Inventory restrictions on all slaughterers and meat handlers have been temporarily suspended as a follow up of the quota lifting for two months. No Supervision, No AAA Payment . No farmer can have his farm certified for payment under, the 1943 AAA program unless it has been supervised. And its up to the farmer to do his own supervision this year. That is exactly the situation on AAA payments this year, warned Leo McKinnon, chairman of the Rich County AAA committee. In reporting, a farmer should bring with him a sketch of his farm showing the fields of various crops and the acreages of each. Then he should have the acreages, numbers or amounts, as the case may be, of all or production, practices carried out on the farm under the 1943 program. Return Empty Food Containers. The War Food Administration urges consumers who buy fruits and vegetables in bulk return their empty containers to dealers from whom the purchases were made to help relieve a critical shortag of wooden containers. are needed for packing and shipping other commodities to market. Save Alfalfa Seed. Since anticipated need for alfalfa seed is considerably greater than this year's estimated production, it will be necessary for farmers to save as much as possible of this years seed crop, says Delmar Kearl, member of the Rich County USDA War Board. in the AAA Farmer's cooperating farm program may earn a payment of an acre by harves- t- g alfalfa seed. The purpose f this payment is to encourage- farmers to' harvest as much seed as possible instead of just the heavy producing areas. Dehydrated Vegetables. Practical dehydration of vegetables is summarized in popular form in a new Commercial Dehydration of bulletin, Vegetables and 'Fruits in Wartime, prepared by the Department of Agriculture. Findings .of, the. Western Reg ion Research Laboratory at Albany, California, where research is still going on, have furnished much of the technical foundation for the rapidly expanding dehydration industry in the U. S. Fed Cattle. soil-buildi- rs .Slaughter supplies of fed cattle during the remainder of 1943 are expected to be somewhat smaller than a year earlier. Most of the decrease will oc- cur ni the late months of the year. The number of cattle on feed for the second consecutive year is smaller this fall than last, the decrease being 11 percent in the corn belt. But the margin between feeder and fed cattle prices, which had been unfavorable for the last few months, was almost as wide in early August as in recent years as a result of sharper decline in prices of feeder cattle than in prices of slaughter cattle. Randolph. Utah. Friday Sept, 17, 1943 25 POUNDS OF SUGAR PER PERSON Farmers of Rich county have only until September 30 in which to apply for third quarter AA-- 2 quota lumber. No preference ratings are to be issued for this lumber after that date. This lumber is to be used for construction and repair in connection with the production and preservation of food, but not on farm dwellings. Families who have received their 25 pounds per person allotment of sugar for canning may not expect to receive more this season, but this need not deter anone from putting up all available fruit since it may successfully toe canned with little or no sugar at all. The OPA has advised the board that shipping facilities and domestic sugar supplies do not justify canning sugar in addition to the ten pounds per person allocated by the use of stamps 15 and 16 in war ration book one and the 15 lbs. that may be allowed for each member of the family by the local board. On the subject of sugarless home canning, the board member quoted a U. S. Department of Agriculture bulletin as follows: "The usual wartime canning rule is to allow one pound of sugar .o four quarts of finished fruiF. A little sugar helps canned fruit hold color an I flavor but the sugar is not essential to keep the fruit from spoiling. If you have more fruit than sugar, put up some fruit unsweetened, and sweeten to taste when you serve. Home canners attention was called also to a provision in the rationing regulations which permits local war price and rationing boards to issue up to 25 pounds of canning sugar to farm families where the finished product will be offered for sale to others. In this event however, the person receiving the sugar is required to report to the board each month itelling the amiunt of the product transferred during the past month and to whom it was sold or transferred. Ration stamps at the rate of eight processed food points per quart must be collected at the time it is transferred and turned in to the board along with the monthly report.
