Produce and Save, Says Graham.

Raleigh-'Our country is at war
every pound of non-perishable food
produced, every pound of loss or waste
prevented-is a help"
This sermon, in read letters, now
appears on the stationery of the State
Department of Agriculture.
In every letter going out from the
office of Major w. A. Graham, Com
missioner of Agriculture, is an insert
with a two-word heading Produce
Save"
The statement reads:
"Our country is at war. It is a war
based as truly on resources, food and
production as on men, cannon and
ammunition.
There is no possible danger of
over-production of any non-perishable
food, whether crops or meat. Produce
every possible pound of non-perishable
food, and store safely:
with production goes prevention
of loss, damage and waste-whether
by diseases of animals, diseases of
plants, insect enemies, or otherwise.
"The State Department of Agricul-
ture through it's various divisions, is
giving every aid in it's power to help
ur people to meet this crisis. We adj
wise, urge and implore that all our
people with due attention to economy
produce every pound of substantial
food possible, and that they prevent
loss and waste from whatever source.
every pound of non-perishable food
produced every pound Of loss or waste
prevented, is a real help.

GOVERNOR APPEALS.
FOR NAVY RECRUITS
CALLS UPON PEOPLE OF STATE
TO FURNISH QUOTA OF EN-.
LISTED STRENGTH.
DISPATCHES FROM RALEIGH
poinqs and Happenings That Mark
the Progress Of North Carolina Peo-
pie, Gathered Around the State
Capital.

Ralelgh.
Governor T. w. Beckett qualified as
naval recruiting officer when he ad.
dressed to the people OF the state an
energetic appeal for the states full
quota Of 400 men for the United States
Navy. Governor Beckett calls atten.
ton to the slowness with which the
naval enlistments are progressing in
the state and urges campaign from
April % to April 80 in every town of
the state with as many as $500 peo-
pie for providing men for the nations
first line of defense. He suggests a
patriotic mass meeting on Monday
night, April 80, when, the campaign
closes.
Il cannot conceive it to be possible, -
says Governor Beckett, that the state
that has had five secretaries of the
navy will fail to do it's palm duty in
this crisis of the Nations life.''
Governor Bickett's appeal reads:
ITO the People of North Carolina:
The Nation has called upon the
state Of North Carolina to furnish four
hundred men for the United States
yet only about fifty men have thus far
volunteered. I am persuaded that the
failure to enlist is largely due to lack
of knowledge of the work of the Navy
and of the supreme necessity for adj
ditional men at this time. Therefore
l call on all the people of the state
to give earnest heed to the needs of
SIo
town in the state containing as many
as twenty-five hundred people there
be commenced an active campaign for
the Navy beginning on Monday, the
23d and ending on Monday night, the
30th of April. On the night of the
Goth let the campaign be closed with
a great patriotic mass meeting in
which the paramount Importance of
the Navy as our first line of defense
should be set forth. AT these meet
ings the actual work Of the men in
the Navy with the chances of promo
ton should be fully explained
Recruiting stations for the Navy
are now located at Ashevi1le, Char
lotte, Winston-Sa1em, Greensboro,
Raleigh, Fayetteville, Goldsboro and
Wilmington. Officers will be sent to
any town in the state upon request
made to the nearest recruiting station.
