There were very few incidents during Hallowe'en that got outside the reasonable limits of innocent fun. Most serious was the breaking of the show window. Porters Like Soap Paint was daubed on a few buildings and fences, but it was said to have been of the sort that is mixed with water, and therefore caused no permanent damage. Police seek the culprits, believed to have been juveniles. The usual soaping of windows occurred, but most evidence of this had been removed the next day. Scraping and washing proved a disagreeable chore for all but a few professional porters, who reaped a harvest of extra cash while demand for their services remained. Chief of Police Wilder handled the situation well, with all members of the police department on extra duty to handle the crowds. The regulars were augmented by extra policemen, members of the state guard, police from neighboring cities, members of the shore AND THE FARMER SCHOOL LUNCH ASSIGNED TO P & MA The school lunch program is the first new assignment of the Field Service Branch of the Production and Marketing Administration following reorganization of the Department of Agriculture. Effective October 22, all operational functions of the program were assumed by the state directors and state officers of P. & MA. Dave Davidson, chairman of the state AAA committee is director and E. H. Spoor, regional director of the Office of Supply, is assistant director. P & MA is the new agency, which at Washington and state levels combines the Agricultural Adjustment Agency (AAA), the Office of Supply and other USDA agencies. At the county level, the organization is still known as the Agricultural Conservation Association. So far, no responsibilities for the school lunch program have been delegated to county agricultural conservation committees. The purpose of the school lunch program is to see that growing children are well fed. Lack of proper diet for children is not necessarily caused by lack of money, although that is a pertinent factor in many cases. Poor diet may be caused by lack of and the agricultural products other nations, we are eager of repeating them that followed the first wave. Concerning adjustment in agricultural production time conditions: "During farmers of the United States increased food production than a third. Our increases in agricultural output during the war were not without far-reaching effects in our farm economy. Tortions were the result efforts to meet urgent national needs, and their reason to believe thatiments which will be will have international tensions." Complex problems are cited with expandingomy. "We must maintain level of industrial empire our farmers are to protect that high level will not impossible to without a progressive in international trade." NO WHEAT INSURANCE SOLD AFTER SEEDING "No wheat crop insured be sold to a farmer as gins planting," according Davidson, chairman of California AAA committee insurance application accepted in Orange County December 1, or the price if earlier." (Winter wance ended in the six counties September 29, wheat will end there 1946.) PRINTING THAT'S A CREDIT TO YOU The printed matter that goes out of your offices reflects your standards.

First Report on Victory Loan Continued from Page 1 "commissions" were First Lieuts. Thelma Woods and Evelyn Bauman, who had sold $300 each. Hasn't Yet Failed "Anaheim has not yet failed to meet its quota in any of the War Loans," Chairman Demaree remarked yesterday, "and I am not even considering that it will fail in the Victory Loan. I agree with Chairman Moulton of the Southern California War Finance committee, who recently said, 'California should be one of the first to go over the top, because we appreciate what could have happened here on the coast if our fighting men in the Pacific had not pushed the Japs back after the Pearl Harbor attack." Demaree quoted the following figures, showing how Anaheim has oversubscribed its quotas in all past bond drives, there having been no quota set for Anaheim in the first war loan: Second war loan, quota, $750,-000; sales, $830,031. Third, $1.-500,000 and $2,046,207. Fourth, $1,400,000, and $1,501,979. Fifth, $1,200,000, and $1,420,598. Sixth, $1,250,000, and $1,448,296. Seventh, $1,397,000, and $1,512,045. Highway Traffic 'Scares' Soldier Continued from Page 1 He was with the Sixth Marines when it wrote history by taking Nago, second largest city on Okinawa; when it helped the Army take bloody Sugar Loaf hill, and when Shuri airfield and Naha, Okinawa's biggest city and capital of the entire Ryukyuus group, fell before its assault. At the county level, the organization is still known as the Agricultural Conservation Association. So far, no responsibilities for the school lunch program have been delegated to county agricultural conservation committees. The purpose of the school lunch program is to see that growing children are well fed. Lack of proper diet for children is not necessarily caused by lack of money, although that is a pertinent factor in many cases. Poor diet may be caused by lack of nutritional education on the part of parents, or by lack of time to prepare nourishing meals. In one large California school the only hot meal 40 per cent of the school children receive each day is the one served them under school lunch. The program encourages children's appetites for nourishing foods, particularly milk, fruit and vegetables. One by-product is that surplus commodities can be diverted through this means at minimum cost to the program. Congress has appropriated $50,-000,000 to carry the program in 1945. Assistance is available to any public school in the United States, Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. Last April more than 42,000 schools were enrolled. There are only two large California cities which do not sponsor the program in their