He said: | "There has been a vast expansion of j credits, not only in this country but i throughout the civilized world, and j workers have manifested since the suspension of hostilities a desire to ! relax from the rigors of the war-time j /I r?4-i n r\/-.s\ v\ r\ > v> ? r*r? r>/l ! i.1 UilL uiaouv^ c^viiviniva a"\* j derivations, and they are at the same j time demanding shorter working! hours and more pay. Because of this , and of the impairment of productive j capacity, there has heen a curtailment of production and higher costs in the j proeeses of distribution, which has j driven prices up to a higher level than j was reached during the closing ; months of the war."

"just one more big crop'' of cotton, j Consequently they are receptive for! help in regard to tobacco, livestock, j truck, peanuts, sweet potatoes, and i i other protection against the weevil. The first meeting was held at Ehr- j hardt. September 11, and was attended j by at least 100 farmers. Talks were ; made by District Agent Henry S.
