POPULATION and Food

A PPARENTLY for the lack of something
"A better to do, Princeton professor
formulates the conclusion from
study of the census that the United States
will be obliged to import at least nifty per
cent of it's food supply in 200 years II 1mml-
grafton and population-groWth continue at
the present rate.
Taking issue with the learned professor,
the editor of the New. York Tribune produces
statistics to show that from 1850 to 1910,
during which the United States experienced
the most rapid growth of any country in the
worlds history, food production ran steadlIy
ahead of population.
In that period the population increased
400 per cent, while corn production increased
$50 per cent wheat production increased 6S5
per cent, meat production increased '46O per
cent, and other food and feed crops increased
in proportion.
OF course, nobody now living will survive
to test the accuracy of the Princeton pro-
fessor's prophecy, which renders it quite safe
to venture prediction 200 years in advance.
Whatever may be the position Of other
sections of the country as regards food pro-
duction the South will have plenty to sat-
isfy her needs and something left over. The
South is just beginning to come to herself in
food and feed production. Georgia last year
produced eighty million bushels of corn, or
more. The fact that her market for the
surplus is difficult to find and prices discour-
aging does not alter the fact that her food
producing power is comparatively undevel-
oped as yet.
When other sections have reached their
maximum food-producing capacity, the South
will be comparatively a newcomer in the
field. For half century the South has been
concentrating practically the whole OF her
productive effort upon cotton, and has ex-
pended good part of her cotton proceeds IN
the purchase of food and feed supplies from
other parts of the country.
Now the South is changing. The boil
weevil has compelled Southern farmers to
limit cotton acreage and to grow food and
feed crops in sufficient quantity, at least, to
supply their own requirements The South
as food-producing section might be said to
he a mammoth reservoir as vet untouched.

Mr.. Ford's Offer

FIR. HENRY FORDS offer to the Gov
N eminent for the development of the
49, Muscle Shoals water-power has had
some good results whether Congress accepts
it or not.
In the first place, it has focused the at
tention Of the agricultural interests upon the
subject of cheap fertilizers by means or nj
trogen taken from the air. On this subject
there seems to be conflict of opinion among
experts, but the controversy itself is calcu-
lated to clarity the issue. Mr.. Ford at least
has the weight of Mr.. Edlson's opinion on MS
side that Muscle Shoals, if fully developed,
will produce vast quantity of nitrogen at
comparatively small cost.
In the second place. Mr.. Ford has called
attention to the industrial possibilities OF
the Southeast to be attained by full ut1l1za-
ton of it's enormous water-power resources.
On this point alone he has rendered this sec
ton most valuable service. Whether the
Government leases him the project on the
basis he submits or some other basis, he has
given the Southeast large amount of very
valuable advertising with regard to its in
dustrial future.
There is no doubt that the offer of Mr..
Ford is in a class by itself. 1t appears to have
been the only offer submitted of sufficient
consequence to warrant transmission to Con-
gress by Secretary of War Weeks.
There is no doubt, also, of the financial
ability Of Mr.. Ford to put through his prof.
ect; and none regarding his ability as an in
dustrial organizer and producer. His achieve
ments in automobile production have stamp
ed him as one of the great industrial
geniuses of history, while his public spirit is
everywhere recognized.
Mr. Ford has the money and the brains to
carry out this project scale of the great
magnitude which it requires, and if his offer
is not sufficiently a compensation to the
Government for the millions already expend-
ed at Muscle Shoals, it would seem reason
able to suppose that he and the Government
can "get together
Whether they do or not, the offer has had
the effect already of opening the eyes of the
public and of Government officials to the
stupendous possibilities of Muscle Shoals,
with the result that Secretary Weeks advise
Congress to make provision for Governmental
development of the power in the event the
offer should be declined.

has removed itself from the frying
pan into the fire. by exchanging Senator
Kenyon for Mr.. Howard.
The growth of the agricultural power in
legislative affairs is one of the most remark
able things in recent political history. Com
menting on it, the New York World says:
1.-Two years ago Mr.. Howard was
farmer in Iowa. dirt farmer, though
he has a college degree. Now he sits in
Washington and tells the Administration
where it gets off. Behind his words is
the grim conviction of several millions
of men who have had an unusual run of
hard luck lately that the Government has
never paid enoughs attention to agricul-
ture and that when favors are being
distributed in the future the farmer will
realize on a few campaign promises or
know the reason why. The disconcerting
phase of the matter is the absolute sin
certify of Mr.. Howard and his followers
q ID the absence of radicalism in their
platform. They are content with the
economic system as it stands, but they
want the business overhead reduced and
voice in decisions as we'll as larger
share in returns"
