Night-light should be like daylight - all

GOVERNMENT SEED AT COST
Secretary OF Agriculture Asks APP
preparation to Secure Proper
Supply.

Washington, d. c.. jan. 6.-David
r. Houston, Secretary Of the Agricul-
ture, has asked Congress for an APP
preparation of $6,000,000 to enable
the Department of Agriculture to buy
and sell to farmers for cost at a rea-
sonabe price. In letter which the
Secretary has sent to the Secretary OF
the Treasurer, he says:
THE seed corn situation in the
northern half of the corn belt is
moro serious than it has been for
years. Early frosts throughout the
northern part of the corn belt caught
much OF the corn either in the milk
or in the dough stages, and, although
the. crop was large, it contains an
unusually high percentage OF sort
soft corn The high prices prevail
ing also have caused farmers to sell
old corn and consequently there is
a much smaller supply on hand than
in former years.
early maturing varieties of Soy
beans in recent years have become
very important in several northern
states, especially in Michigan and
Wisconsin. The early frost of this
year caught the soy beans in these
states when they were about halt
mature and the seed crop, therefore
is practically total loss. The proDa-
BILE large use of soy beans as teed,
both whole and ground and as hu-
man food, will absorb large part OF
the. crop of the early varieties harV-
i.ested in Indiana and Ohio. Since
these are the only sections from
which suitable seed for Michigan ana
Wisconsin can be secured, it is I'M
portant that adequate seed supplies
be withdrawn from consumption ana
made available for planting during
the next season.
Three northern states produce
large quantities of white or navy
beans. Michigan, New York, and Wis
consin Of the total acreage, nearly
three-fourths is in Michigan. An
early frost not only greatly reduced
the Weld. but also greatly injured the
viability of the beans. 1t is essential
therefore, that action be taken to see
that an adequate supply of good seeu
is available for the next planning
season.
TT is the purpose of the depart
ment, if the sum suggested Is Hldue
available, to take immediate steps to
secure, test, and store at least por
ton of the supply of these seeds that
will be needed for next season In
this connection, it should be borne IN
mind that, under the language OF the
item: the seed will be sold otarmers
only for cash. at a reasonable price
and if is provided that the fund may
no used as a revolving fund until the
Secretary of the Agriculture deter
mines that the emergency collleli-
Mated bv the apportionment no long
or exists. In the circumstances, 1t Is
believed that it will be possible to re-
turn to the Treasury the entire
amount appropriated, or at least the
greater portion of it."

German Papers Comment

The German newspapers have aban-
doned the pretense that things will
be easier this winter that last" but
they still cling to the hope that pros
poets may be changed by some miracle
in Russia or Italy. The Berlin cor
respondent of the Cologne "Volkszei-
tung, discussing the prospects of the
fourth winter, says:
1T will be the hardest yet. Every
household viii feel its hardships more
because all the small stocks in store
rooms and cellars have been used up.
the harvest has not turned out we'll
Nevertheless, the nation can hold out
if three conditions are fulfilled Every
possible surplus should be brought in
from Runlania, Belgium and France
All grains must be seized for the COM
mon store. Potatoes must be used
for stretching the bread stuffs.

is also playing large part in pro-
curing provisions. It is well known
that all possible provisions can be OBJ
tanned if one has other commodities
such as rice, soap or petroleum to eX-
change. The shop keepers in the
towns are good hands at this system.
Though they may have nothing on
view in the shop, there is always some
thing in the background which they
will exchange for other goods on
favorable terms. If the farmers wife
appears with her luxuries, she can
have whatever she wants.
Two remedies are suggested
heavy penalties or free trade. The
latter would be a dangerous expert
ment, the former needs the support
of everybody to make it effective
