Hotel men are now combining in public statements of their cooperation with the food administration, and find that this form of announcement aids in solving problems raised by misunderstanding on the part of the public.

The planting of an increased acreage to spring wheat and the production of an increased supply of other food products and of live stock, especially hogs, is recommended in its supplementary food-producaion program issued by the United States department of agriculture. This program re-emphasizes and amplifies the food-production program for 1918 issued by the department in Augusi, 1917. and other suggestions made in the fall and the first of this year regarding increased pork production and increased production of foodstuffs in the south.
