A SEED SHIP
The America. people have perform
0d two great services. for. Europe, in
feeding starving Belgium and in send-
ing the shipload of Christmas gifts
to: the war orphans. it seems now
that another opportunity may be giv-
en them for a. big and unique philan»
, thropy. There is talk of an agricultur-
al relief ship. laden with-seed for the
spring sowing.
Though there is no plethora of grainI
in any of the warring countries ex-
cept Russia, most of them will doubt-
less be able to provide the requisite
seed. Two countries. however, arei’d
dire need—Sends and Belgium. The
{orthorhas been so thoroughly strippw
ed d} her food reserves by three cost-
ly, wars in quick succession, that it
_-. {viii be impossible to raise half the us-
: funl crops this year unless seed is pro
' :vided by foreign philanthropy. Bolgi

cause alter the German incasion the
" * country's grain was confiscated and
l ’ ”the people ever since have been too
C impoverished to buy more. The situa-
il" ‘flsians, is probably as ”bad or nearly as
lied. in all three cases, thé population
'f'will face lusiitable starvation the
a coming year unless they are given
help in starting the new crops.
Agricultural implements and live-
7 stock are sadly needed, but the most
pressing need is for seeds. so that the
women and children, and the men left
capable of work. may untlliue their do-
vaSted soil. Russian Poland is at pre-
sent in as sad a case, :but it seems
I‘likely that Russia will flndsmeans of
