Conditioned upon congressional provision for administrative expense, Dairy Feed Payments for the next 11 months have been announced by the War Food Administration. These payments are made to offset increases in dairy production costs since September of 1942 so that producers can boost dairy production to the highest level possible. With milk production expected to reach its yearly peak during May and June, payments on whole milk are to be reduced 15 cents per hundred-weigfor May, June, July and August when cows are on pasture and feed costs are lowest. Butterfat payments will drop to 6 cents per pound for the period. In September, payments on milk move up 25 cents from the summer level which will be 10 cents above the March-Apr- il level and butterfat rates will go to 10 cents. The September rates are to continue through March. It is hoped that this advance notice will stimulate heavier production during the fall and winter when feed costs are highest than was obtained in 1943. ht four-mon- ffv43f nix ' Then tlse tracks. his in froze he Jeeps!

Below 240 Pounds NEWS o B Market Hog UTAH FiUlIM WAR th Page Seven BEAR RIVER VALLEY LEADER- - OPA's recent announcement that ctiling prices on hogs weighing more than 240 pounds will be lowered 75 cents per hundredweight on May 15 says in effect that producers can best serve the war effort by marketing hogs before they pass the Chicago ceiling prices on hogs weighing more than 240 will go down to $14.00 per hundredweight on May 15, while hogs weighing less stay at $14.75. Reason for the lower ceiling on porkers over 240 is the tightening feed situation brought about by record numbers of livestock and the tendency to feed to heavier weights. The average live weight of hogs slaughtered in the U. S. has increased from about 232 pounds in 1940 to about 254 in 1943. With an acute shortage of corn, a practical distribution of corn supplies makes it imperative that the hog population be somewhat reduced and also that the .porkers be allowed less time at the fed trough. 240-mar- a woman who knows her child tf Decem- ber, 1939, prices received by farmers for agricultural commodities during the month ended April 15 were below the level of the corresponding month a year earlier, U. S. D. A. reports. The price index, however, was nearly twice the 1914 average August, the same as in March and one point under a year ago. The month saw a sharp upturn in fruit prices; moderate advances in grain, tobacco, and cotton, and lower prices for hogs, calves, milk, and eggs. All principal farm products are now at or above parity except wheat, cotton, hay, peanuts, rye and lemons. Market supplies of livestock and livestock products during April were far larger than at this time last year, and the total supply of crops, livestock, and livestock products was about -. A .. ....

Comeback In Potato Price Country prices at all important markets for 1943 late crop potatoes have been reported to be at the support price or above. More orders for good grade old crop potatoes are being received in the main markets than can be filled. .... Onion Order Lifted Prospects for the largest supply history has resulted in the termination of the War Food Administration order controlling shipments of onions from 12 major producing states. Only a few hundred cars of 1943 crop onions were left to be marketed when the order was teiTninated after being in effect since last August to assist the armed forces and dehydrators to obtain required amounts of onions. States affected by the order were California, Oregon, Washington, Utah, Nevada, Idaho, Colorado, Minnesota, North Dakota, Michigan, In di anna and New York. 1 is being well taken care of can do her best cn a VICTORY job. At agricultural activity this season, there will be a need for approximately 800 additional women workers in Box Elder county. To meet this demand we must have the peak of food processing and the willing cooperation and mobilization of the women of the county. There are many women who will be unable to leave family and household duties, but who can take care of a working mothers' child. This will be a patriotic way to do your part in the war effort and at the same time, aid to the family bank account. Any women who feel they can contribute their services in this manner please send your name, address, and telephone number to the USES, First Security Bank building, Brigham city. In the absence of a Day Care for children center, this is our our only method for meeting this problem and your cooperation will be greatly appreciated. of early crop onions in A2 J J1 UTAH The crop and other rroducf that our farms and ranches are yielding under a policy established by successive state legislatures, has given agriculture a leading place in the state's economy and in the nation's war effort. We're helping farmers by giving them easy access to nearby towns and cities for marketing crops, and buying supplies. Our buses have aided them by bringing farm workers right to their gates. In many cases buses are the only form of public transporta's tion.
