1 Eight THE INDEX-JOURNAL, GREENWOOD, S. C. MONDAY, OCT. 30, 1944 Shop Early and Send Christmas Gifts By Dec. 1 All Christmas Gifts by December That reminder comes from the Columbia District Office of Detense Transportation to officially herald the opening of the Christmas season.

It's a premature season this year, ODT admitted, made necessary by wartime conditions. However, ODT asserted, the simple facts are that transportation facilities are already so overburdened that the only way to insure delivery of gift parcels this is to get them to the post ofyear fice or express company by December 1. After that, the government cannot guarantee delivery in time for the holiday. Briefly the reasons for the early deadline are listed by ODT as these: 1944 gift shipping is expected to top 1943 by 25 per cent. Gifts will travel greater distances due to wartime population dislocation.

Nationwide transportation and local delivery of Christmas packages, when added to the heavy holiday furlough travel, with all transportation facilities already overburdened by war conditions, creates a major problem.

m. Monday. Funeral arrangements are incomplete and will announced later by the Duckett Funeral Home. Place Orders For Kudzu Crowns Prospects indicate that kudzu crowns will be scarce this year and even if they are available will very likely be high priced, according to J. B.

Gambrell local Soil Conservation district supervisor. In view of these prospects, the district supervisors are arranging to contract now for crowns to be delivered during the coming planting season. Representatives of several agencies met in conference with Mr. Gambrell recently and worked out plans whereby farm owners wanting tudzu crowns may make arrangements now if they want to take advantage of this cooperative purchase plan. The important thing is that farmers arrange for their crowns 10w.

One thousand crowns will plant two acres and will cost $12.90 delivered to the farm. Mail or give your check for as many crowns as you want to Mr. brell, or see him in person. Mr. Cambrelf states that Miss Katherine Boulware in A.

A. A. office has also agreed to take orders for this planting stock. If you want some cheap feed for years to come, get in your order for crowns before Nov. 1, and get yur land ready for planting as scon as possible, urges Mr.

Gambrell. Points Remain Same During November Present point values on all meats and dairy products, including butter, remain unchanged for November, the District Office of Price Administration announced. Present point values on most processed foods also remain unchanged, OPA said. 'Points required for purchases of canned applesauce, however, have been reduced; and slight changes in point value requirements for packaged spaghetti and macaroni dinners have been made.
