Raleigh County Farmers Benefit From FSA Loans and Advice
Raleigh County farmers using Farm Security Administration loans and planning guidance have increased home food production by about 50 percent and net earnings by roughly 52 percent, per regional FS A data. Milk, fruits, vegetables, and meat outputs rose, with last year's figures showing higher home consumption and storage including 31 bushels of produce, 132 dozen eggs, and 12 gallons of lard. Expanded poultry and garden outputs are urged to meet local needs, with some former tenants moving toward farm ownership through the Bankhead Jones program.

Whitesville Likely to Get $200 for Detention of County Prisoners
Raleigh County faces a study by the state tax commission on paying about $200 to Whitesville for detaining county prisoners. County Clerk Harry Anderson expects payment, noting prior understandings when Whitesville provided jail blocks in exchange for housing prisoners. Whitesville Police Chief E C Wilson presented the claim claiming the law requires $1 for the first day and 50 cents for each additional day, while the county has paid 42 cents daily for feeding. The bill is under audit by tax commission officials in Beckley.

Sugar issued for canning totals 135401 pounds countywide
A War Price and Rationing Board report shows June sugar for canning rose by 23776 pounds to a county total of 135401 pounds with 7177 applicants. Major allotments went to Marsh Fork 11941 pounds to 486, Mark Twain High School 8157 pounds to 383, and Beckley 3651 pounds to 231. Emmons notes higher rural family allotments due to own fruit production and larger canning needs as recorded for the 1943 assessment. Three Shady Spring land tracts totaling 91.9 acres will consolidate from 41.2, 41.9, and 9.2 acres. Albert Hazelwood appointed as committee for veteran John H. Rice at Veterans Hospital in Chillicothe. Court adjourns and regular session continues as board of review and equalization handles property assessments and complaints.
