INTEREST IN SHEEP INCREASES

There is an increased interest in
growing sheep both for mutton and
wool, according to r12ort just re-
ceived by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture from the sheep
extension husbandman in Indiana.
This feeling, according to specialists
of the Department Of Agriculture,
prevails in many other states. The
increase in production is being OBJ
tanned from the saving of eve lambs
and the introduction of good stock
from the western range.

u. S. Must Mobilize
For Food Production
By r. J. Spra que. }

Americans are tradltiOnally sup
posed to increase production instead
of limiting consumption, when short
age appears, but We are adlured TO
squeeze the penny till Abe Lincoln
and Old Lo Writhe in their gr3 YES.
With this world food crisis on hand.
we ought to economic and abstain
but we ought also to drive Tor III
creased production We have Won
derful system for stimulating house
hold economy and We are eating up
all our roughage all of which IS good
for us. but we must work harder still
to produce more staple goods for our
own sakes as well as for the world.
The two great problems this year
are farm labor and fertilizer. but tn-
success of the crops next fall will be
determined mostly by the amount OF
farm help to be obtained. Sufficient
farm help in part makes up Tor lack
of fertilizer, and the farm help Ques-
ton can be TO a degree solved, where
as the fertilizer problem cannot. Why
does not the Legislature authorize
town committees to mobilize the
available labor force for farm help
We are told that food will win
tue W d. tlSO lIIol W SlIOGib OuH
nothing that will interfere with win
ming the war, but we are still afraid
to tell men that they must Nork on
ly at that which will win the war;we
tell them they shall not eat wheat
and meat, but we do not tell them
that they must help produce food
stuffs. Much is said about women
going to the farms, and thai would
lasting benefit and make pictu esque
articles for magazines, but the coun-
try is full of abie-bodied men engag-
ed in nonessential activities that
would make good farm help and save
the crops, the Allies, and the great
cause.
We may abstain from buying non
essential articles and in the course
of years the makers Of these things
would have to get other jobs, and
some of them would go to farming
But Kaiserism will not wait for us to
unravel THAT tangled skein of eco
nomic forces. We must nave the
crops next fall and the cause viii be
lost if we don't get them. War or
no war, the world will be furnishing
for every edible thing next winter.
We have corscripted our farm
boys to go thousands of miles to
France and take their chances with
the boches, but shall we refuse to
conscript the ablebodied men who
are selling ribbons, lemon drops Or
soda water and send them mile out
of town to the farms in order that
the soldiers over there and their fam
lilies over here may have enough to
eat?
We have modified the choice stu
dents from our colleges and sent
them into the war with brass bands
and prayers, but we place no require
ments of food production III vacation
times upon those left behind Many
of our college professors spent last
summer driving Fords, playing golf

not wait.
Every town should make drive
to produce Il stated per cent. OF food
more than last year, whatever that
might have been. This cannot be
done by preaching, and letting
George do il. we must have deh-
mite goals. good organization and
power to conscrIpt if necessary. We
have seen the Young Mems Christian
Association and Red Cross make sue
ceSsful drives for definite goals and
with good organization and into aS-
ricultural production We should try
to get more of that dynamic spirit.
Let the Legislature give locat
committees pow er TO cOnScrlpt men
where they may think best. With
such a power in their hands they may
never need to use it, but can make
sufficient adjustments without the
application of force. Both citizens
and aliens should come under the

ships. stoves and other soft jOhs.the
women can come in and fill the pla-
ces temporarily Much of the farm
help needed is only temporary and at
special periods in the agricultural
year: but. unless the farmer knCWS
that such will be possible he will lot
plan for the desirable increase IN
crops. Here and there skilled agri-
cultural wage-earners engaged in
other occupations need to be tempo
rarily drafted and substitutes found
for them by the committee. The To-
cal committee ought to account for
every man and boy in town capable
of useful work in food production.
OF course, there are many prob
lens connected with such a plan, but
intelligence and good spirit can
solve them all TO such degree THAT
we can get help for the manless
farms and hopeless farmers. The
town committee and county bureau
should get into touch with every far
mer of the community, encourage
him to increase production, help
solve his problem of agriculture,
capital and labor and bring the de-
mand and supply of labor together in
an effective way with powei. to get
results.
AS to what part these various ag-
encies should each do l will not try
to say. The county bureaus have
done great work already, but the
town committees can get much
greater move on with suitable au-
thority.
How much do you hate the Kai
ser? Do you hate him enough to
hire out with an operating farmer
this summer and help feed the world

We must fight kaiserized efficien-
cy with patriotic. efficient democ-
racy. Democracy must become eff
cient or die in the struggle for eXis-
tence.

the county the public needs that will
require the appropriation of money by
the County Commissioners during the
fiscal year beginning May LIST, next,

the estimates for the said fiscal year
will be made, and no other money can
be appropriated. except for each esti-
mate. which must be made in April
All persons, therefore, should commu-
nicate to the said Board OF Estimates

corning matters about which money
will have to be appropriated.

weeds, worms and weather and now
face a more hopeless situation than
ever, apparently without promise of
cooperative mobilization of the la
Dor forces. The farmer has tie land,
tools, teams and experience, and help
for him means 10 times as much pro-
duction as puttering around the
backyard garden.
Why don't We make crops certain
by sufficient notifications? What
are we waiting for? What have we
to hope for? Are we waiting till
100000 of our brave boys shall die
in the n,uds Of No Mans Land before
we get in earnest? Are We Waiting
till hunger shall arouse millions of
Bolshevik anarchists in America, and
start us on the Russian way to
chaos? Without sufficient food the
war will be lost, and not only that,
but much of the glorious body of hu-
man rights that have become insti-
tuted in American civilization may
be sunk in a mire of anarchiSt-con-
munist revolution.
The scarcity and high prices of
food are the most prolific causes of
strikes and unrest, demands for
higher wages and all forms of in
dustrial and political discomfort. We
can stand any amount of military de-
feat and loss; they would but stlffen
our backbOnes, tighten our nerves
and stimulate heroism. but hunger
among the weaker classes releases
the wolf and the pig in human ma
ture, and endangers every accom-
plishment and ideal of our ciyiliZa-
ton.
Our soft-handed patriots need to
get into the field under experienced
direction and with suitable equip
ment where their labor will count
for increase. Consumption of the
idle and uselessly employed for tenn
porary farm labor can be carried out
with very little trouble if enforced
with good sense and careful man
agement. The people are all ready
and willing for this if our leaders
will ask for it and make proper reg
ulations. The world needs it, the
people hope fo~ it and we are ali
ready to fall i'll line Every strong
man ought to be able to give good
reasons if he should be found out of

No Pro6teering
In Strap Molasses

In view of the Importance of black
strap molasses in the manufacture of
feeding stuffs, the United States
Food Administration has decided to
prevent profiteering in this commod-
ity. Mr.. Hoover has, therefore, made
the announcement that the Admins
tration, after an investigation of the
cost of the manufacture of black
strap molasses, has determined that
any sale of imported black strap mo-
lasses or of black strap mOlasses pro
duced in the United States from i'm
ported cane, at price of more than
eighteen cents a gallon will conSti-
tute an unjust and unreasonable
profit, and that every such sale will
be scrutiniZed carefully with view
to the revocation of the license of
the seller.
More and more it becomes plain
that this is not war for anybody to
make money out of.
There will be time enough to talk
about peace after the cause Of HUI
man libert yis victorious.
