mo FOOD PROGRAM
YET" CABLES HOOVER

No definite food program can yet be
laid down is the message cabled by
Hoover after a week of investigation
in Europe. Pending the determination
of a complete program, he arranged
before his departure for the purchase
and dispatch of two hundred and
seventy thousand tons of food to meet
the most urgent demands. The first
of the ships carrying these supplies
has been reported as passing the
Gibraltar on its way to feed southern
Europe.
Negotiations with the Allied gov
ernments regarding shipping, finances
and organization are still in progress, .
cables Hoover. "The liberated terri
tories are daily and urgently calling
upon the United States for food.
Until definite program can be de-
cided upon, we must direct all our
present efforts to maintaining an atti-
tude of mind which will prepare the
public for more definite conservation
when the time comes for requesting
it."
"Our point of view has now been
changed from war necessity to a
humanitarian appeal. The need for
voluntary cooperation as distin-
guished from enforced regulation be-
comes increasingly apparent"

Celery seed should be sown in the
hotbed or window box about the time
of the last frosts in the spring. The
seed is very slow in terminating and
the plants are small and delicate.
They are improved by transplanting
at least twice.
Celery requires deep, rich, moist
soil with plenty of well-rotted manure
or fertilizer and frequent shallow cui-
tivation. In the garden, celery may be
planted after some early crop, such as
lettuce, radishes or peas. AS soon as
the plants attain considerable size the
leaves should be drawn together and
little soil compacted about the base
of the plant to hold it upright. If the
blanching is done with earth, care
should be taken that the hearts of the
plants do not become filed. Boards,
paper or other material may be used
for blanching, but earthing up will pro-
duce the finest flavor.
Celery may be stored and kept for
winter use by placing it in old hotbeds,
and covering it with fodder or straw;
in trenches covered with coarse ma
nure or straw; in outdoor cellars; or
in the storage room in the basement.
Celery will test the skill of the gar
dener about as severely as any crop he
may choose to grow, but no garden
product pays better for painstaking
care and effort than this crop.

REMOVE ALL RESTRICTIONS
ON CONSUMPTION OF SUGAR
Households and Public Eating Places
Are No Longer Limited and Sugar
Bowls May Return to Tables.

Every restriction on the sale and
use of sugar has been removed except
that on the price, and in no case may
retailers charge more than eleven
cents pound.
Grocers need no longer keep sugar
books to record the purchases of their
customers as housewives are no
longer limited to four pounds a
month--they may have all they wish
and proprietors of hotels and other
public eating places are no longer
obliged to purchase their supplies on
the basis of four pounds for ninety
meals.
The sugar bowl can reappear on the
table, frosted cakes may be served,
and homemade candy cooked on the
kitchen stove.
''There are no limits on your use of
sugar." said Magnus Swenson, Food
Administrator for Wisconsin, except
those imposed by your own conscience.
You know the needs of Europe and are
familiar with our motto Go slowly on
all staples"

The red garden beet may be grown
in any good soil, but rich sandy loan
will give the best results. The seed
may be sown in spring as soon as the
ground is In condition to work. They
may be planted two weeks before dam
ger of frost is past. If for horse cul-
tivation, the rows should be from PA
to 3 feet apart, or wide enough for the
horse to walk between the rows. If for
hand cultivation the rows need not be
more than II to Is inches apart. The
usual custom is to SOW the seed some
what closer together than the boetS
are desired, and after the beets are TIP.
to thin them, from time to time, using
the ones removed for green's until the
beets finally are some 4 to inches
apart in the rows.
It should be remembered that what
is commonly termed beet seed is really
a seed ball, containing several indi-
vidual seeds, and for this reason each
one of these balls may bring from 3
to plants. All of these plants except
one should be removed during the thin
ming process. Two ounces of the seed
are sufficient to plant a 100-foot row.
Beets should be planted in success
sion at intervals of about two weeks
during the summer so as to- have
supply Of young tender beets at all
times. The beets should be used be-
fore they exceed diameter of 2 inches
as the young beets. of moderate size
are of much better quality than those
allowed to make a greater growth.
The beets that remain unused during
the latter part of the season should be-
allowed to grow until frost, pulled,
trimmed and stored for winter use. il
not desired for table use, they make
an excellent stock or poultry feed.--U.

NOVEL INTRODUCTION.


The other days (says a writer in a
London newspaper | witnessed a
pathetic incident while washing my
hands in an hotel. Two young Of
fcers entered, strangers to.each 9TH
er. one with his left coat sleeve
empty, the other with his right arm
in sling. They looked at each 9TH
er, and one Of them said with some
diffidence: TShall we wash hands to-
gether?" Whereupon each washed
the others hand, dried it, and after
this novel introduction they went off
to lunch together.

The soil for cucumberS should be a
rich sandy loan, rather moist but not
wet. The seeds may be planted in
berry baskets or on sods in the hotbed
and these transferred to the open
ground, or the seed may be placed d.
rectly in the ground. Considerable
time will be saved by starting the
plants in the hotbed. In either case
they should not be placed in the open
until the ground has warmed up,
which will be about four weeks after
the last killing frost in the spring.
They may be planted in hills feet
apart each way or drilled in rows z
feet apart in the rows. 1t is a good
plan to use an abundance Of well-rot-
ted manure in the holes or in the rows.
Cucumbers should receive frequent
shallow cultivation until the vines be-
gin to run freely; after this very little
cultivation is required. They are ready
for use as soon as large enough, and
no fruit should be allowed to ripen on
the vines. It is advisable to spray
cucunbers with Bordeaux mixture, as
they are quite liable to be injured by
diseases.

diseases affecting cucumbers and rem
edies for them, see Farmers Bulletin
856, entitled Control of Disease and
Insect Enemies Of the Home Vegetable
Garden. ~. S. Department OF Agri-
culture.

BIG INCREASE IN 1918
PEA PACK OF WISCONSIN

The pea-pack of Wisconsin for 1918
was nearly 100000 cases greater
than its pack for last year. The ma
tional production reaches total
equivalent to 1O,89S,222 cases, each OF
which contains "a number two cans.
There were considerable losses re.
ported in several states. The Utah
pack decreased over 100000 from last
year and that of New Jersey and Della
ware over 100000 Michigan states a
loss of about $4,000 cases and Cali
fornia nearly 100000 cases.

NO SAFE CONDUCTS NEEDED
FOR BELGIUM RELIEF SHIPS

Ships chartered by the Commission
for Relief in Belgium will no longer
be required to have safe conducts IN
order to assure freedom from attack.
For the first time since the German
government established submarine
war zone in European waters, vessels
carrying food and clothing to the
stricken inhabitants of Belgium viii
be allowed to travel unniolested.
The supplies of food and clothing
which we are sending them to keep
them alive during the winter are GER
tain to arrive without danger of mis-
hap, and their distribution among the
refugees can be effected without in
superable difficulty.

NO GRADING OF POTATOES;

Suitable Clothing Important.

"Still another factor in the produc-
ton of colds, pneumonia and other re-
spiratory diseases is carelessness or ig-
norance of the people regarding suit
able clothing during the seasons when
the weather suddenly changes, sitting
in warm rooms too heavily dressed or,
what is even more common, especially
among women, dressing so lightly that
windows are kept closed in order to be
comfortably warm. This is very in
furious practice.
