Margarine has been lowered from six to 2 points per pound. The new values are effective through June 3, 1944. Ttis reduction was made possible by seasonally increased production. LUMBER INDUSTRY NEEDS MEN More than 60,000 men are need¬ ed for lumbering and pulpwood jobs before next fall if 1944 require¬ ments are to be met, according to a statement from the War Man¬ power Commission. Efforts will be made to switch farm labor to the woods as the harvest season closes and to recruit other seasonal work- That Natftfintf Backache May Warn of Disordered Kidney Action Modern life with its hurry and worry, irregular habits, improper eating and drinking^ . its risk of exposure and infec¬ tion . throws heavy strain on the work of the kidneys. They are apt to become over-taxed and fail to filter excess acid and other impurities from the life-giving blood. You may suffer nagging backache, headache, dizziness, getting up nights, leg pains, swelling-. feel constantly tired, nervous, all worn out. Other signs of kidney or bladder disorder are some¬ times burning, scanty or too frequent urination. Try Doan' k Fills. Doan's help the kidneyc to pass off harmful excess body waste. They have had more than half a century of public approval. Are recom¬ mended by grateful users everywhere. Ask your neighbor! ers. Lumber stocks are at an all- time low and the estimated 1944 minimum requirements of 35,500,- 000,000 board feet must be met al¬ most entirely from the 1944 output. SEASONAL INCREASES IN POULTRY PRICES Consumers will pay an average of two-thirds of a cent more a pound for poultry over a period of one year under the OPA ruling pro¬ viding for seasonal increases in prices of chickens and other fowr. The new prices will continue through June of this year, and from January through June of next year. From July through Decem¬ ber of this year the ceiling prices will revert to the unadjusted base prices as listed in Table A of the Poultry Regulation. Premiums to the producers, which will be passed on at all levels of distribution, range from a low of a half-cent a pound in January to a high of 2.2 cents a pound in May. TO REDUCE HOG PRICES Ceiling prices on hogs weighing more than 240 pounds live weight will be reduced 75 cents per hun¬ dred weight on and after May 15, 11)44, the OPA said. The action is designed to discourage the use of corn and other essential grains in bringing hogs up to heavy, uneco¬ nomical weights. SELL CORN TO GOVERNMENT Farmers in the surplus-produc¬ ing counties of the corn belt are urged by the War Department, the War Production Board, and the War Food Administration to sell corn to the Government to assure continued production of critical war materials, the Department of Agriculture announced . The ap¬ peal is for corn not required for the farmers' own needs or the needs of feeders in their own communi¬ ties. ROUND-UP Civilians have been allocated 120,000,000 pounds of cheddar cheese for the quarter ending in June, WFA says. OPA announces that 10,000 new passenger auto¬ mobiles and 12,000 new adults' bicycles will be available for eli¬ gible applicants in May. More than 41,000 wives and infants were giv¬ en medical and hospital care in March under the Emergency Mat- ' ernity and Infant-Care program, according to the Department of Labor. Dairy owners will find it easier to purchase water heaters as a result of a WPB action re¬ moving restrictions from sales of direct hand fired (solid fuel) hot water heaters of the following types: bucket-a-day stove, dome- type water heaters, and service water and tank heaters. There was no net change in the average cost of living essentials between Feb- rurary 15 and March 15 because lower food prices balanced higher costs of spring clothing, household equipment, and services, the Labor Department reports. Pot type oil burners may now be purchased by consumers without a preference rating, WPB says, but, in the case of new installations, authorization for delivery of fuel oil must be obtained from PAW before pur¬ chase can be made.
