PEACE ADDS TO
 J. s. FOOD TASK
Europe Needs Nearly Double Last Years Supplies From
 America.
ECONOMY MUST CONTINUE.
World Survey Shows Sufficient Wheat, But Shortage of Eats-Govern- ments Cumulative P~o-
 gram Justified.

With the return of peace America |. confronted hy food problem even harder of solution than that with which we coped in time of war We in food. IL will mean essential changes In our domestic program. But more important than this |. must of neces- sit5 require increased export
 !.ast year we shipped II ,S20, ,0O0 tons of foodstuffs to the European Allies Had he war continued we would have increased this enormous figure tu IT, 550o00 tons In the present year Now. with the responsibility of feeding mil Ions of people liberated from the Ger. man yoke, our exports must be brought up to at least 10000 ,00O tons-prac- tically the limit of loading capacity al our ports.
 World Food Demand Increased.
 The end of the war will create ap enormously increased demand for food Humanity demands that the starving millions freed from Prussian oppres. sion shall have sufficient supplies to assure their return to health and pros perity. If these liberated nations are faced with starvation they cannot es- tahlish orderly governments Hunger breeds anarchy In a people The war to free the world for democracy will be lost after 1t has been won Amer lea must continue its work to nbera ton and by sharing its food make de mocracy safe in the world
 In order to meet this new situation the Food Administration has made a careful survey of the food resources of the whole world in relation 10 the to- tal demands. Computing supplies on the basis of the avoidance of waste anG war consumption, IL Is found that wheat and rye may be obtained In sui tcient quantities to meet economical world consumpti high protein feed for dairy animals will show a shortage of about 3.0o000O tons, while there will be sufficient supplies of other feeds to allow economical consump- ten; beans. peas and rice will also be found i'll sufficient quantities to main tain economy in consumption there are sufficient supplies of beef to keep pace with the capacity of refrigerating space.
 Great Fat Shortage.
 The most distinct reversal of policy will come with pork and dairy prod uCts, vegetable oils, sugar and coffee. Utmost economy will be required iA th" use of fats and oils, In which there Is Il world shortage of about 5000 0O0,- 0N pounds There are sufficient sup plies for us to return to our normal sugar consumption If other nations continue their present short ratious. or even If their rations are slightly h. creased If the European countries, however, are to resume their normal sugar consumption IL will be through our continued conservation in order to share with them. There is . sur piu> ut coffee.

UNIVERSITY FARM HOG
SALE A BIG SUCCESS
Thirty Head Pure Bred Duroc-Jerseys
Sold at Good Average Price for
Each

The hog sale at the University
Farm on January Is drew buyers
from Graceville, Herman, Hancock
and many other nearby points. The
majority of the pigs went to Stevens
county farmers, altho the bidding
was keen from the outside buyers.
This was the first public sale of
pure bred Duroc-Jerseys held at the
University Farm of Morris and it
was a big success from every stand
point.
The main purpose in holding the
sale was to disseminate among the
farmers of this territory hogs of ex-
ceptional breeding and Individual
ity. Thirty heads were entered in
the sale, all of which were very uni
form and buyers showed little dis
elimination between the various lots
whcih were offered. The sale started
at 1870 p. m. with approximately
one hundred farmers on hand which
made the bidding active and a keen
interest was displayed throughout
the sale. Previous to the opening of
the sale, Professor Jordan made a
talk explaining to the farmers the
purpose of the sale and expressing
