LESS TALK AND
MORE ACTION NEEDED
II Talk WeulA Raise America .
Crop We WeulA Sure Break the
3ooords

recently about Increasing the sup
ply of food products, which is as it
should be, but what is more needed
is action. Much also has been writ
ten about the exhorbitant present
prices of food products for man and
beast. But when 1t comes to nam
ing real quick remedy, we have
heard or read but little Not with
standing some Of our National leg
islatOrs have voiced the idea of
hanging the spectators but that
is as far as that has gone. We are
promised that the food commission
is to do something as soon as the
red tape at Washington has been
duly respected. and they will un-
doubtedly accomplish good, But
the question naturally arises
when?
1t will take time to investigate
this proposition Nationally and in
the meantime the Spectators will
reap a great harvest and cause un-
told suffering throughout the land,
especially in the larger cities. The
fact that our National government
has taken the step. is proof that it
is a serious matter and National
one and being q national matter
makes it state matter AS such it
beh0oves every state in the Union
to take immediate action and not
sit idly by and wait for the results
of the National Food COMMISSIONS
investigation.
Each state may take independ-
ent action and yet cooperate with
the National Commission and by
so doing remedy almost at once the
speculative propositlonas and bring
down prices-of- FOOL stdHs t0 q feAs
enable basis and stil1 allow those
who through their foresight have
accumulated large stocks a fair
margin of profit.
We realize that it is easy enough
to find fault and growl, but it is an
entirely different matter to suggest
a PLAUSIBLE remedy. This article is
the result of the writer's conversa-
tion with our State Representa-
tive, Allyn Cole, who is father of
the idea to handle the food propOs-
itiOn through the Public Utilities
Commission, a commission orga-
nized and in position to do this
work at once and properly. The
plan as he outlines Is simple. 1t is
proposed to introduce q bill at the
next session of the state legislature
to cover this proposition and for
the sake of justice to every cons,lm-
er and dealer in the state we hope
the proper action will be taken.
AS before stated much comment
is heard relative to who is respon-'
sible for the high prices; In the
cities the spectators blame the
farmers and in turn the farmers
and other consumers blame the re-
tailers. The blame is not with the
farmers and neither is it with the
retailer. AS we view it. the specu-
latOr gets the long end of price, and
the retailer is merely "the goat

leRow Your OWN GARDEN SEED
Only Measure that viii Prevent a
Famine Of Garden Seeds Next
.s'- Year, Seed Men Say

Unless home gardeners come to
their own rescue and save their own
garden seed, the world faces a seed
famine for next year, warns the Ames
experiment truck crops man. Iowa
seed men themselves announce that
though they are trying hard to avert
a famine, the impending shortage de-
mands that every gardener get busy
and save his own seed. .'E
The shortage is due to the fact that
the seed supply of Deets, carrots. rad
ishes. spinach and many other crops
which we usually get from Europe,
has been cut Off. Moreover, the supply
grown here this year will be low on
account of the labor shortage 1t is
ordinarily impractical for the home
gardener to save his own seed, the
truck crops man points. out, since he
cannot do it as well as the seed man.
Yet this year it is a wise plan. In
very few cases will It be wise for a
gardener to attempt to save seed on a
commercial scale.
Peas are one of the first seed crops
that must be saved. Gather pods as

pan under shelter and allow to dry
thoroughly. Keep stirred to avoid
mold. When pods are dry, shell out
peas. put on tray with screen bottom
in a shallow layer so they will dry
thoroughly. Keep stirred once day
for several weeks When thoroughly
dry, put in container and store in
dry place. Radish seed is saved in
the same way. As soon as stalks
show many brown pods. gather and
dry same as speas. M.sttpee seed is
treated the SAME: Moisture is the
great enemy Of stored seeds.
1t is also urged thai itphX paintings
be- conserved by planting Just enough
and not too many seed. Information
on saving seed will be supplied by
the truck crops man at Ames.

CONSERVING OUR FOOD SUPPLY

Housewives know that canning and
other means Of saving food for winter
days does lot towards lowering the
grocery bill. Just at present we are
feeling the high prices more than ever
before. II the vast quantity. of food
produced last year had all been saved
the situation would now be much diff
ferent This Is true any year. The
food problem needs attention now.
Saving by. canning drying and prop
er storing are means Of solving the
situation
Crawford county is going to have
a campaign beginning June Is to
demonstrate the "Cold-Dack" method
of canning and other ways of saving.
A demonstration from the agricultural
extension department of Ames will be
in the county for two weeks and will
conduct about demonstrations in all
parts Of the county. Look for the one
nearest you. @&

ty leader and full information can be
