Already, erosion and misuse have robbed the nation of 100 million acres of cropland out of the 560 million acres acquired by the early settlers. Dr. Wendell H. Camp, curator of experimental botany and Natural Sciences of Philadelphia, declared. If adequate steps are not taken immediately, he asserted, another 100 million acres will have been discarded by 1960. Yet the population "now exceeds 150 million and is rising at the rate of 2,200,000 a year," Dr. Camp pointed out. Since nutritionists estimate that it takes two and a half acres of cropland to provide a properly balanced diet for a single person, the United States seems destined to arrive at the critical point at which it has just enough cropland "in the next fifteen or twenty years. Being the best fed, best clothed and most adequately housed people in the world, we somehow have the feeling that nothing can happen to change the situation." "Actually, we are potentially very close to the brink of disaster, and it is very likely that our actions in the next decade will decide wheth er America is to continue strong and able, or whether It will start down that long trail from which no people no civilization has ever re- turned." The world at large Is In even worse shape than the United States, for there are only about four billion acres of land available for a total population of more than two billion or slightly less than two acres per capita. This means that a considerable portion of the earth's population already is undernourished, and this as much as anything probably is at the bottom of the world's current unrest. riant breeding, reforestation, and Improved utilization of soil and fertilizers were among the methods by which Dr. Camp proposed to meet the imminent challenge to America's economy. New hybrid varieties of con. which have increased production by 25 per cent, and new species of grass which have raised the forage yield by more than 100 per cent were cited by the speaker, who said tree breeders also have developed hybrids promising quality lumber in one-thir- d to one-hal- f the usual time. These more efficient plants, however, impose new demands on the grower, who must supply them with enough mineral nutrients through the more efficient use of fertilizers. of miners Proper administration may make it possible to restore to production some of the acreage which has been despoiled.

If the kitchen is in existence or just on paper, there are many features that can be added to it to make it more comfortable and convenient. No matter how small, there's no kitchen that will not lend itself to some time and effort saving features, while at the same time giving you greater pleasure working in it. Greater storage space, conveniently placed, can be added to many an existing kitchen with simple adThe same applies to justments. working space. Certain in working areas can be made with simple changes and additions, and these will result in greater efficiency in food preparation. In both small and large kitchens, it's important to make wise use of space that's available. This applies not only to cupboards, but wall space as well. It's a temptation to spread out the working areas if there's a lot of working space, as in large kitchens, but it may be more important to condense. With the small kitchen every possible nook, cranny and wall area should be put to fullest use if the kitchen is to achieve maximum efficiency.

Innovations of this type are simple to construct and can be done by a handy man or the man of the house. In some cases shelves and racks may be purchased already made and need only to be hung. Place Cupboards Racks Strategically Kitchens need a knife rack or even two of them for real efficiency. If you can have two of them, by all means, do place one at the sink and another at the food preparation center. Racks should be placed at a height on the wall where they can be reached most easily for the person doing the most work in the kitchen. Determine which knives are used at each And pull-o- ut table to kitchen. of the two work centers, and then buy or construct a rack which holds the number and type of knives used. Knives placed at the sink area are usually of the small paring variety since this is where your fruit and vegetable preparation take place. At the food preparation area you may have bread and sandwich knives, as well as the different types of meat knives. If you have cabinets above the sink, these are best used for the daily dishes. In this way you can place the dishes or. the shelves without moving after washing. One type of cupboard for dishes Is the pull-ou- t type which is simple to construct. If the cabinet is a bit hard to reach, you can easily see the value of the pull-ou- t feature. Special racks for the different sized plates can also be placed in a pull-ou- t cupboard, as well as the stationary type to keep the dishes filed for easy access. Have you ever thought of a salad cupboard? These are excellent when placed right near the refrig-eratoIf there's some space underneath the regular cupboard and the working surface right below It. here's the space for just such a cupboard. Salad fork and spoon for tossing and serving can be placed on a rack on the inside of the door. On the single shelf in the salad cupboard you can stand a large wooden bowl, against the back of the cabinet. Condiments, oil and vinegar will take up the remainder of the space. If the cupboard can be made larger than the one described abovt, It may well hold individual V. 1U uture.

They'll be walking slowly, glancing in store windows as they pass. And suddenly they'll stop and stare. A dreamy, faraway look will come into the eyes of some; others will mirror excite- Simply For Essentials Many kitchens ignore the range area in their decorative scheme entirely but upon investigation you can find how really useful it is. If your cabinets and cupboards are crowded, see what you can do with the wall around the range to carry some of the load. Immediately above the range, or on the wall adjoining it, you can place a rack which will hold several of your most used pots and pans. Think how convenient this is to reach. Reach for a pan to place right on the range, and you can save unstacking and bending to a low cupboard to reach it Another useful shelf for the kitchen, and especially for range or food preparation area is a small one which would hold cannisters containing sugar, flour, coffee and tea. If desired, the shelf might be made long enough to hold a large sized salt and pepper shaker which could be used at the range. When the utensil rack is placed immediately above the range, this rack for cannisters can be placed along a side wall adjoining the range and it will give as great convenience as above the range. If the clean-u- p center (sink) is next to the stove either utensil or canister rack may be placed above the side nearest the range, and it will still be convenient. Should there be more space available near the range or sink area you may hang a rack with egg beater, large forks, slotted spoons and strainer there. Add Table Tops To Kitchens It's surprising how many kitch ens offer a sink top and a small table top as working space for the homemaker. No wonder it takes so long to prepare foods, and at the same time removes pleasure in the preparation. On the other hand, it's fairly easy to add table working space even to the small kitchen. One side of the kitchen window may have a small empty space of less than 20 inches in width. Wouldn't it be nice to have a table there? If you do not want to invest in a cabinet base, it's easy to construct a drop table for this. Fold it into the wall when not in use. Drop tables of this type, though not wide can be fairly long, thus giving nice top working space. Since they stand on two outer legs and are folded to the wall when not in use, they really take little space except while you work. Extension work tables are another asset for the kitchen which needs table top space for food preparation. Closets Give Good Storage A quick glance at many kitchens reveals a long but narrow space usually wasted right next to the range or refrigerator. With a cabinet to fit, this can be used for several shelves to house cleaning cloths, powders, soaps and cleaning brushes and equipment. Put the door of such a closet to use, also, with holders for a broom mop. brushes, etc. If you like, attach a mirror to the inside of the closet door with a narrow shelf underneath to hold comb, brush powder and lipstick for quick freshening of hair and makeup SOM m SP TONlTJ TENDER DELICIOUS tiy It's Wonderful the Way Chewing Gum Laxative I -- Acts Chiefly to Mill --HUT REMOVE I L4 I GOOD FOOD Here's the secret millions of folks lat toem discovered about feuj-a-mi- em chewing-gu- Yes, hmi laxative. m action Is so why fully different!
