Spring is here and it is time to plant for production of food. Food is one of the strongest assets in war. America wants to have plenty of food for every need and to supply our fighting allies. For this reason all rural people are urg ed to plant gardens adequate for home use and with some surplus to sell. People in urban areas who have suitable land for gardens and who can garden intelligently are also asked to grow some food. However, people without experience in growing food and without suitable soil for such use are asked not to waste precious seed and fertilizer in a venture destined to failure. A grteat majority of our people here were bom and reared in rural homes and know the fundamentals of gardening, if not farming. If you have a suitable place, go ahead and grow something to eat. What you can grow and use will mean that much less to be purchased from stocks which could go to our armed forces and our allies.

Hoarding of commodities produces two certain results—high prices, and govern ment-enforcing rationing. Axl exeelfant ^ami^-of that is touched- oa in one oi Paul Mglbn's recent columns. Writing on the sugar situation, Mr. Mallon says: “Food authorities have counted up sugar stocks and concluded these are suf ficient to furnish 99 pounds to everyone in this country this year. The average con sumption for eight years from 1932 to 1940, was 103 pounds, so the amount available is only four pounds less than nor mal . . . “But whether you will get your 99 pounds this year, is a question. . . . While stocks are are almost adequate, hoarding continues. Rationing is inevitable, solely because of demand and not because of in adequate supply.” In short, those who hoarded sugar brought the rationing program on them selves and all other consumers. And the hoarders will not even be individually ben- efitted by their abnormal stocks—when you get your sugar ration cards, tickets •will be removed to compen.sate for what ever excess supply you have on hc.nd. Ex- •treine severe criminal penalties are pro vided for fraudulent declarations. The best advice any consumer can take is this: “Buy normally—don’t purchase :n excessive quantities—don’t hoard.” The retail stores of this country are preaching that doctrine now. It is an es.sential pro tection against inflation and shortages of necessities. You can be certain that free competition in manufacturing and mer chandising will keep prices at the lowest level—and make possible the widest dis tribution of goods of any kinds.

In that war, retail prices increased fas ter than wholesale prices. In this war, re tail prices have increased substantially leas than wholesale prices. For instance, from June, 1989, to February, 1942, all wholmale prices increased 23.8 per cent —while all retail .prices showed average C^fnereases of only 12.1 per cent.
