From information received from in
quiry the farmers of Adair county will
put in the largest crop this season than
ever before. They are needing the in
junction of the President of the
United States and every foot of tilable
land will be cultivated. About Co.
lumbia more Irish potatoes have been
planted than in any previous year,
and when the ground gets a little
warmer, all seed that brings some
thing to eat will be planted. At
present flour at the local mills is
quoted at $500 per cwt; at the butcher
shops fresh meets are from Is to %
cents per pound, butter is selling on
the market at Is cents per pound, eggs
80 cents per dozen, and every thing
else that you eat too high for poor
mans pocket kook. Is it not time to
cultivate the soil?.

boarding gold in 1907 caused the
great panic of that year. Hoarding
food in 1917 is keeping the prices up,
and would cause food panic were it
not for the fact that there is as much
money as food. Every man who gets
alarmed at the unusual prices, and
buys up more food than he needs just
because 'it might go higher" helps
to raise the prices and keep them
there. Food spectators may be
causing much of the unnecessary high
prices, but ''panicky" buyers are help
ing things along, to the delight of the
said spectators. Don't buy more
than you need; the war cannot affect
the soil, nor the rains, nor anything
like that. Just as much can be raised
this year as any other year. And
when food spectators find that people
are not foolish enough to buy out all
they have at high prices for fear that
there might be food shortage, then
prices will come down.-Larue County
Herald.
