FOOD PROBLEM Will be Discussed at Meeting to be Held Here During the Next Week. WIRE FROM GOVERNOR Received by County Agent Overton Asking for His Co-operation. M H. Overton, county agent, this morning received a telegram from Governor James P. Goodrich, urging him to assist in the organization of the agricultural leaders and workers of Adams county, to meet the demand for food, forced by the war condition aboard and the exhausted supply at home, urging that a meeting be held at the court house in this city Saturday afternoon at 1:30, with proper speakers and program. Mr. Overton, after consulting with a number of people, decided the time for arrangements too short and de-* cided to postpone the meeting until Some day next week, exact time to be given later. He is in accord with the plan and will do all he can to encourage the furthering of the idea to increase the acreage of crops and to secure help for the farmers as was suggested in the meeting held at Indianapolis yesterday, but decided that it would be impossible to secure a representative meeting of the tanners with so short a notice. He will > plan the meeting and announce it soon. The Indianapolis meeting was an enthusiastic one and every effort to secure a bigger food production this year will be made in Indiana and Adams county will do her part. E. X. Ehinger also received a wire from the bankers' organization, urging cooperation. The first meeting of thy year for the Presbyterian Woman’s Home and Foreign Missionary society was with Mrs. S. D. Beavers yesterday when annual reports were read, showing a very good condition. Mrs. L. A. Graham will have the May meeting.
