Utah, as 2ml Class Matter SUBSCRIPTION RATES J2.50 1.25 754 ONE YEAR (In Advance) - The time has come for everyone of us who is putting a his or her part of hs income into War Bonds to contribution toward the winning of the war. To begin with we can all feel proud of what we have accomplished. There are more than 26,000,000 of us buying bonds out of income regularly. We work in 180,000 concerns, or business big and little. There is virtually no industry Our War America. all without a payroll savings plan in Bond purchases now amount to about $400,000,000 a month. While the nation was training and arming millions of our fathers, sons and brothers, the 10 per cent measure for War Bond allotments served its purpose. Meanwhile our national income has risen to record will heights. Consumer goods have steadily dwindled. We have 45 billion dollars above the cost of the necessities of life and present taxes in our pockets during 1943. There is plenty of dynamite in these loose 45 billions of dollars. If thrown into the fight in the form of War Bonds this money has sufficient power to blow Hitler's armies to shreds. Mis spent in competition with your neighbors for the fading supply of civilian goods, this money has the power to np the home front to pieces and destroy the backing our fighting these 45 billions of dollars will men must have. bring misery and chaos to every American family. More and more these facts are burning themselves into our consciousness. Where formerly one member of a family took upon him or herself the full War Bond duty, now every working member of a family must share the responsibility. War Bond families are springing up by the thousands, especially in war work areas. For example, if only one member of a family has been working and earning, say $200 per month, 10 per cent may be the most that can be saved. But if another member of the family is employed at, say, $150 a month, the total expenses of the family may not be increased at all, or very slightly. .It is entirely posjsible for the family to now put $120 or more than 30 per cent of total income into bonds every month. . There is no longer a War Bond yardstick, which all should obey. Ten per cent may be your limit. However for every 10 per center there are numerous potential 15 per centers, 20 per centers and even 50 per centers. We arte now in the invasion period of the war. The Yanks ar doing the invading and not the Nazis. War costs will mount daily. The cost in lives is growing by the moment. Can we do less than to place our payroll savings on the same invasion tempo of blood, sweat and tears?

Murray Thompson, newly appointed assistant director of the western division, AAA, told Utah farm leaders on his brief visit to the state that since the Btart of the conservation phase of the program, yields per acre have been increasing in a startling manner. The average yield per acre from 1937 through 1942 was 20.4 per cent above the 1923-3- 2 average. Food output in the ten years of the farm porgram exceeds food proproduction in the gram decade by more than 8 per cent.

They've taken our aluminum and parts of our cars. The Axis have the idea, so it's said, that they want to rule us. Why I'd rather be dead, than to have Herr Hitler or some of his men Tell us what we can do and just how, where and when. They think they could rule over our dead land, Though why they should think it, I can't understand. For we have courage, bravery and freedom for all ; And for us, united we stand or divided we fall. So come on each man who is eighteen or older; Enlist and we'll show the Axis who's bolder. There's the Army, Marines, the Air Corps, and Navy; Together you'll be the sand in their gravy. Of course we 'stay at homes' will do our bit, By buyin.g bonds and stamps to give the Japs a hit. We'll conserve on sugar and save all our rubber; We'll show the Axis that we're lot the tougher. So let's all do our best and do what is right; And you can bet your life we'll win this fight. written by Uteva Payne. pre-far- -- Wood To Burn The people of the Intermountain region should plan to use wood for fuel whenever this is feasible, a- 20-ye- ar Out For Yourself Figure It May Food Round-U- p for May, of The food round-u- p 1943 shows the following: Stocks of rationed foods, plus production in sight, probably will be enough to maintain current consumption through the year. The storage situation of unrationed commodities appears less favorable. Total production of livestock products is materially greater than during a similar period in 1942. Pork production is about 16 per cent above last year. Egg production the first quarter of this year was 16 per cent above last year and hatchery production of chicks was 13 per cent above 1942 for the first four months of the year. Milk production the first quarter of this year was 1 per cent above last, but production in April was 1 per cent below April a year ago because of bad weather. If crop prospects don't improve, consumption of feed grains -- 10-ye- ar A. N. RYTTCNG, Editor - Publisher BIX MONTHS (In Advance) . THREE MONTHS (In Advance) average. Indicated winter wheat production is expected to be about 501,702,000 bushels, around 29 per cent less than last year, but only 9 per cent leas than average. Pasture and the hay prospects for the nation are good. Hay production, plus carryover, may result in greater total supply than any year prior to 1942. But the supply per unit of livestock will likely be about normal and maybe slightly less than in any of the last five years. Conditions on western ranges is about the same as the average for this date. (This report was made before recent rains). Range prospects are fairly good except in the southwest where reduction in herds may be necessary. About 15 million acres of corn still is to be planted and good weather is needed to mature late plantings ahead of frost. Production of oats indicated at bushels is 14 per cent below the 1942 crop. Barley is estimated at 371,044,000 bushels, 13 per cent under last year. Progress, however, is favorable for barley in the western states except California. Milk production has been retarded by the late spring. The peak is expected from a week to ten days later than usual. The May output of milk was 11.9 billion pounds, 2 per cent under a year ago, but 8 per cent above the 1937-4- 1 average for May. Hens and pullets laid more than 61 billion eggs in May, 13 per cent above the number for May 1942 and 37 per cent above the 10 year average, a record for the month. Estimated commercial truck crop production for fresh market was 13 per cent below 1942, but av2 per cent above the 1932-4- 1 are erage.
