Appeal to Farmers for
More Food.
SECRETARY H0UST0N's VIEWS
Gardeners and Truck Growers Should
Meet Local Observation-Disclosures
Commercial Production Wher-
ever Possible.

Gardeners, fall In!
A call for more food from Americas
gardens, both the commercial and the
home plots. Is contained in the de-
partment Of agriculture's agricultural
production program for 1918, secently
announced. This Is what the program
says to the gardeners:
Market gardens near large consume
ng centers should be increased so as
o meet as nearly as possible the
leeds of the community and In order
10 obviate the necessity Of transport
ng such products from distant points.
It Is important to do all that Is pos
sible to relieve the strain upon trans
portation facilities.
The planting Of home gardens, es-
,ecially for family needs and for pre-
serving foods for future use, again
should be emphasized.
The commercial production Of per-
STABLES generally should be increased
above normal wherever it Is reason
ably clear that transportation and mar
keting facilities will be favorable.
Last year the production Of perish
ables Is estimated to have been so per
cent greater than normal. Notwifh-

pecially the state agricultural col

more war gardens. to see that they are
maintained throughout the season. and
to insure the prompt consumption or
preservation for future use of all per-
ishables produced in these gardens or
otherwise. More effective assistance
also will be rendered in the market
ing Of perishable products through the
greatly extended daily market news
service of the bureau Of markets and
the weekly reports of truck crop pro-
duction prepared by the bureau Of

KEEP UP BIG POTATO CROP
ADVISE U. 8. SPECIALISTS

The normal acreage Of Irish
and sweet potatoes should be
maintained in 1918 notwithstand-
ing the large crops in 1917, the
department of agriculture be-
lieves. This is especially true
in view Of the necessity Of re-
leasing more wheat for export.
Potatoes, both Irish and sweet,
are the most popular and most
generally used Of the perishable
stable crops. The department.,
through its extension and publ
cation activities, is encouraging
their greater use, especially the
use of the Irish potato, as q par
tial substitute for wheat in
bread-making.
The yield per acre can be
made more certain by greater
attention to the selection Of dis
ease-free potatoes of good vari-
cites, by treatment of seed pota-
toes Immediately before plant
ing, and by the use of sprays to
prevent loss from blight.

ITALIAN KING SPEAKS
ENGLISH WITH WILSON
CONTINUED from Page y

cluded reception at the Murat res
idence of the ambassadors and min
isters accredited to France. The GER
emonv- one of the most colorlul
and dignifed to take place during
Mr.. Wilson's Tsn to Parls-was
scheduled to begin at 5 p. IN.
The cordia!ity shown at the meet
ing between Mr.. Wilson and King
Victor Emmanuel yesterday was a
subject Of much comment by those
who were present. The president has
been somewhat concerned as to the
event, not knowing that the Italian
king speaks English. After the eX-
change of greetings the two states
men came to a mutual understand
ing, and during their conversation
they could be seen to be smiling and
gesticulating in the most friendly
manner.
1t is probable that members OF the
American delegation will hold in
formal conferences with Premier Or
lando and Baron Sonninto to gain
personal knowledge OF their views
which have ben explained in a pre-
liminary way by Count Di Cellere,
Italian ambassador at Washington.
This will go far toward laying the
ground work Tor consideration and
determining OF Italy's claims in ac-
tual conferences later.
Mr.. Wilson's first week in France
is drawing to a close with his ad-
visers feeling that much has been
accomplished in a preliminary way
toward establishing personal rela-
tions with statesmen with whom the
American delegation will have to
deal. Organization is now appear
ing out OF the confusion which pre-
vailed during the first few days after
the presidents arrival.

Russian Problem Intense

London, Dec. 20.-The London
correspondent OF the Manchester
Guardian suggests that President
Wilson's sudden determination to
come to England is due to his de-
sire to consult the British govern
ment regarding the Russian situa-
ton before the preliminary to the
peace conference. The correspond
cnt points to the presence in Lon
don of Foreign Premier Kerensky
and Paul N. Milukoff, former Rus-
sian foreign minister and leader of
the constitutional democrats. He
also calls attention in regard to
Wednesdays statement by Niscount
Miner, secretary of war, on the
Russian situation, which he says
was "evidently intended to prepare
the public for events to come.
"Rumors OF an advanced policy
against Russia are growing daily"
the correspondent continues and
feeling not only in labor quarters,
but in commercial quarters too, has
become very tense about our next
adventure in Russia. The share
