Our Country -"-. Right or Wrong

\MAY HAVE TO TIGHTEN OUR BELTS
What Herbert Hoover meant recently when
he said that the battle of food is virtually
World War II all over again-in reverse-was
brought home with increasing significance
last week, as the nation heard warnings about
egg and milk shortages and size of a loaf of
bread was ordered cut ten per cent.
Combined with the continued scarcity of
butter, the privation in the offing is likely to
be a personal reminder to everyone of just
how total war and its repercussions .can be.
It will also be a not too kindly memento of
what iar-reaching effects a few men's ambi-
tions can have on everyone.
There is no question today of a nation be-
ing successfully an "island unto itself." As
with the recent war, the repercussions of
peacetime consequences are universal, and
current warnings pose an ever growing threat


Famine Aid Closes 90

Per Cent of Flour Mills

U:p to Wednesday of this week
90 per cent of flour mills in the
United- States had !been closed, ac-
cording to th.e Millers National
Federation, due to diversion of
whiea5t to relief purposes.
The agriculture department an-
nounces that it is prepared to lend
wheat to mills "to assure flour
'supplies in areas where there is a
definite bread, shortage." A mi'll
qualifying for such a loan of wheat
can get only enough to bring its
supply up to one-half of its June
allotment for domestic salt.
Under department orders de-.
signed to make more grain avail-
alble for famine areas abroad. do-
mestic mills are allowed in June


to everyone's economy. In some sections the
warnings carry a real note of danger, for the
steady liquidation of cattle and poultry stocks
to meet the necessary diversion of grain to
Europe has reached proportions where a ret-
rogression is feared over a period of years.
Egg and milk shortages have been defi-
nitely forecast for the fall, and are likely to
carry over because of the deficit in producing
stock. This situation in itself is enough to
emphasize a national need for the closest sort
of economy and conservation, but it is likely,
too, to be one of the greatest and most far-
reaching lessons of the war.
If, in fact, scarcity reached the point feared,
the lesson will be brought home with almost
every meal. Butter, eggs, milk, sugar, bread
and, possibly, all .grains-if these staples of
life.are missing for many more months after
the cessation of war, we should have an un-
forgettable idea finally, of the cost to every-
one.


A newspaper filler states that "There are
25,000 different kinds of jobs in this country
at which one can earn a living." The trouble,
however, is that nearly all of these jobs in-
volve work in some form or other.-Minnu-
apolis Star-Journal.


Earl Browder has always asserted that the
American Communist party "had no connec-
tion with Moscow," yet that's where he is
now-and the Muscovites welcomed him with
open arms.


The government cut our bread 20 per cent,
and it began to look as though the rail strike
would make it an even 100 per cent by closing
the bakeries for lack of flour.


to distribute only 75 per cent as
much flour as the monthly aver-
age of,1945.

Petunias Are Popular For

Abundant Yield of Bloom
Petunias and zinnias are the
most popular flower in America to-
day. They have come to the front e
in the last twenty years, displacing '
the former leaders, which were t
nasturtiums and sweet peas.
Each of the popular leaders has 3
outstanding merits, that of the pe-
tunia being profuseness and long b
season of bloom. Though so slow to
begin that seed is usually sowne
early under protection, the petunia
never stops blooming until frost
kills the plant.
Unlike other annuals, petunias do i
not seem to mind failure to pick i
off faded flowers. Where many
annuals stop blooming, once they
have begun to mature seed, the pe- Petunia All-Double Colossal Shades

Double petunias never bear seed; '" i,
pollen from them must be carried
to single flowers and seed from the '

and single plants. But all-double -

still is secret, have now been pro-
duced, and one of them, All-double

The secret of breeding all-double
