The one great need today is food pro-

duction. This point has been so elabora- ted, so many proofs have been submitted. that it is now patent to everybody who ivants to think, that cvery_eti`ort must _be put forth by everybody to save onr_ armies and our allies from actual starvation and defeat and ourselves from _all the conse- quences that such a calamity would in- volve.

In this agricultural province of ours we

have so far made no extra efforts of a_n_v special importance. Our farmers are, with few exceptions, producing to the limit of t_heir strength and of their farms. l"roni the great majority of our best farmers lit- tle, if any more can be expected than what lliey have done in .the past few years, so that if we are to produce more than \ve are now doing it can onl_v be by adding to producing areas and by bringing in help. that is not now engaged in farming. 3

_ Through the Military Service Act our;

man power has been combed down to \vhat‘ is perhaps the limit ol iiecessar_v farm help. The Act made generous allowance for the exemption of every man ot military age who was emplved in the production ot food. While this applied mainly to farm- ers' sons and to employees on farins it has not simplilieil the laboui~ problem. l"arni labour will in all probabilit_v be moi'e difli- cult to procure during the coming season than. before-unless extraoriliiiai'y meas-l nres are adopted. The towns and villages' must now do their part. and if they could only be made to realize the situation as iti is they would do their part. l

There are two ways in which dwellers-

iii the towns and cities can help: one by hi- ring out on farms and working under thc, direction of some one who' knows what work to give them, or by taking tip farm- ing themselves. The former way is open to lab`oin'ers anil to those whose present occupation can be temporarily dispensed with. Under the Militarv Service Act such

doubt if 'such <'onsei'iption will be practi- cable as few l`arniers would. care to employ men who took to farining agaiiist their will

We feel sure, liowcver, that an appeal will be made to the honour anil the patriotism of all and we trust that when it is theri- will be a-generous response.

The second way, going directly into fai'-

mnig is probably open only to those who have the means to equip themselves with the necessary farm implements, stock. seed, fertilizer, etc. We have many such and if they undertake it they will find it profitable as .well as patriotic.

' In a time like the pi°esent with prices as

they are, and as they are likely to be for se- veral years, farming even by the amateur and the inexperienced would prove proli- table. Thcre is also the back yard and va- cant lot farming. Many- of our citizens in Charlottetown made this a profitable ven- ture last year and are preparing to take it up more extensively this year. Others made mistakes and are determined to pro- lit by them this year. This kind of farm- ing can be carried ou more extensively than last year by renting vacant lots and vacant farms within easy reach of the City or the towns and villages throughout the province.

With actual want staring the world in

the face there should be no hesitation on the part of any one who can help grow vc- getables or feed of any kind to seize the

hrst opportunity of going so.

(Hflt SOLD] ERS

There are now i the City u goodly

number of young siihiers of the new re- inforcementsjust recruited. They are dril- ling. daily and we are informed by the olii- cers in charge that they are doing -excel- lent work and it is hoped that within the next few days our streets will again be enlivened by the tramp and the marching song' of our new army. i _The different units that have so far made

a short stay in the City on their way to more active scenes have received many kind attentions from our citizens and we feel sure that the short sojourn among us of-‘these young m_en will be made equally pleasant. The ma_}ority of the present unit are strangers in the City and the City owes it to itself and to them to make it as pleas- ant for them as possible. The trasnfer from the comforts of home and of friends to barrack life and to association with stran-

gers is not always an agreeable one but its'

inconveniences, and __e_ve,'n its comparative

, sent back to the United States b_v Am- " l ei'ican army ofiicers in France as being , absolutely worthless for the purpose

for which they were intended. Every <

i gas mask now being used by oui' tropos l on the Western front has been bor- . rowed from either the British or

1"rench War Department. It _is under- stood that the masks which have been sent back are being used in various cantonments in this couiitr_v for

, training purposes. The masks were l ordered by the War Department with

the full knowledge of the latest dc- velopments in German, French, and _British masks, samples of which were

_ in the hands of the department when , the order was accepted and the iinish-

; ed product .passed as satisfactory.”

This looks-as if some of our American

cousins were grafting. With the British and French masks, which have reached al- most the perfect stage, to copy from there .appears to be no reason why this terrible lwaste should have been permitted. ‘

The fuel situation which has thrown'

the country into a panic and is causing los- ses tliat aggregate millions is also chargeil to i`ncompetence. The New York Times in

follows:

_‘_‘Presidcnt Wilson is by no means

uniformly happy in his choice of men for places of power and responsibilit_\. The public has confidence in him, it admires him. In the great work of state craft during the war it feels that-

- he has had no equal. But they feel

that somehow he is too much disin- clnied to have big inenabout him, that either through errors of judgment or some strange predilection he has too often called to his aid men not equal to their tasks, men not of .sufiicient amplitude to be the advisers and co- a_d_]utors of the head of the nation in time of war. The peril of reliance up- on mediocrity is evident; its deplor-

| able consequences have become | ' known to the people and they are dis- i turbed in mind about it.”
