Navy, Washington. D, C., urges continuing •support of thb Victory Scrap Bank Drive, in order to keep the steel mills supplied with scrap in great quantities. Admiral Robinson said: ^‘Our sea power is pushing back the enemy in many thtaters of operation. We have our total acreage of food-crops is just I fighting ships and airplanes covering the seven seas. - This is made/>ossible because we now have a seven ocean .Vavy, the most powerful Navy in world history." Every time we launch a new fight ing ship, acquire a new gun, accept another airplane, it is a step closer to victory. Naval bombardments against the porta of Sicily and Italy used up tons of steel every minute. {All this steel must be replaced by the home front. ^ The steel mills can and are furnish ing oyr military ^eeds. but'to continue doing so they must have.iron and steel about the same as it was during the last war! • , — All-wo have wHh which to make up the vast disparity between food needs and food acres is higher yields through better varieties and improved prac tices of production and conservation. Hut that can't fill the great gap. The -Utmost limit of ovary fam^s-eapoeity^ to produce food is needed. Farms have measured up well fo far. With'handicaps on every hand, they have done it principally with ‘‘spirit; skill and hard work/' as ^pi-_ rector Watkins put It. But, as he points out, there is a limit to what ever this great ‘‘spirit, skill and hard work’’) can accomplish. It needs in creased aids of labor, machinery, fer tilizer, price, etc., to go with those basic virtues. ’The hot subject right now in this entire matter is that of seeding' the largest crop of grain on record. That is a crop that fills many needs, re quires less labor than many others, and can be handled by macblnery. If we ore to measure up with it, now Is tbs time to be getting the seed in the - grottnd.—Farms- need- ttrforget' usuai customs of cropping and see the war needs first.
