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.

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 be required- to provide a family of eare 0 f it a B hare of wheat and oat five for one year with rations based production.

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.
