It is just ten years since Sir WII~ liam Crookes, president of the British Association for the Advancement of Science, presented his alarming ar- ray of statistics, proving to his own satisfaction, at least, that by the year 1928 the entire population of the globe would be face to face with starvation, or, at best, short rations, for the reason that the produc- tion of wheat could not possibly keep pace with the progressive-increase In the world’s population. Sir Wil- llam failed to take'into consideration the neglected and nngathcred harvest or the seas. In the great Sargasso Sea, alone. In the North Atlantic ocean, suthclen l :tritious vegetation flourishes and decay, to support the entire population of Europe, If It were harvested and prepared In a manner fitting it for human consumption. 0n the sea. beaches of the United States. enough protelds are cast up by the waves and allowed to decay and des- slpate into .thei‘i riglnal elements, to take the place «the whole product of the northwestern wheat fields. If the world's teeming millions ever face wholesale hunger, it will not be on account of any ntggardliness on the part of nature. or any, other shortslghtedness of Providence, but because mankind lack the wit to uni toe the food materials that exist In shperabundance. —-Technlcal World NORWALK. 80.
