CHANCE FOR THE FARMERS.

In HOUSEWIVES fret about the high cost Of
" everything In the markets right now, but stu
dents OF economies are thinking more about
what prices are likely to be at this time next year.
kvhsn unless we have unusually large crops from
n0 harvests OF the summer, will be face to face
with semifamine in this rich, fertile and peaceful
nnuntry.
The Manufacturers Record, Of Baltimore, one of
khe countrys most important journals and an au-
fhoriN OF the first grade upon such matters, has
started movement to bring about the planting of
as large an acreage possible next year, especially
In the south, where the Records influence is great
est In remarkably strong editorial article print
nd last week the Record after pointing out that the
present high prices are due entirely to the pro-
0ounced falling off in the yield of all the important
krops this year, said:
No embargo on foodstuffs is feasible or pos
nble. No reduction in the cost OF foodstuns

last; and distressing as the situation may be.
ana as much deprivation In foodstufs as may
be brought about for millions of people there
is only one possible solution of the problem
- and that is through enlarged crops next year.
That would only save us from famine condi-
lions. Large crops for several years will be

stress upon this matter to bring it too
earnestly to the attention of the whole coun-
try in order to secure the cooperation OF bus-
- ness men with farmers that a greater acreage
may be put Into the production Of grain and
n 1t is to be hoped that the farmers of West Vir-
.glnia will take every possible advantage of the ex.
listing conditions and plant as extensively as posi-
slble They are assured of top notch prices for all
they can raise for, the Record points out before
the next grain crop is produced the country in all
probability will be swept absolutely bare of wheat
and corn and other other grains. We SHALL there
fore, go into the next crop under conditions
that would guarantee high prices even if we could
be absolutely sure that the crop of 1917 would ex.
coed the unprecedented yield of 1915 Therefore,
under the very best conditions we cannot hope for
