Stratton u. Brooks, federal food adj
minlstrator, i'm an interview today
concerning the importance Of the mat
tcrs discussed at the meeting of the
Food Administrators OF the Southern
States, which was recently held at
New Orleans.
"The corn crop I'm the northern
states did not mature. stated Doctor
Brooks. "As I,,Sult the farmers
must supply their own seed corn. In
view Of the fact that the govern
rncnt is urging MS to replace wheat
bread largely with corn bread tho
importance of the farmers husband
ing their seed corn cannot be over
estimated.
THE cotton seed condition is in the
same shape. Southern cotton seed has
been damaged nv The weevl and there
IS no surplus in that section to sup
ply oklahoma farmers.
The farmers are urged to make
their farms supply their wants along
feed to ship into the state and traffic
is very much pressed under present
conditions.

raised the pig club idea to high
rlane of patriotic and economic en-
deavor. IEVers community Is urged to
cooperate with the A. & NJ. college in
its efforts to stimulate the pig club
