Address of DEAN FRANCIS O. CLARK on
Winning the War by Farm Work
Must Increase Products One-haf and Not Raise Price,
More Winter Food. More Beans and Peas

Perhaps the greatest test Of an
educated man is his ability TO
meet emergencies, and TO help
others act wisely under trying cir
cumstances.
We are all aware of the tact tia.
our natiop no~ faces the greatest
emergency III the life Of this gene
ration, that our ability 10 qualify
ourselves to supply the needs Of our
nation may largely determine our
future progress. have made
several long trips through the states
Of Tennessee and Kentucky TO find
out what the leaders regarded as
the greatest needs Of our time. Our
Mr.. Montgomery arrived about one
half hour before | met him and he
gave me the message sent out by
the government. The first request
Of the commission from France and
England is that the U. S. take over
the responsibility Of producing the
food necessary to feed the armies on
the battle fields. This means that
we must increase by one-half our
production of staple food supplies.
The last years food production in
the U. 5. was abuot nine billion
dollars. and we must be ready TO
ship abroad half this amount.
This increase in production must
be brought about without inoreas-
ing the cost. IL is unfair TO force
the high prices on the government
at this time, and we should always
keep in mind the fact that the gov
eminent could fix the price on all
Of our products. President Wilson
says that this will not be done if
we can produce this surplus at a
moderate cost Otherwise, the
government will be compelled TO
take hold Of all the crops We
produce and set the price.
Then the government will i'm
mediately take hold Of all hogs and
cattle and the price Of beans, ETC.,
will be set at so much per pound
and no more. At least one-half OF
the food in our local stores is pro-
duced out Of the state Of Kentucky.
Each state must produce for itself
enough to maintain its people and
the surplus can be sent to the gov
eminent. This will mean the great
est production that the people Of
Kentucky have ever undertaken.
The difficulty that we encounter
in this increased production is that
we are not accustomed TO producing
enough Of the foods that we use IN
mid-winter. II is customary for our
people TO have more beans, vege-
tables, etc, than they can consume

spirit Of those who enlist in the
ranks, for their people, not for
themselves. shall confidently ex-
pect you to deserve and win the
confidence of people of every sort
and station.
To the men who run the rail-
ways of the country, whether they
be managers or operative employees,
let me say that the railways are the
arteries of the nations life and that
upon them rest the immense re-
sponsibility of seeing to it that those
arteries suffer no obstruction OF any
kind, no inefficiency or slackened
power. To the merchant let me sug-
gest the motto, small profits and
quick service;" and to the ship
builder the thought that the life of
the war depends upon him. The
food and the war supplies must be
carried across the seas no matter
how many ships are sent to the bot
tom. The places OF those that go
down must be supplied and supplied
at once. To the miner let me say
that he stands where the farmer
does; the work OF the world waits
on him. II he slackens or fails,
armies and statesmen are helpless.
He also is enlisted in the great Ser
vice Army. The manufacturer does
not need TO be told. l hope, that the
nation looks TO him 10 speed and
perfect every process; and l want
only TO remind his employees that
their service is absolutely indispen-
sable and is counted ON by every
man who loves the country and its
liberties.
Let me suggest, also, that every
one who creates or cultiyates q gar

in season and then be compelled 10
buy the same class of foods i'm mid
winter.
Flour and sugar are two staple
products that will be absolutely out
of reach of the average consumer.
We must grow our own sweetening
and bread; this means the increasing
Of our sorghum crop, or our buck
wheat crop and Of all other kinds
Of grains that can be used in bread.
The standard To be desired is that
each county, locality and each state
will be able TO feed itself without
importing the large amounts OF
flour, beans, sugar and canned goods
that we have been accustomed TO.
Each county should have an organ
ization Of business men and farmers
who will definitely make plans TO
discuss and provide for the emer-
gency in the following ways:
1. Increase the acreage and the
methods Of eultivating staple
foods crops.
2. Supply labor where needed.
3. Supply capital where needed.
!. Organize for economy in har-
vesting and conserving crops.
5. Arrange for transportation and
marketing these crops.
6. Plan economy in all matters of
home consumption.
In many sections the young men
who do not work will be put in jail
and then have the working statute
applied. II is genuine case OF
work IL we wish 10 eat" This
county committee should decide up
on the products that the county may
best plan to ship out. For instance,
one county should concentrate on
sweet potatoes, another on irish po-
tatoes, another on soy beans, COW
peas or some other definite crop.
In many sections, the bankers and
business men should cooperate in
the buying Of seed, fertilizer, pea
thrashers, Gamers and store houses,
thus assisting the farmers Oh the
different sections of the county to
care for this surplus. The price o!
meat will make it necessary for
many Of our people to use more
plants of the legume class, such as
peas, beans, etc.
Corn is high in fat, and is not o
complete food, but corn and beans
together would make a complete
balanced food and feed an army.
Our house wives must give special
attention to the problem of cooking
in an attractive way such crops as
COW peas and soy beans. A bushel
of either of these contains twice as
The citizen. [volume] (Berea, Ky.) 1899-1958, 1917-05-03

