BIGGER CROPS

John IL Rich, district chairman of
the Ninth federal reserve bank, Min
neapoiis, is urging the farmers of
tHat district, which includes practi-
ealiy the whole northwest, to take
advantage of the world food situation
by adding to their crops next year.
Mr.. Rich points out the fact that over
one third of the farming property in
Mlnne8ots and North and South Da-
kota is not cultivated, leaving about
50, 600 900 acres unimproYed.
Plant more potatoes and corn.
raise more livestock" is the advice
OF the district chairman to the far
mers. That they will be amply re-
paid for their extra efforts is obvious
and the suggestion of Mr.. Rich is a
good one With practically the en-
tire world calling for more food, a
situation que principally to She great
conflict in Europe where the men
have deserted the farm for the battle
field, ii is apparent that the Ameri-
can farmer will be able to dispose of
the additional crops and livestock
with fair profit returned.
MI Rich presents the following
figures 10 show what the increases he
suggests would mean:
An extra acre Of potatoes planted
on one farm will mean a winter sup
ply OF potatoes for so families.
An extra acre of corn on each farm
will mean gain of S5.50e 900 in total
pr fits.
Ten additional hogs on each north
west farm will mean a gain OF $780,
100000 in total farm products.
I A few additional sheen on each
northwest farm will mean corres-
ponding gain.
with demand for the additional
crops and livestock assured, the only
problem facing the farmer would be
the necessary capital to provide for
the increase in acreage and herds.
Wise bankers will doubtless realize
the opportunity and will not be slow
in advancing credit to the farmer cap
able of so increasing the production
OF his land 1t is to be hoped that the
farmers Of other communities will be
brought 10 a realization OF the ad-
9antaees and follow the advice. Of the
district chairman. World conditions
are rost favorable to America and
an early peace would have little effect
on the demand for foodstuffs because
the spring work necessary to produce
normal crops in European farming
districts has been greatly curtailed
by the shortage of labor. This, to-
gether with the admitted shortage of
food in all sections, will insure
market for the American products at
price levels that will be very favor
able.

INCREASE IN BIG GAME

Denver, March 17.-There are
approximately 5000 elk, 1880 deer,
2a5 moose, 1850 mountain sheep, 872
bears, and $50 antelope in the nation
al forest of Wyoming according to
the 1916 census taken by the forest
service. This shows an increase Of
45 percent in elk. AZ percent in moose,
rs percent in antelope, one half of
one percent in bears. and a decrease
of 8 percent in mountain sheep, in the
.igures reported for 1915. The pro-
lection afforded these large game
animals on the state game preserves
lis considered responsible for these
increases by the district forester.

THE league has lost no less than $1,000

club owners may decide to vote for
discontinuance of the playing season.
Remedies suggested are the curtail-
ment of the player limit from seventeen

Griff, in a tanning bee this morning

true as the wonderful southpaw Pole last
ed but one and one-third innings against
the Nationals. Griff was so confident on
his wager that he started his regular
team against the Jungaleers. In the regu-

cards and George Dauss substituted

This youngster showed a great deal OF
stun, but timely wallops by Judge, John

OF the Nationals.
Coveleskie was no match for the Nation
ais, as he was far from the from that ne
has shown on past occasions and looked
like the easy bit for the Capital city
crew. johnson was loafing throughout
the entire game as the seven-run lead
piled up by the Nationas made the going
easy for the smokebar king.
Sammy Crane was again in the lime
light with his sensational fielding, as
his stop of Cobb's grounder in the nfth
inning was the best play that has been
seen on the local grounds this season
This lanky York yoUngster went over be-
hind second base and knocked down the
bail which in turn knocked him on his
feet, but he kept the speed merchant
from extra bases by his wonderful field
ing.
Ty Cobb put through two real base
blows today. In the second inning he hit
one to deep center field. but the fleet
footed Milan could not get in reach OF

The Tennessee flyer did brilliant piece
Of fielding Of it by holding the Georgian
to two bases. In the fifth he crashed one
