Department of Agriculture
Sees Sure World Place
for American Farming
Opening Probable Demand for Food
Live Stock More Farms, and
More Feed o Produce Meat Animals.

Washington. ID. C.-There is no
cause for alarm rs to the future abil-
ity of the United States to hold its due
place in the trade of the world. and
especially as to the ability of Ameri-
can agriculture to maintain its posi-
tion in the world readjustment that
must follow the ending of the war.
This is the Judgment of the United
States Department of Agriculture, eX-
pressed in statement issued today
from the Office of the Secretary.
A detailed survey of the agricul
tural situation shows the impossible
ity of forecasting the conditions that
will obtain when the 1919 crops are
matured. but 1t Is pointed out that the
markets of the world are opening up
for American products and that a
considerable demand from European
countries for foodstuffs is almost as
Sured for a year or more.
The signing of the armistice. the
Department of Agriculture points ont,
found the United States with fairly
large stocks of foods. but with smaller
than usual stocks of feeds. In re-
sponse to increased needs for food,
many farmers plowed up permanent
pastures and other grass lands needed
for live stock and planted them to
grain crops, while others broke their
rotation systems and planted the
same hand to grain several years in
succession, thus reducing the fertility.

live stock should find a place on a
larger number of farms. These read
justments appear to be necessary in
order to meet the still urgent demand
for meats and fats, as well as to re-
store sound farm practice.
A wise livestock program, the de-
partment concludes after reviewing
all conditions, will involve maintain
ing the number of horses and mules
without material increase, a normal
increase in the number Of dairy cows
and dairy products, a normal increase
in the number of cattle, a conservative
policy with respect to increasing the
number of swine until the relative

Many Factors Affect Wheat

The indicated plant program Is not
quite so definite. The proper policy
as to wheat depends upon compli-
Gated set of conditions, but it seems
certain that the farmers of the United
States will be justified in maintaining
their acreage of corn, oats and barley,
large productions. of which are neces-
sary to maintain normal live-stoc
production.
1t appears desirable to increase
the production of hay by about % per
cent. The department urges those
who intend to maintain home gardens
to plan to meet the needs of the fam.
lily rather than to produce crops fol

WOMEN ARE TO WEAR WAIST
COATS

Waistcoats and waistcoat blouses
are among the newer fashions from
Paris and are one more of the old
fashioned models which have been
adapted to present-day styles.
This particular fashion was taken
from the clothes worn by the men
of long ago.
No less varied and fanciful are
the waiStcoats of today. They are
made in the most delicate of chiffons,
as well as in such wool materials as
these war times offer. Some of them
consist of front section of metal
brOcade which shows only when the

sCARFS A FEATURE OF SPRING
STYLES

Scarfs are to be q feature of the
spring wardrobe and also, of what are
known as Palm Beach fashions, so it
is said; and the hat with scarf at
tached is appearing in a variety of
styles. 1t is thought that it will be
very popular.
1t also is said that favorite way
to wear the separate scarf will not be
flung carelessly around the shoulders,

as so many wear it, but rather with
the ends brought down and through
the belt.
A scarf of navy blue crepe, very
fine jersey, banded with plaid silk,
was worn in that fashion and, with
1t, soft little hat of the plaid, with
gay scarlet buckle for trimming.

A LEAGUE OF HEARTS.

"A League of Hearts was the sub
ject of the Rosh HashOnah sermon of
Rabbi Nathan Krass at the Central
Synagog. He said in part
III the bruised ard bleeding ma
lions of the world are to recuperatt,
and IL war is to be no more. 1t will
not be due to any mechanical or dip
lomatic cOntrivance. A league of all
the nations is certainly-Alesirable. But
there must be concurrentiy league
of hearts. If the nations are forced
to form coalition its binding power
is questionable. There ought to he

ual lines. Great evangelists ought to
tour the world preaching the doctrine
Of fraternity and comfy. The Jew
stands for the spirit Of human service.

On this New Year may our message
