British Admiralty, Tells Commons YEAR AGO NET LOSS WAS 550,000 TONS MONTHLY t Oil June 30 World Was as Well Off as on January 1, 1918. -4m London.-?Sir Eric Geddes, First Lord of the British Admiralty, gave the House of Commons to-day a review of the naval situation, and *prac tically defended the policy of starting national ship-building yards. The First Lord compared the ten page situation to-day with thai of a year ago. Tiled the net loss, he said, was 550,000 gross tons monthly, i boats were not destroyed as fast as built, while merchant shipyards wetshort of men and material. Koui hundred thousand tons net loss monthly was the British deficit; Every yard that could take naval work had been put on naval building. Gradually during the past year, f'ir Eric continued, thexposition hiui changed. Instead of losing tonnag' the world's net result in the last quarter had been a gain roughly o! 100,000 tons a month. The Allied and neutral world wjik wi>11 off on June 30 as on Jan. 1, 1918. This result, he declared, had been obtained by reduced sinkings and increased buildings. The deduced sinkings had been arrived at, said the First Lord of the Admiralty, by a greater productive effort devoted to warships and antisubmarine small craft. Nothing of tonnage was included in this result. "The problem of a year ago wajonsidered by many almost inconceivable and insoluble," Sir Eric tontinucd. "Mercantile carrying power was being sunk at any rate which soon would have meant an inabilit to continue the war, and there wa no tried recognized means of combating the campaign. It was necessary to provide a building programme of anti-submarine craft, mines, other appliances and merchant ships on a greatly reduced scale; "The total increase in labor las'.

Owing to events on the western front and the great demands for technical men for the air force ami the army, it was impossible to obtain the proper quota of skill 'I men by their withdrawal from the army. Unskilled men were offered freely, but they could not be absorbed because of the lack of skilled men." o Human nature has not turned square round as yet.

JB T*** WORRY HJUU TO INSURE ADEQUATE WHEATPRDINICTION Indication that early steps are b<.ing taken by the United States Department of Agriculture to in*'1 sure an adequate production of wheat in this country next year is shown in the following letter from Assistant Secretary R. A. Pearson to Prof. G. 1. Christie, director Indiana Committee on Food Production and Conservation of the State ( Council of Defense which was read at a meeting of this committee held at Indianapolis May 24. Mr. Pearson's letter is as follows: Replying to your inquiry of the Oth instant regarding the plans of this department with respect to tlv* insuring of an adequate producton of wheat in this country next year. 1919, I would say that the subject is already under consideration by the department. As you, of course,. appreciate several important deter-1 mining factors are still in doubt.; This is true with respect both to th approximate wheat needs of th" world next year, which are more or less affected by the magnitude o4' j this year's crop, and the conditions' in various portions of this country,! which necessarily determine to a I considerable extent the acreage thai i it may be practicable to put in. Taking into account such information | as we now have, it would appear that it would be highly desirable for this country to maintain approximately the acreage of winter wheal sowed last fall. This would seem especially true in the corn-belt States, where wheat is a relatively sure crop and constitutes an important feature of the approved crop rotations, bearing especially in mind the important relation that the wheat crop of this region bears to the seeding down of the land with clover and timothy. Importance of Disease-Free Seed. ' "One of the important things to ^ok out for early in the season is the location of varietally pure, disease-free seed of thoroughly tested and approved varities. This nee Is thp of tho furmore fKom. I selves as well as by the extension forces while the crop is growing and available for field inspection. In view of the advance made last year in this direction, it should be possible to secure a much higher average quality of seed wheat in most sections than has been used in fori ler years. "The importance of early plowing v here summer fallowing is practiced and where wheat is to follow wheat or oats should also be emphasized, and especially the thorough tillage of corn that is to be followed by wheat. In view of the earlier spring, it would- se m reaARE DELICATE OR FRAIL under-size or under-weight remember?Scott9s Emulsion is nature's grandest growingfood; it strengthens their bones, makes healthy blood and promotes sturdy growth.
