PRINCIPAL SOURCE
 OF FOOD IS CORN
Has Come to Be Nations Most
 Important Farm Crop

Washington. Nov. 22.--Corn, the Red Mans gift 10 tho White Man. has come to be the nations most import ant farm crop, Consumed either d. rectly or in the form of meat and other animal products. 1t is the prin- cipal source of the nations food sup ply. The 1921 yearbook of the De- partment of Agriculture shows just to what extent the three billion bush el crop forms the basis of the live stock industry. Forty per cent of the crop is fed to swine on farms, 20 per cent to horses and mules on farms, and Is per cent to cattle on farms. Only ten per cent is used direct for human food.
 Corn was one of the most import ant gifts America made to the rest of the world. The United States now produces about three-fourths of the worlds crop. That corn also is an important crop in Argentina, Brazil, Mexico and some of the southern European countries, Is shown in the report.
 Weather insects and plant diseases have q great deal to do with regulat- ing the size of the crop in the United States. The estimated loss caused by common smut alone during the period 1s17-1920 was placed at about so millions of bushels annually Of in- sect pests the corn-ear worm, where abundant, causes loss of at least per cent of the grain on the ears at tackled. The European corn borer also threatens to take heavy toll.
 It is stated that the production of the corn crop is financed with less borrowed capital than is the case with other staple farm crops. The reason for this is that the farmers income is distributed throughout the year more evenly than is the case in. many other sections, and because the direct investment in the crop consists more of the farmers own labor and less of purchased material and equipment than is the case in many other crops.
 The yearbook, which is obtainable through Congressional representa- tives from the department, contains much data of interest and value to producers, including chapters on pro- duction costs and figures, financing. and advice on production according to seasonal supply and demand to act toward preventing future crises for the corn grower.

At meeting of the Boy Scouts at the home of Donald Foster Friday evening, they discussed the question of establishing the meeting place of the local troop on Third Street in one of the houses owned by Charles Mat theWs. Considerable repairing is re- quired, and the funds in the treasury were found to be insufficient. If the cabin were taken over for the de- sired purpose, the money would have to be donated by the public.
 The Scouts enjoyed ten minutes of drill and were gratified by the good turn reports.
 The refreshments were such as to meet the demands of the nine hungry boys and their Scoutmaster.

They have some primary problems, how ever, such as the progressive eXten- sion of the sewer system, the improve ment of sereets and parks, and how to give impetus to the home-building movement.
 There's talk of the need of build ing and loan association and all the "citv Dads" are said to be in for it, "world without end," as one of them said, to provide scenec homes for new people.

COCAINE SMUGGLERS IN
 FRANCE BECOME ADROlT

PARIS, April 17.-Despite the strict est lookout exercised by the police force, inland and on the frontiers, traf- licking in cocaine goes on as ever in France. Now that it is not safe to smuggle the drug in aeroplanes other means had to be found, and some ot those employed are most ingenious and have so far escaped police notice. Mix ing cocaine with ordinary face powder is one form. Other means used are hollow heels in shoes and boots, hol' low canes and umbrella handles Cheap plaster dolls are also used. These articles, filled with cocaine and often opiuhm, are sent out of the country or received into France, and only those initiated know about their secrets. A password is, however, ne cessary to buy them.

The Test performance Of q new
Czftiss Pursuit Plane has caused a
sensation in the Army ard Navy SER
vices Ever since the Pulitzer Race

expectation.
In many respects, this aeropisne Is
q departure from precedent. It uses
the same 0uttiss motor used In the

with wing radiators, the most radical
