FRANCE EXPECTS A
GOOD WHEAT CROP

Paris. Feb. 7.-tCorrespondencel
France without a bumper" crop
of corn to fall back upon is making
a brave effort to increase the yield
OF other foodstuffs and there are now
for the first time signs that the ef-
fort is producing results.
Nearly a million more acres OF
wheat were sown last fall than in
1916, according to recently complet-
ed statistics. With ordinary good
luck this means nearly 20.000,000
bushels more OF wheat Spring seed
ing this year may exceed that of
1917 by nearly the same extent
which will bring the French wheat
crop this year up to 100000 bu-
shells more than that OF last year.
The bread card, taking effect Janu-
airy 29th was intended to save from
food consumption the million bu-
shells required for the extended seed
ing.
W. Compere-Morel, eommissary OF
agriculture, charged with the extern
sion OF seeding, has already divided
100000 bushels OF Manitoba wheat

por,ant gains will be made In the
crop OF 1918.
The decision OF the French food
minister to Issue cards regulating
the distribution OF bread to three
hundred grammes (about II ounces)
day is causing much comment.
Some criticize, others approve but
the consensus OF opinion may be
summed up In the good natured re-
mark Of morning paper which says

CULTURE HERE BEFORE 1892
Die Aneriea's Pre.columbIan cIviIiza-

Row Question.

Prof Elliot Smith developed In an
extraordinarily interesting manner the
thssis that the pre.Columblan clvillza-
tlons Of America-or at least many I'm
portant features In those civilizations
were not truly aboriginal, but came
Ia cultural wave from Asia across
the Pacific ocean, the original starting
point Of the most remarkable charac-
teristic being Egypt.
Professor Smith believes, says Sci
ence Progress, that the extremely pc
culiar culture Of Egypt was spread
eastward by mariners, mainly Phoeni-
clans, for several centuries after B. @.
800. To quote the authors own words,
he thinks that "the essential elements
Of the ancient civilizations Of India
(the pre-Aryan civllizations), further
India, the Malay archipelago, Oceania
and America were brought In success
sion to each Of these places by mari
ners, whose oriental migratlons began
as trading intercourse between the
eastern Mediterranean and India some
time after 800 B. G., and that the
highly complex and artificial culture
which they spread abroad was derived
largely from Egypt (not earlier than
the twelty-iirst dynasty, but also In
cluded many important accretions
from other sources, and that after tra-
verslng Asia and Oceanla and bccom-
Ing modified on the way, the stream

HARBoR BOND ELECTION A
ONCE.

O4NN
Just a few hours ago the Courier
was given quite authentic informa-
ton showing that the rivers and
harbors bill carrying the Crescent
City harbor project would without
doubt become a law very soon
Things are shaping themselves fast
at Washington. We believe the gov
eminent is desirous OF helping us
because We are willing first to help
ourselves by bonding for our harbor
Improvement. 1t can be taken for
granted that the improvement Of
Crescent City harbor will soon be un-
der L. S. government supervision
We are very certain that we are not
mistaken in this. 1t is wonderful
news for us and we must get busy
and do our share. The purpose OF
this editorial is to fully awaken our
people to the great opportunity Civ
en- us. The quicker we urge our Off
cials to prepare for the holding of
an election to bond Del Norte coun-
ty for the necessary amount to start
the initial construction work on our
harbor, the faster will we realize the
fruits of healthy and lasting boom
1t seems to be certain that proper as
surance Of the construction OF the
Grants Pass-Crescent City railroad
within reasonable time" can be
given the government. Everyone OF
us qualified to vote at this coming
bond election should register at once
and we should see to 1t that every
other qualified person in our county
Is registered in time. No time Is to
be lost. Every effort should be made
to get the supervisors to pass the me-
cessary resolutions and take all 9TH
er proper measures that can be legal
ly taken on the 18th of this month.
when they meet in regular session.
Let's not wait until the president
signs the bill. II perchance there
should be slip and the bill did not
pass (Which is about as remote a
happening as We can think of we
can then drop the matter. On the
other hand. II we have prepared our
selves and have voted the necessary
bond issue, the federal government
will take special notice of us and OF
our project. Now is the psychoIog-
ical time to go ahead with the har-
Dor bond election. We can not af-
ford to lessen the good name and
business acumen Of our little county
by sluggishness and inactivity. Let's
everybody talk harbor bond election
for Del Norte county's improved
harbor at Crescent City and let's see
to 1t that our talk bears Immediate
and wholesome fruit.-Crescent City
