In the window of The Messenger
office may be seen curio that is well
worth attention, being a cone from the
sequoia, or giant redwood tree, of
California. The sequoia is the largest
and oldest living thing on the face of
this earth, scientists estimating that
some specimens are above 1000 years
old, while they tower into the sky to a
height of $50 feet and are over 35 feet
through at the base. The sequoia grows
nowhere else but in California. The
forests are limited in extent and are
the property of the United States gov
eminent. This cone is becoming off
spring of its great parent, being fifteen
inches long and five inches in diameter
and affords an interesting contrast
when compared with the largest variety
of pine cone The cone was presented
to the editor by Mrs. Rosamond Beebe
who brought it from California about
forty years ago.

TO ALL WHO CAN PRODUCE
OR SAVE FOOD

DR.. Beverly 7. Galloway, Assistant
to the Secretary of Agriculture, and
in charge of the departments emer-
gency measures for dealing with the
agricultural situation, has issued the
following statement:
1.-THE following letter issued by the
British Premier, David Lloyd George,
while addressed to the people of Eng
land, conveys advice distinctly appli-
cable to the United States and which
should be needed by everyone who
can do anything to produce food OF
save food from waste:
10, Downing Street,
Whitehall, S. W.,
Mar. 5, 1917.
Dear Sir,
We have now reached a crisis in
the war when to ensure victory, the
heroism of our armies at the Front
must be backed by the self-sacrifce
and tireless labor of everyone al
home. To this end the production Of
each quarter of wheat and oats, anC
of each bushel of potatoes is of vita
Importance. The work of the mex
few weeks must decide the harvest o.
the year; and in the nations interes
/ urge you, at whatever personal sac
rifce, to overcome all obstacles, tt
throw your fullest energies into the
work, and to influence and encourage
all who assist you, so that every pos
sible acre shall be sown.
The imperative demands of the wal
have made it impossible to avoid call
ing up men fit for active service, ever
though skilled in farming. AS far a!
possible this is being met by bringing
on to the land men and women from
other industries. They cannot be ex
pected to do work equal to that o.
men expert in agriculture; but there
is no time for delay and the Govern
ment is confident that farmers will
at once step forward and do all il
their power to utilize their services
to the best advantage.
The farmers of this country cal
defeat the German submarine ant
when they do so they destroy the las
hope of the Prussian.
Yours faithfully,
D. LLOYD GEORGE.
