Importance Of Good Food

its results will not be so widespread that
other aid will not be necessary for the
country's farmers. A rise in prices received
for the farmer is necessary if he is to in
crease his ncomeaand enjoy the prosperity
that much Of the rest of the nation is now
enjoying.
Since another round of initiation is
expected this fall, it is absolutely essential
for the farmer to receive higher prices for
his crops. Otherwise, the spiral which has
engulfed the farmer-that is rising costs
and lower prices-which has continued for
four or five years, will continue to put
small farmers out of business and keep
hundreds of thousands of others on the
brink Of bankruptcy.

First, it should be remembered that all
sorts of plans have been made, at consider
able cost, to effect an accurate warning
system This warning system is now in
effect, and is to be tested for the first time
this season. In view of the melancholy ex-
periences of recent years. there is reason
to believe that the course of hurricans will
be charted more accurately this year.
Therefore, only small segment of the
population Of the country will be affected,
and no one need hide in cellar, or build
himself bomb shelter, at this stage of the
game. Nor should he fill up the bathtub
with water at the onset of a hurricane, as
has been suggested, unless he plans to take

OF course, there is no proof that the two

Farm Prices

FTER six months, the slightly upward

The Agriculture Department has announced
prices We're down one per cent
Prices were lower for fruits, animals
and vegetables. among other things. Prices
for milk, chickens and potatoes were up.
Though prices were one per cent lower
than they were in MIDI une, the J ulv report

secretary of Agriculture True Morse

prices for the rest of this year will be high
