DRY RULING STARTS.R0R
 OVER SHIPS

DUBLIN, Dec. 5.-A prominent American official in Ireland recently complained to me of the unfair propa- ganda which is not alone appearing in the British papers. but also in the Irish against the American lines. Every little incident Is splashed and everything in connection with the pro hibition of liquor aboard Is given a prominent position in the papers. Re gently he went on to say. "A story was given great prominence of where there was rush ashore when one of the boats, the President Polk, came to Queenstown; the passengers were all anxious to give $20 for drink of whiskey." I have inquired into the in cident myself and found that there was not suggestion of truth in it. While the, propaganda campaign against American ships is probably not so great as my friend suggests, there is something in it. Ameri- can ships have recently captured lot of the Irish traffic trade.

WOMEN'S CLUBS BACK
 STAR SPANCLED BANNER

CHICAGO, Dec. 5,-Angered at re- peated efforts from some sources to repudiate "The Star Spangled Banner as the national song of the United States, the music division of the Gen eral Federation of Women's Clubs has broadcasted instructions to the chair men of it's sub-organizations to sup port Francis Scott Keys famous com position.
 Two principal objections to the song, the letter points out, have been that the music is taken from "Anacroon in Heaven" an old English drinking song popular at the time of the American Revolution, and, secondly, that the third verse contains the words. breathing hatred in our ally, Great Britain"

CORN ISNOH
 MAIN FOOD
 SUPPLY US.

1 WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-Corn has supplanted wheat as the principal food supply of the United States, ac- cording to 8 comprehensive review just completed by the Department of Agriculture.
 The vital Importance sof the corn crop and it's relation to American pros perity has been made the subject of an intensive study by the Department Of Agriculture's experts, and the find ings put in the 1921 Yearbook, just published which, in graphic suvery, presents the story of corn in all it's details.
 Corn is produced by nearly 5,000,- 900 of the approximately 6,500,00 farms in the United States Nearly 100 100000 acres of farm land is de- voted to the production of this single crop, which, in recent years, has reached more than 5000, 1000, ,000 bush els. The value of the crop during the war reached more than $3,0OO,- 100000, or one-eighth of the present national debt. The 1920 crop, the larg- est ever produced, had value of $2,- 150, 100000; the 1921 crop, $1,3O3, ,o0O,- 900.
 Forty per cent of the total American corn crop is fed to swine on farms, 20 per cent is fed to horses and mules on farms, and 15 per cent to cattle on farms. Only 10 per cent is used directly for human food, but S5 per cent is used through the consumption of meat and meat products.
 The Departments figures and charts on corn production shows that the United States produces approximately three-fourths of the corn crop of the world. Less than half of the corn land in the corn belt is allotted to corn in any given season, and more than 50 per cent of the crop land is occupied by small grains and hay. The year book discusses in detail the things that determine the amount of corn produced in the United States I-Q) the acreage planted and CD the acre yield
 While the acreage planted is de- termined by farmers" the review says s"the acre yield is determined by the quantity of the soil, the weather, in , sect pests, and plant diseases. The estimated loss caused by common smut alone during the four-year-per iod, 1917-1920, is placed at about S0,- 100000 bushels annually, or nearly 3 per cent of the average crop. Of in- sect pests, the corn-ear worm, where abundant, causes a loss of at least 2 per cent of the grain on the ears attacked. The European corn morer also threatens to take heavy toll of the crop.''
 l A chapter devoted to financing corn production states that the production of corn is financed with less use of borrowed capital than is the case with heavy toll of the crop"
 "The fundamental factors that will determine the profits in corn produc- tion in the future, as they have in the past, are supply and demand" the re- view states.
 l Production costs must be kept at a minimum. In planning operations
 farmers should try to make such re-
 adjustments as will enable them to
 sell corn at profit even at com l. paratively low price leval.
 "The future demand for corn de-
 pends on many things, most import I ant of which is the demand fer meat"

his arm and ran for safety, escaping
what seemed certain death.