schools. A group or committee of parents or teachers or any local civic non-profit organization may act as sponsor of the program. The sponsor submits a monthly report of expenses to the P & MA and is reimbursed by the USDA for a part of the cost. There are three types of lunch approved by the department under the agreement. The sponsor is responsible for seeing the terms of the agreement are met, that is, that the necessary food is bought and properly stored; that the right amounts and kinds of food are served; that each child may have a lunch regardless of his ability to pay; that there is no discrimination between paying and nonpaying children. WASHINGTON AND STATE AAA OFFICIALS MEET G. F. Geissler, director of the western region, AAA, met in Berkeley October 11, 12 and 13 with state AAA committeemen from California, Arizona and Nevada to discuss action to be taken in combining AAA and some of the Office of Supply activities under the Production and Marketing Administration. Officials Highway Traffic 'Scares' Soldier Continued from Page 1 He was with the Sixth Marines when it wrote history by taking Nago, second largest city on Okinawa; when it helped the Army take bloody Sugar Loaf hill, and when Shuri airfield and Naha, Okinawa's biggest city and capital of the entire Ryukyuus group, fell before its assault. Outfit Decorated He was ashore on Guam, directing naval gunfire, when his outfit, the First Provisional Marine brigade, became the first to receive the Naval Unit Citation for recapturing the venerated old Marine barracks and the naval base there. Hoag recounts that no Jap prisoners were taken on Guama. The Marines had a lot of scores to wipe out on that tragic little isle. On the last night of the campaign, he mentions, 800 of the enemy had the choice of jumping over the cliffs of Orata peninsula or surrendering. All perished, most by suicide. He sent home a saber which he removed from the body of a dead Japanese officer during the battle. Guam Avenged Hoag was on Guam when the war ended, and returned without having received even a minor wound, although he saw much action. In fact, he declares he remembers nothing that might properly be termed a close call. However, some outfits in his division received replacements as high as 85 per cent following some of the engagements. A graduate of Anaheim Urion High school in 1939, Hoag was employed as a truck driver by the Southern California Telephone company prior to entering service. He will return to his job there Dec. 3. WASHINGTON AND STATE AAA OFFICIALS MEET G. F. Geissler, director of the western region, AAA, met in Berkeley October 11, 12 and 13 with state AAA committeemen from California, Arizona and Nevada to discuss action to be taken in combining AAA and some of the Office of Supply activities under the Production and Marketing Administration. Officials from both organizations were present. Under reorganization of the Department of Agriculture, OS personnel are transferred to AAA and the work of the two agencies coordinated. Plans are being worked out for consolidating the offices to centralize USDA activities in each state. County AAA offices will continue without change, except that later they may take over some of the jobs formerly handled by OS fieldmen, in connection with school lunch direct distribution programs. Mr. Geissler also discussed administrative problems of the 1945 and 1946 AAA program. The California 1946 handbook of conservation practices is nearly completed and approved copies will be ready for distribution before the first of the year. USDA SECRETARY TELLS WORLD FARM PROBLEMS Three farm problems which face the United States and the other nations of the world were outlined by Secretary of Agriculture Clinton P. Anderson before the Food and Agriculture Organization conference at Quebec, Canada. Regarding price support commitments for farm commodities, he stated "If each of us tries to fulfill these commitments independently without regard to the need for expanded world trade and the agricultural problems of other nations, we are all in danger of repeating the mistakes that followed the first world war." Concerning adjustment of agricultural production to peace-time conditions: "During the war, farmers of the United States increased food production by more than a third. Our amazing increases in agricultural production during the war were not achieved without far-reaching distortions in our farm economy. The distortions were the result of our efforts to meet urgent international needs, and there is every reason to believe that readjustments which will be necessary will have international implications." Complex problems are associated with expanding world economy. "We must maintain a high level of industrial employment if our farmers are to prosper, and that high level will be difficult if not impossible to maintain without a progressive expansion in international trade." NO WHEAT INSURANCE SOLD AFTER SEEDING "No wheat crop insurance can be sold to a farmer after he begins planting," according to Dave Davidson, chairman of the California AAA committee. "Wheat insurance applications may be accepted in Orange county up to December 1, or the planting date if earlier." (Winter wheat insurance ended in the six northern counties September 29 and spring wheat will end there March 2, 1946.) The state AAA committee reports that 23 of the 48 wheat growing counties in California have qualified for 1946 wheat insurance by receiving requests covering 50 wheat farms or one-third of the wheat farms in the FARMERS ORGANIZE TO BUILD DRAINAGE DITCH Fourteen Yuba county farmers organized early in 1945 to build and maintain a drainage ditch nearly 5 miles long across 1585 acres of farmland near Marysville, California. The ditch was built according to AAA specifications and the group will