SMITH, PRopr. a y Telephone 177 -:- -:- Plattsmouth, Neb. One of the leading statisticians re cently stated that it now takes 2o0 people to do the same work that was performed by 100 employees in 1914 :o: If those potatoes don't weigh any more than the ones that have been retailing around here, no one will be injured In the drop. So let 'em come down. :o: Farm life is themost independent in the world, as city dwellers are fond of saying. Now is the time for them to become independent. Every farm is calling them. :o: "Prices will be cut 20 per cent, except those articles regulated by manufacturers", we read. Prices regulated by manufacturers is uncon stitutional, you understand, but true. :o: Hungary may make herself feel prosperous with her new silk curren cy, but Hungary has never been so well oil since the days when she ground gypsy dance music by the ream. v A curious, perhaps unique, fea ture of the great money markets on the stock exchange is absolute lack of favoritism. "One" broker has pre cisely the same standing, if he fol lows the rules of the game, as any other. :o: THE COMING FOOD CRISIS The evidence now seems over whelming that considerably less food will be produced in North America this year than last year. The south temperate zone has jirst completed a crop season and its two great surplu--food growing countries, Argentina and Australia, report disappointing harvests. In the United States and Canada, the only agricultural coun tries remaining in the world upon which the human race depends for i largo exportable snrplus, the spring conditions are unfavorable. The planting season is very late; the railroad tie ups and freight conges tion have seriously delayed the ship ments cf fertilizers to t lie farms of the country; farm labor in unpre cedentedly scarce and costly and the tendency is widespread for the smal ler farmers to cultivate only such an acreage of land as they can care for without hired help. No contribi: tion to the world's exportable food supply can be expected this year, or perhaps next year, from central and eastern Kurope. Krmania and Hun gary before the great war could be depended upon for w heat, as the mid dle and western European countries ooifld be depended upon for beet su gar, but Rumania and Hungary must be dismissed for the present from all calculations. Russia's great wheat belt. Is in the Ukraine, but the now Polish war of conquest as far south as Odessa is not the right sort of spring planting. The come back of Russia as a food exporting country on a large scale still seems rather remote, regardless of bolshevism, if a new cycle of wars must be fought for the political control of the rich western zone of the old empire stretching from the Baltic to the Black sea. The economic chaos and dismal social misery of' eastern Europe is now so extreme that one might see K B U B .'in thiu condition the clear warning of the downfall of civilization. It is many centuries since the situation of a vast population was more criti j cal. Those w retched human hordes I now more than half starved, must be kept alive in tne next iew years. If they are to survive, by means of the surplus food grown elsewhere which is where America conies in. It is futile, perhaps, In these days. to talk about attaining a higher civili zation; the present task is to hold on to what civilization the world al- nmilv lms The lirst essential of civilization is food. Newspaper headlines suggest that here in the United States bread may before long go up to 2 5 cents a loaf This fear is not based on the sliort wintpr wheat froD. for the United States could grow enough wheat in the worst season imaginable to fee' its own people at a price by no means excessive, provided that little wheat or wheat flour were exported. The trouble now anticipated arises, first, from the European demand for American Hour; second, from the end oa June 1 of the regulation of wheat prices by the United States government. The question immediately arise whether government control of the market should not be continued, if puch consequences of its expiration are threatened. After the armistice, the cry arose that the government should get out of business immedi ately, and the government did get out of business as fa&t as it could. But there were some disastrous re sults, as in the case of sugar. Ev erybody now wishes that sugar had been kept under direct' government control. The railroads have gone back, also, but railroad transporta tion suffers. It may turn out that monumental mistake will be made in letting government control of the grain market prematurely expire.
