Pancakes for supper! Urge Congress to Accept Offer as First Step Toward Cheaper Fertilizer. y Congress is urged by the American Farm Bureau Federation in a letter just made public to accept Henry Ford's ofter for Muscle Shoals, declaring that his possession of the project would be the first step in securing for the farmer lower cost factors of production and distribution. the fiseal year ending 23, the federation sald, as imported 896,998 long tons of nitrate of soda. On this Imvur-l tation the consumer in America, whether a farmer using this nitrate of soda as a fertilizer, or & commer- 1 or explosive industry using it as raw material, pald a tax to the trea f the Chilean government of §1 $4.94. That is, this purely ar addition to the commercial value of nitrate of soda cost the consumer in this country over 10 per cent in- terest on the wartime expenditure at he Muscle S ants, in- In other words, the ee to manufacture 40,000 tons fixed nitrogen under the Ford is equivalent to an offer of $£200,000,000 for the Muscle Shoals nitrate plants, because the tax paye today are paying the Chile interest at the rate of 53z per cent on $200,- 000,000. “The annual expenditure of the farmers for fetilizer in this country over the past five vears has been in round numbers $300,000,000 a year.

SOUND SYSTEM SOUGHT Settler Must Be Selected, Protected and Given Aid. Old-time land boom and auction land sales methods are being discouraged in a concerted effort to prevent hap- hazard settlement and reclamation of idle lands by many state governments. A survey made through the Depart- ment of Agriculture discloses, it was made known today, that state officials and private organizations are working to bring about a sound and legitimate system of land settlement, which will benefit the settler as well as the country. Methods of attracting settlers with flamboyant posters and exhibition trains bearing gaudy banners and loaded with fruits, vegstables and grains that can not possibly be pro- duced under ordinary farming condl- tions, and by promises of easy re- turns, are passing, it was learned, be- cause of the new state policies of land settlement. The most striking departures are control of real estate sales through licensing real estate brokers, state supervision of settlcments, the grant- Ing of financlal gssistance to settlers, extending the working powers of the bureaus of immigration, revised poli- cies of taxation for cutover lands and woodlands on farms, road-building campaigns and the changed attitude toward the participation of the state in plans to tie-up settlement policies with the preparation of undeveloped lands for'agricultural uses. ate officials throughout the coun- it was found, agree that the time has come when settlement of wild land must be systematized and regu- lated and that the settler must be se- lected, protected and assisted if he is to become an asset and not a lla- bility. - o OFFERS PHILIPPINE BILL.
