ouse the people to a realization OF
the wonderful possibilities we pos
sess. Not only to feature what we
have, encourage better packing
and preparing for market Of our
salable products, assist in finding
a market for the surplus Of one Sec
ton in the deficit of another, but
to enlarge upon our present range
Of productions.
1t is a builders movement of
pure type, intended to benefit eve
ry citizen OF the state. 1t will not
only encourage a healthy interest
in what we are already growing,
but develop new products that can
be used at home and sold on the
markets for a profit. State pride
will be awakened in our people as
we'll as an appreciation ofour lands
and their unbounded possibilities.
The campaign outlined is more
stupendupus and farreaching than
any yet undertaken in this coun-
try. Stamp upon all products the
1words Grown in Mississippi"
or made in Mississippi, thereby
openly proclaiming to the world
that our products are good and we
are proud of them.
Every public speaker or lecturer
lis expected to devote a portion OF
his remarks to the slogan, be he
agricultural, live stock, farmers
union, political, or otherwise. 1t
is to be hoped that every minister
lin the state will devote one sermon
! during the year to the cause that
offers so much. in the way of in
. creGsed prosperity and happiness
Ito our people.
1t is contemplated to supply 6
