RAISE FOOD, IS APPEAL
OF BARRETT TO FARMERS
Serve Country and Self by So
Doing, Says Head of
Farmers Union
Especial Dispatch to The Journal)

Especial Dispatch to The Journal)
UNION CITY. Ga, May &C. S. Bar
rett. president of the Farmers Educa-
tional and Cooperative union of Ameri-
ca, has issued the following appeal to
the southern farmers:
ut rearely happens that patriotic serv-
triot
Real patriotism is almost another
name for self-denial and sacrifice.
For the first time in my memory the
farmers of the country have an oppor-
tunity to render patriotic service of
a value so great that it cannot be esti-
mated and at the same time to make a
profit for themselves.
TT is one of those rare occasions
where they cannot loose. If they should
by some miracle produce great staple
food crops they are certain to find a
splendid market for every pound of
foodstuffs they can part with, but if the
war SHOULD end tomorrow, and the mar
ket should even demand less, they would
have their own living secure and a profit
besides.
ITO those of us who have lived and
labored through the lean years this pros
pect comes like the mama in the wilder
ness.
American farmers have not had easy
shedding during a majority of the past
twenty years and certainly it seems fit
ting that such a splendid opportunity
should come to these hard pressed pro-
ducers to serve their country in vital
crisis, and to prosper themselves in the
giving of the service.
Our country today is the key which
will open the European deadlock. The
American farmer holds that key.
might even go further and say that the
southern farmer controls the key.
IF they use it intelligently so as to
strengthen the forces which are strug-
Cling against a military autocracy, they
will have rendered the highest service to
their own country and to the human
race.
That they will respond magnificently
| do not doubt. that they will likewise

Throughout the day the two sides
struggled and pushed back and forth.
Positions were taken and retaken time
after time. The British managed to get
hold in Bullecourt during the night by
occupying several houses in the south
east corner. Bombing parties slipped
out in the darkness. and twisting
through the streets and ruins peppered
the Boches I'm other houses. This sort
of fighting continued all through the
night the British bombers meeting
German bombers-man meeting man,
with the butts of rifles and even fists

As dawn came the Germans sailed
out with heavier forces. Understand

that the Germans had succeeded in re-
occupying the whole of Bullecourt.
Around Fresnoy, the Canadians stood
off all further counter attacks of the
same violent sort that have been di-
rected against them for twenty-four
hours, and managed to wriggle still
further forward up the German trenches
to the north of the village.
New posts were taken late today by
the British to the south of Oppy wood
and maintained against violent attacks.
IT was real spring weather but visibility
in the entire region of the fighting was
poor. owing to a low lying haze of dust
and smoke.
