APPEAL TOPATRIOTISN
TO BUILD UP MISSISSIPPI
DIR. TAFT Butler Says II VIII Lead to
Our Agricultural indie
pendence.
(By Or, TAFT Butler, Editor Of The
Progressive Farmer)

Progressive Farmer.)
If during the last fifty years mere
~ the mules, hay, corn and meat use,
or consumed within this state had beer
grown in Mississippi" the resulting
wealth would have nvaled the golden
treasures Of the richest FL Dorado.
Our young men have played an i'm.
portant part IN the building Of ths
cities Of other states and the wealth
produced through depicting our soils
by our one-crop system has gone to
build up the great agricultural states
on our north, but had these resources
been fntelligently employed within
our own borders, in the growing Of
these four agricultural products only,
they would have brought us both fame
and fortune.
Mississippi cotton carries its own
trade mark, the superior excellence
Of its staple stamping it the worG
over as "Grown in Mississippi" and
when through state pride and a spirit
Of intelligent thrift and independence
we send out to the non-agricultural
world our share of those food pro
ducts which our agricultural re-
ducts which our agricultural re-
sources are able to stamp with the
same superior excellence with which
nature stamps our cotton, then indeed
will "Grown in Mississippi" be a
trademark of excellence and a slo-
gan to conjure with.
Use Mississippi Products.
When We show to the world that
we think Mississippi-grown farm pro
ducts the best in the world, by using
them ourselves, to the exclusion of
products grown elsewhere, then the
outside world will give a meaning to
the slogan "Grown in Mississippi" and
pay for the quality which it typifies.
So long as we remain an agricultural
state we must set our aim higher
than simply the production of home
supplies. We must also help to feed
the non-agricultural world.
First, let "Grown in Mississippi" be
our slogan to encourage the growth
Of home-used agricultural products
and then let us by this same slogan
make it known to all the world that
what is good enough for Mississippi is
the best in the world.

NOW IS A GOODTIME
FOR LIVE STOCK BUSINESS
Every Farmer Boy Should Invest in q
Heifer Calf and Raise Some
Corn.

For several years Mississippi has
had her corn clubs, pig clubs ant
girls canning clubs, and the record.
made by these clubs and the produc-
tions as a result Of their labors have
been revelations to all, The corn ciuh
movement has revolutionized tho
method Of growing corn and has
proved shat the older farmers could
learn q valuable lesson from their
sons lt has been demonstrated that
The older farmers knew very little
about the scientific production Of
this cereal says the Newton Record.
No one doubts the advantages that
I have accrued from these clubs, and
row that the farmers are learning
how to produce corn to The best nd
vantage, there Is another great on
portuniW confronting the boys and
yonug men in the live stock indus
thy, Each boy should invest in a
fms hcifer calf and see what he can
make out Of it, at the same time
making his acre or more Of corn. It
offers most excellent opportunity
to the lad who wants to branch out
in an industry that has great prom
Uses.
In this connection the following
from the Virginia Carolina Cattle As
sociation is Of especial interest:
If the Cotton States will organize
clubs similar the Boys Corn Clubs
in each township and get the boys
interested in the possibilities of pro
ducing beef cattle and raising hogs
on grass and legumes and have few
sheep on every farm after the Euro
pean war is over, it would advance
the Cotton States one hundred years.
"Cheap cotton is thing of the
past if the farmers organize and make
success of marketing this crop,
sow big wheat crop this fall, and
plant a big corn crop next spring,
thus reducing the cotton acreage
next year, and the mills and specu-
lators will start to buying cotton.
This will bring about new era in
farming in the south and marketing
the cotton crop.
"We are willing to undertake to
organize the breeders in the United
States in giving registered boar a
registered bull and a registered ram
to clubs in the Southern States if the
farmers and the school systems of
the south will meet us half way. We
are of the opinion that we could get
every breeder of registered stock in
the United States to contribute to
the clubs. The way to proceed is to
organize through the county superin-
tendent of public schools and the reg
isters of deeds, and secure the SER
vices of an executive secretary; take
the matter up with them and the
different breeders with a view to
getting the contribution to the club"

Children that are pale, sickly and
peevish with dark ring under the eyes,
tickle appetite, and who appear to get
