furnish the nutrients more cheaply
than potatoes at $2.40. The conclus-
ion should not be drawn from this
that these foods can entirely replace
potatoes but that they can replace the
potatoes to some extent.
When potatoes r $2.40 a bushel,
carrots will furnish the nutrients as
cheaply at 2 cents a pound, sweet po-
tatoes at 6 cents, turnips at III cents
and ruta bagas at IL cents.
Even dried fruit will in some cases
furnish the nutrients mor cheaply
than potatoes. For instance, when
potatoes are $2.40 a bushel, dried ap-
pies furnish the nutrients as cheaply
at 17k cents a pound, dried prunes
at 15h cents, figs at 1871 cents,
raisins at 20% cents and dried april
cots at 16% cents.
By considering prices and food val
ues it is possible to in many cases
make partial substitutions in place of
the foods ordinarily used when the
prices go high and thus provide the
necessary nourishment and variety at
a less cost.-R. E. Remington, Food
Dept. N. D. Agri. College.

WHERE WILL IT END?

The constantly soaring prices OF everything that enters into the economic
life of the nation forebodes a condition that is sad to contemplate.
With the cos of living for the average family practically doubled during
the last two years. and wages during the same period remaining practically
unchanged, the situation is a desperate n for thousands, yes millions, of
wage earners, who eve under the old order of things, we're barely able to
provide the actual necessities for themselves and families.
The problem is n that demands hasty solution. While commissions are
investigating the causes for the high cost of living, holding legislative in
vesigaGons,, etc, myriads of the nations people are facing actual want and
starvation, because they are charged more for what they eat and ear than
they re paid for what they produce.
A revolution of the hungering masses is as inevitable as the rising sum-
unless the situation is relieved. There can be n o alternative. No human
being will starve, if there is any way Of securing food, W if he has to
resort to murder.
With the United States engaged in what will likely prove the most ser
ios wr in the history of the nation, ar industrial revolution would be too
horrible to contemplate. 1t would mean nor than mere retibuhon for
those money-mad fends who gamble in the necessities of life of their fell
low-men. It would spell national disaster, perhaps of a magnitude never
witnessed in the civilized world.
1t IS a fearful situation, that W of the prosperous west do not fully ap
precate.

PRESIDENT WILSON ON CENSORSHIP.

The Courant is charitable enough to believe that Editor Matt johnson
of the Omemee Herald read our last weeks issue hurriedly. There "a be
NJ other explanation of his characterizng the acceptance of Senator Sand
sroms challenges as "dodgng" The senator's W. letter O the subject
in this issue is sufficient refutaton. Nh. Sandstrom apparently has had no
difficulty in understanding the acceptances, which are as thoroughly specific
a could be stated in the Kings English. When the Courant stated that it
had been authorized to state that the challenges were accepted "unconditon-
ally" upon Mr. Sandstroms Gov terms and conditions" W e fail to under
stnad where the charge of "dodgng" is merited, as far as the Courant is
concerned. The Herald comments on the fact that there is n "signed" &C.
ceptance to the challenges. Why not also demand that the acceptances be
sworn to, witnessed and acknowledged before a notary public? Such qub-
"the Courant is demanding "a la Jim Corbett) that Sandsrom should make
a record as a debater by taking O. other men and other issues before presum-
ing to take OF it's champions with the questions submitted" This statement
of the Herald is sadly barren of truth. The challenges were merely accept
ed in the same order in which they were issued. Mr.. Sandstroms apollo
gists seen more concerned vel these proposed debates than Mr.. Sandstrom
himself.
