pOrtsnt that every Southern farmer shall
produce the foods and foodsturs needed
for the people and animals on his farm
and a surplus for sale" Nsaid President
Fairfax Harrison, OF the Southern Rsll-
way System, in the lobby Of the Willard
yesterday
Vast quantities Of foods and forage
will be required FOR our own army and
navy and for our allies in Europe. These
requirements for carrying on the war must
be met, even though our people az home
have TO be put on short rauons There IS
every reason to believe that prices OF
foods and foodstuns will be high. and.
while it is the patriotic duty OF every
Southern farmer TO produce not only
enough 10 supply himself but q surplus
for sale, he will find It profitable 70 do so.
Every movement for the encourage
ment OF the production OF food crops and
meats and for the planting OF home gar
dens on every farm and on vacant lots ia
the cities and towns should be en-
couraged. 1 am confident that II every
Newspaper in the South will CSrry in each
issue pointed and vigorous editorial on
this subject our problem Of feeding our
selves and doing our share toward feed
ing our army and navy and those OF our
allies will be solved"

Cuss the most effective means Cuba
can employ in her cooperation with
this country as an active ally.
Senior AzpiazU's cableFram said:
"Cuba's participation in the world con
flict signifies that she will cooperate
intelliEently and to the fullest extent
with the United states and the allied
powers in the prosecution OF the war.
Just what specific measures will be

doubtless be given out for publication
within the next day or two. The interest
rate is expected to be . 1-2 per cent with
the bonds offered for general public sub
sCription at 100.
There was a good deal of satisfac-
ton felt in the financial district today
over the semi-otficial intimation that the
first fnstallment OF bonds to be so oftered
would not exceed 1900, 100000 instead OF
an effort to float the full amount of S.oOo.-
100000 Of bonds as per the original plan,
leaving the s., 900, 10000 of one-year Treas
ury notes for hotation at some later date
after the second installment of the re-
naming s., 10000 Of bonds has been
arranged.
