FRESH EGGS EVERY DAY. WE DELIVER The Specialty Grocery 628 Main St. Phcne A76 COUNTY AGENTS TO AID FOOD OUTPUT WASHINGTON', Aug. 17. The task of maintaining during Iho war an ample supply of food will be attack ed ou a still larger scale by the Uni ted Stat ok Pepartm!!! of Agriculture through a score or more of projects, under the provisions of the food pro duction bill Just enacted by congress. While most of the projects will be extensions of present act tvlties, some of them wtl Irepicscnt new undertak ings. The task will bo to find Just where the country standing in so far as the adequacy of the present food supply is concerned, to speed up the production of food crops wherever this can be done, and to tdop as many is possible of the leaks through which hundreds of millions of dollars' worth of edible products annually is wasted. Kleven million, three hundred ana forty-six thousand, four hundred dol lars ure made available for the work the food production bill. This money is for emergency use in addi tion to the funds appropriated In the egular agricultural appropriation bill for tho usual activities of the de partment. The hill also is distinct from the food control bill, a measure having to do chiefly with the regula tion of the distribution of food. To Increase County Agent l-Yre One of the most important stops to be taken in emergency agricultural rk will be the extension of the ex isting force of county agents -the joint field employees of the Depart ment and the States who come Into most direct contact with farmers. With the addition of tho new county agents an ugenl will bo situated in practically every agricultural county in tho t'nitt d StateH, that will co operate to advise and assist farmers every way possible on matters of production, conservation and mar keting. The number of women county agents in rural counties will be considerably increased and other wmen agents will be placed In a number of the larger towns and cities. These women will stimulate the pro duction of garden truck, poultry nnd other products by women and chil dren, and will advise and instruct In regard to the most efficient meth ods of food utilization and conscrva tion. NO GUARD OFFICERS FROM OUTSIDE RANKS WASHINGTON, Aug. IS. Hy the ttrms of th national defense act the futu officering of the national guard units drafted Into the federal service Is provided, a fact which is evidently not understood by many commission seekers, some of whom have written to congressmen asking if they could be ussigned to this ser vice. The national defence act says that commissions in the national guard shall he given to men belonging to that organization, appointments be low the rank of colonel being placed absolutely in the hands of the presi dent. Above that rank the president's selections must be confirmed by the senate. Apparently there is no way in which a man from the regular army from civil life or from the new draft army, w hich is officially known as i he national army, can break into a commission in the nat innal gourd. Th- emu missions will go in nat ural course to non-com missioned officers of 1 he national guard as vacancies j Occur, Adjutant General Mr 'a in in this connection has informed Sena tot Chamberlain that the poliry of th: department probably will be to select officers for the nat tonal guard ff rom lists of the non-commissioned offi- naturally less.
