There'rl be little more barley for

And there'n be a little less aleohoI

This, today, appeared to be the
prospect for the period Of the war as

Barley Is one Of the most valuable
grains for making the new war bread.
II is practically the only wheat sub

BLOOD OR BREAD

Immediately upon the declaration of war in 1914 a food question was born. We did not see it then. but q year ago it was apparent. Since then it has been developing so rapidly that in another year it will outweigh all other perils excepting that of Hunnic domination. Not merely the bellger- ent, but the neutral countries are al- ready crying for food.
 Switzerland, for instance, is hard pressed and appealing to the United States for help. Short as is our SUD- ply, urgent as is our duty to feed our allies, we cannot let this neutral country starve, and wash our hands by saying it is none of our affair. We are not Germans. The United States is now making strenuous eff forts to get wheat to Switzerland to relieve it's distress.
 The world crop returns need but to be analysed to prove that not only Switzerland, but all the importing countries of the world will soon be in dire need of food. In 1916 the har- vests of Europe were ten per cent smaller than the average of the five years preceding. That of last year was smaller yet-twenty per cent smaller. It looks to North America for help; yet this favored region pro- duced 12 1-2 per cent less than the five-year average.
 When all the people of these coun- tries of Europe and America eat to their satisfaction they are wont to consume 2,000,0O0,O0O bushels of wheat every year. The combined crops of this last harvest amounted to less than 1,50O,OOO,OO0. Where will the balance come from? The minimizing point to India and Aus tralia. But there are no ships to convey it, and if there were, the Mediterranean has proved to be the most dangerous zone patrolled by the submarine. If food were piled noun tain high in these countries, it would be to hungry Europe and America like the fabled cup of Tantalus.
 But it is not there is such quanti- ties. The wheat of last year was piled in bags in the open. Mice and weevils have done their work, Europe must depend upon the United States and Canada, and they have not suffi- cient wheat to supply the need. Can not our people realize that in eating potatoes, corn and oats they are help ing to avert a world calamity? Bar ley makes good loaf. Potatoes can be mashed and made into bread. Our ancestors ate corn; while the brawny Scot eats oats; cannot we do the same when the peril is so great?
 A regiment of young men marched in Baltimore with a banner on which was inscribed, We have gwen our selves; what have you given?" The question is for everyone to answer. If you cannot give your blood, at least give bread.-New York Times.
