OWS READY TO

six times this amount of money ex
pended in labor. For example, on<
ton of good fertilixer will now cos
about 946.00. The plant food in thii
quantity when applied to three acret
of land will give an increase of abou
750 pounds of lint cotton and 1,60<
pounds of seed. The lint at 30c pe:
pound amounts to 1225.00, and th<
seed at $80.00 per ton amounts t<
$60.00, making a total of $285.00.
Few business concerns net 60 pe

ment in labor, and supposing that hi
pays $1.00 per day for labor, thi
$46.00 invested in fertilizer, when in
vested in labor, would net him $46.00
whereas, when invested in fertilizer, i
gives him a net increase of $239.00
Thus it can be seen the tremendou;
advantage of supplementing labo
with liberal applications of plant foot
Likewise an improved piece of ma
chinery that makes it possible to cul
tivate an acre of cotton or corn wit]
perhaps half the labor ordinarily em
ployed, and cultivate it better, shoul
be looked to at this time as a sourc
of help in facing the labor shortage
Good seed of a strain Ktaown to d
well in a community will do much t<
ward increasing yields, without an li
crease of acreage.
Is this not a time when the farme
should be sure to use these three cro:
makers, to the fullest extent, t4 ofi

There is no royal road to food
conservation. We can only accomplish
this by the voluntary
action of our whole people, each
element in proportion to its means.
It is a matter of equality of burden;
a matter of minute saving
