AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT To Farmers, Bankers and Business Men in the South. Safety. For nearly three years I have done my best to warn you to prepare for the present emergency. For years we have tried to encourage diversifi cation in the South as h bisas for greater safety, both agricultural and economic. Since the war began in Europe we have urged Safe Farning. When prices were low you did well and made great progress. When cot ton went to eighteen cents and over you made large profits because of your progress in Safe Farming, but some were tempted to go back to cot ton. In common with many other men, I have tried to warn you of that danger. Cotton has not been high but has only increased in somewhat less proportion than food and feed. Now the Crisis is Here! This great Nation must arouse herself for a mighty struggle for liberty. People without food and armies .without ra tions are conquered before they can '- begin to fight. Our greatest safety now lies in Food Production and in saving the wvaste products. If the South is to be Strong she must have Food. If this country is to be Strong she must be well fed and have an abundance to sustain those friendly people who are even now fighting our battles for liberty and democracy. ,Transportation may be (disturbed. Your own defense requires you to -Produce and Conserve your Food sup ply. Don't Fail Now! It is a Na tional problem of defense as import ant as men andl guns, ship~s and can non. Business Men, if seed is short can vass the situation like patriots and ~get the seed for farmers. Arrange ~the credits. Furnish farmers seed corn, soy beans, cowvpeas, velvet beans, peanuts, sorghum, etc., at cost. See that all things necessary to help farmers are (lone. Of course, we must produce cotton, but with a mod erate acreage and a good season there will be enough. Do not sacri flce acres of F~ood to Increase your acreage in cotton. Look Ahead! Get the warehouses, the feed mills, shel lers, cleaning stations, creameries, packing plants, etc. ready. You must do0 your share and cooperate with farmers. They -must (10 their share and tend the crops faithfully. Farmers, in your Unions, clubs and othemr organizations, resolve toUse the Best Methods now. When the Na tion faces a crisis we must have the best farming in its history. Labor is .short, hence the best tools and all labor-saving devices must be used to make It possible for every farm lab orer to cover as,* much ground as possible and do the most efficient work. Farm women and girls have important work to do in theo garden, the orchard, in raising poultry, and especially In canning, preserving and conserving our food supply.
