Coffee By Mail North Carolina coffee drinkers who order their blends by mail may now "pay" for the purchase by enclosing detached ration stamps with order rather than the entire ration book, OPA has announced. Formerly, con sumers were required to forward their War Ration Book to the retailer or wholesaler for removal of stamps. Ice Box Prices , Ketail price ceilings on new ice boxes have been established by OPA by models for North Carolina. Pres ent prices will be lowered in many cases. Three sets of retail ceilings have been provided: (1) Sales by ice companies and their stores, prices ranging from $26.75 to $75.00 deliv ered; (2) Mail order sales $18.95 to $59.96; (3) All other sales at retail $31.25 to $86.50. More Farm Machinery A total of 30,000 tons of carbon steel, with other materials in pro portion, has been allocated to the farm machinery program for the quarter beginning July 1. An addi tional 200,000 tons of steel have also been approved for each of the three quarters from October 1, 1943 to July 1, 1944. During the third quarter of this year, special emphasis will be given to the manufacture of harvest ing machinery for this year's crops. The whole farm machinery pro gram has been stepped up. Inspection Requirements Changed Tire inspections for North Carolina commercial motor vehicles now may be made every 5,U(X) miles or every six months, whichever occurs first, ODT says. Previously, commercial vehicles had to have tire inspections every 5,000 miles, or every 60 days, whichever occured first. Data On Prisoners American soldiers officially report ed as prisoners of war in enemy countries to date total 17,083, the War Department has announced. Of these, 11,307 are held by Japan; 3,312 by Germany and 2,464 by Italy. However, these reports are incom plete. Information in the hands of the War Department indicates that the basic diet of an American soldier in German prison camps is larely po tatoes, cabbage, fish, and an indefin ite amount of meat. To Substitute Tires Farmers in the State needing farm implements or front wheel tractor tires will be permitted to purchase Teen-age Boys Solve Farm Labor Shortage Jerry Padgett, who is only 10 years old, and Robert Herbert, 15, have qualified as expert tractor op erators on their fathers farms in Clay County and have solved a criti cal labor shortage, says Fred S. Sloan, State program leader for the N. C. State College Extension Ser vice. He reports that the boys are operating tractors and tractor-drawn machinery like veterans in plowing, harrowing, seeding, and cultivating the crops. When the boys teamed up their fathers decided to do the same thing, and now the two farms are operated as one. The two owners pooled all of their labor and equipment and found that they had two tractors, a combine, grain drill, lime spreader, a two-row corn planter, cultipacker, two mowing machines and rakes, two disc har rows, one drag harrow, two disc plows, a two-row cultivator, and va rious other smaller pieces of ma chinery for the 100 acres of crop land and 75 acres of pasture. After the pooling plan was put in to operation, the Herberts and the Padgetts found that they could not only do their own work easily but that they also bad time to spare; Ac cording to Sloan, they took their trac tors and machinery over to neighbor ing farms to help relieve labor con ditions there, swapping machine hours for hours of hand labor. . Sloan says that this swap-work program is doing more than any other one thing to solve farm labor shortage problems in the State and he urges growers everywhere to co operate with their neighbors in get ; ih flip necessary jobs done. suitable substitutes when they are unable to find a dealer with tires designed expressly for their purpose, the OPA has announced. Dealers may also sell passenger car owners tire and tubes of a slightly different size than is called for by th-i ration ing certificate. Leather For Civilians Manufacture of many civilian leather products, which was prohibit ed after June 1, can be continued through 1943 out of manufacturer's inventories, under a recent WPB amendment Among products affect ed are dress gloves and mittens, brief cases, new upholstery, radio cases, pocketbooks, handbags, cigar and cigarette cases, key cases, to bacco pouches, watch straps and dog furnishings. Gas Coupons Changed A new "TT" gasoline coupon, which replaces the present "T" cou pon, will become valid for use on July 1. The old type of "T" cou pon will be invalid after July 25. OPA expects the change in design to help take up "slack" mileage and re move potential sources of black mar ket gasoline. Only An Officer Judge What's the charge against this man, officer?