receive partial payment for the cost of their project through the agricultural conservation program. Practice D-12, Drainage Ditches, is encouraged by AAA to help farmers carry out needed drainage on their fields. Ditches should have well protected outlets and discharge channels to prevent erosion. Full particulars about the practice are available at the Orange county Agricultural Conservation Association office, Santa Ana. One of the farmers who participated in the group work is O. Schieber, who has used conservation farming methods for several years. He milks 50 cows on a Grade A dairy, and has 17 acres of prune orchard. He produces all the ladino clover pasture and part of the hay required for his herd. Under the 1944 conservation program he planted nine acres of ladino clover pasture mixture and applied superphosphate to the pasture. He also turned under a green manure crop in his orchard. In 1945 he applied more superphosphate, seeded more cover crop and planted an additional 32 acres of ladino pasture. He also leveled and subsoiled 10 acres of land and mowed weeds in his pasture. All these practices are encouraged through AAA to build up the land and stop waste and depletion of soil resources. 1946 SPRING PIG GOAL AND SUPPORT PRICES ANNOUNCED Choice hogs is $12.00 a hundred pounds live weight Chicago basis. This is adequate to reflect at least 90 per cent of parity to farmers, as provided by the Steagall Amendment. The support price for sows is 75 cents less than for gilts and barrows. SPOT FARM NEWS: Dairy farmers can now receive production payments based on higher butterfat content, if they can supply county AAA committees with satisfactory evidence of higher tests. This revision in regulations came about with removal of the limitation of 20 per cent butterfat in cream. Farmers no longer need apply for Federal licenses to buy explosives or certain explosive ingredients used in killing weeds, and in fertilizer. Removal of wartime restrictions permit any person who is not prohibited by law to manufacture, sell or buy explosives and ingredients. Surplus potatoes are now being diverted to industrial butyl alcohol for use in paints and lacquers and as a source of synthetic rubber. One plant in Philadelphia receives about 75 carloads of potatoes a day for this purpose. Other plants at Omaha, Nebraska, and at Muscatine, Iowa, use surplus potatoes for production of motor fuel and anti-freeze solutions. There are no potato diversion plans on the Pacific coast. One of the major post-war projects of the USDA will be to increase rural electrification of U. S. farms. Claude Wickard, REA Administrator, states our entire national economy will benefit from this project through labor and materials required. Only 44.7 per cent of all U. S. farms have electricity. When accepted in Orange county up to December 1, or the planting date if earlier." (Winter wheat insurance ended in the six northern counties September 29 and spring wheat will end there March 2, 1946.) The state AAA committee reports that 23 of the 48 wheat growing counties in California have qualified for 1946 wheat insurance by receiving requests covering 50 wheat farms or one-third of the wheat farms in the county. Insurance is obtainable at the local AAA office at Santa Ana. Davidson explains that the crop insurance is the first program instituted by any government to give farmers protection against crop loss. Many other programs have been devised to protect the farmers' income after a crop is harvested, such as the price support programs through commodity loans or direct purchase, or the marketing quota program. So far, wheat, cotton and flax are the only crops eligible for insurance. Eventually many commodities may be covered by insurance. Wheat insurance taken now protects farmer investment for three years against damage by unavoidable causes. 1946 SPRING PIG GOAL AND SUPPORT PRICES ANNOUNCED Secretary of Agriculture, Clinton P. Anderson has announced the 1946 spring pig goal for the nation of 52 million head, and an average support price for good to choice butcher hogs of $12.95 a hundredweight, South San Francisco and Los Angeles. The goal is about equal to the 1945 spring pig crop. Hogs marketed this fall will be supported at previously announced rates through September 30, 1946. The 1946 support price program applies seasonal variations to hog prices for the first time. The average $12.95 price for spring pigs will vary according to normal seasonal changes in hog prices, ranging from $11.70 in December, 1946, to $14.20 in September, 1947. Nationally, the average support price for good to crop in his orchard. In 1945 he applied more superphosphate, seeded more cover crop and planted an additional 32 acres of ladino pasture. He also leveled and subsoiled 10 acres of land and mowed weeds in his pasture. All these practices are encouraged through AAA to build up the land and stop waste and depletion of soil resources. The 13 penicillin plants in the U.S. and Canada, worth about $20,000,000, produce only nine pounds of pure penicillin a day. This amount seems small but it will treat 250,000 serious cases a month.

The value of a grower-owned citrus fruit canning and processing plant never was so evident as it was during the 1945 Valencia season. Small oranges could not have been marketed successfully except for the cooperative plan which balanced distribution of FRESH FRUIT with the distribution of CANNED FRUIT. True cooperation on the part of growers, packing-house managers and the M.O.D. Sales Department enabled this grower-controlled cooperative to market its record breaking 1945 Valencia crop in spite of labor problems and material shortages. It will pay you to investigate the complete marketing facilities of this modern cooperative. MUTUAL EXCHANGE DISTRIBUTORS REDLANDS, CALIFORNIA
