000,000 from its pre-war size, the
government reports.
The Census Bureau and the
Bureau of Agricultural Econom-
ics estimated that 27,550,000 per-
sons were living on farms on
January 1, 1947.
This is a gain of 2,400,000 over
the wartime low of Jan. 1, 1945,
but represents a loss of 9.8 per
cent from 1940. The statement
said some of the difference
might be attributed to the fact
that farm population is at a sea-
sonal low in January, but added:
“However, most of the decline
is expected by the fact that there
was a large net movement of
civilians away from farms dur-
ing the war and that no* all dis-
charged servicemen who lived
on farms when they were induct-
ed or when they enlisted, return-
ed to farms.”

Some products have soared out
of all relation with others com-
pared with pre-war days.
Some cities where living costs
were lowest in 1939 pay the most
now.
The surveyed showed:
You can eat for less, by and
large, in Minieapolis than in
most cities.
You pay more for meat in the
packing capital of Chicago than
elsewhere.
Your housing dollar buys more
in San Francisco and St. Louis,
and least in Denver, compared
with the other cities.
Your clothing dollar goes about
as far one place an another, but
buys a lot less than in either
1939 or 1946
When you hear the “greatest
( battle song of all” you see the
j brides coming down the aisles.

Rat Control War
Now Underway In
Red River Co.
Last week marked the begin-
ning of a county wide Rat Con-
trol Program in Red River coun-
ty, according to County Agent
Herman Lynch. Government con-
ed 1080 poison will be used and
will be put out by a representa-
tive of the Fish and Wildlife Ro-
dent control service.
It is especially important to
control rats now since feed crops
will be going into the barns with-
in the next few weeks. Rats are
responsible for an untold amount
of damage to grain, meats, build-
ings, and other things as well as
being spreaders of diseases. In
normal times one rat will eat
S2.00 worth of food and damage
$20.00 more.
