rated
A distributor of farm supplies is
now authorized to pro-rate deliveries
on the basis of normal shipments in
cases where the amount of farm sup
plies set aside by him does not com
pletely cover all the orders he re
ceives. Before this recent amend
ment to General Preference Order
M-330, a distributor was required to
fill orders solely on the basis of pre
ference ratings.
Local Poultry Prices
Regional Administrators of the
OPA now can adjust local processors'
prices for dressed poultry. Regional
Administrators also have the power
to change definitions of sellers and
types of sales. They are not em
powered to change the farmers' sell
ing price for live poultry, however,
and may not increase the selling
price of poultry at retail, or to any
ultimate consumer.
More Fertiliser To Be Available
From 5 to 10 percent more chemi
cal fertilizer will be available in the
year ahead, according to WFA offi
cials. It is estimated that U. S.
farmers used about 10 million torvs
of chemical fertilizer during the 12
months beginning July 1, 1942. Al
though the supply of nitrogen and
phosphates will be greater, potash
is expected to be less plentiful.
EPWORTH GROUP MEETS
The Epworth Group of Christian
Service of the Hertford Methodist
Church held its regular monthly
meeting at the home of Miss Peggy
Felton on Tuesday evening. Alter
the meeting was called to order by
the vice-president, Miss Anne Math
ews, an interesting and appropriate
program was
F 6
rendered by the lead
ers, Misses wnma ana mary ivuin
Wood, the subject being "Independ
ence Day." "America" was sung by
the group, and several readings and
poems on the subject were given by
Mrs. H. C. Stokes, Misses Anne
Mathews, Mary Ruth and Minnie
Wilma Wood and Mary Proctor.
At the close of the program, the
business session was presided over
by the president, Miss Ida Lee
White. Miss Minnie Wilma Wood
was elected news reporter and sec
retary, and plans were made for an
out-door social meeting in August.
Miss Barbara Winslow and Cecil
Winslow were reported as members
being on the sick list, and a com
mittee was appointed to visit them.
Those members and visitors enjoy-
ing delicious refreshments served by
the hostess were Misses Peggy Fel
ton, Anne Mathews, Mary Proctor,
Ida Lee White, Kittie Joe Beasley,
Pauline Reavis, Minnie Wilma and
Mary Ruth Wood, Fern and Gloria
Dougles, Mesdames H. C. Stokes,
Charles Skinner, J. O. Felton and
