Germany will need to increase its home production of these crops to replace the 300,000 tons of them hitherto imported. Such are the principal points covered by these experts.

But they insist, in their earnest, concluding words, that this can only be done by carrying out thoroughly all the methods of producing and saving food products advised by them. It is a serious problem, indeed, but one which, all Germany is convinced, can and will be solved. HOCH DER KAISER BY GEORGE DAVIES _HOCH DER KAISER! Amen! Amen!
