Government Takes Processed Cherries From Adams County
The War Food Administration has taken over all hot packed and frozen red sour cherry production in Adams County to support national defense. The order affects processing, sets aside 100 percent of 1945 production for government sale, and restricts civilian use with price to be announced. Some fruit may be sold for home canning but civilian access to the 1945 crop is limited nationwide.

New PW Camp To Be Ready In August
A 800 man prisoner of war camp near Camp Sharpe will ease farm and canning labor shortages in Adams county. Government spokesmen say inmates won’t be usable until the August tomato canning season. Local canneries demand PW labor to harvest crops and process fruit headed for shipment. During canning, wood pulp labor will drop but remains a high priority. First PW labor turns go to canning, with surplus allocated by product value to the war effort.
