FROM NEVADA COUNTY USDA WAR BOARD ‘* WHEAT QUOTAS LIFTED restrictions on the 1943 wheat crop: does not alter the fact that the United Nations need flax, carrots, tomatoes, beans, potatoes, grain sorghums, and other war crops, much more urgently than they do wheat. Most of the wheat crop in this state has already been planted, with exception of a few mountain counties, and estimates are that the acreage will not exceed 500,000 acres, as against 585,000 last year. California ‘wheat growers, aware the U. S. supplies are the greatest in history, have already changed over some of their land to the more essential crops. Particularly important to California is the over-all feed situation. Greater supplies of all feed grains ‘will be needed in the future to feed increased numbers of beef cattle and chickens, in addition to feeding hungry nations after the war is over. By lifting -of wheat quotas, Secretary Wickard has assured additional feed reserves for both human and live‘stock consumption. Producers this year will be eligible for full wheat. payments under’ the} 1943 Agricultural Conservation Program, as well as CCC loans, if 90% of the total 1943 war crop goal for the farm has been met, even though allotments have been overplanted. Marketing quotas will continue for cotton despite the action on wheat. FARM MANPOWER DEVELOPMENTS AS many as 650,000 victory farm yolunteers will be recruited from nonfarm youth during the spring and summer months to help harvest the nation’s crops. War Boards may soon ibe requested to take the initiative in requesting deferment of essential farm workers. Since the War Units Plan was put into effect ‘last November about 864,000 farm workers have been granted occupational deferment into 24C or 3-C by the Selective Service. FRESH VEGETABLES AND VEGETABLE SEEDS Just as some’ vegetables for processing are more urgently . needed The removal of marketing quota. Sandon, Bob White, Etta} Russia from the University of California. ". COVER CROPS CAN BE PASTURED Because of the scarcity of “fresh feed in certain sections of the state, the California AA'‘A committee will permit limited pasturing of cover and green manure crops to qualify under the 1943 AC program. This move will assure a greater supply of foraze ifor livestock and at the same time allow the grower payment for soil building work, provided erosion do3s ;not oceur and previous standards for approval of cover crops are maintained. BITS AND PIECES Nexa week, March 7-14, is California Conservation Week, a reminder that in the struggle for greater food production, agriculture must not nezlect her soil resources, must not repeal World War [ mistakes which . brought .on dust bowls, erosion, and depleted lands. March 8 is the Tenth ‘Anniversary of the National ‘Farm (Program. In 1933 farmers began to ; adjust production to needs and in 11948 they’re still doing so.

California farmers and salvage committees can take a bow. __Nevada City Nugget — ‘Maniay, March/6, 1943. SL They helped to raise the state total of scrap collected in 1942 to 109 pounds per capita. The Feed Industry Council, an organization of feed manufacturers, ‘distributors and retailers, has adopted a voluntary program to limit the protein content or mixed, feed. Vital proteins used ia poultry and livestock feeds will be thereby conserved to meet 1943 and future goals for milk, meat, and eggs. ‘Care, Share ,and Repair’, is the current slogan on the farm machinery front. STONE NAMED TO RECRUIT FOREST FIRE FIGHTERSRecruiting of students for Suppression Crew position according to Guerdon Ellis, Supervisor of the Tathoe National Forest, is going on in the High Schools of the towns adjacent to the Forest. This is done in cooperation with State sc Sable emai of Forestry officials. The Forestry Class at the Nevada (City High School is progressing with intensified training, reports Ellis. (Many trained young men will be available to fill ressponsible protection jobs with the Tahoe National Forest and the Nevada County unit of the State Division of Fortsery. Forest Supervisor Ellis announced this week that (Central Dispatcher Ellwood M. Stone has been named recruiting officer for the Forest and will be in charge of recruiting for labor and protection posifions. Six men school teachers have signed up for summer protection positions. Ellis states that, women are showing an exceptional interest in Forestry work and many are applying for summer work To date four women have been assigned to summer Lookout positions.

FROM NEVADA COUNTY USDA WAR BOARD ‘* WHEAT QUOTAS LIFTED restrictions on the 1943 wheat crop: does not alter the fact that the United Nations need flax, carrots, tomatoes, beans, potatoes, grain sorghums, and other war crops, much more urgently than they do wheat. Most of the wheat crop in this state has already been planted, with exception of a few mountain counties, and estimates are that the acreage will not exceed 500,000 acres, as against 585,000 last year. California ‘wheat growers, aware the U. S. supplies are the greatest in history, have already changed over some of their land to the more essential crops. Particularly important to California is the over-all feed situation. Greater supplies of all feed grains ‘will be needed in the future to feed increased numbers of beef cattle and chickens, in addition to feeding hungry nations after the war is over. By lifting -of wheat quotas, Secretary Wickard has assured additional feed reserves for both human and live‘stock consumption. Producers this year will be eligible for full wheat. payments under’ the} 1943 Agricultural Conservation Program, as well as CCC loans, if 90% of the total 1943 war crop goal for the farm has been met, even though allotments have been overplanted. Marketing quotas will continue for cotton despite the action on wheat. FARM MANPOWER DEVELOPMENTS AS many as 650,000 victory farm yolunteers will be recruited from nonfarm youth during the spring and summer months to help harvest the nation’s crops. War Boards may soon ibe requested to take the initiative in requesting deferment of essential farm workers. Since the War Units Plan was put into effect ‘last November about 864,000 farm workers have been granted occupational deferment into 24C or 3-C by the Selective Service.

COVER CROPS CAN BE PASTURED Because of the scarcity of “fresh feed in certain sections of the state, the California AA'‘A committee will permit limited pasturing of cover and green manure crops to qualify under the 1943 AC program. This move will assure a greater supply of foraze ifor livestock and at the same time allow the grower payment for soil building work, provided erosion do3s ;not oceur and previous standards for approval of cover crops are maintained. BITS AND PIECES Nexa week, March 7-14, is California Conservation Week, a reminder that in the struggle for greater food production, agriculture must not nezlect her soil resources, must not repeal World War [ mistakes which . brought .on dust bowls, erosion, and depleted lands. March 8 is the Tenth ‘Anniversary of the National ‘Farm (Program. In 1933 farmers began to ; adjust production to needs and in 11948 they’re still doing so.

The Feed Industry Council, an organization of feed manufacturers, ‘distributors and retailers, has adopted a voluntary program to limit the protein content or mixed, feed. Vital proteins used ia poultry and livestock feeds will be thereby conserved to meet 1943 and future goals for milk, meat, and eggs. ‘Care, Share ,and Repair’, is the current slogan on the farm machinery front.
