prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
Here is an interesting bit Of farm
ing logic that looks sound, but the con-
clusion reached is absolutely false:
"Oats," the argument runs, "are
raised principally as feed for horses
and mules.
'"The enormous increase in the num-
Der Of automobiles and trucks In the
country is making the horse and mule
a back number.
Therefore, with fewer horses there
is need for less oats, SO why not plant
less acreage to oats or stop planting
this crop altogether?"
The fallacy is twofold. The number
Of horses and mules on farms, If de-
~creasing, is doing SO at a rate so slow
as to have little or no effect on the
oat crop.
Furthermore. statistics show that
American farmers are not cutting
down the total oat acreage but are
actually increasing 1t.
Oats Proportion Grows.
This Is not all. The proportion OF
oats to corn and wheat has increased
steadily in the past generation. Half
q century ago In every 100 acres OF
improved farm land there was an
average of less than five acres sown
to oats. In each succeeding decade
Of the last so years the average has
been increasing. During the nast ten

London on May q which said that

This dispatch also said that Italys

"In reality" said the Premier, "the
work of rehabilitation is progressing

army is everywhere respected; strikes
have everywhere virtually ceased, and
