'Farm Week' Audience I CHAMPAIGN, 111., Feb. 2 (JP) I Farm production can be Increased I without fear of forcing prices down, P.

Johnston of the de- parlmenl of agricullural economics, Universllyof Illinois, asserted today in an address at the opening session of the university's 42nd annual farm and home week. Demand is great enough to keep farm prices "bumping against the ceilings," Johnston declared in his repared remarks. The farmer who produces lhe most, he added, will make the most for himself and will ilso serve his nation best. In 1942 the volume of agricul- ural production was 52 percent jreater than for the 1910-14 period and 37 percent above the drought, period of 1934-36, he said. Farm in 1942 averaged 56 percent above the 1910-14 period and 47 percent higher than in 1934-36.

This combination, he added, resulted in the largest gross farm income on record.

Groundhog Day No Comfort to City Groundhog day held no joy for the city streets department. With sunshine to chase the woodchuck back Into his burrow for another weeks of winter, streets department men saw further struggle to keep the dirt streets in passable shape. Paucity of the cinder supply is a main worry for the department heads.

Cinders as obtainable are being spread daily at the worst spots on earth streets, formerly kept in good condition over winter by summer application of road oil, no longer obtainable due to the war. Alternate freezing and thawing makes most of the current street troubles, and if the groundhog Is right, this destructive process will continue into March. With cinders scarce, the streets department dares not use all on hand for the earth streets; a supply must be at all times available to spread on slippery hills when snow and ice prevail. Watson Funeral Rites at Medora for expanded food goals will be discussed fully at the three-day meeting. Despite tire and gas rationing, officials predicted that fully 2,500 would attend.

The job of the farm wife now is doubly Important, since shy now must- do more farm work than usual in addition to her regular home-making chores, Miss Lila J. Bane, head of the department of home economics in the department of agriculture, declared in another address. "Get after your own job," she urged the farm wives. "Do it better. Do it faster, Do it more economically." State crop and poultry growing champions will be selected during the sessions, and on Thursday the Illinois Farm Managers Association will make its annual selection of an Illinois farmer as the man making the outstanding contribution to agriculture.
