Citrus Growers Urged to Conserve Oil if Orchard Heating Becomes Necessary Because of war-time fuel and transportation shortages today, citrus growers who are equipped to heat their orchards during the frost season are urged to use the minimum requirements of heater oil to obtain the desired protection. In order to accomplish this, says Farm Advisor H. E. Walberg, growers will find the fruit thermometer used in conjunction with the regular sheltered air temperature thermometer to be very helpful. Intelligent regulation of firing based on fruit temperatures can save quantities of oil, according to the Fruit Frost Service of the United States Weather Bureau. Air temperatures as indicated by the regular air thermometer located in shelters does not tell all the story. Neither will fruit thermometers alone tell all the story. Wahlberg suggests growers observe the relationship between air temperature and fruit temperature on cold mornings when no heating is required so as to acquire experience. For newcomers in orchard heating management, the Agricultural Extension Service offers free, two practical bulletins that have been prepared for use of both the novice and the experienced grower who wishes to brush up on the fundamentals of efficient orchard heating technique. The bulletins are entitled, "Protection of Orchards Against Frost," and "The Use of Thermometers in Orchard Heating."

War Conditions Still Require Christmas Dim-Out For another war year, the public is asked to forego the traditional cheer of outdoor Christmas lighting, according to R. E. Bacon, district manager, Southern California Edison Company. “This request comes from the Office of War Utilities of the War Production Board, which states that war conditions still require that outdoor decorative lighting be dispensed with this holiday season, as in 1943 and 1942,” Mr. Bacon said. “In line with this thought, city officials, civic organizations, chambers of commerce, merchants, and citizens are reminded that illuminated outdoor Christmas displays are not in keeping with the nation-wide campaign to conserve fuel. “Elimination of outdoor Christmas lighting this year throughout the United States will save enough fuel to meet the electrical requirements of a city of 50,000 persons for a year, the Office of War Utilities estimates. “Indoor Christmas lighting is not affected by this one but be enjoyed in the customer.” Certain that its cooperate in this war station movement, the company hopes, as does every next year it will be Christmas lights to fulfill brilliance all world.” Sister of Mrs. Grace Schafer Mrs. Irwin Schafer Mrs. Grace Schafer and Alta Peck, both of the away last week at Hazelstone, Iowa, a word received here.

AAA AND THE FARMER REHASH OF FARMING OUTLOOK FOR 1945 Even with victory in Europe early next year, the demand for production from American farms will continue at a high level in 1945, according to the Department of Agriculture. Domestic demand for meat is expected to be almost as strong as in 1944, but meat production will be about 2 billion pounds smaller than the record 1944 output of over 24½ billion pounds (dressed weight). Total cash receipts from farm marketings may drop 5 to 10 percent, mainly because of the livestock decrease. The cost to farmers of purchased feed may be 10 to 15 percent less than in 1944. The cost of labor may be somewhat higher, although the probable increase in availability of farm workers will tend to check the advance in wage rates. A 119 billion-pound milk output is expected if returns to dairy farmers, including dairy produc- tion payments, are kept at about 1944 levels. This would equal the record output of 1942 and exceed by 1 billion pounds the indicated 1944 production. The civilian demand for dairy products is expected to exceed available supplies at prevailing prices, even with reduced military and Lend-Lease purchases. The supply of feed concentrates on a per-animal-unit basis will be considerably larger than in 1943-44, smaller in volume than in 1943-44, but still the third largest on record. Present prospects are that little more than half as much wheat will be fed to livestock as in 1943-44. With a large carry-over of many vegetable seeds and record crops in prospect this year, supplies of nearly all of these seeds will be more than ample to meet estimated domestic and export requirements. Fertilizer supplies are expected to be adequate, and the insecticide and fungicide supply for the 1945 crop year as good or better than in the previous two years.
