PulpwoodScarcity
Can Be Overcome
Asserting that current pulpwood
shortages can be overcome. Chair
man Donald M. Nelson of the War
Production Bo.ird today appealed
to farmers in the states where
pulpwood is produced to make an
extra effort to increase the pro
duction of this item.
“If every one of the more than
3.800,000 farmers in the 27 pulp
wood producing states were to de
vote three extra days in 1943 to
cutting pulpwood, we could over
come the threatened 2,500,000-
cord shortage with wood to
spare,” Nelson said.
Pulpwood, Mr. Nelson pointed
out, is of high importance as the
raw material for ammunition
containers, food containers, rayon,
smokeless powder and print pa
per.
“I urge every American farmer
to get in touch with his nearest
Department of Agriculture repre
sentative to .find* out whether he
can be of service in the produc
tion of pulpwood.” Mr. Nelson
said. “I, of course, realize the in
creased war load which our
farmers are bearing today, but
the pulpwood situation is serious
enough to justify this call for an
extra effort.”
The Department of Agriculture
has called attention to the press
Ing need for pulpwood, and coun
ty agents and State Foresters
stand ready to advise farmers on
proper cutting and marketing pro
cedure. The War Manpower Com
mission recently classed produc
tion of pulpwood as an essential
occupation.
In testimony early thlb .week on
^e pulp and paper situation be
fore the subcommittee of the
House Committee on Inter^tatp
and Foreign Commerce, Mr. Nel
son called attention to the reduc
tion in pulpwood supplies.

What is believed to have been

ever produced in Wilkes by one
farmer was the crop of P. R. Wil
cox, tenant farmer, last year on
the Glenn Williams farm in the
Goshen community.
Mr. Wilcox said that ^ he pro
duced 2,666 bushels of com last
year on about 48 acres of land. In
addition, there were 134 1-3 bush
els of wheat.
The amaz’ng thing about Ihe
accomplishm-sut was that Mr. Wil
cox produced the entire crop with
only the work of himself and his
three children, ages 14 to 17.

Home-Made Farm
Equipment Used
In Poultry Flocks
Good home-made poultry equip
ment can save thousands of t hick
ens this summer that would other
wise die, s&ys C. F. ‘‘Chick” Par
rish, Extension Poultryman at N.
C. State College.
He says that many flock own
ers are following a good feeding
program, with good birds and good
houses, and yet they are using
poor equipment. He points out
that plenty of hopper space from
which to feed, suitable and an am«|i'
pk number of walerers, range
shelters, adequate nesting facili
ties, roosting racks, catching
hooks, and nets or screens make
for better health and higher pro
duction of the farm flock. He
calls special attention to a home
made incinei'ator with which to
dispose of dead birds.
Parrish advises that all poultry
growers should have a copy of
War Series Extension Bulletin No.
-5, “Equipment For Poultry”, so
that they can build at home feed
hoppers, waterers, range shelters
and other equipment so necessary
for properly handling their flocks
This publication was recently
leprinted and a free copy can be

tural Editor, N. C. State College,

Washington, June 5.—A reduc
tion in meat prices, averaging
three cents a pound below cur
rent retail quotations, was order
ed tonight by the Office of Prjee
Administration in its second step
toward "rolling back”-the cost of
living by means of su'Dsidies.
■rhe meat slash will go into ef
fect in retail stores June 21 for
all cuts except cured and process
ed pork. OPA said. For pork pro
ducts the reductions become ef
fective July 5.
OPA’s action was taken in the
face of a decision of the House
banking committee to forbid pay
ment of subsidies by the Commo
dity Credit corporation, and a pro
test against them by^ the Ameri
can meat institute. ’This organi
zation of packers asked postpone
ment of any subsidy plan until the
recently formed war meat board
goes into action.
Prjee Administrator Prentiss M.
Brown has expressed determina
tion to roll back the prices of but
ter, meat, and coffee by ten per
cent each, through, subsidies fin
anced by the Reconstruction Fin
ance corporation at a cost of a]
proxlmetely.. $4^)0,000,000 pi
