was long held by the English, and CEN

BERMUDA IN FOOD CRUSADE
government Of Island Colony Urges
Farmers Not 10 Rely Further on
Imported Supplies.

United States Consul Carl Il. LOOP
at Hamilton, says: The department
OF agriculture of Bermuda has issued
leaflet for general distribution
throughout the colony, urging on the
farmers the necessity of growing larger
quantities of food for home Consump-
ton. 1t says in part:
THE government is most anxious
mat farmers and others realize the
Importance under present conditions Of
increasing local food supplies. The
nigh prices Of imported foodstuffs.
which are likely to be still further in
creased in the future, add very great
ly TO the cost of living, and at the
present time it IS a patriotic duty for
ak 10 do their utmost to insure the
practice Of economy in every depart
niant of life.
heretofore the farmers of the col
ony have depended too much on i'm
ported and too little on homegrown
foods. The present aim Of every farm
er should be to produce as much food
for his family and live stock as he can
grow with economy, and TO have a sur
plus to sell. BY so doing he can great
ly reduce his own cost of living and
at the same time lessen the colony's de-
pendenCe on imported foods. The high
cost of imported foodstuffs should in
crease the demand for local grown
foods, and a market would seem to
be assured, especially for potatoes,
