BERMUDA pg- M2hti.
WASHINGTON, May 11.-Consul
department of agriculture of Bermu
da has issued a leaflet for general dis
tribution throughout the colony. urg-
ing on the farmers the necessity of
growing larger quantities of food for
home consumption. II says in part:
THE government is most anxious
that farmers and others realize the
importance under present conditions
of increasing local food supplies The
high prices of imported foodstuffs.
which are likely to be still further in
creased in the future, add very great
ly to the cost of living and at the
present time 1t is a patriotic duty for
all to do their utmost to insure the
practice of economy in every depart
ment of life.
Heretofore the farmers of. the col
ony have depended too much on i'm
ported and too little on homegrown
foods. The present aim of every far
mer should be to produce as much
food for his family and livestock as
he can grow with economy, and to
have a surplus to sell. BY so doing he
can greatly reduce his own cost of
living and at the same time lessen the
colony's dependence on imported
foods The high cost of imported
foodstuffs should increase the demand
for local grown foods, and a market
would seem to be assured. especially
for potatoes, both Irish and sweet,
and pigs"
