April 27, 1917- O f J I fering to lend a helping hand to Long Islanders who arc confronted with ob- ; stacles which j cultivation ; land, Ralph Peters, A. A. Johnson ! and F. M. Hill, today issued the fol- I lowing statem e n t on behalf of The Long Island Food Reserve Battalion: Plant Now, Plant Today. But Plant | Relief for the present increasing j shortage of food cannot be expected j before the Fall harvest, and the de- | gree of relief a t th a t time is being j determined by the amount of seed : that is being put into the ground to day. The chief thing, therefore, is to | Plant, and to Plant Now. A day’s ! delay will make a vast difference in ! the Fall’s return. 1 The Long Island F’ood Reserve Bat talion is making every effort to get the largest possible acreage planted with potatoes, corn and beans, the most desirable emergency foods. To this end, the Battalion urges upon the farm e rs, landowners and land- j lords, and every interested person, ] three specific things, as follow: ■ 1. It is most important: that seed should be in the grhunl a t the earli est date and that every atailable acre of tillable soil should be uti lized. The Battalion itself earnestly solicits the use of suitable land not otherwise engaged, and is prepared and willing to cultivate it foi the wel fare of all. 2. The Battalion can make all ne cessary help available at once. At the request of any farm e r, or land- owner, all necessary help can he furn ished, especially any number of older boys under competent and adequate supervision until the crops are har vested. d. The Battalion can supply all ne cessary funds to insure a large acre age under cultivation. No man need hesitate through lack of money. That no time may be lost in plant ing and that no land may lie idle in this critical hour, resources of labor, supervision, leadership and money, are placed at the disposal of the peo-; pie of Long Island. Let everyone take advantage of this offer so that the earth may yield her increase. Those who have land to offer, those who require assistance of either lab or, machinery or money, and those who desire instruction, advice or in formation concerning the plating, the cultivation and the harvesting of food crops, will he promptly answered if ! they will communicate with either the I Director General a t Farm ingdale, or | with the Secretary a t Mineola.

She said that the women under the British and other flags all around the world, either had the full 1 enjoyment of suffrage, or the immedi- : ate promise of it; while the American j women, just as eager to do their duty ; as citizens as other women, were de- i nied the right of citizenship. 1 Mrs, Norman de R.

Depot, HICKSV1LLE, L L W a shington Letter By Congressman Hicks 1 am again drawing the attention ] of my friends on Long Island to the great question of food supply. At my request the Department of Agricul ture has prepared a statem e n t which I embody in this letter: ! \The country needs food. It needs | food for itself and food for our allies in this War. In a recent statem e n t j the Secretary of Agriculture said: “The duty of the individual farm e r : a t this time is to increase his produe- : tion, particularly of food crops.\ | “Everyone, farm e r or not, who has i a little land at his disposal, has the ! same duty.\ I \Let me suggest also,\ said Presi- ;dent Wilson in his appeal to the Amer- i ican people, “th a t everyone who cre- ; ates or cultivates a garden helps, and helps greatly, to solve the problem of the feeding of the nations; and that every housewife who practices strict economy puts herself in the ranks of those who serve the nation.\ “Th£ production of. food is, then, no longer a m a tter of personal conven ience or profit. It is a patriotic ser vice. Every bit of available land should be working. Idle land wins no more wars than idle men. Every family which raises a part—it may be only a small part—of what it eats, leaves that much more for the rest of the world, for the soldiers and sailors who are fighting its battles for it. We cannot all be on the firing line but we can all help to feed those who are.\ Cordially. Frederick C. Hicks.
