Continued strong demands for cereals and livestock products are indicated Ity all the information in its hands, says the United States Department of Agriculture in reply to a telegraphic inquiry from (I.

Christie, Director of the Indiana State Food Committee. “The State Food Committee has considered problems and feels that tanners should plan to sow a normal acreage of wheat and rye,” said the Indiana inquiry. “Committee desires a statement from you on desirable plan of pro cedure and what lines farmers should follow.” The Department of Agriculture replied that while the exact world food conditions for 1 ‘>2o cannot he forecasted with accuracy at this time, it is considered sound policy to maintain normal acreage of fall "heat and rye on lands adapted to these crops, and that the need is for well balanced, same and effi cient production of staples, the demand for which is reasonably certain, judging from existing do- mestic and foreign conditions. * “H is important,” says the De partment of Agriculture, “to re- Ntore meadows and pastures brok en up during the war emergency, and to re-establish crop rotations 1u Pwcnt depletion of soil ferti l'i.v and afford sound basis for maintaining well-balanced livo ,slu‘‘k Production.

For none of them have large supplies at their mills. Where spinners have bought ahead they have been content, on account of transpota tion and other difficulties, to leave their stocks in the large public and private warehouses. It is inevitable that the general labor unrest, apparent in all in- dust rial lines should have its ef fect oil the cotton workers. An in vestigation indicates that at pre sent the relations between the master spinner and his employes arc in better shape than in other industries. In Manchester there is a unanimous desire to get the in dustries on a satisfactory footing. The recent cotton strike which was settled by an agreement be tween the parties was settled with a view to a permanent working re 1 at ion between employer and em ploye. and resulted in a perma nent and satisfactory arrange ment more than covering the com ing cotton year. No further labor trouble in the cotton industry is looked for. There is no reason to fear any diminution of production for lack of orders. While the cot- Sold by SMITH HARDWARE CO. ton industry is at peace with it self. it is still dependent upon the coal industry. Coal production is low and therefore a coal famine, which would result in the stopage of the Manchester industries is feared. A THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK. God set the example of work, careful, productive industry, lie created the world, made man in his own image, and bade him be fruitful and multiply and replen ish the earth and subdueit; and THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 25 have dominion over the fish of the sea. and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Cod set us the example of work. Laziness has no place in his plan for human development. Your first duty is to lead busy, productive lives. This is the first homely truth, just as it has been in all ages and under all conditions, and just as it al ways will be.
