production, promises to be more Sc
rious than heretofore. The local de-
mand will not be materially greater
and IL great quantities of food pro-
ducts are thrown on the local mar
kets at one time. there may result a
total decentralization of those markets
temporarily, with comparatively low
prices. until the glut could be re-
lieved by the shipment to other
points. This generalization would
probably only be local and tempo
rary so that when such a community
would begin to ship such commodi-
ties back in, it is liable to have to
pay war prices for them.
The only proper protection both
to the farmer and the community Is
proper storage arrangements. 1t Is
conceivable. of course. that these
would not have to be used some sea
sons at all as there may be condi-
tions under which 1t will be to the
farmers advantage to sell at harvest
ing time, but such conditions are the
exception rather than the rule, and
the only safe proposition to the
farmer is TO be prepared to store
1t would be we'll, of course, to ar
range to store all foodsAiffs that will
Keep without material loss. The
principal ones, however. are wheat,
potatoes and other root crops, cab
bage and cured meats. In the main
the expense of providing proper
storage arrangements will be small.
Many farms will already be equipped
with granaries. cellars. smoke houses,
that provide ample room in which
the various crops mentioned above
can be stored. On others there are
buildings already standing that car
be converted into granaries. meat
houses. etc. and cabbage and pota-
toes aud other root crops can be
buried in the ground. An article
dealing with The best methods OF
keeping such vegetables in the

this bulletin, and information as TO

tatoes can he had on application to

FACULTY MEMBER OF
COLUMBIA U. RESIGNS

NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-As an after
math OF the recent expulsion from
the faculty Of Professors Cattell and
Dana because OF their pacifst agita-
tion, Prof. Charles A. Beard has for
maIly resigned as a member OF the
faculty Of Columbia University.
His resignation was accompanied
by a rather caustic letter In which
he charged that "the university Is
really under the control OF a small
and active group Of trustees, who
have no standing in the world of ecu-
cation, who are reactionary and
visionAlly in politics, narrow and
medieval in religion"
'T cannot express my astonish-
ment," continues the letter, that
America, OF all countries, has made
the status OF the professor lower
than that OF the manual laborer, who,
through his union. has at least some
voice in the terms and conditions OF
his employment"

Thousands upon thousands of trucks
should today be re-equipped with Nobby
Tread Pneumatic Tires.
Every mile that certain trucks run On
solid tires represents definite, distinct, and
unnecessary loss of money.
We urgently advise the truck user to
study his distinct field d-the conditions under
which his truck operates.
twill then certainly repay him to discuss
these conditions with any United States
truck tire dealer or our nearest service
branch. He will be advised of the possibility
of using this United States Pneumatic Tire
on trucks that should use pneumatic tires.
If his truck should be equipped with
'Nobby Tread Pneumatics, he will Be
told so.
If he should stick to solid truck tires, he
will be told so.

There are two kinds Of motor trucks now
employed IN transportation work. One class
unfortunately cannot use pneumatic tires.
One class can! nd
To the fortunate class who can, the
proper pneumatic truck tire stands for re-
markable conservation IN gasoline and oil
consumption and actual conservation of the
very life of the truck itself.
Spwred on by the national need for con-
servation Of time, energy, and materials, and
the relief of traffic congestion, the United
States Tire Company has placed upon the
market its wonderful Nobby Tread Pneu-
matte Truck Tire.
This Is the same pneumatic truck tire
that the United States Tire Company has had
IN constant practical use for test purposes on
its own trucks for years.
Every test that actual use can give has
been given the fNobby Tread Pneumatic
Truck Tire.
This Nobby Tread Pneumatic Truck
Tire has proved that it will stand up under
the heavy usages of truck service, increase
the life of the truck, and reduce gasoline and
oil consumption to the minimum.
