ON THE AMERICAN
FARM.

Dean A. f. Woods ofs the depart
ment OF agriculture of the University
Of Minnesota sounds a call for
new kind Of patriotism among the
farmers Of the northwest. 1t has
10 do with increased soil productive
ness and better returns on live stock
investments. The call is "a peculiar
lv timely one and if il is needed
Dean Woods may look back from
his new Maryland post with a sense
Of pleasure that he sent it forth.
His argument is a sensible one.
There is a world food shortage due
TO impaired cereal and other crops.
The demands OF human foodstuffs
i'm the years Immediately ahead, if
not for all future time, will be
heavy and not easy TO meet unless
improved methods of farming in
this country are adopted. Scien-
tific farming and scientific feeding
are essential TO produce the great
est possible returns from the soil.
The burden of the demands will fall
upon this country, hence a special
reason why the American farmer
should make the most OF his nat
urally fertile acres.
II may be that the plea Of Dean
Woods will take on a peculiar force
not anticipated by him when he ut
tered Il. a much larger area OF the
world than hitherto, including the
United States, may be embroiled in
a contest of arms Whether or not
that unhappy fate is TO befaH civili-
cation. the farmers of this country
will make no mistake in undertake
ing extensive food preparedness. BY
doing SO they will benefit not only
themselves but a hungry world. 1t
revolts the normal human mind TO
contemplate what would be the
tragic result OF a worldwide war in
conjunction with world wide
shortage OF food supplies
The average American citizen
probably is inclined 20 think of
hand. that this country will be
amply able 10 FL its own larder and
