LOOK OVER THE OCEAN

We suggest to those planters who
are determined to grow all cotton ane
nothing else to take a look over the
Atlantic ocean as it is at present ano
may be for some time TO come.
The German submarines are exact
ing tremendous toll. They are cutting
down shipping to the point that the
British admiralty is under fire for not
neutralizing their effort
If ship room should become SO
scarce that only food and munitions
could be sent abroad, there will not be
much room for cotton. This, along
with the freight congestion in this
country, might result in a price which
would not be remunerative and would
not 60 far toward buying very many
bushels of corn at $1.50 a bushel and
flour at S12 barrel.
We ought to grow good cotton
crop, but we ought to grow enough
corn, COW peas and hay to feed our
selves and our live stock. And then
we ought to grow enough hogs and
chickens for ourselves.
And, on top of this, we ought to
grow some of those products to sell.
Then we are safe. Then we will not
only be safe, but we will have made
q contribution toward the successful
prosecution of a common cause
