EXCERPT FROM A LETTER
Received by the First State Bank
of Askov, From Sir George
Paish, London. Dated
March 81, 1917.

Il have been endeavoring to
form some sort of notion of the
worlds supplies of food both this
season and next, and have come
to the conclusion that if the
American people will continue to
help the world to get through
this time of great stress and
strain by (one) growing as much
food as possible and (two) them
selves consuming no more than
absolutely essential, the world
will weather thru, altho
the margin of safety will be very
slender. Would it be possible for
the ladies of America to start an
ECONOMY campaign for the bene-
fit of the women and children,
not of Belgium only but practi-
cally of the entire world, for it
is evident that many poor fami-
ly will not be able to buy food in
the coming twelve or eighteen
months in consequence Of it's
dearness and scarcity unless
those women who can afford to
pay high prices voluntarily deny
themselves and share the food
which Providence provides with
their poorer sisters? If they do
this, then the heart of the world
will beat with that mother-love
which is all powerful for good
and which will prevent the re-
currence of such disaster as
that now threatening the human
race.
"The need of humanity is
great.

The heart of America is also
great"

The great war has now pro-
crossed so far that not only the
warning nations, but the whole
world is threatened with a food
shortage, the consequences of
which will be so far reaching and
so disastrous that it can hardly
be imagined.
When harvest comes there will
be no food stores anywhere left
over. Europe cannot feed itself.
1t is imperative for us to help
our allies and all the neutral
countries as well. If the war
should end about August this
year it would also be our boun-
den duty to help the starving
people of the Central powers.
Last year we entered the Crop
year with 164,OOO,0OO bushels of
wheat carried over. We produced
4S2,OO0,0OO bushels of winter
wheat and 158,OOO,OOO of spring
wheat, making a total supply of
804,000,OO0 bushels. This year
practically no wheat will be car
ried over, the winter wheat yield,
according to forecast, will be only
430,OOO,0OO bushels and may be
less; consequently we will need
an enormous crop of spring
wheat. 1t is very doubtful that
the wheat shortage can be made
up. If prices on staples advance
to higher levels than are already
reached, the suffering in our own
cities will be great, too alarming
to contemplate.
We cannot produce wheat to
advantage in this part of the
country; but we can do our mite
in helping out the world under
this great crisis by intensively
cultivating all our available land
by planting it into potatoes,
beans, onions, rutabagas and the
like. Every little corner should
be utilized, even that vacant lot.
If you have more than you can
cultivate. yourself, give it to your
boy or girl. The outlook is that
the truck he or she can produce
will be worth an extra hundred
dollars.
Your boy may make enough to
buy a Ford, and your daughter
may be able to buy that piano, or
if they would rather, let them
invest it in Uncle Sans bonds.
But the point is that the world
needs the food to avert very
alarming disaster. Your boy and
your girl will be serving their
country and the world in general
because what the world needs
most of all is food. Act now
while planting time is here; pro-
crastination may prove to be the
cause of unthought of suffering.

When to Plant Vegetables in the
Home Garden-SOil Require
mentS.

The garden specialists of the
United States Department of
Agriculture divide vegetables in
to two classes warm tempera-
ture' and cold temperature"
vegetables. When peach and
plum trees are in blossom, they
say, it is time to SOW in the open
ground such seeds as lettuce,
radish, parsley, beets, turnips,
cabbage, carrots, peas, and
onions. The wrinkled peas should
not be planted until later, as
they are more liable to rot in cool
ground than are the smooth vari-
cites. When the apple trees
bloom, it is time to plant the
heat-loving vegetables, such as
cucumbers, beans, sweet corn,
pumpkin, and squash. This is an
old but excellent rule.
The quickest crop to mature
is the radish. Lettuce, turnips,
peas, beets, and beans usually re-
quire from 6 to 8 weeks, corn
from II to Is weeks, and pota-
toes from Is to Is weeks to ma
ture.
Lettuce is to the garden what
the hay crop is to field always
needed, and gives some of the
best returns. A rich sandy loan
with sufficient nitrate to stimu-
late leaf growth and intensity
the chlorophyll or deep leaf COL
or of the plant, and a sufficiency
Of soft water keep the crop crisp
and fresh. Much of the same
plan is practiced with cabbage,
except that it does not require
so much water.
Beans do not require very rich
soil and it is safe to plant them
on the very poorest patch. Snap
beans may be grown in rows be-
tween the orchard trees.
The Lima beans require a rich,
moist soil, but does not seem to
deprive the land of it's produc-
tiveness. Lima beans have been
grown on the same fields in Cali
fornia for many years.
Cucumbers, squashes, and mel
ons require rich soil, and the GU
cumber profits by the application
of fresh horse manure. Sheep
manure will hurry plants along
more rapidly than most chemical
fertilizers.
The specialists believe that if
the general principles they have
outlined are followed, it will be
profitable for almost anyone to
plant his idle acres this season.
They point out that even where
the monetary value of the crops
raised in the backyard garden is
not important, the gardener and
his family must credit to the
patch the health and enjoyment
they gain from this outdoor oc-
cupation. They point out that
from the community point of
view it is the duty of every home
owner to keep his place orderly
and attractive. The most profit
able way of getting rid of a
patch of weeds in the back yard
is to cultivate it and plant it to
some valuable crop, the orderly
character of which will add much
to the comeliness of the home
grounds.
Gardening is an old, old story.
1t is related that nearly 20 CEN
turies ago Phny the Elder
summed it up in a sentence of
just six words: Dig deep: ma
nure we'll; work often"
