practically throughout the world there
is no risk in the near future of ex-
cessive production, such as sometimes
has resulted in unremunerative prices
to producers. This Is particularly
true Of the cereals and of peas, beans,
cowpeas, soy beans, and buckwheat.
In view of the world scarcity of food,
there is hardly a possibility that the
production of these crops by the far
mers of the United States can be too
great this year, and there is abundant
reason to expect generous price re-
turns for all available surplus.
The most effective step that may
be taken to increase the production
of these crops is to enlarge the acre
age devoted to them in the regions
where they are grown habitually.
This expansion of acreage should be
to the limit permitted by available
good seed, labor, and equipment The
placing of too great emphasis on
production in new regions is inadvis
able, since the introduction into a
farm operation of crop not usually
grown frequently involves practical
difficulties not easily foreseen nor
quickly surmountable.
Taking the winter-wheat territory
as whole, winter killing has occur
red to an extent very much greater
than usual. This obviously, if not
compensated for in some way, will
mean a material reduction in the SUD-
plies Of our most important bread
cereal. Where winter wheat has been
damaged sufficiently to justify the
abandonment Of fields it should by
all means be replaced by spring
planted food crops, preferably small
grains or corn. The acreage of win
ter wheat seeded last fall is estimated
at 4O,08O,000, or only per cent above
that of the preceding year (39,2O3,-
600 acrcs), and about one eighth more
than the average for the preceding
fivc-year period (35,724, ,OOO). The
condition Of this crop, as shown by
the depart ment in it's report of April
7, is more than 25 per cent below the
average condition April 1 for the
past 10 years. This condition fore
casts a production this year nearly
52,000,000 bushels less than the crop
of 1915.
Climatic requirements of spring
wheat during the last few weeks of it's
growth render it more risky crop
than others to plant outside the areas
in which its production has been
proved to be successful, so that it is
not recommended for regions where
oats or corn will be more certain to
produce satisfactory yields. In the
northern sprng-wheat States, how
ever, where old ground has been re-
served for flax, and seed wheat is
available, flax ground may well be
sown with spring wheat and new land
broken for flax where such land is
available. In the Pacific Northwest,
where the seed supply Of well-adapted
varieties is adequate, a considerably

increased acreage of spring wheat ap-
pears probable. The spring-wheat
acreage of 1916 .17,956,OOO acres)
was more than per cent less than
that of 1915 19,l61,0O0 acres), and
more than 4 per cent less than the
preceding five year average (18,799,-
900 acrcs).
Good Seed Wheat Necessary.
The minimum quality of seed grain
that should be relied upon under ex-
listing conditions is very difficult
point to decide. in general, it is not
wise to risk planting seed wheat
showing less than rs or 80 per cent
termination, nor that weighing less
than so pounds to the bushel. If the
land is prepared thoroughly and
otherwise is suitable, the use of
spring wheat weighing as low as 45
pounds per bushel, if it shows good
termination, may be advisable where
better seed is lacking.
The Usefulness of Oats and Barley.
If land intended for spring wheat
can not be put into good condition
early enough for seeding, oats or bar
ley can be substituted to good advan-
tage in the sections where there crops
are known to do we'll. Barley can
be relied on in the proved areas of
Wisconsin,, Minnesota, Iowa, the Dako-
tas, and Montana, while oats have a
much wider range. The ease with
which barley may be substituted di-
rcctly for wheat in human food and
its usefulness to replace wheat mill
ing by-products as food in the pro-
duction of the milk supply, renders
its abundant production important.
Barley, where it succeeds, yields a
larger weight of food per acre than
any other small grain crop. With an
abundance of oats and barley avail
able, much closer milling of wheat
than at present could be practiced,
II necessary, without cndangering the
milk supply which constitutes so i'm
portant an element in the dietary Of
consumers.
Large Acreage of Rye Planted.
The place Of rye under present con-
ditions is an important one. The crop
this year should be harvested and uti-
lizcd with more than the usual care.
Considerable acreage is planted in
some sections for plowing under in
the spring for green manure Where
conditions are suitable part of this
acreage might we'll be held for har-
vcsting, and followed with a suitable
summer or fall crop for plowing in
later.
Buckwheat for Late Planting.
Buckwheat may be planted later
than any similar crop, and often does
well on old meadows or waste land
that can be broken after the more
exacting crops are planted. In some

Some Common Sense

Here's bit of common SENSE that every fam
lily in Richmond ought to take ITO heart and prac-
tice. Not all of us can raise potatoes, but all OF
us can regulate their use in the dining room. Or
in other words, start at tO cut down the con-
sumption and waste Of food Tia your homes.
1t has come to our knowledge that many fam
lilies of Richmond that can we'll afford to buy all
the provisions needed have clt down materially
the weekly consumption. Thi.se families contain
some of the highly educated lpersons of the COM
munity. They see what the future will be. In
other families that perhaps cannot afford now
to maintain the same standard of living which
they formerly enjoyed, no effort, we have OBJ
served, is being made to cprtai food purchase
and consumption.
Which of the two classe mentioned is using
the best business judgment land foresight? Which
is the most patriotic? Which is willing to fore
go pleasure now to avoid real suffering later?
Before you answer, we want: you to read what the
Tribune says:
"The immediate way to k',ep production and con
family can regulate the us, of potatoes house

Eat less now and have more later Take an inch
off the waist line and hare sustain the de-
creased waist line later. Redur and strong Save
and keep from hunger. The. seven lean years may be
ahead"
The profligate the nelrsighted, the MASTERS,
and the squanderers will keep on eating just as
much food which they might save without i'm
pairing their health and these very same persons
will be the ones that will howl the loudest when
food becomes scarce in thee next year.

Our Fighting Men

America is melting pot The sons OF every

The Newark News prints an editorial that will
make every American sit up and take notice.
Newark has large foreign born population. The

HENRY ]. COBURGER
VETERAN Of POLICE
DEPARTMENT, DIES

Henry J. Coburger, a veteran of
the Pensacola police department, ex-

death terminated a lengthy illness,
and occurred at his late home, No.

more than thirty years in the city's
service with never q discreditable

Mr.. Coburger came to Pensacola
in 1877 from New Orleans, where he
was born nineteen years earlier. A
resident of Pensacola for forty years,
and for more than thirty years con-
nected in some capacity with the city
departments, he was a man known
by all. He entered the city's employ
when w. D. Chipley was mayor, and
served under more than dozen ex-
ecutives. His first employ was
with the volunteer fire department,
and when Chipley was mayor, he
was transferred to the police depart

ministrations he never had the least
iota of charge against him, and had
the distinction up to the time of his
death, of being the only man COM
