Operating Costs County Planning

WT. ....Here Wednesday


Up i3.1 Per Cent

Increased Cost In Gulf County
Amounts To But 3.1
Per Cent

Cost to taxpayers of operating
Florida's schools this war year
will be 53.7 per cent greater than
in 1940-41, regarded as the last
normal 12 months. But in Gulf
county the increase will be but 3.1
per cent, which is 50.6 Iper cent
below the average for the, state as
a whole.
The state department of educa-
tion announced last week the per-
centage of increase in taxes levied
for support and maintenance ran
from 1.8 in Citrus county to 113.6
per cent in Monroe county.
The overall tax bill, 'covering
both actual operation of classes
and retirement of debts, will be
23.98 per cent greater than in
1940-41, but only 2.1 per cent more
than last year.
The department, previously re-
vealed that Florida's 13,000 teach-
ers, principals and supervisors
were receiving 22.5 per cent more
salary than they did four years
ago. This meant, in dollars, the
wage for white and negro instruc-
tors has been raised, on an ave.r-
age for the 67 counties, from $105.6
a year to $1296.
Arranged according io the paer-
cen tage of increases in taxes
levied for all school purposes, tax
bills in some of the neighboring
counties in this section for 1943-44
will show these differences from
19410-41:
3ay 39.9,; Crihoun 17.4, Holmes
10.9, Santa Rosa 17.2, Okaloosa,
S9.1, Walton 35.3, Wakulla 18.5
Washington 9.8.
Four counties of the state will
show a reduction, as follows
Hamilton 2.6 pcr cent. Martin
4.2, Sarasota 10.1, Levy 13.4.

Man Killed At Tyndall Field
C. A. Soderberg stated that yes-
terday morning when returning
from Tyndall Field he saw a man
being removed from beneath an
overturned tractor at' the edge of
the highway. His neck had been
broken, and apparently death wa,
instantaneous.

Mrs. Gus Creech and Mrs. Dan

aluminum bracelets each from
Seabee Kenneth Creech, who is

In the letter accompanying the
bracelets, Ken said that they

Will Work Out Post-War Develop-
ment In Industry, Shipping
.And Agriculture

About 25 representatives of local
civic organizations, together with
city and county officials and busi-
neiss men of Port St. Joe and We-
wahitchlla, met Wednesday after-
noon at the Port Inn for the pur-
pose of organizing a county plan-
ning board.
The meeting was sponsored by
the Kiwanis club, and was un-
doubtedly a direct result of a pro-
gram presented by the Rotary club
at its regular meeting on Thursday
of last week. At that time the Ro-
tarians had 'as their guest speaker
Mr. Hooten of the state planning
board, who outlined a very comrn-
prehensive program for post-war
development and put it squarely
up to the leaders of our county as
to just what they wanted to do for
Gulf county after tlhe war.
He stated that the only way to

This is the slogan and goal of a

three months.
The new drive begins on Armiis-

is hoped the threatened 2,500,000-
cord pulpwood shortage for 1943
will be averted.

Sharks Lose Again
Last Friday night at Centennial
Field the St. Joe Sharks met the
Apalachicola gr-idders for the sec-
ond time this season. It was really
an exciting game! At the half our
boys ha.d them 6 to 0. During the
second half the Apalach boys
crossed the goal line through sheer
luck, because our .boys certainly
outplayed them. The game ended
with the score 21 to 6, in favor of
the visitors.
Today the Sharks meet the Ti-
gers at Blountstown, and even
though our boys know that the
odds are against them, they're still
plenty game.
At the end of the season we're
going to, give a special writeup on
the high-score man. Come on boys,
who's gonna win that?

We Wonder-
-How Carolyn rates an experi-
ment (physics) with the new boy,
George?
-Who the sailor is that walks
to the drug store every Sunday
night with F. H.? Darn it! Won't
he, ever go any further!
---If those junior girls will ever
stop fussing among themselves?

