THE SUBMARINE SITUATION

Many students of the war have felt
that once the u boats were mastered, the
issue of the war is no longer in doubt.
Considering the terrific striking power
manifested in the German spring drive,
this opinion now looks premature. But
If the submarine can be mastered, the
situation will be measurably improved.
The latest report Of sinkings showed a
total for three months, which If continued
for year, would amount to 4,5OO0Q0l
tons of all allied shipping. The latest fig
ures indicate that the United States will
build at least 100000 tons this year.
England should build 1,5O0, 900 tons. From
Japan and other sources at least 100000
tons should be secured, making prob
able total Of 100000. This will prob
ably be exceeded.
We should not too hastily assume the
submarine is beaten. It remains to be
seen whether the long day light Of the
summer season will help the U>boats to
follow their prey more persistently, and
secure a higher ratio Of sinkings. It is
encouraging, however, to note that sink
ings for March and April before weekly.
reports were given up, did not exceed
those for winter months with their short
daylight.
Z It is not enough to replace the sunken
ships. We need constantly increasing
tonnage as the army increases. We must
be prepared for one of the sudden sur
prises that the Germans seem able to pull
off every little while. So our country
must still strain every resource to build
an enormous fleet Of ships capable Of
beating the worst u boat pirates can do.
While flattering hopes have been held
out of the new invention that will locate
an approaching submarine, it will be poor
policy to place reliance in such hopes UNI
til submarine sinkings have been reduced
far below their current total.

THE COST OF FOOD

The latest United States government
statistics show that the cost Of food as
q whole increased Fl per cent during the
year ending last February. A large part
of that advance occurred during the first
three months of the period. The entrance
of the United States into the war made q
new demand for food, and tended to en-
courage spectators to hold out for high
prices.
This advancing tendency is not yet
stopped. During the last month of the
period, the prices went up another / per
cent. Potatoes are about the only staple
lower than year ago, thanks to the
great back yard crop raised by patriotic
gardeners. Bread reached its zenith in
August when the average price of Is
ounce loaf was up to .091. BY February
it was down to .083.
1t is disappointing that in spite of the
big corn crop on which we expected such
satisfactory results, the prices of corn
meal kept rising. Retail prices at Chi
cago went up during the period named
from .041 per pound to .O70. This sug-
gests that the corn crop was not effici-
emily handled. Much Of it was from the
start in very poor condition, owing to the
late frosts. During the late winter there
were wide spread complaints that corn
was spelling, owing to the lack a freight
cars to transport it to the mills.
Our people have taken cheerfully the
burdens imposed on them by the war.
They understand that we must all make
sacrifices, and the high prices Of food are
a burden on our war efficiency.
The farm Is an essential part Of the
battle front. The exemption boards
should be very cautious about taking men
for army service who are needed In food
raising. And we simply must have suffi-
cient transportation facilities, so that
whatever food is raised can be utilized
before It spoils.

Growers Answering Call of Gov.
eminent In a Most Com
mendable Manner.
Sugar Companies Have Agreed 70 Pay
an Advanced Price 81 et.oo Per Ton
Where IN Increase Of 70 Per Cent
In the Acreage 10 Secured.

The urgent demand for an increased
production Of sugar prompted the Food
Administration to issue special APP
peal for an increased acreage Of sugar
beets. Sugar Is one Of the important
war time foods. of which the world Il
short.
The United States Food Administra-
ton has used Its good offices to the
end that the price Of beets to growers
should be as high rs possible. and the
sugar companies have agreed to pay
I'M advanced price Of. 500 per ton
where an increase ,of 10 per cent in
the acreage Is secuted.
In many communities splendid
spirit has developed. Community pride
has caused many OF the growers to
feel that their district must Ego over
the top" In response to the govern
ment's call for more sugar. In some
instances. the juniors have rendered
splendid aid.
A farmer who lived five miles away
from the nearest beet dump and there
fore had about concluded that the
haul was too long. was importuned by
his ten year old son who insisted that
he wanted two acres OF land so he
could grow war crop; he insisted
that he could produce enough sugar on
the two acres to sustain 100 soldiers
on a full sugar ration for an entire
year, and. furthermore. he would. He
got the land and then he had enough
cash to buy Liberty Bond and also
had q considerable sum for his own
bank account from the proceeds Of the
beets. Five miles was not too far
for him to haul bccts. when TIE Ques-
ton Of properly sustaining our SOL

In the world competition we must meet

Recent years, it is true, have shown

THE WAR, THE FARM

In Berlin. the Kaiser said to him one
day that he would stand no nonsense

STIMULATE OIL PRODUCTIONS

With plans based on q three years war
the United States must bend every ens
ergy to stimulate production Of crude0ik !.
It matters not whether individuals t4f
this, whether it be private capital or 1nss
der state or federal ownership oil must
be had.
While production Of oil and its by
products from refining has increased
since 1914, it has fallen far short Of the
demand.
Reserve oil stocks have declined more
than million barrels month since the
United States entered the war and con-
: tinue to fall. sSsSs
California production in 1917 was N,-
287,8 1892 barrels, gain 4ever 1916, but e
\ 500 900 barrels less than 1914. =
Wyoming last year turned out $780,
600 barrels as compared with 100000
barrels in 1914, and Texas gained so per
cent. I
The five big oil producing states yield
ed 72,OOO,O0O barrels more than in 1914,
as a result Of constant publicity Of the
facts. sx9tsT
This is time for action and not for
economic or political theorizing or for any
experiments except far reaching produe-
ton.
A general policy Nof stimulating oil
production is being initiated by tne gov
