WADE'S LETTER

Following is the weekly letter issued by Commissioner of Agriculture Wade, which is of interest at the present mo- ment:
 Food is the most important asset to the successful termination of war History shows that more wars have been lost at the point of starvation than by the sword Our country is at war and we must realize from the beginning that a well fed nation will be victorious and Q starved nation is doomed to defeat, great privations and distress. Do not idle away your opportunities, but get busy now, utilizing all your spare time produc- ing everything you can to feed yourself and to contribute your part to the ulti- mate success of the nation. This appeal is not only to the farmers and the com mon laborers, but the dignitary as well. Lay aside your dignity and be producer or shoulder rifle and answer your countrys call. Are you a jelly fish or a patriot? If the red blood of patriotism flows through Your heart, you will either become a producer or a fighter.
 Tn the broad field of battle
 In the bivouac of life,
 Be not like dumb driven cattle,
 Be a hero in the strife.''
 The high prices and scarcity of food products at present make it imperative that we begin at once to increase produc- tion. One of the first things to begin with is garden vegetables and potatoes. Such products can be matured in the shortest period of time and should be grown in abundance Sweet potato plants can be had now at $150 per thousand. If set now the vines will furnish cuttings for additional acreage within a very few weeks. Cuttings may be sets from now until July, but the earlier the better.
 The Irish potato is one of the coun- try's best food crops. It is rather late for spring planting, but a fall crop can and should be produced The culls from the spring crop when harvested may he spread in a cool, dry place. After they have seasoned about three weeks, they should be spread in cool, damp place until germination begins. They can be cut and planted in moist fertile soil ard a splenedid fall crop may be expected. The fall crop is not hard to keep over winter and makes ideal seed for the fol- lowing spring.
 It is estimated that the wheat crop will be 50000,000 bushels short as compared with last year. It will be necessary to increase the corn crop in order to pre- vent bread shortage, when the effect of the wheat shortage is added to the pres ent high price of flour. By all means increase your corn crop, using the best seed at your command. Plant velvet beans, peanuts and cowpease in abund- ance. They can be used as food or con- verted to meat through live stock,
 Increase VOLT poultry, hogs and cattle by better care and breeding. Increase the supply of meat by producing larger and better animals. This can be done by growing more feed and better feeding
 Every idle man and every idle day is a loss to you and your country Work fight or starve. It is up to you.

Coining Ideas Into Cash

Anne Walker, in the Pictorial Review. A woman living in the southwest found the inspiration for money making at a moving picture show. The entrance to ond floor of a business block, was through a large. square halK One warm night last spring she noticed that, as the audi ence poured out of the picture theatre | it scattered to the various ice cream parlors and drugs torres in search of cold drinks. Her own throat was dry from
 an hour spent in the badly ventilated theatre.
 This woman had less than $50 in the | bank, and was working in a and 10-cent store for $4 a week, which meant that each week she must draw a little on her
 savings. So she was looking about des- perately for some means of adding to her
 income The thirsty audience gave her
 the great idea
 1 The next evening she went back to see
 the manager of the theatre. She asked 1 him if he would permit her to sell lem | onade in the square hall leading to the auditorium. She would pay rent for the | space or share the profits with him. As the woman was very much in earnest he
 finally agred to rent her a corner in tho i hall for $3 week. And she must clean up all the mess.
 The woman drew on her smal fund to 1 hire helper one day. He moved to the | opera house the one good table she had ! in her home, screen, chair, some tea
 towels and two pails. At the store whei e
 she worked she bought a dozen glasses ! at 30 cents. Her chief expenditure was
 for pressed-glass punch bowl. A box of
 lemons and a bag of sugar completed her purchases.
 Her family herlooms included silver soup ladle and really handsome cen terpiece trimmed with lace. She dressed l herself in a neat wash frock. with a dainty white aporn and, while other peo- pie were eating their suppers, she went
 to the opera house and made her lemon ade The table looked most attractive
 with it's punch bowl, glasses. lace center
 piece, and vase filled with flowers.
 The first evening she sold about 4o
 glasses. The next evening her trade was
 even better. At the end of the week she
 had paid for her rent, her equipment, and 1 had nearly s profit. All summer she
 worked in the store by day and at the
 theatre by night. By fall she was serv- ade.
 come to admire her pluck, saw bigger
 possibilities in her plan. He advised her | to make a trip to the nearest city and
 secure the privilege of selling lemonade,
 candy, and gum in such moving picture 1 houses as offered the necessary space. A. 1 young cousin now runs the original stand in the home town. The woman who turned practical idea to account, is the active partner of the man who once smiled
 in pitying fashion at her untried plan.