much food as a bushel of corn, and
can be produced at less expense
than two bushels of corn.
The wheat supply in our country
is very short and these legume crops
of the pea family may be ground in
to meal, which, when mixed with
corn meal, will make a new kind Of
bread Of very high quality.
We must not pillow up our meadows
for these new crops for the sup
ply of hay will be very high and the
supply short. We must save all Of
our hay and grass land and use the
available barren land for these new
crops. The average farmer can
make a fair crop Of corn by work.
ing his crop about three times a
season, while these new crops will
demand at least five workings if
they are TO be successful.
The supply Of seed for these staple
crops is very low and we should
arrange at once to purchase all the
seed we can use from some reliable
seed house. We must not enter
into this new movement with the
idea Of getting rich. Each farmer
must decide that il is wiser to help
feed the armies of Europe than to
furnish a son TO die in the trenches.
II is probably true that the conscrip-
tion bill will pass both houses Of our
national government within a few
hours and this will certainly mean
an increase in the number of men
that will be called upon in our own
section. Kentucky has now enlist
ed but II percent. Of the men that
will be needed. II is a very inter-
esting and important fact to keep in
mind that the young men who VOL
unteer their services for work on
the farms are not likely to be draft
ed into the army. All patriotic
young men should be willing to
work on the farms for the same
wages that they will receive il they
went to the army, which is $500
a month and keep.
There are many young men now
in schools and colleges, at Berea and
elsewhere. who do not spend the
summers at home on the farm be-
cause they say the farm does not
produce the surplus which can be
sold and turned into money to pay
college bills. We now have a great
opportunity to show our patriot
ism, develop our farms, and bring
our country to the front. May we
not count on every man from Berea
taking hold of this movement as o
genuine opportunity and a chance
for service?
The citizen. [volume] (Berea, Ky.) 1899-1958, 1917-05-03

den helps, and helps greatly, to
solve the problem of the feeding Of
the nations; and that every house,
wife who practices strict economy
puts herself in the ranks Of those
who serve the nation. This is the
time for America to correct her IN
pardonable fault OF wastefulness
and extravaganza. Let every man
and every woman assume the duty
of careful, provident use and expen-
diture as a public duty, as a dictate
of patriotism which no one can now
expect ever TO be excused or forgiven
for ignoring.
In the hope that this statement
of the needs Of the nation and OF
the world in this hour of supreme
crisis may stimulate those to whom
il comes and remind all who need
reminder Of the solemn duties Of
time such as the world has never
seen before, bag that all editors and
publishers everywhere will give us
prominent publication and as wide
circulation as possible TO this appeal.
I venture to suggest. also, TO all ad-
yertising agencies that they would
perhaps render a very substantial
and timely service to the country il
they would give il widespread repe-
tition. And hope that clergymea
will not think the theme Of II an
unworthy or inappropriate subject
of comment and homily from their
pulpits.

INSPECTION Of
BALLOTS ENDS;

Republicans Say Campbell
Has 157 Plurality and Hunt
Claims Lead by 1876, Ex-
elusive of Disputed Tickets,
10y MORNING JOURNAL sprc,A. LEASED WIRE


Phoenix, Arz., Jan. S.-The inspec-
ton of the ballots in the Hunt Camp
bell contest for the governship was
concluded tonight and the results have
been tabulated by the republican state
committee officials, showing the votes
by counties for each of the candidates
as returned by the election officers;
the results as determined by the in
spection boards, and the number of
disputed ballots. The inspectors for
Governor Hunt have not yet submitted
their table, but claim of a majority
for Hunt is made as shown by the dis
covery of clerical errors by election
boards. A gain Of 1876 votes for Hunt
is claimed. The table submitted by
the republican committee gives Camp
bell plurality of 157 instead of 30,
as was shown by the official count.
Both figures are exclusive of the dis
puted ballots. The supreme court, 1t
was announced today, will hand down
a decision tomorrow morning on the
motion of Senator Ives, counsel for
Governor Hunt, to strike from the
complaint of Campbell in his appli-
cation for a writ of mandamus, all
reference to events leading up to the
issuance of the certificate of election
of the latter. In case the motion is
allowed, arguments will proceed on
the amended complaint.
