HOLDING BACK FOODS

Congress had been in session but
three days when discussion began on
the food price problem Represent
atives just home from their constit-
uencies realize the deep dissatisfac-
tion prevailing with the present sit
uation.
1t was charged in the House that
there are 100.000,O00 cans of beef and
SO, 100000 cans OF bacon being held
in the surplus stocks of the army,
which are not being released from
storage on the ground that to let them
out would cause glut of food pro-
ducts. Yet prices cntinue very high.
II is wise to hear both sides of a
story before making up ones mind
1t is possible that the government
feels 1t must have this reserve of food
to protect the army against any pos.

THE HIGH SCHOOL

To promote growth and increase
wealth in rural communities, an i'm.
provement in agricultural knowledge
is necessary To large number OF
boys, in towns and cities as we'll as
the country, agriculture offers the
most promising field of vocational EN-
ployment But to be successful farm
ers, and thus to increase the agricul
| tural wealth of the nation, and par
ticularly the section in which they
live, these boys muSt receive practical
agricultural training.
The United States Bureau of Educa
tion has just embarked upon a nation
wide campaign to foster agricultural
education in high schools, even city
high schools. 1t has found that few
high schools offer any courses in ag-
riculture; that they give far more
production and wealth creating.
THE keynote of agriculture instruc-
ton centers in the high schools says
the Bureau of Education in its report.
And these are it's suggestions:
Agriculture as a vocational subject
should be given prominent place in
the high school course of study. The
subject should form a center of
course rather than. be an elective i'm
many courses.
The agricultural instructor should
be employed for 12 moths each year
THE full time of the agricultural
instructor should be given to his sub
ject. and he should not be burdened
with other duties or routine.
"The following courses are recon-
mended: Kitchen garden. first year;
small animals. second year; farm an
imals, and farm crops. third year;
and fruit growing and market garden.
ing, fourth year-moving from the
simpler to the more complex forms"
The time is coming fast when therell
be more honor and glory in knowing
how to raise sheep, hogs and cattle.
corn. cotton or wheat. than in head
crammed full of Latin. Greek. algebra.
astronomy and ancient history. Also.
there1l be more money in knowledge
Of the former sort. High school Off
cials will have to get firm grip
upon that piece of philosophy, study
1t, digest 1t and swallow it. For our
high schools must become something
more and better than mere machines
to turn out students for doctor and
lawyer universities.

PLAN FOR THE FUTURE.

The Fourth Congressional District
is the most neglected district in the
state when it comes to having any
kind of Republican organization to
further the interests of the party. as
well as in the past of being equally as
incompetent in the way of candidates.
Heretofore no efforts have been put
forth in sufficient time to do any par
ticular good no matter who might
have been the candidate.
The time is none too far away for
some steps to be taken for the coming
campaign. A meeting of the commit
tee should be called and get down to
business.

and help build up working power,
which must have declined little thru
the period of war abstinence.
The whole situation in regard to
food profiteering needs very careful
investigation. The people believe that
great many dealers have grown very
rich out of exorbitant prices. 1t may
not be possible to get the money
back, but at least it could be shown
up who made it and perhaps how
they can be kept from making any
more of it.
