He emphasizes that the need is great for farmers to . meet this huge production schedule which will again require the surmounting of many war time _— . caps. Although reports show farmers will plant close to the high goal.levels planting intentions need to be . . . sugar beets, dry beans, sweet pota-. toes, feed grains anf forage crops, . and supplementary hay and pasture. . Farmers in. spring wheat areas are asked to plant some of their intended sprinig wheat acreage to other needed crops such af flaxseed and} barley. Increases are being urged in milk production, cattle slaughter and pig farrowing. CALIFORNIA RANGE NOTES — Range conditions in several areas of California are far below what was expected from early indications. Continued cold weather and drying winds have prevented forage from developing and much of it is below normal at this time in though of good quality. A late season is in prospect for the high mountain meadow country. As late as last week winds of blizzard like proportions raged over the eastern side of the Sierras, and very little new growth has appeared to date. A substantial snow pack, however, assures adequate water fof the seasons irrigation needs, and some further increase in plantings of clover and grass mixture is planned. in, some central areas of the state there ‘are exceptionally good stands of bur clover where feed crops have been favored by more rainfall and less cold weather. CROP INSURANCE PROGRAMS PENDING—-Widespread crop insurance participation is expected in California’s 1946 wheat, cotton, and flax crops. Work on tabulating acturial date is in progress in county ‘offices and 1946 wheat crop insurance will be available early next fall.

This is the golden text for the Christian Science lesson sermon subject ‘‘Probation after Death’ for Sunday, April 29. Included in the sermon is Revelation 21:7: “He that overcome shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.’”’ A corelative eitation from the G@hristian Science textbook, “Science and Health with: key to the Seriptures, HAS BACKGROU! er NEW PRESIDENT A LVR 245 Pr OF FAR By Ralph H. Taylor A Missouri farm boy. Harry. S. Truman, whose family for four gen. erations has lived at “‘Grandview” a rolling botttomland farm on the outskirts of Kansas City—and ‘who hopes some day, when_ his public career is ended, to return to that farm—is the new president of the United States. Of President Truman‘s principles and policies little is yet known, for he was suddenly .catapulted from comparative obscurity into the most powerful office in the mightiest nation on the face of the earth. There was a ring of deep sincerity . and humility and high purpose, how-. he learned. He: believes that a farm ever, in his first message to congress, which may augur well for the future. ‘
Coming into office at a time of tremendous crisis, and succeeding a man whose personality dominated the entire government, dent said simply: “Unquestionably we shall face problems of staggering proportions. However, with the faith of our fathers in our hearts, we fear no future.”’ ’ Then again, in the concluding paragraph of his address, which frac marked throughout by a of Wumility, hé declared: “T ask only to be a good and faithful servant of my Lord and my pebople’’. Only a hopeless skeptic, listening to his words, would doubt that Harry S. Truman, as he entered ‘upon his duties as the president of the United States, was reverently conscious of the great responsibility suddenly thrust upon him—and earnestly determined to give his best in the service of his country. Harry Truman, judging from his humble speech, and his career prior to his elevation to the presidency, would be the first to disavow any claim, to greatness. He describes him self as “fa common sense liberal.” and as a man who knows the value of a dollar. That latter characteristic, incidentally, may have tremendous significance for this whole country during the critical years of adjustment from war time conditions to peace. For Harry Truman, if we can believe what his friends say in Washington has a firm belief in sound economics—and will do everything in his power to put an end to “deficit financing” conditions permit, President Truman first gained the national spotlight, during his second term in the United States senate. as head of the Truman investigating committee— fighting extravagance and waste in war expenditures. Back in the early days of war preparations he jarred not only the senate but the entire nation with his documented charges of waste and slip-shod contracts in the government’s handling of war production, with the result that war production authority was concentrated in one man, War Production Chief Donald M. Nelson. Perhaps the most hopeful index of President Truman’s character however, is that of all the congratulatory messages which have’ flooded in on note as soon as the new presi-! . him he liked. best -what his 9lyearmY Ri i i i ic a a Se ee A te ee pls tli ‘ ; gerd # . old mother said, when asked to s =. : a < ulate on his career: om Q? ‘ ‘ : 63 ius “That boy,’ she said ‘could plow es : 2 . country.”’ % ee +13 or ah og Se, a Fhere is nothing of pihra %& : * A te X of maker about the new. president ys ; Ks ! * There is little of the color 9 Zorn ~ ’ 2 rant personality which enabled Rooss:*% Stitepaee \A to push precedent aside and 6 BA 1, : a) ; cupy the White House for mm 3 ‘ SRS RF eventful years than any other presi» Xs ae gh f -4 dent in the. country’s histofy “4 % 3ut-there are strong indications . #% Ke : + ee oh Sa that the new president of the United om Ks States believes in the simple virtues and principles of old-fashioned Amthat enterprise the must and those who believe private ed, or that government ericanismis out-mod£ American fiorm be overboard, will get little encouragement from him. President Truman, according io his friends, learned his %conomies 9n . the farm—and still believes in what fe) thrown . should operate at a profit, say his . friends, and that a government} . should live within its income.

We hope that size-up of Harry S. Truman. is correct. If it is, the leadership of the nation is in good hands —and the farm boy from Missouri may achieve the greatness which he now disavows.
