| these points in view, with the idea
that sound crop practices are to be
continued, and that other cereals,
notably rye, should supplement
wheat.
Fertilizer stocks are low and there
are prospects of high prices and act
ual shortage of seed unless the seed
stocks are carefully husbanded. The
country is producing more potash
and most of the fertilizer companies
will sell it. Acid phosphate is short
and the price is high, and nitrates
have doubled in prices because of
the demand for explosives.
Every farmer Is urged to save. his
own seed by selection from the best
producing strains of his own fields.
thus insuring supply known to be
suited to the region in which it has
been grown. Reliance should not be
placed on prospective supply of
imported seed, because the hazards
OF shipping may keep it out; or. on
the other hand, present high prices
may further stimulate the importa-
tion Of seed of low value.
A circular, No. rs, discussing these
Food Needs for 1918" and giving

THIS COUNTY MUST HELP
SUPPLY WORLDS FOOD NEEDS

To supply the estimated needs of
the United States, the allies, and in
part the neutral nations of Europe,
the farmers of the United States
must plant for next year about 238
million-acres of land to staple food
crops. This is % per cent more than
the 195 million acres which repre-
sent the 10-year average paintings,
and As per cent more than the large
acreage-227 millions of 1917.
Compared with 1917 these acreages
represent increases of 22 per cent
for winter wheat, Is per cent for all
wheat, 81 per cent for rye. and per
cent for oats. and decreases Of 6 per
cent for barley and per cent for
corn. Compared with the preceding
10-year average the proposed acre
ages represent 43 per cent for winter
wheat, per cent for spring wheat,
ia per cent for rye. per cent for
barley, 27 per cent for oats, and Z
z per cent for corn.
These estimates OF required acre
ages have been made by the United
States Department of Agriculture,
with due allowance for weather,
farm-labor supply, injury to crops by
insects and disease, and the produc-
tion of cereals by other nations, and
for other usual and extraordinary
conditions as far as they may be
seen.
The war has intensified a general
shortage of food products which has
been growing for several years, but
which this country has not felt until
the war made It plainly apparent.
To help solve the problem the de-
partment has not advocated any
startling changes, but has restated
the principles which It thinks are
sound for the present and the future.
These principles are: That each
community, as far as practicable,
should produce its own food and
feed; each community should in
crease the production OF non-perish-
able, products, such as wheat. rye,
beans and rice; sugar cane and sugar
beet production should be increased
in suitable localities; and the com
production of perishables
should not be increased except where
there are ample facilities for trans
portation and market. The recon-
mendatioaE for 1918 are made with

Firehies' Light.

The larvae of the fireflies are able
to produce glow and this has led
some to mistake them for glowworms.
In reality there are no real glowworns
in the United States. The source of
the glow in immature frefiies is not
known exactly. but it is believed that
some of the minute glowing organism
of the female insect may adhere To the
young. enabling them to give forth a
light of their own.
