MEEKER ROAD SITUATION

The attention of the east is being

This is evidenced by the following

Who gets the rest2"
That is the question which Secreta-
ry Wilson of the department of agri-
culture asked today in his annual re-
port. The secretary does not attempt
to answer it. He does explain in
some detail the results of an inves-
tigation his department has just con-
cluded into the effect of cold storage
on the wholesomeness and cost OF
food. His Investigation leads him TO
recommend publicity for the amount
of food In cold storage. Just as the
department now gives publicity to
the condition of crops from month to
month.
Instead of food remaining In stor-
age for longer than a year or two
years, as a rule. the secretary de-
clares that his investigation showed
that receipts into cold storage are
