4 busnel an acre, 10 export.
The possibilities of increased acre
age for wheat growing is nearly a
myth. Nearly all the land well
adopted TO wheat growing already is
being cultivated. Irrigation in the
far west and southwest will help
considerable. but on the whole ii will
be difficult to take care of the grow
ing population through increased
acreage.
An increased production is The
only answer. The farmer of the flu
ture will be required to make two
blades of grass grow where only one
grew before This can only be done
through more scientific farming.
Many seemingly worthless pieces
Of land have already been redeemed
by scientific farming. A greater
production Of fruits and vegetables
has already been achieved. 1t has
created profit on the balance sheet
Of the farmer where deficits showed
up before. Scientific farming will
continue to Go more for the farmer
and the nation.
1t is a peculiar fact that the people
of the United States rarely fcok to
the peoples Of the older nations for
experience. False patriotism has lei
many of us to believe that we just
naturally can do things better ana
need not look to them for guidance.
But it is fact that the same prob
lens that we are attempting to solve
have already been solved in Belgium,
France, Germany and other European
countries, where the food production
fell below the requirements of the
populations centuries ago. What has
permitted comparatively small ma
tons with dense populations to pro-
vide sufficiency of food, and in
some cases leave some over for ey~
port, is a system well worthy our at
tention.
European farmers are not natur
ally smarter" or more resourcefu.
than those of the United States. They
were faced by situation they had to
meet and solve, while ours are Just
beginning to meet such circum-
stances.

THE ONLY WAY TO END WAR.

New York state has law known
as the Sullivan law. 1t makes 1t q
crime to own and carry concealed
weakons. 1t is to prevent eXcitable
persons from committing murder
An international Sullivan law
would be good thing for humanity.
With no ornaments on earth, wa
probably wouldn't be very attractive.
Peace societies have been handi-
capped in their efforts because they
talked peace to nations grooming
under heavy armaments. and forever
suspicious of one another Under
such circumstances, a substantial
peace achievement was impossible.
A United States of the World, with
inherent power to settle disputes,
would be the end of war.
Does it look impossible? Then SC
is perpetual peace. For without
some such arrangement war is bound
to break loose ever SO often.
Nations with guns at their dis
posal are Just as uncertain as a man
carrying a weapon around with him

POPULATION AND PRODUCTION

The time is sool coming when the
population of the country will be so
great that the entire American wheat
SUPPLY will be needed for domestic
Use.
Obviously, there will be no wheat
to export: but worse still. this con-
dition will result in a shortage
This prophecy is based on figures
that seem to be irrefutable. Besides,
it is logical to suppose if the popula-
tion continues to increase as swift
" as in the last 100 years, and the
wheat supply no swifter than it has
during that time, a shortage is not
far distant.
Then, instead of being an exporting
ration as regards wheat, we will
have to import.
The population of the country Il
twice as great as the number o.
acres devoted to wheat growing.
The average production OF whe a
in this country is at the low figure
Of 14.3 bushels an acre, which is
traction over seven bushels per per
son.
The consumption of wheat in the
United States amounts to 6 IL bush
els year for each person. This
leaves half bushel per person, o.
