ORGANIZE TO BUY
CITY VEGETABLES
Woman's Democratic League
Will Preserve Them for
Soldiers Families.

Members Of the woman's National
Democratic League today are form
ing committees and making arrange
ments to launch a national campaign
for buying city garden produce. The
plan also includes conservation of the
national food crop, the education OF
women and children in home canning
work, and the relief of dependent
families of soldiers.
According to the plan which was
adopted after a meeting OF the league
in the Congress Hall Hotel last night,
the funds OF the District branch of
the league will be used to purchase
all available vegetables grown in the
back yards and on vacant lots in
Washington.
These vegetables and all the wind
fall crops from nearby counties will
be canned or preserved, and next win
ter food will be distributed among
the soldiers relatives. Canning and
drying exhibitions will be given, and
dependents of men in military service
will be employed to assist in the
work.
The suggestion was made before
the national officers and members of
the league by IIrs. Giles Scott Rafter,
vice president OF the central garden
committee and president of the Moth
ers' Congress and Parent-Teacher As
sociation OF the District. Mrs. Will
lam A. Cullop, national president of
the Women's National Democratic
League, and other officers of the or
ganization Immediately indorsed the
suggestion and speedy plans are be-
ing made this morning to launch the
campaign all over the country.
Another work which the league
will take up will be the farming of
100 acres of land in the vicinity of
Washington. The produce from these
farms will also be preserved and
given to soldiers families.

PROBE OF PRICES REVEALS NO
SHORTAGE OF FOODSTUFFS

The Congressonay authorized and paid for food price
PROBE result of soaring prices throughout the ma
ton, reported today.
The probers found:
That reports of food shortage, such disseminated
through the press, misleading"
That prices IN many cities Unusually high
That the have been compelled to resort to stctest
economy provide food"
That the sale of ordinary cuts of meats appear to have been
discontinued
That exhibiting frugaity than ever
before; the falling off in garbage collections this
That shipments of foodstufs abnormally held up,
and the food supply therefore abnormaly depleted"
That the element of speculation IN food products has been
of the potent factors increases In prices.
That shipments of foods belgerent countries have not
affected prices of potatoes and onions but that prices
these commodities scared with prices of other foods
That the food situation here merely part of the food
situation of the of the country
The conclusion reached that here just ground for
such prices of many products demanded of the
a this time"
The report recommends there is urgent need IN this
try for organization of comprehensive marketing machinery
which will put producing and consuming communities in trading
relations with each other and make possible sending of perish
able products directly from the point of production point of
use."
Municipal wholesale markets recommended.

IOWA FARMERS MODELLING
Whole state Turns Attention to In
tensIve Agriculture.

DIES MONIES, April 26.-Aroused to
the need of increasing the nations
food supply as q war measure, Iowa
today is resounding to the greatest
farming campaign in fits history.
Gov. w. L. Harding's special mes
sage to the legislature resulted in q
commission of farm experts being sp-
pointed to lead the movement for in
creasing and conserving the food
yield. The commission announced
that labor shortage was the most
threatening sign. Among the steps
It took to mobilize farm labor was q

and individual business men and
manufacturers are being urged to Co
operate by encouraging city dwellers
to help on farms during rush periods.

Moines are being planted under the
auspices OF a city gardening commits
sion. Railroads are considering seed
ing the soil along their right OF way.
while counties are taking up the ques-
ton OF cuItivating waste places along
public highways. The home garden
ing movement Is sweeping the State.
Suffragists. inspired by a special
plea from Governor Harding, are
planning to mobilize women for farm
labor and to engage in canning and
preserving. The home economics
movement, with emphasis on using
every table scrap and cutting out the
garbage waste, has taken on new life.
Tho State commission Is planning
to send a rlying squadron OF experts
through the State. urging farmers TO
their utmost efforts as a patriotic
duty.
Anticipating a long war. the com
mission called upon farmers to save
breeding animals, cut down losses
from animal diseases, put in more
poultry and more hogs and use better
seed.
Better marketing systems are 20
