ie PAGE Z , BISMARCK DAILY TRIBU SATURDAY, DEC. 7, 1918 PART TAKEN BY NATION'S SOIL ‘TILLERS NOTED, Secretary Houston Tells How Loyal American Farmer Won ‘the War 289,000,000 ACRES ARE SOWN Increase of 5,600,000 Over Pre- ceding Year, Agricul- ture’s Bit Washington, Dec. 7.—Tribute to the; part played by thenation’s soil tillers winning the war is paid by Secre- Houston in his annual report for | 1918, transmitted to Congress today by the White House. Bumper crops} were grown both this year and last in} spite of adverse weather, the secretary says, and the millions of men and | with the organized agencies assisting ; women and boys and girls on the farm! them performed satisfactorily the su- premely important task of sustaining their own country and those associated with it in the war. Emphasizing the difficulties and the absence of dramatie glamor in the war job of the farmer, Mr. Houston speaks with satisfaction of the charge during the past year toward giving agricul- ture a larger place in the newspapers} and magazines andthe world’s thought ; and bringing the great urban popu- lation into closer touch iwth rural life. Farmer Takes Chance “It is one thing to ask a man to; save”; says the secretary, contrast- ing the task of the one who conserves and the one who produces, “it is an-| other to ask him, confronted as he is by the chances of the market and the}! risk of loss from disease, flood and! drouth, to put his labor and capital | into the production of food and feeds, ! and the raw material for clothing.” Pointing out that the ‘size of the harvest may not measure the labors of the farmer, Mr. Houston records that the acreage planted this year in prin-| cipal products aggregated 289,000,000} acres, or more by 5,600,000 acres than in the preceding record year. Despite unfavorable climatic conditions, esti- mated yields for the year, with 1917 comparisons, were: WILSON SAILS! 1918 1917 Corn ....2,749,198,000 3,159,494,000 | Wheat ... 918,920,000 650,828,000!
