Three Times as Many Gardens

Washington, The gardening campaign has resulted in the planting of more than three times the usual number of gar dens in the United States, with the prospect that their produc- tion will reach the total value of S350. .00o. .000, according to an es- mate made last night by Charles Lathrop Pack, president of the National Emergency Food Gar den Com mission.
 South Dakota is credited with having increased the umber of it's gardens 35 per cent. the best showing to be made by any State.
 Tennessee's percentage in crease is given as 800. The only States listed as having failed to double their gardens are Mon tana, Idaho, Utah, Alabama, Texas and Missouri.

One Mother S Sacrifice

Here is the prize winning letter lin the contest, What I Would Sacrifice for My Country" which was held by the American Maga- zine, The writer says:
 What would 1 sacrifice for my country? That question is in the past tense with me. 1 have already sacrificed for my coun try. What? Whom? With the exception of two others who have an equal share in my affections, I have sacrificed the dearest thing on earth to me-my first : born son.
 He went away this morning. half laughing, half crying, he started on a 800 mile journey to the recruiting station on the coast, there to enlist in the navy; to give up his school life, his home life, even the thought of marriage-should such thing strike his youthful fancy-to serve his country for the next seven years.
 He is just 19, this boy of mine. Six feet of brave, clean, Ameri- can boyhood. We have played together, danced together, laughed together, and occasional ly cried together all his 19 years He has been my chum, my play mate and my dear child. 1 was very young When 1 married and he came to me and, being one of those unorthodox women who believe that fun, sympathy and the practice of entering into the spirit of youth will hold one's children when preaching and long faces fail, 1 have held my boy and made home the brightest spot to him today I gave him. Can one do more for ones country ?"

Rather No Bill Than $2 Minimum fo
 Wheat

Wheat
 The Germans persist In the war because of the junkers.
 The junkers are mostly the prosperous hog and grain raisers and land owners of East Prussi ;. They are the most reactionary in the empire
 On Saturday a small group in the United States Senate, in tear of the American wheat growers and in order to incur their favor. Insisted on fixing minimum price of S2 per bushel fer wheat.
 Even at the present prices of everything else, the American farmer car make a good profit now with wheat at S1.25.
 The amount of S2 for wheat was favored by Gore and a group of other middle west senators.
 The real friends of the bill were so nearly worn out by the fight that has been made against it all along that they permitted this section to be incorporated.
 The only sensible thing to do is to give the president of the United States the power to fix the prices of such articles, as he may from time to time see fit.
 He can use this power at his own discretion.
 If S2 is to be the normal price for wheat, corn should be s .50 a bushel and cotton p cents a pound.
 If S2 is to be the price of a bushel of wheat, all the produ- cers of other commodities will gauge their prices accordingly. and the result will be that the American consumer will be at the starvation point unless his salary is doubled or unless his earning power is doubled.
 Every southern senator and every eastern senator and mem bers of the House of Representa tiyes ought to fight this last mi quitous effort. Rather than for the food control bill to start with this standard. let's have none.
 The entire bill might be aban- doned and a simple act, giving the president authority to fix prices on any commodity he sees fit, passed. This can be done, we are sure.
 Many members of the Con gress of the United States seem to have utterly lost all sense of proportion and all common sense. The body seems to be sterile when it considers any construc- tive legislation.
