THE FOODPROBLEM
Andrew ifl. Soule, President Georgia

If .we are to solve the present food
problem satisfactorily, we must first
determine what it will be necessary
to produce in the average garden and
farm in order to provide the foods
needed by, let us say, a family of
five. A day’s ration must have a
definite amount of fuel, a suitable pro
portion of protein, ash well repre

well selected with regard for the
physical condition, tastes, habits and

The woman’s diet should be l$ke the
man’s with the quantity one-third less,
and for the three children there
should be in every day’s diet in vary
ing proportions according to age and
activity: milk, cereal, eggs, fruit,
green vegetables, meat or meat sub
stitute, bread, butter. The carbohy
drates can be brought up to suit con
ditions.
The following supplies of food will
farmet has been utilizing in the
past,and that is Fertilizer. But thi3
too is beset with difficulties.
Fertilizer can increase production
without increasing labor except at
harvest time. The warring nations
appreciate this fact, and are giving
all the encouragement they can to the
use of fertilizers.
The railroads can't do the busi
ness expected of them unless every
freight car is loaded to full ca
pacity. To load them to full capacity
the fertilizer dealer must have enough
orders in to make up a full car load
before he can reasonably hope to get
a shipment. Tho earlier the carload
orders are placed the better chance,
of course, of getting a shipment. Be
cause of the shortage of equipment,
the railroads should have as much
time as possible to plan for moving the
fertilizer. Early orders will give them
a knowledge of the number of cars
that will bo needed.
Government Authorities Backing It
The National Council of Defense has
sent out a bulletin on this very subject,
urging farmers to order their fall fer
tilizers early so full carload shipments
might be made and the largest amount
of human food produced.
The United Stales Department ofl
Agriculture through the States Re
lations Service and Bureau of Soils;
and agricultural colleges and coun
ty agents, are advising the same.
The railroads ore very urgent about
the matter. The' fertilizer manufac
turers are offering to help the dealer*
and farmers as much as possible to
overcome the transportation difficul
ties.
Half Cars Can Bo 8aved
Railway authorities have statistics
to show that half of the cars ordinari
ly used for hauling fertilizers could
do the business, if only they are load
ed to their maximum capacity.
Where a full car load can not bo
made up for one destination, then it
is to be filled with orders for neigh
boring stations along a railroad.
More Wheat and Oats From the South
Farm 8ervlce Bureau, Atlanta, Ga.
The South will be expected to take

five for one year with rations based production. Discouragement from the

tor such as peanuts, potatoes produ ctlon no small one. but
and soy beans. ' . . , . ..
12 bushels corn meal (some of this the country neeijs more of these crops
to be used as breakfast cereal if it is to take care of its allies. The
and wheat substitute).
728 gallons milk (this to take care
of butter).
226 pounds bacon.
150 pounds lard.
1000 pounds fresh meat (pork, beef,
chlckenB, fish).
250 dozen eggs.
10 bushels fresh fruit
100 quarts canned fruit (5 or 6
bushels when fresh).
25 gallons syrup.
40 bushels sweet potatoes. j"
40 bushels Irish potatoes.
One-half acre in vegetables in
successive plantings. (This will
provide an abundance of fresh
vegetables and 500 quarts of
canned vegetables for winter
use.)
When wheat for flour-ts-not to he
had some satisfactory substitute must
be used, such as potatoes, soy beans,
peanuts or corn meal, will provide,
Corn meal can also be combined with
25 per cent of the several food stuffs
mentioned above in an emergency,
thereby providing a wholesome, nutri
tious and satisfactory substitute for
wheat or light bread. Light bread,
which is very good and nutritious can
be made by using with the wheat
flour 26 per cent corn meal, Irish or
sweet potatoes, crushed roasted pea
nuts or soy beans. Corn may be used
also for making grits and lye hominy,
thereby giving desirable variety to
the diet
prices which they are bringing, of
course, do not discourage production.
Even if the acreage cannot be in
creased the prices which the Bmall
grains are bringing Justify the very
best seed bed preparation and the
maximum use of-fertilizer.
Growing cereals, of course, do not
require as much labor as growing corn
and cotton, it is true, but com and
cotton will take their turn in every
well planned farm.
The scant oat crop should be hus
banded for seed this year. No oats
are as good for planting in the South
as those grown in the South, especially
if they are grown in the region where
they are to be planted. The same is
true of wheat unless in a given sec
tion the best variety for that section
has not yet been used.
Good seed should be ordered early.
Unless fertilizers are ordered early,
so that dealers can ship only in full
carload lots it is quite probable that
fanners will be disappointed when
seeding time comes. The railroads
will probably have more than they can
do even with full carload shipments.
It Is a national necessity to see- that
no freight car space Is wasted.