Pork Production

Purina Merchant Volunteers
Help in Plugging Pro.
duction-Leaks
Ninety-seven percent of all swine
herds need some correction which
would increase pork production.
Authority for this statement comes
from a national survey recently
completed on 9,532 U. S farms cover-
jing all 48 states. The survey was
:made by field men of Purina Mills,
1St. Louis, Mo. i
Pork Sabotaged
.Other significant facts brought
,put by the survey indicating that U.
JS. pork production is being needless-
aly sabotaged are as follows:
Average number of pigs marketed
per tow in entire year of 1942-
10 (five pigs per litter)
49.8 percent of farrowi6g' pens had no
guard rails.
59.4 percent of owners do not disinfect
farrowing pens.
29.6 percent of owners reported trouble
from swine diseases.
41 6 percent do not keep a man with
sows at farrowing time.
73.8 percent do not creep-feed the
pigs.
48.2 percent do. not vaccinate pigs.
52.3 percent do not worm pigs.
28.6 percent do 'not feed supplement
to sows and pigs.
24.7 percent do not feed, supplement
to fattening hogs.
17.8 percent do not have enough far-
rowing pens.
23.4 percent have farrowing pens that
are too small.
Recommended Practices
To assist local hog raisers correct
,such deficiencies the Purina Mer-
,chant of this city has volunteered his
time tires and gasoline to visit each
feed lot and discuss with farmers a
,series of recommended practices
which have been approved by both
national and state agricultural auth-
orities.
The purpose of the visit is not to
check up on any farmer's opera-
tions or in any way to tell. him how
to run his business. Nor does the
Purina Merchant, lay claim to any
superior hknorile4g not already; ,-pos-,
sesied by good nog i.ed'ers of this
community.
Conserve Feed
Styling his activity "The Food for
Victory Crusade" our Purina Mer-
chant is unselfishly devoting his ef-
fort to help farmers realize a great-
er return on their feeding operations
at the same time they conserve pre-
cious feed and produce the addition-
al pork so badly needed by our fight-
ers, war workers and allies.
i It is hoped that farmers of this
community will give the "Food for
Victory Crusade" their hearty back-
'ng.
TIRE ALLOTMENT FOR
FLORIDA DECREASED,
Appeal Made to Truck Owners to
Prolong Life of Tires
cHere's discouraging news for
Gulf countymotorists whose tires
are. wearing .out: For November,
only 7,582 grade one passenger car
. tires have been allowed the entire
state of Flori.dla, which has 1,500,-
000 running wheels at present.
The truck tire. situation likewise
is bad. A total of 6,803 new truck
tires have been released by Wash-
ington to cover the needs of 480,-
000 running wheels in operation in
the state.
tGordon Morecroft, district ra-
tioning executive, in an appeal to
truck owners of the state, says,
"Many truck 'operators will find it
necessary to eliminate some or
their mileage in the months to
come unless every precaution Is
taken immediately to prolong the
life and use of their present tires."
IMorecroft stressed the fact that
abuses such as over- and under-
inflation, using rims which are too
small or in such condition that
they will not properly function
with the size tire in use, improper
distribution of load, and high
speed should be eliminated if op-
erators expect to get tire replace-
ments. Ration boards will reject
applications for tire replacements
it it is evident that the operator
has abused the tires he is now
using.

NEWSPAPER PULPWOOD COMMITTEE


"EXT THURSDAY is Armistice Day. In
other years that day has been dedi-
cated to the memory of the men who
gave their lives in World War I. But this
year Wve believe -those honored dead would,
rather join with us, the living, in paying
honor to the men of another generation who
have taken up the weapons that fell from
their lifeless hands..

This year we in this community are asked to6
observe Armistice Day not with words but
with deeds. This year we have a special re-
sponsibility.

fThis Armistice Day marks the beginning of
a new drive to make up the shortage in pulp-!
wood. Everyone who can possibly do so is
asked to cut an extra cord in honor of some
friend or relative in the service.

There are two good reasons for putting the,
drive onrr this basis.

