Food Preparedness Campaign Seed Time — Wluit lo Plant — Now la the planting time. Within the next 30 days M will put into the ground the seed that will determine whether everyone has plenty of food this winter or not. The selfish in terest of each of us is to product as much as possible of the food that we ami our dependents will require. Thai applies in the city, where our resources are limited to the back yard, and In the country, as well. Th's is the safe thing at a time like ibis. Produce just as much as you can of the things that you need for yourself. Then take your surplus ground and produce food staples. Kirn the man with large acreage thai means food cereals. To the loan with a few acres, it means other crops. To many that will mean Potatoes Seed potatoes are now unreason ably high, owing to a short crop last year in the east. The rule in pre vious years has been that when po tato seed is high, everybody plants more than usual and the prices drop at harvest time. We may need more potatoes this year than ever before. Owing to high wheat prices and wheat short age, we may have to use much potato flour in our bread. A potato short use in the east would, of course, take any surplus that we could produce, bill if the east comes up with a full crop, the in it ii in this country who has gambled by betting unreason ably on the potato market will be very sorry. We do not make such extensive us.- of potatoes as many other people. We are told that Ger many, with its limited urea, lias been producing an average crop of neatly fifty million tons a year of potatoes, while this country only grows one fifth of that amount. A safe rule is to grow all you will need and some for sale, how much for sale depend ing on how much of a gamble you are willing to take on the market.

The wars of the past bare been fought nil a diet consisting largely of Pork ami Ileum* If your soil and climate are adapt ed to growing beans, you have every reason '<> plant all you can handle. There is no crop now more in de mand. Ways will be found to trans port i hem to the armies, even though the spuds have been evaporated or fed i" i lie pigs. Every citizen, every family, every seed dealer, having peas or beans thai can be used for seed will help the cause of food production by noti fying Ihe local or county food pro ducts committee, or the county agent in counties which have them. Such committees will notify this office of any surplus. Beans now on hand should be used for seed and not for food at this time.
