Past The Food Crisis.
The Philadelphia Record.

The Philadelphia Record.
Mr.. Hoover has from the first taken as
serious view of the food situation of our
Allies as the facts warranted. Whether
he has taken a more serious view than
the facts warranted is not very important
now that he announces the crisis 10 be
past and releases all persons from the mo
wheat" pledge. The use OF substitutes is
still insisted on. and victory" bread will
continue for the present to be the staff of
life. But with a curtailed wheat consump-
ton in this country there is no further &C.
casion for anxiety.
Mr.. Hoover's confidence that food SUD-
plies for the Allies are assured for two
years indicates that the supplies are such
that even poor crops in 1919 and 1920
will not create alarm. His confidence is
probably based upon present accunula-
tons and improved means Of transporta-
ton.
There have been indirect indications
that Great Britain was accommodating a
surplus. Nothing else would account for
the urgent appeals for wheat sent out by
the late Lord Rhondda last winter, when
the highest authorities in England had
announced, on July 81. 1917. that England
then had food enough for seven months,
and the importation in the succeeding
months was greater than In the preceding
year The desire to accumulate reserves

Farm Demonstration Notes.

Every thresherman in Montgomery coun-
ty has been furnished through the Farm
Demonstration Office with a record book
for keeping an account OF each job. In
cooperation with the farmers, he is re-
quested to set down the number of acres
of wheat and the bushels threshed last
year and this. Space is also provided for
other small grains, such as oats, rye. bar
ley, etc. While these books are to be re-
turned to the Farm Demonstration Office
for summarizing. they will be returned to
the threshermen to be retained as their
personal records of the seasons work. II all
threshermen will keep these records for
every job, they will be rendering the coun-
'ty and the government a valuable service.
At present our acreage and yields are
largely a matter Of suesswork. This sim
pie system will give us reliable figures 1t
is really worth while for a county to know
just what it is doing in the matter Of pro-
duction. Besides it gives the thresher-
man handy and permanent record of the
seasons work
The Kensington Community Kitchen was
opened to the public July goth.
The object of the Community Kitchen is
to provide place where everyone may
feel free to come to can and dry and to
obtain any instruction desired In these
lines.
The kitchen is equipped with the best
modern coDveniences for canning and dry
ing. A steam-p ressure Gamer given by
the Food Administration, three driers given
by the State Council of Defense, and a
four-bu Detroit vapor stove donated
by Mr.. William Walker.
The building was donated by Mr.. Arthur
Williams. 1t is cool and spacious and
well-equipped with tables. shelves and
running water
Miss Helen l. Erickson. County Home
Demonstration Agent, is in charge OF the
kitchen. Arrangements are being made
whereby the kitchen will be open every
day Of the week, and all are earnestly re-
quested to make the best possible use of
it by bringing their products there for can
ming and drying. a small fee will be
charged to cover running expenses
The kitchen enables people to get the
benefit Of the latest devices for the sue
cessful putting up Of fruits and vegetables
without the expense Of buying equipment.
Ladies from other communities are invited
to visit the kitchen during the season.
All communications seeking further in
formation should be addressed to Miss

Auto Law Construed.

Because the practice is believed to be
more or less common, there will be con-
siderable interest in an opinion handed
down by Chief Counsel W. Cabell Bruce.
Of the Public Service Commission, in which
he holds that a person who. somewhat
in the nature of side line. regularly hauls
passengers on State road in an automo-
bile between their homes and their places
of employment. charging a fee therefor, is,
in effect, operating motorcar for hire over
a fixed route. and must take out special
license under the Maryland laws. The
ordinary hiring license under the circum-
stances is not sufficient
Mr.. Bruce's opinion was rendered apropos
of complaint filed with the commission
some time ago by II. M. Hopkins against
Charles Wildason. Mr.. Hopkins is the
owner Of motor vehicle used in the pub
lie transportation of passengers for hire
between Belair and Aberdeen. for the OPP
Grafton Of which he has secured the neces-
sary permit from the Public Service Com
mission.
Mr.. Wildason is employed at the Aber-
deem Proving Grounds. He lives near
Belair and each day hauls to and from
Aberdeen five of his neighbors who work
at that place. He uses a large touring
car owned by him. and for which he has
taken out hiring-car license. Mr.. Hop
kins thinks that Mr.. Wildason is infring-
ing upon his PRIVILEGES and. therefore, made
his complaint.
The excuse given by Mr.. Wildason for
thus operating car in opposition to Mr..
Hopkins was that the hours of business
imposed upon his five passengers are such
as to render unavailable to them the ac-
commodation offered by Mr. Hopkins motor
bus.
Mr.. Bruce. in his opinion. states that this
may be very good reason why the ex-
elusive privilege which the commission
would be disposed to accord Mr.. Hopkins
should be modified pro tanto, but it is no
reason why Mr.. Wildason should be per-
mitted to transport passengers over
State road for hire without first securing
the proper permit from the commission,
and first paying the Motor Vehicle Com
missioner the higher license required by
law"

accounts for Mr. Hoover's indifference to
the Withholding of wheat by the farmers
We have exported much less wheat and
eaten much less during the past year than
we did in the preceding year. The infer
ence is inevitable that in the great wheat
producing sections of the country the grain
has been held back. But so long as we
exported enough to meet the needs of our
Allies Mr. Hoover was not much concerned
over the stocks in farmers hands, for that
constituted part of the reserve he felt it
important to build up.
That we have exported less than year
ago, but that the food situation in England
has improved, and in France and Italy has
at least grown no worse, is evidence that
the needs of our Allies during the past IL
months have been less than in the previ-
GUS IL months Among other things, Eng
gland raised more food last year than the
year before, and is raising still more this
year.
Besides this increased supply, the means
VA oAAhSilS WHcdl IEOtll INSTANT countries
have been increasing. Until well into 1916
Great Britain allowed her shipbuilding to
decline alarmingly. Since then she has
been increasing the production of ships. |
We have done incredible things in the way
of shipbuildng. We have completed some
thing like million and quarter dead
weight tons of shipping. besides taking
over the fleet of Dutch steamers, acquiring
a large fleet from Norway, and buying
chartering and building steamers in Japan,
the deliveries of which have begun.
A considerable amount of Argentine
wheat has been exported A Norwegian
bark arrived in an American port recently
with 100000 bushels. The British mer-
chant marine has been able to carry 200,-
900 American soldiers month"; and yet
maintain increased food importations
and general foreign trade. Mr.. Hoover's
confidence is undoubtedly based partially
on the increased possibilities of bringing
wheat and meats from Argentina, Aus
tralia and India. The first two have large
supplies Of grain, and Argentina has large
meat supplies Our own stock of food ami
mails has been increasing rapidly ever since

farmers to petition our Governor Harring-

the Governor backed down, even after he

Just as soon as the boys and girls of
every county have had work made their
object rather than education, Just that
soon will all the needs of the farmers,