First, it takes nearly a ton of pulpwood to'
supply each man in the service with the many
things he needs. 4

Second, the present pulpwood shortage, 2 I
million cords, is just about equal to the num-
ber of service men who come from the pulp -
wood-producing areas.

So if every one of us in this anod their pulp
wood-cutting communities cuts an "extra cordt
for our service man, the emergency will le
met. No fighting man will lack any -f thet
thousand-and-one war. essentials tgat are
made frpm p ulpwood '

No oy shal die because we ile.

Our Country Right or Wrong

ARMISTICE DAY

All America should honor Armistice Day
this year as a day of high inspiration, not
as a day of frustration because we are again
at war.
Next Thursday, Novenil5er 11, marks the
anniversary of the greatest triumph in our
history. On that date in 1918 we climaxed
our fighting efforts in the last war with a
smashing victory. Let us recall that victory
next Thursday to reassure our hearts. We
won then. We can and we will win now.
In a spirit of' consecration to the job of
winning the war, winning the peace, and per-
petuating our tried and tested principles of
s-elf-government, let us observe this coming
Armistice Day with the pledge to those who
died in the last war and those who are dying
in this war that WE WILL FIGHT, WE
WILL WORK, and WE WILL SACRIFICE
until victory is ours again!

AIRPORT IS A FUTURE NECESSITY
Air transportation has made great strides
during this war and when the peace comes
it will be fully developed for civilian use both
for passengers and as a freight carrier.
Powerful transport planes already in use
are capable of taking on a load of freight in
Port St. Joe and lading it within a few hours
anywhere in South America or Europe, or
thousands of miles away in the Pacific. Only
two handling 'will be necessary-one when
the cargo is loaded and another when it is
unloaded at its destination across the water.
This method of transportation will no doubt
be much cheaper than the present method
which requires many handling and many
days to reach the customer in foreign lands.
The same quick method of transportation
will also be used within this country. A plane
can be loaded in Port. St. Joe in the morning
and be in New York, Chicago or San Fran-
cisco long before the day is over.
Communities without airports will, of
course, be unable to take advantage of the
new order in transportation until such facili-
ties are provided.
In the postwar planning for Port St. Joe,
since we apparently will be unable to secure
an army or navy air base here, one of the
first considerations should be an airport suf-
ficiently large to take care of passenger and
freight traffic. The airlines are already pre-
paring for that day when their planes will be
used for commercial purposes. .Many air
routes have already been mapped and are
only awaiting the coming of peace to be in-
augurated on regular schedule.
Forward-looking citizens and business lead-
ers in every live community will recognize
what is in the future and prepare for it in
order that their communities may have full
advantage of every facility that will make for
better living and better business when this
grim business of war is ended

to break a lot of people of the smoking habit.
They're so bad that you can't even .blow
rings with the smoke from them.


OVER THE TOP OR FAILURE?
The success or failure of the Victory Pulp-
wood Campaign, which has been underway
for three months, depends on the outcome of
the new drive announced this week to "Cut-
a-Cord of Pulpwood for Every Local Boy In

Service."
This drive might be likened to the Battle
of the Argonne Forest which decided the last
World War and led to the armistice. If we
put over this drive, we will have won the 1943
battle for greater pulpwood production and
overcome a 2,500,000-cord shortage which
threatens to hamper our progress against the
axis powers. .
We've already made a substantial contribu-
tion to the war effort in the extra pulpwood
cut to date in Gulf county. More is being cut
now than during the months before the cam-
paign started. But it isn't enough. War needs
are great.
Let's get behind this new drive and give it
the final push needed to put the Victory
Pulpwood Campaign over the top. Then we
can be sure that no soldier, flier, sailor or ma-
rine will suffer for lack of the many things
pulpwood provides him.
And we will know that no boy has died
because we have failed.

