PIES DUE
TO II WASTE
MAKSHINGTON, March 15. Hec
i rettary of Agriculture !>. F. Houston!
I says:
“Foodstuffs are high partly be
cause our annual food waste is $700.- i
I 000,000.
“The food output for the current
year was not so small as to excite
J alarm. The corn crop was near,
the five year average, oats above,
barley very near, rye 10,000,000 bush
| els more and rice 40,000,000 bushels,
as against 24,000,000 bushels, the
I five years average. Meat products I
: were 22,278,000,000 pounds, or 2,000,
I 000 pounds greater than in 1915.
A marked decrease came in wheat
: and Irish potatoes; in the case of
| wheat 640,000,000 bushels, and 1,026,
i 000,000 bushels in 1915. The unusu
1 i
ally large carry over from the 1915
from was 164,000,000 bushels. .Nor
mally tlie exports are 105,000,000
bushels, but in 1914-15 they were
332,000,000 bushels, dropping in 1915
16 to 243,000,000 bushels. Looking
only at the crop of 640,000,000 bush
els and having in mind the possibili
ties of export as suggested by the
figure of 332,000,000 for 1914-15, the
public apprehending that there
would be a lack of bread became
unduly excited. The available sup
ply, 804,000,000 bushels — part un
suitable for milling purposes—should
have been considered as well as the
relatively small exports which up to
January 1, were only 97,000,000 bush
els, and they have tended to de
crease partly on account of the dis
turbed shipping conditions since the
first of January. Our normal do
mestic needs of wheat for human food
for seeding purposes, and for a re- ;
serve to carry over into the next year
require 040,000,000 bushels. There re
mains an available exportable surplus
of 101,000,000 bushels. At the rate of
export since July 1, with the tendency
to decline recently, we should have
' enough wheat in the country very
i nearly to supply our normal need.
,-I am not a prophet, but I do
i know that farmers have had a defi
! nite purpose to increase their acre
age. Winter wheat acreage was 40,
900.000, or nearly 900,000 more than
| harvested last summer. In 1915 spring
wheat acreage was 19,445,000 and the
five-year acreage 18,800,000. It would
be singular if this did not increase.
Adding that average to the winter
wheat acreage, we have approximately
59.000. 000 acres, or practically the
same as the record acreage of 1915.
The yield, of course, depends on weath
er conditions. The average of the six
lowest yields per acre since 1894 was
12.5 bushels. This would give us 737,
000,000 bushels of wheat. The aver
age yield for five years down to the
record crop year of 1915 was 14.9
| bushels. This would give up 879,000,
000 bushels of wheat. The average
for five years including the record
crop year was 15.5 bushels. This would
give us 914,000,000 bushels. A yield
equal to that of 1914 of 16.6 bushels
would give us 979,000,000 bushels,
while a yield equal to that of the rec
ord crop year would give us 1,000,000,
j 000 bushels.
A word should be said about the
tendency of the meat supply to
increase. The domestic production
of 1916 was 3,000,000,000 pounds
greater than in 1914, and the ten
dency is still upward. Figures re
cently submitted show that the
number of cattle on January 1, 1917,
was 1,037,000 greater than on Janu
ary 1, 1916, and that the milk
cows had increased in the same period
660,000.
“There is no occasion for hys
teria. Intelligent planning and con
structive action, in conjunction with
the operation of normal forces, and
what we need and these only can bring
about a satisfactory result.”

IT’S A REAL PLEASURE
to view the new wall decorations on
view here exclusively. They are so
unconventional, so out of the common
and so unusually artistically attrac
tive. If you plan to repaper you
should by all means see these new
papers. To decide without doing so
is apt to result in regret later.
