There tras been a noticeable weak- ening of official denials that a short- age of 'food;existed in Germany. It was said that there was food enough, but that distribution was faulty, Now the statement is made that prices are being raised in order to enforce'econ- omy, a ,crilel and, incredible .interpre- tation of events., But beyond official utterances, in the. journals which come to =this country some indication of the 'true crisis .i'$ • seen.

Further it is reported that "prices are .much higher iii Hungary than in Germany," and the • Leipzig Volcs- zeitung ..protests. the v'eality of Eng- land's blockade and asserts. that the Government does .not protect civil. ians.from 'speculators. Two things may be remarked in this connection,., One is that the Gov- ernment, ob.iouely working for a decisive victory, is giging'every atom of food energy to the soldiers of its own and allied armies, and.' that such a situation, even on a small scale, roust work- hardship for civilians. The, second is that Germany's dependents in active service are so many, are ducscattered aver. so wide and so unpro- the bio an arshe even withoutesseThe Fashions the blockade she would be pkgssed beyond endurance to maintain a war • of attrition against her enemies.

We must not wonder that Germany beats so persistently, even if so inef- fectually, against the walls of her cage. We must not be hurt that Germany is bitter against us. She is starving.

Even the most skeptical among us must be thrilled and interested by the attractive novelties Fashion is now placing on her spring counters, and in her spring shops. For in- stance there are the quaint bonnets which are being displayed at the mo- ment in our millinery departments, and as a logical sequence of the modish ose we us the ich oss 115 our the memory of those battered, decimat indomitable legions which saved from utter extinction at the be Hing. THE EXTRAORDINARY CROPS Should Be No Let-up in Caned Faris Output. gathered and flaring skirts. Fluttering• about one of these bon- nets, a fascinating creation of garnet braid and white -gardenias, in one of our smart shops the Other afternoon, was a quaintly smart little person, dressed all in gray. She wore one of the new faille suits, made with a rather close fitting coat, flaring wide - ed, ly at the lower edge, combined with its the most modern of old-fashioned gilt- skirts. It was •t .veritable "pull- back," having all of the.: fulness drawn to the back and held by a tape • fastened at the side seams -fitting as smoothly and plainly across the a's front as the narrowest of skirts did some seasons hack. From belt to 0 _ hens in back, the skirt was stiffened with haircloth, causing the fulness to all in several outstanding folds. At the involuntary upward and down- ward glance site induced, one expect- ed to see -a pair of extremely high French heels on silver -buckled slip: cis, or a high -crowned, flower -trim - ed chapeau. As the small person continued on el' way from counter to counter, the kirt swung in true,. hoop -skirt The Government estimate of 480 000,000 as the value of Canadian fi crops for 1915 coincides with indep dent business estimates. The total so much in excess of, the best previo output by Canadian farmer's Ili upon. the first statement it might re sonably be regarded as exaggerat It is indeed remarkable that in o year the value of the field cr could be increased from about $55 000,000 to 3800,000,000, an increase about 45 per cent., notwithstanding rt reat decline in prices. The extraor- inary yields per acre for grain in he West contributed the chief part 1 the great surplus, but another im- ortant factor was the increase in creage as 0. result of the war and of the special campaign on production onducted last Winter. The result of sat campaign may be summed up n the figures, rvluch show that the dditional wheat acreage was about wo mil'• - 1 and the average yield bout 28 , 1011015 to the • stere. The ampaign therefore led directly or directly, to an increased output of bout 50,000,000 bushels. If it was important for Canada st year to have large increases in -ops, it is equally so this year. The ecovery in business has tended to street public attention from the tops question. For the payment of amide's large war commitments we est have steady progress in output, Ile weather is, of course, beyond ntrol, and it has a powerful say in hat the harvest shall be, but even if e extraordinary yields of last year •e not again attained Tor several ars the ar04 planted should go on pendieg.