CALL FOR HIGHER PRODUCTION
In the months ahead, farmers will have
their biggest assignment in the kvar so far,
and while Gulf county is not primarily a
farming area, everyone can help by planting
a Victory garden
Increased food production is so essential to
the war effort that a number of government
agencies have joined the United States De-
partment of Agriculture in conducting a
"Food for Freedom" campaign during the
month of November. Various national or-
ganizations and advertisers will give gener-
ous backing to the campaign to help the pub-
lic gain a complete understanding of the war
food problem as a whole.
Florida's 1944 food production goals have
been set, and the campaign seeks to enlist
every family in the production, proper use,
and conservation of iooci.
Production of the tremendous amount of
food needed will not be easy, but we are face
to face with the stark fact that if we fail to
get full production, or if we selfishly consume
as a people all that our vastly increased pur-
chasing power would enable us to buy-then
our soldiers and our allies may be short of
supplies.
Increasing casualty lists and the knowl-
edge that every pound of food needed and
not available will prolong the war and cause
unnecessary casualties should be sufficient in-
centive for Floridians to exert their utmost
energies in food production.

FOOD WASTE
Garbage pails get a bigger share of Amer-
ica's. food production than the army, navy and
lend-lease combined. Statistically-minded ex-
perts now report that food waste in the U.
S. last year averaged 235 pounds per person.
That works out to 15 per cent of production
Six per cent of 1942's output went to our al-
lies, 7 per cent to the armed forces.
If every American family eliminated the
waste of one slice of bread a week it would
add up to 100,000,000 loaves in a year.--Wall
Street Journal.


Researchers have discovered that six times

I was listening to a special ser-
vicemen's program Sunday night
coming from station KOA at Den-

ber of soldiers from neighboring
fields were brought to the micro-
phone. I thought of Paul Johnson,

Monte Gentry, age 4, says his
grandpa, George Cooper, caught a
fish at least two and a half feet
long (he couldn't stretch his arms
any .further), and that he himself
caught two about "so long." Shame
on you, George, for getting your
little grandson to lie like that for
you!

of the steel drum and not drawing
the curtains, letting the volunteer

SINCE there's not enough protein feed to
go around, we must stretch our present
supply to produce all the meat, milk and
eggs necessary for VICTORY.

This means we dare not waste precious
feed on unthrifty livestock or poultry. We
must cull unprofitable producers-save
more pigs-stamp out disease and para-
sites prevent costly losses.

We know from our many farm contacts
that most of these production "accidents"
can be prevented. We are convinced that
our food goals can be reached without ad-
ditional labor or expense, and with the feed
we now have, simply by plugging unnec-
cessary production leaks and stopping
easily-preventable loss and waste.

Accordingly, as our part in the "Food for


community to help stamp out such wasteful
Production Saboteurs.

We will gladly call at your farm at any
time to assist in such feed-saving practices
as culling chickings worming pigs dis-
infecting houses, birds and animals against
parasites and disease-checking feeder and
watering space, etc.

We also offer a helpful war-time produc-
tion survey of your livestock and poultry,
based on a series of practical production
guides suggested and recommended by both
national and state agricultural authorities.

This "feed-stretcher" service is offered to
every feeder in this community regardless
of the feed le is using. Nor will you be obli-
gated in any way. We only wish to share

There used to be three of these "you know what"... but American
military might has chased the third one 'igi' back where he started from.
Until final Victory is won the demand for an ever increasing amount
of war materials must be met. That is why your government has called
on the electric companies to join with other vital war industries in a na-
tion-wide conservation program. You can help bring the day of Victory
nearer by conserving wherever possible in home, store or factory. Fuel oil,
transportation, manpower and critical materials used in the generating
of electricity are needed elsewhere for the war effort. That is why your
saving of electricity-along with those of millions of others- will help
give America the POWER TO WIN,

The Director of the Office of War Utilities has stated that there is no
shortaqe of electricity but every consumer is urged to co-operate in this
volujr:?&ry program so as to save vital materials of war. USE WHAT
YOU NEED ... but NEED WHAT YOU USE. Back up our Fighting Front
by saving on the Home Front.
