THE cRop FOR YOU TO-DAY.

According to an announcement by the
Bureau of Labor statisticians, general
food prices advanced = per cent from
August to September. Just as if they
were not already high enough, ell!
None of us can see day ahead. We
know not what the future may have in
store But take our word for this:
For the future there would seem to be
indicated 10 overSupply Of fOOdstuffs.
Far from it. With the farms pouring
their thousands upon thousands of
of war, there will be fewer and fewer
left at home from year to year to pro-
duce food for the world. So don't he
greedy--don't plant too much of your
land to cotton. Give over liberal
share to the production of things good
for man to eat The present prices of
cotton may tempt YOU in the other di-
feetion, but always bear In mind that
food for humanity is more important
than the making Of money. Aside from
that, cotton is not now our only money
crop. All crops have become money
{
farm, is skilled in farming and enjoys
the health to follow that calling, Is
lucky--morc so perhaps than ut any
time in the past. Stick to your farm,
and make it produce as never before.
Secretary McAdoo has announced
that the country must raise for war
purposes Eefore June Of next year ten
billion dollars. Also. that the next Sc
ries of Liberty Bonds will be offered
early during February. Ten billion
dollars il Il gigantic sum. but the c0uil-
IT,. is rich and rescurceful and is also
engaged in war on a gigantic scale. so
the money when demanded will have to
be advanced AS has often before been
stated, as regards the United States,
this is the peoples war. and for the
people to continue to prosper it must
succeed. Begin now to lay aside
fund for tue purchase of bonds of the
third issue--and in the meantime con-
serve all the foodstuff you possibly can.
The war may PROVE IL long-drawn strug-
gle. Let Us hope for the best, but pre-
pare for the worst that may come.
The contractors who are now build
ing the military highway from Camp
Beauregard to Ifneville have annOunc-
ed that they have about completed the
work Of putting down the rock founda-
ton and that one mile Of the hard sur
face has been laid. The Banner wishes
to suggest that this road construction
work offers an excellent opportunity
for the members of the police juries Of
the state and others who hold seriously
at heart the matter Of good roads. to
obtain some first-hand information
along this line II you have the time
te spare, why not visit the site and
learn for yourself how the Government
roads are constructed!
An American soldier of Gen. Per-
shing's forces, found guilty by court
martial OF criminal assault and muir
der OF French woman, has been ex-
ecuted by Il firing squad" So read a
news paragraph that appeared in the
daily papers. We do not know the ma
tionaiity of this unfortunate and mis-
guided trooper, but surely he should
have realized that in the American
Army. there was only death in store
