Increasing Food Supplies

California has apparently taken. a leaf out
Of the book of experience of Canada and Aus
traiia in providing homes On farm lands for its
returned and returning soldiers and sailors.
Governor Stephens has signed measure passed
during the recent session of the legislature OF
that state providing for the complete protection
OF the entire Sacramento valley from food, and
the redemption of every acre of its land for
farming. Nearly 100000 acres OF farming
lands, or a domain about equaling the size of
the original Oklahoma, which was opened to
settlement April %, 1889, are being reclaimed
from food dangers and from such overAows as
have come to the Sacramento river basin in
past years. -
The land is said to be the richest tract, area
considered, remaining untitled in the United
States. A portion of it, titled for the first time
last year, added $35,OO0,O00 to the value OF Cali
fornia crops The value of this years crop is
estimated at S65000O00. There will be homes
COR all of the California soldiers who want to try
.arming Buyers OF farms of 40 acres or more
will have their land plowed and prepared
through the agency of immense tractor outfits.
Houses, according to their liking, will be built
and sold with the land, and in many cases seed
and farm tools will go in with the transaction,
the entire purchase price to come out OF the
crops raised on the land during long series OF
sears.-St Louis Globe-Democrat

Public's Right in Time of Strike.

A novel yet important suit has just been
started in Pittsburgh, where the public prose-
eutor sues the receivers for the street railway
company and members of street car mems union
for $2O35OO07S damages, alleged to have been
borne by the public through reason of a three
day strike. The amount of money involved is
of little consequence compared to the principle.
1t has long been a mooted point as to whether
the cessation of work anywhere, incident to a
strike, does not adversely affect the interest of
the public. In the case of public service the
damage is direct. Moral obligation rests on the
employees as we'll as on the management of any
public utility to maintain uninterrupted service
If this can be transmitted into legal oblga-
ton, then some more effective method of set
thing wage disputes must be provided. In the
Adamson law the principle of wage ixation by
law was sustained. so far as interstate commerce
carriers are concerned. Whether this may be
extended to include intrastate or mural transpor
tation is not determined, but the presumption
is in favor of the affirmative The outcome OF
the Pittsburgh suit may lead to new course in
all manner of wage disputes.

Rirth Statistics.


The United States census bureaus
preliminary report for 1917 shows
that in the birth registration area of
the United States 1,353,792 infants
were born alive in 1917, representing
birth rate Of 24.6 per thousand of
population. The total number of
deaths-in the same area was 776,222,
or AL per thousand. The births ex-
ceeded the deaths by 74.4 per cent.
For every state in the registration
area, for practically all the cities and
for nearly all the counties, the births
exceeded the deaths, in most cases
by considerable proportions. The
mortality rate for infants under l
year Of age averaged 93.S per thou
sand living births. The birth rate
for the entire birth registration area
fell below that for 1916 by two
tenths Of one per thousand popula-
ton, but the death rate was less by
six tenths of one per thousand than
in 1916. Thus the excess Of the birth
rate over the death rate for 1917,
which amounted to 10,5 per thou
sand, was somewhat greater than the
corresponding excess for 1916, 10. ]
per thousand, although it fell slight
ly below that for 1915, 1919 per thou
sand. If the birth and death rate
preJailing in any one of these three
years were to remain unchanged, ant
if no migration were to take plac'
to or from the area to-which the.
relate, it's population would increas.
at the rate of slightly more than
per cent per annum, or little NOR
than 10 per cent in decade. TIL
would be about half the rate, 81 pc

FLYING UPSIDE DOWN IN A FOG.

Describing the difficulties OF their perilou.
fight the two daring aviators who made the
first transatlantic air voyage without stopping
declare that they were frequently in danger Of
losing their course because of the almost in
escapablc clouds which they could neither sur.
mount nor dive under and that more than once
they found themselves flying upside down in
the fog. In this case, the skillful flyers sue
ceeded nevertheless in keeping their direction
and reaching their goal, but how about the great
number of usually intelligent and clear thinking
people who on the many pressing subjects of
vital world Importance are, fguratively speak
ing, likewise flying upside down in fog and
merely circling about without bearings?
In the chaos and confusion of the aftermath
of the war the familiar landmarks are obscured
and sense Of perspective and proportion is
duled. What formerly seemed reasonably clear
and convincing is now beset with hesitation and
doubt People who would ordinarily be self
possessed are not sure of anything but grope
about half willing to try experiments which, in
other days, they would Immediately have re-
jected and repudiated as wholly subversive Of
progress and social order.
The aviator emerged from the cloud and
reached his appointed destination by getting
back to the safe and sane first principles, to the
compass and the stars, to things as unchange-
able and dependable as any moving things can
be- This is what the people whose minds are be-
clouded and visions have been shortened will
also have to do. They must pierce the smoke
