condition should be the same as
the corn that has heretofore
been supplying the demand.
While a mallamount can be
marketed i'll the ear, the major
portion will be shelled and
sacked. 1t should be shelled,
cleaned and sacked in even
weight sacks. That is what the
market demands and if we are
to supply demand we must find
ont just what is wanted and as
nearly as possible comply with
the requirements.
Did you read the four letters
addressed to farmers, merchants
consumers and others, by the
state department of Agriculture
and printed in all of the state
papers during Januaryg Those
letters outlined sensible and
practical marketing proposition
that will be further considered
at the Grown in Mississippi

corn applies to other articles as
we'll and they will be considered
from time to time We can
market staple crops at a profit it
we will 60 att in a sensible
manner, Marketing is one Of
the biggest problems confronting
the American people, but here
in Mississippi we have demand
for many million dollars worth

outside markets.

Mississippi with some twenty

we can have it for market prop
erly. At present it is on the
bow seen by the fellow in
the North and West.
Let's begin right here at home
to find a market for our diversi-
fed crops by growing the things
that our home market demands

cant of the economic changes resulting
from the war, however. that Industrial
