INDIANAPOLIS. Jan. 17. Sorghum molasses, maple sugar, corn sirup and honey are to rank high in Indiana

during the war as substitutes for sugar, and as factors in the effective solution of the problem forced on the people by a sugar shortage and by extraordinary war demands on the ordinary sugar supplyq. Food Director .G. I. Christie at this time is collecting information to be used in stimulating and enlarging the sorghum industry in Indiana in 1913. Sorghum mills are being listed through county agents and demonstration agents. It is the Food Director's purpose first to find where sorghum mills are situated and then to induce the concerns to cooperate in enlarging thir output Having data as to the location and demand of markets for sugar cane, Mr. Christie plans to get In touch with farmers with a view to inducing them to raise sugar cane. Plans approved by the Indiana State Council of Defense, are under way, directed by Mr. Christie, to bring i

about the tapping of thousands of sugar trees in Indiana which never before have been drawn on for sugar water. Reports from northern Indi

ana, notably from Carroll county, indicate that sugar camps are to be opened on a large scale, and that maple sugar production the coming spring Is to reach a volume never before approached. Bartholomew county, to ths south, reports that several thousand of sugar maple trees are to give forth their sweet sap this year in response to the demand of Hoover and the sugar emergency. Owners of sugar trees or groves in many parts of the state are asking Prof. ChrlsMe for information and instructions with the idea of backing up the men of the training camps with shots from the sugar camps. The honey bee is to be enlisted for overtime war work, and the apiaries of the. state are expected to toil in three shifts twenty-four hours a day to help supply sweets to replace sugar. The honey industry is expected to reach an , importance never j before known."' w ' ' ' ' ' i

defense and the United Sta.tes Boys Working Reserve, which operates as a part of the defense council. High school boys are being organized to help put in the crops which later are to be canned. It is the plan for the schools to release the boys for short periods at planting time and in the harvest period in the fall. Harry McCartney, of Greenwood, Ind., president of the Indiana Canners' association, writing to Gov. James P. Goodrich, made an appeal for help in the solution of the labor problem confronting the growers of corn, peas and tomatoes. Mr. McCartney shows that the Government last year bought for the army and navy 12 per cent of the peas and corn canned, and IS per cent of the canned tomatoes, and he declares that the prospect for 1918 is that the government will demand two-and-one-balf times as much canned goods as in 1017, while the allies will want all the surplus that can be supplied. It is said the canners have made satisfactory price arrangements

with growers, but that growers are afraid to contract as liberally as tbey should because they are not sure they can get labor when they need it. Canning factory crops, especially tomatoes, require more labor per acre than

ordinary crops, and must be harvested ;

rapidly when ready. Mr. McCartney suggested tnat he believed the Boys' Working Reserve could save the situation, and he asked for an authoritative assurance from the governor and from the school authorities that high school boys will be available in the emergency of 1918. Gov. James P. Goodrich has written to Dr. Horace Ellis, state superintendent of public instruction, suggesting that the department of education and the educational section of the state

council of defense get in touch with the Boys' Working Reserve, the canners and the growers and work out some plan under which boy power from the high schools can be made available for war duty in the fields where canning crops are to be raised.

84,000,000 Tons Of Snow In Vigo County TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Jan. 17 In a statement printed in a local newspaper today, Walter Woodrow, teacher of science at the Indiana State Nor".

mal school, asserts there ere more than 84,000,000 tons of snow over Vigo county. : He came to this figure by finding that a square foot of snow in front of bis borne weighed fifteen pounds. If arranged in a column, one square foot in cross section. It would reach

out into space for 2,500,000 miles. It would be sufficient, he says, to build a pavement ten feet wide and a foot thick as far as the moon. If melted and conserved, this snowfall would supply Terre Haute with water at the rate of 5,000,000 gallons a day for eleven and one-half years. It would

take one man 23,000 years to remove the entire amount of snow from Vigo county, he said. ' v
