Ne Came Back.

He Came Back.
Theodore has come back home,
Goodness gracious, Willie!
All the folks In u. s. A.
Have about gone silly.
Hard old go fer old Woodrow,
To get the White House ready,
But his smile will be In style
When he welcomes Teddy.
Teddy went into the wild,
Over trees and under,
Finding rivers, killing snakes,
Just a-raising thunder,
Brought some hides. and bones be
sides,
Back to zoo and college,
Bet the kids will bust their lids,
Crammin' in the knowledge.

Some Southwest
ern Reflections

All over the district the spirit of
farm diversification is ripe. This
explains the interest the people are
manifeSting in our Potato Day"
meetings.
One of the gratifying evidences
of the changed sentiment of the
people is the change i'll the attitude
of the bankers and business men
towards farm Investigation. Five
years ago, the One-Crop system
was the key that unlocked bank
vaults and opened credit accounts.
Bankers and merchants forced
the one-crOp system OH the farmers.
They paid dearly for it when the
crop failed; for with cane, cotton,
or rice the lean years" are moe
numerous than the fat wears.
But all that has changed. One
of the Invest bankers in Southwest
Louisiana told me three weeks ago;
Our bank is anxious to help the
farmers, but we will not advance
one dollar to finance the farmer
who does mt diversity.
Another up-to-date banker told
me, Il am glad to help along your
Potato Day" campaign. | wrote
Us letters to Our clients urging
them to attend your meeting. We
are going to help them take up the
work..
Bankers and merchants forced
the one-crop system; now, repent
ing of their mistake, they are
helping the farmers to diversity.
Are you pulling your part of the
load? Pumpkin Vans for the early
market, constitute one step i'll the
direction of diversihcation and
prosperity; lespedeza i'll another
step.
A gentleman living in another
State, the representative Of one OF
the greatest trade journals i'll the
United States wrote few days
ago, I want to attend one of your
Potato Day" meetings. 1t is All
innovation which ought to be
encouraged A..
And after all. the way to diver
sifcation is, to diversity. Begin
with sweet potatoes, lespedeza and
corn.
