FIFTHsLIBERTY LOAN.

Official notification that the country
must prepare for another liberty loan
in the spring is contained in letter
sent by the Secretary of the Treasury
to bankers advising them Of the gov
ernment's plans for financing. While
the date and amount of the next loan
are not specified, it is understood that
twill come In the last three weeks of
April and will be for $4,000, 100000.
Against this proposed loan the
Treasury will for the next few months
issue short-term certificates to meet
the running expenses of the govern

A VICTORY HARVEST.

Several things put the world on
from the farms; interruption of trans
port by sea and land; overrunning of
Belgium, Northern France, Rumania,
Western Russia and Asio Minor; gener-
ar Rehabilitation incident to war in
Russia, the Balkans, and elsewhere.
In none of these respects can nor
NAL conditions be restored for long
time after fighting ends. Next to the
United States, Russia was the great
producer Of surplus foodstuffs. She
signed her peace treaties almost a
year ago and in regard to food is worse
off than ever. We may hope there
will not be another Russian case; but
to restore normal conditions of food
production must take much time Just
to reconstruct normal reserves of
foodstnffs would take the surplus from
a bumper world crop. et
Peace may leave some industries in
doubtful state of mind as to the fu-
ture; but there is no doubt the world
will need all the foodstuffs it can pos
sibly produce next year.
The Department of Agriculture is
now planning a drive for Victory
Harvest in the United States in 1918.
For four years we have had the slim
ulation of very high prices. In 1913
the chief grains brought double the
price of 1914; but the outturn in 1914
was smaller than that of 1918 by only
ten per cent. Production in 1915 was
greater than in 1918. Which simply
shows that, taking weather conditions
of one year with another, an impor-
tant increase in the production of food
stuffs must come very slowly. In view
of the world situation there is little
enough danger of OVERRIDING it.
1t needs a drive-the kind of effort
we make to put over Liberty Loan
The drive must be directed largely to
real farmers on real farms. The i'm
provised and amateur things, such as
war gardens on. back lots, are useful !;
but to increase real farm production is
the big thing. The situation-and these
prices-warrants the best intensive
effort every farmer can make He can
abundantly afford to study his FARMS
possibilities carefully, to go out of his
way for. expert advice, to invest in fer
tilizers, to cultivate thoroughly. Next
to peace, the world needs few things
more than Victory Harvest in 1918

 AS TO COSTS THAN
 |SEAST, SAYS BANK

The retail prices of several of the leading commodities are lower in this district than in other districts of the United States, according to a statement sent by the Federal Reserve bank of San Francisco, that has Jurisdiction over Arizona, to the Phoenix National bank yesterday.
 The banks statement quotes the food administration: "Sixteen leading com modities are lower in San Francisco than any of the largest seven cities in the United States. Much the same conditions prevail throughout this dis trict as natural result of mild climate and productive soil"
 The statement continues: The gov ernment report of April 1 as to wheat and rye, showing the percentage of normal, gives a good suggestion of the general crop conditions in the seven states of this district" Arizona is then shown to be about normal in wheat this year at 92 as against 94 as an average for ten years.
 Bank clearings for twenty principal cities of this district show a consider able increase, S957, ,079,000 for March compared to sS39,064, 900 a year ago. Speaking of present conditions in general the statement says: Some clearer evidence is appearing of indi- vidual savings to help the government To forego the unnecessary expenditure of income in order to lend to the gov ernment for the prosecution of the war | is now the duty of all. The worn garment is a mark of patriotism. obligation rests upon municipali- ties, quite the same as upon individuals to use labor, material and money as | sparingly as possible. For a city to newly pave street or to resurface an old pavement .. is to be un- patriotic. It is a time for every cur tailment possible. Municipal projects may well be resumed when peace comes and when thousands of discharged sol diers will be temporarily without em- ployment.''
