BACKLOT GARDEN FEVER
HITS BISMARCK food
PREPAREDNESS CERTAIN


Food preparedness for Bismarck"
is being made certain by a more eX-
tensiye, intensive cultivation of back
yard and vacant lot gardens than
the city ever heretofore has known.
Every inch Of ground that will grow
a food plant is being pressed into
service. There will be no slackers
among the city farmers. Every one
will do his share, which will go a
long way toward removing from the
shoulders Of the big farmers-the
hope of the nation in our present
ordeal-the necessity of feeding this
city.
The Commercial club, Mayor Lucas
and other patriotic agencies are en-
dorsing and aiding the movement.
Scores of backlots already have been
spaded or plowed. Within a few
weeks it is anticipated there will not
be an idle strip Of land III the city.

which resulted in the police reserves
making several arrests, that a bill
would be introduced in the legislature
tomorrow to empower the city to
purchase food supplies and sell them

to the present high cost of living.

Onion Specials Arranged
Joseph Hartigan, city commissioner
of weights and measures, predicted a
material drop in the prices of potatoes
and onions before the end of the week.
It will be brought about, he said, as the
result Of relief in freight congestion
and the fact that virtually all of the
potato and onion. growing states of
the country now are entering the mar
ket. Railroads of fifteen states, Mr..
Hartigan asserted had arranged to
rush "onion specials" to this city.
Information furnished to him by
wholesale produce dealers, District At
torney Swami announced, indicated
that the farmers were responsible for
the Increase in the price of potatoes
and onions. In December, he said,
farmers were receiving $1.47 a bushel
for potatoes, double the price of De-
cember 1915.
Mr.. Swami declared there was no
justification for the increase in the
price Of poultry. There is no scarcity,
he said, and farmers are not charging
any more than last year. Vegetables
and other farm products, the district
attorneys investigators asserted they
learned, are being held In warehouses
along the New Jersey shore of the
Hudson river.
