THE NECESSITY OF sILOs

New Orleans, La, April 20-Ad
vices received here from all parts Of
the South indicate that the food con
servation movement inaugurated by
the Federal government at the be-
ginning of the war will result in the
construction Of a tremendous mum.
Der of silos during the approaching
summer and early fall months.
It is being impressed on farmers
as never before the conservation OF
stock food means the conservation
of food Off the people. If other
foods can be substituted for stock, it
is pointed out, more grain will be
left for use in feeding the people.
Land can be hastily prepared for
raising silage and othe forage crops
at small expense.
1.-THE South Must Feed Itself or 90
Hungry"
These stirring words uttered last
week by Hon. Carl Vrooman, Of the
Department of Agriculture, Wash
ington, at the Cut-Over Land Con-
ference Of the South, in this City,
have aroused = determined spirit
to get away from the
old one-crop idea. and information
in the hands Of state agricultural
bureaus show plans on foot for the
growing Of : great excess Of food
crops in the South this year over
what has been the case before.
In this connection the Practical
Farmer, published at Philadelphia,
carries in its current issue a highly
interesting editorial showing that

tally 30 at the present time, and that

chance.
/, After pointing out that feeds and
larm labor are both very likely to be
more scarce and higher in price dur
ing the coming year than for many
years past, the Practical Farmer
'ays:
"The experience Of thousands of
lairymen throughout the country
has shown beyond question that the
lilo is one of the most important fac
ors in the economic feeding of

looked upon as primarily
feed for dairy cows it is being in

PAILLE FINNE GRASS

The grass occurs in more or less
abundance on most Of the low, open
prairies which are not overlooked
by high tides, and which are only
occasionally covered by fresh water
floods. It is rare on the salt marshes
and on timbered lands, and on
prairies which are low and
swampy it is usually replaced by
'roseau" cans (Phragmites)' and
other worthless species. It is rare
on lands high enough to be cultivat-
ed in sugar cane, but is often album
dant on the top Of low leyees, even
when rare few yards further back.
Its best growth seems to be made on
land which is from one to three feet
above the ordinary water level in the
adjoining bayous and canals. It
does not bear long-continued over
flow, even Of fresh water, and
found extensive areas where an
abundant growth Of three years ago
had been almost destroyed by the
floods of 1912. On such areas, how
ever, there are still a few plants on
levee banks and high places. and it
is now gradually extending itself.
and will cover its entire original
territory. As the grass seldom pro-
duces seed, and its spread is almost
wholly by means of its long root
stocks, its spread is slow.

HELP FEED YOURSELF
Make Home Gardens and Bael
Yards Productive

Make every square yard of fer
tile, sunny soil produce food. Make
your ground work for you and the
Nation. Idle ground is waste; this
is no time for waste or idleness. You
can raise some vegetables for your
family, no matter how small piece
of ground you have.
Somebody Has to Raise EVERYTHING

1. Keep your garden working all
season. Hasten every crop by start
ing seed in boxes in the house, in
hotbeds and cold frames if the
weather prevents outdoor planting.
2. Get your ground ready for
planting as soon as the soil is dry
enough to work.
8. Plant for early crops as soon as
the weather permits. Make sue
cessive paintings of lettuce, radishes,
beans, and other short crops.
4. Start new crops between the
rows Of plants that are soon to be
removed
5. AS fast as the ground is cleared
of one crop start new crop.
6. See that your garden toward
fall is full Of potatoes, beets, turnips
cabbage, and other staple foods that
can be stored for the winter.
Your Children, Too, Can Help
Boys and girls can help to make
the soil in your gardens, back yards,
and vacar:a lots produce food for the
family. Last year they raised in
their gardens and helped to can
more than 100000 packages of
valuable food.
Save All Surplus Fruits And
Vegetables
If your garden at any time pro-
duces more than you can use i'm
mediately, do not allow the surplus
to spoil.
Can surplus beans, peas, corn, to-
matoes, beets, spinach, pumpkin, and
squash for winter use.
Can or preserve apples, peaches,
pears, cherries, ounces, berries, and
other cultivated and wild fruits.
Every can Of vegetables or fruit
and every jar Of preserved food
means that you have saved food
material that would otherwise have
been wasted.
Can or store root crops, cabbage,
and othed vegetables properly SO
that they will keep well and supply |
you with food when the garden
ceases to produce.

This is poo advice. The nation

They are, indeed, an outdoor people

they shed their WEAKNESS, find a new
spirit, and acquire a new will to do,
gaining firmness of muscle and clar-
