Good Practices in Planting
Peanuts
The peanut acreage assigned to
Montague county for 1944 is about
16,000 acres, but present indica-
tions are that this acreage will not
be reached this year. The shortage
of labor to harvest this fall, as
well as the disappointing crop last
year seems to be the main reasons
for the decline in plantings.

More Articles from Farmers
Approximately 3,000 farmers in-
terview in a recent survey, near-
ly half reported they had no trou-
ble in buying any item on the list
of 43 essential articles, ranging
from flashlight batteries to cream
separators, WPE announced. As a
result of production programs pre-
viously approved by WPB’s Office
of Civilian Requirements, supplies
of the following items have been
increased—flashlight, fence control
and ignition batteries; "crescent’
and monkey wrenches; grease guns;
hand drills; floor brooders: and
cream separators. In addition,
farmers are now permitted to bor-
row engine and tractor fuel storage

ers.
The seed this year may be slight-
ly lower in quality than In normal
years. For this reason. It would be
well to plant shelled peanuts, and
treat them with a seed disinfect-
ant. Such treatment hastens ger-
mination, and produces stronger
plants. Shelled peanuts should be
treated, then planted Immediately.
The seed disinfectant has increas-
ed yields about 30 per cent. Care
must be used In the treatment pro-
cess, however, to prevent a cruising
of the seed.
Peanuts respond to fertilizer more
rapidly than any crop we have,
By all means farmers should try to
get higher yields per acre as It
is not more difficult to harvest a
good crop than it is to harvest a
poor crop. The rate of application
should be 150-200 pounds per acre
and can be put down at the same
time as planting.
The past week of windy weather
should serve as a reminder that
peanut soil always Is a blowing
soil, and that some protection Is
necessary to prevent soli loss from
wind. The planting of peanuts In
strips with hay or feed crops Is a
useful practice only If sufficient
stubble Is left. It is not the mere
planting In strips, it Is the vege-
tative protection of the stubble that
prevents the blowing.
The better peanut farmers In the
state are using these practices to
produce a good crop, and save their
farms at the same time.

Music Week Is
Observed by Club
Now is the time when farmers
make the crop plans which will
make or break our oil supply posi-
tion for the year 1945. We are
fixed all right for 1944. We have
had the biggest slaughter of hogs
in history. We have turned out
the oil from the 1943 crop of soy-
beans, peanuts and flax; the big-
gest ever grown in the United
States. We are going to be able to
Import more from foreign coun-
tries than we did earlier in the war.
But what about 1945? Farmers
will give the answer with their
plantings off oil crops this spring.
We will need oven more fats and
oils In 1945 than In 1944.
will be a year of heavy demand
for explosives and other miltary
products of the oil crops, or great
demand for fats as food. But it
will be a year of smaller produc-
tion of animal fats, as the hog
population declines under the need
the need of adjustment of animals
to feed supplies. We will have 400
to 500 million pounds less of these
fats than In 1944. We must re-
place this with oil crops. That re-
placement will require the full na-
tional goal acreage of these crops.
Should oil crop acreage fall short
of the goal for 1944, the nation
risks falling short of a critical war
material in 1945.
The March 1, Intention to Plant
Report indicates that Texas will
fall short of the peanut goal by
about 275,000 acres. The situation
is similar in other oil crops. Al-
though Increased price supports for
soybeans and peanuts were an-
nounce after March 1, and acreage
planned Is somewhat greater than
indicated on March 1, It appears
that present plans are still far
short of the goal.
The direct war use for oils must
be met—glycerine for explosives,
plastics for guns, other weapons
and equipment—glue for construc-
and

The Dorcas Sunday School class
met in the basement of the First
Baptist Church on Monday night,
April 24.
The class was called to order by
the president, Mrs. R. L. Vlttetoe.
Mrs. T. U. Alverson gave the de-
votional. It was taken from Mat-
thew, 7th chapter.
Mrs. Nettle Hagler led In pray-
er. A short business meeting fol-
lowed. The minutes were read and
reports given. Mrs. Nettie Hagler
was elected vice-president to fill
the vacancy made by the resigna-
tion of Mrs.. C. W. Gentry.
A delicious meal was served to
the following members: Mrs. E. B.
Vice, teacher; Mrs. Lee A. John-
son, Mrs. J. R. Gaines, Mrs. Annie
Portwood, Mrs. Will Rice, Mrs.
Florence Pruitt, Mrs. Nettie Hag-
ler, Mrs. M. F. Long, Mrs. Clorls
Cavness, and Mrs. W. L. Robin-
son.
Round-Up
The Department of Agriculture
says—eggs, beets, and carrots head
the list of plentiful foods over
most of the country, followed by
potatoes citrus fruits, citrus mar-
malade, lard, frozen vegetables and
baked beans, cairned green and
waxed beans and peanut butter. A
crop of about 2.800,000 sacks of
onions is expected this year, com-
pared with 1,808.000 sacks In 1943.
Spare stamp 37 in War Ration
book four, and not sugar stamp
37 should be attached to applica-
tion for 1944 canning sugar. Fre-
quent rains, snows, or cold weather
during March have delayed’ farm
work In nearly all states. Since
lettuce crops are damaged If al-
lowed to go dry, soil in the lettuce
row should be kept just damp
enough so it can be formed into a
ball without crumbling. As our
military successes increase and the
Allies liberate more territory, we
must expect heavy demands for our
food, which will continue for an in-
definite period. Per capita con-
sumption of cigarettes in the U.
, S. last year was the highest level
on record. Consumption of snuff
increased over the preceding year
and consumption of smoking tobac-
co, Cigarettes in the U. S. last
year was the highest level on re-
Consumption of snuff in-
creased over the preceding year
and consumption of smoking to-
bacco, cigars, and chewing tobac-
co decreased.
OPA says—new “factory seconds”
passenger tubes may be purchased
without a rationing certificate, and
motorists eligible for used passen-
ger tires (grade III) may now ob-
tain new “factory seconds” passen-
ger tires. A larger amount of
dairy feed probably will be avail-
able to farmers in feed deficiency
areas as a result of a new maxi-
mum price regulation. 1________
primarily those whe eat at logging
camps and other on-the-job eating
places, will receive extra food ra-
tions for periods starting May 1.
While waste paper collections
have been increasing steadily, OWI
said, they still are behind estimates.
A gradual increase in production of
-Bunas, the Rubber Director says,
makes it possible beginning May 1
to permit unrestricted use of
grades A and C synthetic rubber
camelback in retreading.
