Food Meeting h Held Thursday

FOOD PRODUCTION

sentatives of a latge number of or- • slu ‘ l! j ganizationt of the county, fo: med | vers,U ,),>forP
the audience in the assembly room of the court house Thursday morning to hear talks on defense food production in Putnam county. Trie organizations represented were particularly all in the county whose work touches on farm production, but also represented were clubs and ther groups Whose program of activities has a bearing on the matter of production of food. The chairman of the meeting was Ora A. Day, chaiiman of the Putnam county AAA. Clark Baker, listriot field man for the AAA, and David L. Grimes, county farm agent, were, the speakers, The meeting was a follow-up for the district meeting for a ilmilar purpose, held at Crawfordsville, recently. Mr Baker dlacusaed the necessity of American farm producers utilizing the surpluses of food which they have on hands, especially coin and wheat, for the hungry of thp world, the reference being especially to the needs of (the British. He said food dumps will he established in England which will require all of he manufactured products of the farms of America which can be sent
to them.
Eggs and pork products wece stressed by Mr. Baker as being needed, the eggs being shipped in dry foam and the pork products in the cured form. Mr. Grimes talked on what we can do about the situation. He injected into his talk a very practical word of advice to Putnam county fanners to not expand their farm improv - ments because of the piesent wave of extra demand, mentioning particularly the building of new structures In the poultry yards and the incurring of debts to make such improvements, which, he said, would be unwise because the present wave of demand is bound to be only temporary in chai aeter and when 'the war subsides farmers who have unduly expanded will be left Inflated as regards expenditures but deflated as regards income. He said full utllizaUon of present facilities should take care of the increased demand.
