den commission, to a CitliSn reporter
yesterday afternoon. Mt. Pack, who
arrived In Asheville Saturday morning-
for a visit of several daya to his
mother at 140 Merrlmon avenue, was
speaking of the enthusiasm with
which the people of the country have
grasped the Idea of food conservatioi.
and home gardening and are working
them both to the limit.
"The foodstuff the city man raises."
continued Mr. Pack, "In this time of
emergency. Is of far greater economic
value than what the farmer raises,
for the very simple reason that the
city men or women raise their stuff
f. o. b. kitcben step or pantry shelf,
and the cost of expressing ahd dray
Ing la not Incurred aa In the case of
tha foodstuffs grown by the subur
ban population.
"The Food Commission recently
adopted the slogan: 'f. o. b. pantry
shelf and the city women are taking
It up with a vim and pushing It to a
finish."
Three Times Amount.
According to Mr. Hack, expressed
In area, the cultivation of laud In
towns, cities and villages. Is mo: e
than threo times as large as that un
der cultivation InjJt year.
"Recently I had a conference with
rr. P. P. Olaxton, United States com
missioner of education, and who by i
the wav, was at one time supertntcn- I
dent of the city schools of A-sheville.
regarding the work the schools can
do In time of war, towards conserv
ing and enlarging the nation's food
supp'v. Pr. Claxton said that the
school children of the south aro wide
awake to the situation and aro to the
front In this matter, as people of the
south are in any matter. In no part
of the country bto people to be found
who are quicker to take up new ideas
of constructive value than in the
south.
"Tn Indiana and Nptv Jersey, two
widely separated states, the hoards
of education have- hired all domestic
science teachers through the summer
months and at the present time. nra--tloallv

the most fashionable and exclusive
residential street In the city, cut up
into small gardens. In some cities,
he said, the authorit'es have taken
the vacant lots, ploughed them at the
city's expense; then turned them over
to the people to be phinted and tend
ed. This plan has bien highly suc
cessful. Kpeaklng of canning club work.
Mr. Pack said that the progress made
In this work has been nothing short
of remarkable. In North Carolina,
clubs have canned already this year.
1.650,000 more cans than were canned
during the entire 1918 season and the
presort canning year is lust getting
well under way. This information
was given him by a representative of
the canning cltvb work In the state,
who was a Washington visitor last
week. He also was authority for the
statement that some North Carolina
clubs have secured this year a total of
4.000,000 cant, all of which will he
filled soon.
Interest ia Oanning.
"While there always has In the past
been more Interest in the east it ran
nlng than In drying," said Mr. Pack,
"this year there la a larger propor
tionate Interest In both the canning
and drying of fruits and vegetables
than heretofore."
As an illustration of the Increase. 1
Interest, Mr. Pack sn;d that two wnks
ago the commission had prinN-d I,.
000,000 additional copies of the
manual Issued by the commission.
'Since his arrival in Asheville he has
been forced to tolxgraph the Washing,
ton office authorizing the printing of
nn additional mllpon enptes in nrd' r
to keep up with the f nornious daily
deimand.
Mr. Pack if hlghh gratified with the
succe.ns of the commission's food gar
den campaign inaugurated in the
early spring, the report of which will !
bo made public sonn. "Tim way in
which the people of the nation an
swered our apnea for a great fooi
yield via vegetable gardens, is ex.
ceedinsrly encouraging," he -Irr lnu l, ;

commission because the campaign got
