Improved Feeding Tactics Boost Farm Production Effort
Beadle County farmers are urged to adapt winter feeding methods to convert abundant livestock feed into human food. With high feed supplies, production of meat, wool, milk and eggs can rise to meet wartime demand. One tankage pound can replace six to seven pounds of corn, speeding market readiness by twenty to twenty five days. Protein needs cited: hogs 16 to 17 percent, milk cows around 15 percent, laying hens about 18 percent. When feeding corn alone, protein shortfalls occur, but supplements like skim milk, soybean meal, linseed meal or tankage can balance the diet.

Wards fight War Labor Board order on closed shop clause
The War Labor Board order of November 5 1942 sought a closed shop with union dues check off at Montgomery Ward. The company rejected the board as unauthorized and violative of liberties, stating the order lacked legal basis and impinged on employees and the firm’s rights. The president issued direct compliance while Ward’s statement asserts the provisions are illegal and were imposed under duress. The firm asserts no contract exists with the union.
