Food Survey Figures Soon
Available; Vital Questions

of greatest Importance in winning the
war-food.
Trailing the Food Supply.
The trail of the country's food SUD
ply Is winding and many-branched
one, the Bureau OF Markets has found.
A surprising variety of dealers and
holders" go to make up the vast
army of individuals and concerns that
have in their hands the potential break
fasts, dinners, and suppers of the Ma
ton. Among the most important Gus
todians Of this vast food supply are
owners of grain elevators, common and
cold storage concerns, meat packers,
carriers. exporters, wholesale and re-
tail grocers, bakers, confectioners,
butchers, and other dealers. Schools
and hospitals, asylums and other insti-
tutions. it has been found are much
larger holders of food than had been
supposed, while another important
group which carries considerable guam
titles of foodstuffs is made up of ho-
tells, restaurants, commisSaries, etc.
To every dealer and holder of food,
the Bureau of Markets has attempted
to mail a schedule on which the official
returns of holdings is to be made
This has involved a vast amount Of
preliminary work, for before a blank
was sent out the most complete list
ever made of handlers and holders of
food had to be built up from various
sources and checked and rechecked.
This list now contains between a half
and three-quarters of a million names.
Penalty for Slackers.
To guard against any food handlers
being missed by failure to include them
In the mailing list, the Bureau of
Markets has sent supplies Of sched-
ules to its agents throughout the coun-
try for distribution, and at the same
time has announced that all individuals
and concerns handling foods who do
not receive schedules through the mails
by January will be expected to apply
to the local agencies for copies. Can
gress put teeth in the act authorizing
the making Of a food survey by pro-
vtding that persons willfully failing to
make returns when called upon, or
willfully making incorrect returns win
be subjected to fine OF not more than
$1,000 or Imprisonment for not more
than one year. -

TO AVOID CENSORS
Soldier Boys Use the Regulation
Blue Envelopes.
Must Sign Certificate on Outside That
Contents Are Personal or Fam
lily Matters Only.

The blue envelope has made a big
hit with Sammy. 1t is the one feature
OF the army's field censorship regula-
lions to which he gives a kind word.
Not that the censorship inhlbitions are
unreasonable or irksome especially to
him, but because 1t Is the soldiers
proverbial and inalienable right to
"beef'' against the censor, writes a
correspondent with the American ex.
peditionary force in France.
The provision regulating the blue
envelopes reads as follows:
I'm order that men may forward
personal or family letters without the
necessity Of having them read by Of
ncers known to them personally. such
letters may be inclosed in the author
lied blue envelope and sent directly
to the base censor through United
States army postal service"
Only authorized envelopes supplied
to organizations at the rate of one
per man per week may be used. More
than one letter, however, may be for
warded in the envelope. but all the
letters must be from the same soldier
yh9 signs q certificate On the outside
81 the envelope to the effect that the
letters inclosed relate to personal or
family matters only and do not refer
to military subjects.
"It's great stunt" said one dough
boy. "You see II me and the missus
want to have a little tiff on paper I
don't want the captain to be KNOWN
all about 1t. What do care If some
fellow miles away, whom I'll never
see In my life. reads 1t. l guess 1t win
seem like a little bit Of home sweet
home to himr"
Or, as another put It:
you know any time q fellow writes
his girl, of course he has to gush q
little. Maybe spring a little poetry
and sometimes, by gosh, you mean IL
Believe me. you get mighty lonesome
over here hearing a lot Of chattering
you don't know nothin' about. And
when her picture is lookin' down at
you from the wall and the moon II
helpin' out the candle to light the
room and you get thinlxin' Of the night
you said good-by. it's powerful helpin'
to sit down and write her all about IL"
The blue envelope Is q development
Of this war. It Is new in our service.
The French and English though, have
hsen using 1t for quite while. and az
we have adopted in many respects the
censorship regulations Of the English
army. the lady in blue, as the envelope
has come to be called, came with them,
Today she is the one popular member
i-0f her family.

The Department of Agriculture is
sues the following:
How much food has Uncle Sam in
his national larder with which to start
the New Year? How adequately can
he feed until harvest time his many
millions of civilians and soldiers? VIII
it be necessary during the coming II
months for his citizens to eat war
bread? Can he furnish the share
which he ought of the daily ration
needed by the fighting men of the al
lies? And can he supplement somewhat
perhaps. the meager fare of the friend
ly neutrals to whom the war has
brought the pinch Of hunger?
Filling Out Schedules.
These are the big and vital questions
so important to the conduct of the
war, which the Bureau of Markets, De-
partment of Agriculture, is seeking to
answer by carrying out the war emer-
gency food survey provided for by the
last Congress- All over the country
steps are being taken to answer these
questions Hundreds of thousands of
persons in control of food supplies,
large and small, are filling out SEIZED

the quantities of more than one hun
dred different foods on hand December
81, 1917, quantities on hand December
81. 1915 for comparison, and the guam
titles shipped out by freight or express
that have not been delivered to the
consignee. To the totals of these fig
ures will be added quantities held by
retail food dealers in certain counties
where ore-to-store canvasses are be-
ing made. The latter intensive sur
veys will be made in order that the
figures for the entire country can be
checked. In addition about 10000 Sc

ductl0n and conservation OF food to
meet the war emergency needs.
To Put an Agent in Each County.
Organization of new counties is
rapid, especially in States of the cen
trail west, several Of which have Civ
en- assurance that there will be
county agent or county emergency dem
onstration agent in each Of their coun-
ties by February 1.
Maine, New Hampshire Massachu-
sets, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and
Delaware already have an agent in
each county, while New York, Indiana,
and Pennsylvania are almost complete
ly covered. Nearly half of the agri-
cultural counties in the northern and
western states are now being served by
a local demonstration agent, and the
indications are that the country can
be completely covered before the be-
ginning of another crop year.
One Of the most gratifying features
of the organization campaign in the
northern and western states thus far
has been that most counties taking
up the work are arranging for 1t on
n permanent baSis-many Of them max
ing plans for periods of three years.
County Agents Must Have Thorough
Training.
The qualification requirements Of
agents are somewhat different in the
various states. Graduation from an
agricultural college is not in all cases
required though training substantially
equivalent to a four years course at
such college is usually insisted upon
considerable amount of farm ex-
perience is universal requirement,
and it is preferable that some of this
experience should be secured since
completing the college course.
Additional information in rgard to
county agent work and the organiza-
ton of farm bureaus can be had by

lege or to the United States Depart

Farm Bureaus Popular.


Any agricultural county in the Unit
ed States can be organized for county
agent work in short time If accom-
plishments of farm bureaus and county
agents in other countries in the var
ious States are properly presented to
the farmers.
This is the assertion of the United
States Department Of Agriculture Off
Gals who have been assisting in the or
ganization of farm bureaus in the
Northern and Western States.
More than 700 county agents and
emergency demonstration agents are
now at work in the % northern and
western states. The increase in agents
since emergency appropriations became
available was more in two months than
the average yearly increase during any
OF the past four years.
Competent Men in Demand.
County agricultural agent work Is
conducted by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture i'm cooperation with
the various State agricultural colleges
and local organizations representing the
farmers of the county in which the
agent is located. The county agent
Is usually selected by a committee rep
resenting the county organization, on
recommendation of the county agent
leader at the agricultural college
There Is at present an unusually great
demand for men qualified for work OF
this kind to carry out the plan, adopt

ton agent for every agricultural county
