APPEALS TO FARMERS
President Wilson Appeals to Farm.
ers to do Their Utmest in Pro-
duCinQ food Products.

Il take the liberty of addressing g
this word to the farmers of the
country, and to all who work on the
farms:
The supreme need Of our own ma
ton and OF the nations with which
we are co-operatin is an abundance
OF supplies, and especially, of food
stuffs. The importance of an ade-
quate food supply, especially for the
present year, S superlatlve. Without
abunuant food alike for the armies
and the peoples now at war, the
whole great enterprise upon which
we have embarked will break down
and fail
The worlds food reserves are
emergency Lut for some time after
peace shall have come both our own
people and large proportion Of the
people Of Europe must rely on the
harvests in America.
Upon the farmers of this coun-
try, therefore in large measure,
rests the fate OF the nations. May the
no step that will increase the produc-
ton of their land or that will bring
about the most ettectual cooperation
IN the sale and distribution of their
food products: The time is short. 1t
is OF the most imperative Importance
tnat everything DOSSlDle be done ana
done Immediately to make sure of
large harvests.
Il call upon young men and old
alike and upon the able bodied boys
OF the land to accept and act upon
this duty-tO turn in hosts to the
farms and make certain that no
pains and no labor is lacking in this
great war.
The government Of the United
States and the Governments of the
several states stand ready to coop
crate. They Will do everything pos
sible to assist farmers in securing an
adequate force of laborers when they
are most needed at harvest time, and
the means of eXpedting shipments
of fertilizers and farm machinery, as
we'll as of the crops themselves when
harvested. The course of trade shah
be as unhampered as it is possible to
make it and there shall be mo unwar-
ranted manipulation IF the nation S
food. supply by those who handle it
on it's way to the consumer. This is
our opportunity to demonstrate the
efficiency of the great democracy and
we shall not fall snort of it
