PAGE EIGHT TO DETERMINE ISSUES OF WAR PRESENT YEAR Culminating Crisis Seems to Have Coi|ie, President Wilson Tells Fanners. Washington. Feb. 4.?In a message to the nation's farmers delivered at an agricultural conference at Urbana, 111., President Wilson said he thought statesmen on both sides of the water realized that the culminating crisis of the war had come and this year's achievements would decide it. The message, which the President intended to present personally until attacked by a cold several days ago, was delivered by President James, of the University of Illinois. Recounting the aggressions of Germany, the President said: "We are fighting, therefore, as truly for the liberty and self-government of the United States as if the war of our own revolution had to be fought over again; and every man in every business in the United States must know bv this tlm? ?,?= whole future fortune lies in the balance. "Our national life and our whole future development will pass under the sinister influences of foreign control if we do not win. We must win, therefore, and we shall win. I need not ask you to pledge your lives and fotunes with those of the rest of the nation to the accomplishment of this great end. "You will realize, as I think statesmen on both sides of the water realize, that the culminating crisis of the struggle has come and that the achievements of this year on one side or the other must determine this issue." The President recalled that farmers fired the first shots at Lexington that set aflame the American revolution for liberty, and expressed the hope and belief that American farmers now will willingly and conspicuously stand by to win this 3 UNITED STATES FOOl SOl'TH <W * Study of the situation do depend largely upon flour fo Germany.

He said the farmers did not want themselves exempted from military service as a class, but that the attention of the war department was centered upon the task of interfering with farm labor as little as possible, and he believed that in the next draft the farmers would ilnd their labor much less seriously drawn upon than in the first.
