IN 1935, a far-sighted legislature gave life to the Washington Wine industry and hope to the fruit growers of our state. That year, only 100,000 pounds of Washington fruit was made into wine. Inseven years, more than 100 million pounds of Washington fruit has been consumed by this new group of customers, and fruit growers will sell prof- itably 30 million more pounds to Washingtonwineries in 1943. The growth of the wine industry of our state will continue to balance the scales in favor of Wash« ington fruits, for, by that legislative act of 1935, Washington Wines must be made exclusively from fruits grown within our state.

C.—F. H. Brun- dage, western log and lumber-“ad— ministrator, was directed by the war production board last week to take, active control over the cutting of Douglas fir lumber and to allocate logs wherever neces- sary, tion of war-essential types of Pa— cific coast lumber. Production of certain construc— tion-type lumber, such as dimen- sions, uppers and siding, will have to be curtailed, WPB said, to in- v crease the supply of ship decking and planking, pontoon and air- craft lumber and structural stress timbers. The directive was cause bad weather in the Pacific issued be- tr’ies where men are walking over each other, or doing usc- } Northwest has reduced the antici_ less things. This should bring up the major question of an army of more than ten million men in service, along with' those in government detail work, and how the nation’s produc- tiveness can be maintained to feed the men in service and on lend-lease, and leave something at home for the civilian population. The question of hours of work should also be considered before drafting all the able-bodied men, and the straight hours increased, but with some leeway for those living afar from their jobs and who are forced to spend two or more extra hours dailv to and from home. Women are to some extent easing up the situation in war industry, and a million or two men could be cut from the government payrolls and either put in war industry or back to the farms where there is equally urgent need. There are other troublesome questions connected with a general draft of manpower into war industry, including the forcing of men from civilian jobs into industries which are unionized and would require the newcomers to pay dues in order to work, and often without their consent. NEW POWER MEASURES CAN WAIT One question before the Legislature can well afford to wait until after the war issue is Settled, and that is the effort to decide the course of electric power ownership in this state by legislative enactment rather than by vote of the Whole people. The initiative petitions only secured six per cent of the registered vote, and no further action should be taken other than submit the question to vote in 1944. There is no war emergency in the move to take over all the private power concerns in the state, which have so far performed well in meeting the expanded demands for power without any fuss and have pooled all their re— sources for meeting needs for present and prospective in- dustries. And there is no time or emergency just now to undertake extensive suits to absorb these properties, or to take public funds or issue more bonds, general or reve- nue; nor to distract attention from all-out war effort. Behind this movement is the apparent intention in the end to centralize all the nation's electricity in the control of federal agencies, and in due time to absorb all the pres— ent city and public utilities, taking their control away from the people in their respective districts; this would include the Seattle and Tacoma municipal operations as well as sev- eral like those of Mason. County which are already well 2"} organized and functioning satisfactorily, and central fed- eral control would offer no improvement. MORE WALKING XND LESS SHOES _— l The nation was hit by a new and unexpected order Monday which placed under rationing footwear and caught a good part of the people thinking about buying a new pair of shoes, but for one reason or another most of them had procrastinated and now must use stamp No. 17 for limit of three pairs a year. In the cities Sunday stores did a great business but elsewhere shoes were frozen Monday, and a new worry added to the men of families who have young children to be shod three or more times a year. However, Dad and Mom must now forego being so well shod While their chil- dren. draw part of their ration. But more is to come as new items getting scarce go on the ration cards.

There is “no in- tention to disrupt existing ar- rangements" in the industry, it was stated, but in some cases it may be necessary to divert Doug- las fir logs from the regular chan- nels. “The situation is so critical that available logs and sawmill capac- ity producing Douglas fir lumber must be directed to the most essential military and civilian us- es if minimum requirements are to be met,” WPB said.

Snyder, extension horti- culturist. “Greater emphasis will be plac— ed on raising victory gardens, not only on the farms but in other communities as well,” says Dr. Snyder. “The aim is to have a ‘garden for every home.” A Victory garden bulletin is now being prepared which gives helpful information not only for 3 the novice, but for the experienced gardener as well. It will deal with such subjects as soil preparation and fertiliza- tion, suggestions for garden crop varieties according to zones of the state, and suggestions on how to extend the productive season by planting at the same time several varieties of hybrids maturing at different seasons, and planting fall gardens in areas where this is possible. This Vootory Garden bulletin will be available soon from your county agent. Also included in the horticul— tural project will be an enlarged 4-H club program featuringhome production of foods. The small fruits project calls for a greater supply of these foods conferred on him last September. » to be raised in home gardens.
