Local Farmers Will Aid In
Defense Production Effort •]
The chief aim of farm families
cooperating in the local program
m to
bring their farms to maximum ef
ficiency and help produce the food,
feed and fiber heeded for nation
al defense. County Supervisor
Howard M. Watkins said today..-
A total of 38 family farmers In
Harnett County are currently using
the agency’s supervised credit to
buy, enlarge, develop, or operate
farms, or to improve inadequate
housing. As a reshit these famil
ies are now better able to raise
products in short supply.
The emgil farm Is the greatest
cultural iabor. yet it is producing
far below capability because land
Is not being effectively used and
capital reserves or suitable credit is'
lacking. The Sparkman Committee 1
of the United States Senate has
pointed, out that a million farm
families over the nation are only
a third as productive as families
on well-developed -tad well-organ
ized family farms such as the Far
mers Home Administration creates.
Some of those farmers are here
in -hit locality.
TASK OF SUPERVISION
Ttye job of tye county supervis
or In each Farmers Home Admin
istration office is to help borrower
families arrange cropping systems
that would make the best use of
the land and. as far as possible, to
work out programs to keep famil
ies fully employed on their farms.
In carrying out FHA goals of as

duction, only sound FHA loans will
be made. They will be for the tools
