TO THE FARMERS
OF TENNESSEE

We are at war. The situation de
mands our immediate consideration
In the quiet of your occupation you
may not have realized the important
part you are called upon to take. The
south must raise food crops for its
own people and for its livestock. Ten
lnessee farmers are going to produce
in addition a surplus for the soldiers,
the sailors and those compelled to
work in non-food producing activities.
The planting season and the spring
rush of farm work is upon US. Before
going further, however, make an esti-
mate of your families food needs and
those of your livestock. Plan to meet
these and liberal surplus by this sea-
sons planting. Until peace, world
peace, has been obtained, ideals in
crop rotation, soil fertility, and even
animal husbandry must be sacrificed
for necessary food supplies.
AS farmers, our patriotism is
challenged. We are called upon to
join now the food preparedness army
of the south. The patriotism of the
farmers of the cotton counties of West
is especially under test. Be-
fore a seed of cotton is planted, a live
at-home policy should be defined. The
spring and fall garden is going to be

fruits and vegetables for winter, food

stock, the meat hogs and the poultry,
and even a surplus of food products

The past will be absolutely no guide
Turing the war period, The essential
'ood crops will be the most profitable
money crops.
Corn, beans, potatoes, garden pro-
luce, fresh and canned, milk and its
poultry and eggs and food
or work stock are now and will be the
essential food crops during the war.
Provide these first. The late summer
md fall grain crops as well should be
planned now.
Let us not delay making food plans

LARGER FARM
CAPITAL NEEDED

The capital available is becoming
Increasingly important in farm
ing. The higher land values, and the
greater investments now required in
machinery and live stock, make it nee
essary that the modern farmer have
command of considerable capital, if
he is to be successful.
Studies of profits made by the farm
ers in one county show that the aver
age farmer with less than $4,000
capital has not made as much money
as hired man receives. Those with
a capital of $4,000 or more are MAX
ing very good profits. This relation
of amount of capital to profits made is
we'll shown in the following table:

Father P. Leronge, Vicar Apostolic
of French Guinea, writes from Mongo,
Africa, to the Directress General of the
Sodality of st. Peter Claver: ITO fill
up the gaps caused by mobilization,
I am continually on the road. Here
am, almost 622 miles in the interior,
visiting two missions, beneficiaries of
your generosity. God seems to have
blessed our efforts in this Kissiland:
Bourouadou, founded in 1903, has now
1000 baptized Catholics and 2,140
catechumes; and the Mongo Mission,
founded only five or six years ago, has
26O baptized Catholics and 1904 cate
chumens."
Rev. F. Biehler, S. j., from Empan-
deni, Rhodesia, writes to the Society of
ST. Peter Claver: "My mission con-
tinues to prosper, notwithstanding the
difficulties caused by the war. But
how hard it is to procure the bare
necessaries of life, and what we do
get is so dear. We do the best we
can, trusting in the mercy of God

The freedom of the K. of G. build
ing is special appeal to all men in
the camp, and they realize that every
thing they want is theirs. Jews and
members of every faith wander into
the hall every night and prejudice Of
every sort is forgotten. The K. of G..
halls have become melting pots where
in creed and race are moulded into
one big American army, with the cross
of Christ never forgotten, nor the
training of the Catholic home ever
lost.
