FOOD AND MORE FOOD'
The .,.im ,• - increesed i

We are told that the food, supply'of the
World is veryl"ow. The producers of
farm foods are'becoming less, and' the
non -producing consumers are increasing
Wide elections of country which were
formerly productive are being trampled
by armies, and large quantities of food_
materials are now being lost in transit,
The°fcod situation iS becoming increas-
ingly. serious. This is 'emphasized by
the.. following quotations from the public
:press of recent dates,: '
Bonar Law, Chancellor of the Excheq='
uer, stated in the i3ouse`of Commons on
Friday, March 16th,—that ."The British
.Government regards the production of
food: of greater, importance at the, Present
time than the sending; of• additional men
intothe arhiy.
.Lord.Devonport, Food Controller, :for'
Great Britain, stated in. the House Of
Lords on Thursday,: March 22nd, that
-"It- ni ht be necessary to resort to coin -
:plan -1.y rationing 'which 'wouliibea_
`Mesal calamity."• •
The Duke of . Devonshire, Governor'
General of Canada, stated in :Brandon oh
March 6tli, that "The supply of food was
net only" important,' but .perhaps the
most inipor ant problem which.the Em s
pire had to solve,"; • . •
.Mr: R:: 13 Bennett, M.p., Bead of the
National -Service Board, of Canada, re-
cently'declar'ed that "The crisis is not a
military one but one of food supply.":
Hon. Martin'Bu'rrell, Dominion Min-
ister Of Agriculture,., 'stated in :January
last that "Avital.factor will be"an ample
and unfailing flow of food to •England.
and to France.":
Mr. N. W. Rowell, Lead'ee of the Op..
position in the Ontario Legislature, when
speaking to the Legislative Assembly on,
March 9th, "Urged that steps should be
taken to insure that the lands of the
Province were made .to paoduce every
ounce of ;food possible." -
More. than • one-half of . the cropping
lands of Ontario is now in grass and'the
grass lands of the Province have been in
'creasing at the'rate'of' fully, one hundred
thousand acres annually during the last
four years. During this time there has
bien'a decrease in Ontario and in ,the
whole of Canada of live stock, including
eiry.cattlerbeefeattlefehee Indo
In the last fout years there has been an,
actual decrease in the acreage :in Ontario-
of twenty=three per cent. in beans, fifty-
seven per cent. in peas, seven per: cent
jin winter wheat, ten per cent. in turnips
and twelve per;' cent. in :potatoes. In.
1916 eighty-three per cent, of the beans,
eighty-four pet cent. of the peas, eighty-
two per cent. of the fall wheat and thirty
per cent: of the potatoes of Canada -were
produced -Ontario:
It is estimated that an average acre of
beans produces as much real food Mater-
ial as as" usually' obtained froze . 'five. 'to
fifteen acres of pasture land in the pro-
duction of either meat Cr milk. '
With' slight exeeptione, the `'iii ist eco-
inoicalr sources of food materials in. On-
tario in the past -winter were obtained
from the following groups; 1st, farm
crops—oats, wheat, corn, peaca,:"beats,
potatoes; • 2nd, dairy products—milk,
hitter, cheese; -3rd, meat—beef, mutton;
pork; 4th, fish.—salmon, .cod; and 8th,
eggs. ' According to recent determine.
tion and prevaiting.prices as much val.
nable food Materiell for human Consump-
tion could be obtained from the purchase
of beans withctweuty cents as from the
purchase of eheese'with forty-three cents),
of beef steak : with seventynine cents.
