Food Needs. f."

or pork that goes on the table repre-
sent a consumption Of many pounds
of corn or other valuable grain fed to
the cattle, sheep or hogs from which
the meat was taken. The more of
these meats you eat the more
cereals you are taking out Of the sup
ply that is so greatly needed for the
Nations war needs at this time To
large extent, too, these statements
apply to all kinds Of poultry. The one
kind of meat, the production of which
does not require the consumption of
other human foods, is fish, The seas,
lakes, rivers and ponds of the coun-
try offers practically unlimited guam
| titles of fish that live on food which
is of no use to man. When you eat
fish you save meat and save grain,
both of which your government asks
you to conserve.
Ordinarily it is possible to secure
good, fresh fish at the meat market,
but whether justly or not, fresh fish
| is always more or less under suspic
| ion in the meat markets of cities and
| towns that are distant from the sea
coast or the lakes. The suspicion in
most cases is not justified, but even
if it were it would not follow that
people of inland towns and cities
must necessarily refrain from eating
fresh fish.
There are large number of
streems and ponds from which one
may take the fish needed for family
consumption, and there should be
very many more such ponds. A fish
pond does not necessarily take up
much space and need not be confined
to large places. Practically all coun-
try families, and very many suburban
families, could have, without any
great difficulty, a fish pond or pool
in which enough fish could be grown
at minimum expense to- supply the
table and to save large quantities of
| other meats and cereals.
There is a great deal of pleasure
| and recreation, too, in catching the
| fish. And there is a. decided safes
faction in knowing that the fsh~you
eat have been taken from your own
pond or stream within very short
time before being prepared for the
| table.
The U. S. Department of Agri-,
culture has long urged more general
adoption of the family fish pond, and
it points out the exceptional need
for such practice at this time. 1t
would be a genuine national service
if several times more people than
now indulge in fishing for sport or
otherwise would, by devoting a little
of their spare time to it, take e.
nough fish from stream or pond to
place this excellent food on the table
several times oftener than is now the
general practice.
The hour or two that every man
should devote to some form of re-
creation, if intelligently applied to
fishing, would offer the same rest and
rejuvenation that is to be had from
nonproductive sports and would, at
the same time, be not only domestic
but a public economy.

RAISE SHEEP ON cUT-OvER
LANDS OF GREAT LAKES
National Sheep and Wool Bureau
-, Advocate Raising Of Sheep
in This Section.

The following is copied from a
circlar sent out by the National
Sheep and Wool Bureau of America:
Wisconsin and Montana lost 2,040-
900 sheep since the census of 1900.
Wool and mutton from these sheep
would have sold for $21, 100000 this
year at present prices.
Since 1900 the Nation has lost
around 100000 sheep! Wool and
mutton from these sheep this year
| would amount to a little less than
$150. 100000!
Montana-largest sheep state in
the Union-:has lost one-half of it's
wool clip in seven years on account
of decrease of sheep.
From 2,200,000,O00 to 2,700,000,000
pounds of wool now used annually
by the armies at war.
Over 120,000,000 animals i'm Europe
slaughtered for meat thus far dur
ing the war. 56,000,000 of which
| were sheep!
Practically no sheep left in Ger
many, very few in Turkey, while the
Balkan states sheep stock has been
practically wiped out.
sheep-France one-third IF it's sup
ply. England's wool clip has de-
creased almost one-third. Russia is
the only country that has not suf
fered severely. Deep inroads have
been made on the sheep supply in
Italy and the Scandinavian countries
New Zealand is barely holding her
own, and by virtue of increasing
dairying and general farming, focks
in this country are being reduced
materially year by year. There are
not nearly as many sheep in South
America and Australia today as there
were a few years ago.
South Africa is holding her own,
at about the same from year to year.
In Mexico sheep and goats have been
greatly reduced.
The goat stock in Turkey has been
reduced over so per cent-and re-
member that this is the biggest
Mohair country in the world.

shearing sheep in the United States
next spring. This means a wool clip
not to exceed 2OO0OO,OO0 pounds
and we need 750,000,000 pounds if we
are to adequately cloth the men in
our Army and Navy so as to protect
them from the cold.
Whereare we going to get this wool
from? Someone say Australia-but
no one tells us where the shipe are
to come from to transport this wool.
Germany has no more wool supply,
save what she can purchase in South
America.
Twenty-Five per cent of all the
sheep in the western states will have
to be slaughtered. This is the esti-
mate of practical men who are, ac-
quainted with the situation. Why?
Because the hamestead act has, in
five months, taken over 50,000,000
acres,-some of it the best grazing
land for sheep in the country. What
is the answer? Save these sheep by
placing them on the cut-over lands
of our Great Lakes states.
Presindent Frank G. Hagenbarth of
the National Wool Growers Associa-
ton says this plan is eminently pract-
ical, and already, through the efforts
