WHY WE MUST SEND WHEAT TO ENTEfJTEPOWERS No Individual Bakers There and Wheat is Basis of All Bread.

WASHINGTON, March 18. "We receive many letters at Washington as to why we want to bend so much wheat to Europe when we are told that corn, oatmeal, rice, barley and rye are Just as good," said Dr. Alonzo Taylor, who represented the United States food administration at the recent inter-allied war conference in Paris. They ask, "Why don't we keep he wheat and send them the corn and rye and barley and rice." I will answer that: We want to send wheat to Europe because you can make bread of wheat and you can't make bread out of rice and oats and corn. Wheat flour is the only known foundation for the bakery loaf which will stand handling, and no body bakes domestic bread in Europe. Bake 2,000 Loaves. "You can go to any town in France and you will find that there are no individual bakers there. There will be employed probably two or three men in one place, who will have one large hearth, who will be able to bake 2,000 loaves of bread together, with a minimum amount of coal. "The bread is delivered to the home; and this is one-half of the diet of that home. It was in peace time and It is now. In peace times there was considerable sugar, and dairy products were plentiful. Now these things are scarce and the bread largely takes the place of these foods. So the bread becomes of added Importance from every point of view. Remember that the peasantry in France live in villages, not on farms, and they subsist on the small local store and bakeshop. "Please remember that the coal in France today is $110 and $135 per ton, and they have a good coal supply this year. It is a burden to a French woman, who is working sixteen hours a day and taking care of a maimed soldier, or a tubercular person, to deliberately put an hour or an hour and a half on her day at boiling rice or making cornbread. Shall we put this burden upon her? This is the concrete situation."

BRITISH AIR RAIDS CAUSE HUN PANICS

GENEVA, Thursday, March 14. Reports reaching here from Germany say that panics have been brought about by the British aerial attacks on German towns. At Coblentz, according to a Bas;l dispatch, there were several outbreaks of fire in the southern portion of the town and a munition factory was blown up. The railway station at Fribourg again was badly damaged. Swiss travelers report in the principal Rhine cities many houses and apartments are vacant, numbers of persons moving to Central Germany and Switzerland. They say opinion is growing against continuation of German air raids.

AMSTERDAM, March 15. A Berlin dispatch says that in February Entente aviators made 23 attacks on German towns. Treves was raided three times, and Saarbrucken, Mannheim and Pirmasens once each. While no military damage was caused, the dispatch says, a considerable amount of damage was done to houses and other private property. Twelve persons were killed and 36 injured, 15 of them severely. One biplane fell into the hands of the Germans. The other attacks were directed against industrial districts in Lorraine, Luxemburg, Saar and Moselle. They are said to have caused no interruption of work, the raiding planes in a majority of cases having been prevented by the anti-aircraft guns reaching the objectives.

The radish is quite hardy and . may be grown throughout the winter in the middl section of the United States. In many lortions of the South it is possible to grow it in the open ground throughout the winter. For the home garden the seed should be sown In the open ground about the time of the last killing frosts. The seed should . be sown in drills at a convenient distance for cultivation, usually about 18 inches. To be of good quality, radishes must be grown quickly in rich soil, and be used as soon as of sufficient size. Successive plantings should be made every few day until the weather becomes warm. They will not withstand hot weather anr are suited to early spring and late autumn planting. There are autumn varieties of radishes which may be grown late in the season and stored for winter use the same as beets or turnips. A few of these will add variety to the winter supply of vegetables. U. S. Department of Agriculture. EARLY CABBAGE In Zones A, B, and C. constituting the extreme Southern portion of the United States, cabbage may be set in the autumn. This is also true of portions of Zones D. and E. When set in spring, the plants should be started la the window box or in hotbeds some six weeks before the average date of the last killing frost in the particular locality. They may be set in the gardens a3 soon as the ground is in condition. For horse cultivation the rows should be from 2 to 3 feet apart and the plants from 12 to 20 inches apart in the rows. Cabbage requires a rich warm soil for early maturing, a loam constituting a good type of soil for the purpose. It is an excellent plan to put a shovelful of compost under each plant. Early cabbage must be used as soon as it reaches maturity, or the heads are liable to burst and be lost. It is an excellent plan to grow early cabbage for summer kraut making, as it has been found that kraut may be made at the time that early cabbage matures and will keep successfully. It is much easier to produce early cabbage than the later varieties for this purpose. U. S. Department of Agriculture.
