will take on an aspect entirely new to
American military science when train

by war department officials provide
for the application Immediately of ev-

done will be new even to men recently

The American training system prob
ably will follow to some extent that used
in Canada, where the instructors have
made every effort to reproduce as close
ly as possible conditions at the front.
Sections of trenches have been built
at the Canadian camps exactly duplicat-
ing important parts of the lines in
France held by Canadian troops. The
men are trained in extending these
works, running saps and erecting en-
tanglements to the accompaniment of
actual shell fire so as to harden their
nerve as we'll as their muscles.

Government To Take
Food From Farmers
IF the Prices Fall

The first step Of the government in
mobilizing the food resources Of the
United States will be to guarantee the
farmer against any possible loss in case
of overproduction or a sudden cessation
of demand on account of declaration
of peace.
This will be done by the passage OF
legislation, now being prepared, fixing
a minimum price on all articles of food
BY minimum is not meant a price at
which all articles must be sold, but the
price at which the government agrees
to take food off the farmers hands in
the event the market price falls lower.
1.-The general public does not yet real
ize the seriousness of the crop situa-
tion," said DR.. Stockbridge. Let me
give YOU some figures: In Europe 5O,-
900, 900 of people have been taken from
the consumers class to the producers
class by the war. Now these are prac-
tically added to the population of
America, so far as dependence on our
food supply is concerned. This fact is
Independent of the fact that the food
supply of Europe has been cut short.
as, for instance, in Belgium. where no
crops are raised 1t is independent, too.
of the fact that Europe's power Of pro-
duction is diminished because old men,
women and children must work the
crops.
with this increase in demand we are
face to face with the fact that the sup
ply is hardly so per cent what it was
a year ago. On March l this year there
were 700, 900. 900 bushels of wheat less
on the farms of the United States than
there were on the same day a year ago.
Winter wheat was 40 per cent of normal.
the potato crop was failure, so were
other crops.
This is not a temporary shortage.
1t will continue throughout this wear
at least, together with the increased de-
mand. And, in the event of an unto
ward season. next year the situation will
be not critical, but calamitous 1t seems
visionary to say so, but It is possible
that year from now the United States
will be nearer actual starvation than in
ever has been in its history"
To meet this situation, said Dr.
Stockbridge the Washington conference
turned to two main questions-increas-
ing the production of food crops and
conserving the food supplies.
THE necessity for quick action in
producing food crops must be realized -
he said. Armies may take a year to
raise, munitions may take a year: but
action on the food crop must be taken
within the next sixty days between
now and June 1, i'm other words, in
planting time.
ut was unanimously agreed that the
most effective means will be Iegisla,
tive action protecting the farmer who
raises food crops against possible loss
Uncle Sam says to him, BE patriotic
and raise food 1t is logical for the
farmer to reply, But I take all the

price in any event. The farmer will be
given the same rights as a munitions
manufacturer who contracts to sell his
product to the government at a fixed
price"

NEED IN THE WEST
Allies Hold Hard-Fought Mas

Must Always Be in Position
to Keep Enemy on Ground

BRITISH HEADQUARTERS IN
FRANCE, April 29.-Via London
Wholly informal but decidedly inter
esting conversations between British
and French flying corps officers as re-
CARDS the possibility of early American
participation in this fascinating phase
of the war have peen going on behind
the lines here.
Il is generally agreed that apart from
naval activity the flying service offers
the quickest opportunity for effective
military help from America against the
common foe, and the expectation is that
just as the aviation branch of the SER
vice proved so attractive to the young
men of both England and France, the
youth of America will be drawn toward
it.
Already plans are making to in
crease the number of Americans now
flying for France, while all the mem
bers of the British Royal Flying corps
are ready to welcome and aid in the
training of Americans in all the arts
of war flying. 1t is realized that the
United States army is not on a war
basis regarding machines, but 1T is I'M
derstood that both the British and
French services are prepared to fur
nish them temporarily. just as these
two services now exchange machines
as necessity demands.
MACHINES COMPLICATED.
America, Of course, is expected to
throw her organizing and manufactur-
ing ability into supplying their own
machines to her fiiers, but the modern
airp1ane. with its tremendous power
housed in very compact, very light
engine, with delicate instruments, I'M
erring balance and sensitive controls, is
~,
its construction is a matter Of months
Just now the single seat fighting
scout is the machine of the hour. Such
of fighting tactics-rolling, looping
nose diving, side-slipping.
1t is no unusual thing nowadays to
see pilot seemingly fall out of control
1000 feet or more. then ffatten out and
sail serenely away. The strain of this
maneuver is tremendous.
officers of the British flying corps say
that America must be prepared to pay
such a price, that she must remember
this when the losses begin to mount up.
She must understand, they point out,
that of these losses will come men
who will reflect glory upon her colors
and lend brilliance to the brighter pages
of her history.
1t is of course possible to train men
far from the battle field. They may be-
come proficient in every trick of flying
known to the science in this training
Their real service, however, only begins
after they have proved themselves "over
the line" The British have developed
brilliant fliers at their training grounds
in England, men who have mastered ev-
cry technical point of aviation and who
stand out clearly as potential leaders.

FERTILIZING NEW LAND FOR CORN

advise to use?
There are endless fertilizer combina-
tions which one might use. At the pres
ent time potash is so extremely high
that we hesitate to advise farmers to
use 1t, therefore 1t is probably better
for you to apply formula containing
or per cent nitrogen and about 9 per
cent phosphoric acid. This formula
should be used at the rate of 500 pounds
as a minimum for both corn and cot
ton. Five hundred pounds will likely
prove more profitable.
You may mix up equal parts of acid
