If you care for heavy hair that glis-

STANDARD CROP
BEST PRODUCER
SAYS FARM MAN
Agent to Work Out Program;
Standardization Is Money
Getter for Farmer.

ut is my purpose to study out,
formulate and offer to the farmers
Of Grady county a definite farming
program, through the operations of
which we will be able to increase
our farm production and at the same
time standardize our crops was
the statement made this morning by
J. W. Owens, Grady county farm
demonstrators
standardization is the most inn
portant phase of agriculture 1t is
the only method by which group
OF farmers can create the maximum
demands for their products. BY it
we get uniformity and quality, which
is in very great demand by the large
buyers Of farm products throughout
the world he continued as he
pointed out the following appeal
from d. r. Houston, secretary Of
the United States department of
agriculture:
Two things seem to be clear rel
atiye to the agriculture situation in
the United States
"One is that for a considerable pc
riod the world vii lhave need par
ticularly of larger supply than nor
NAL Of live Stock, and especially of
fats. We should not fail, therefore,
to adopt every feasible means of
economically Increasing our live
stock products. AS a part of our
program we should give due thought
to the securing of an adequate sup
ply Of feed stuffs and to the eradica-
ton and control Of, al. forms Of ami
NAL disease.
The other is the need Of perfect
ing the organization Of our agricul.
tural agencies for the purpose of in
telligently executing such pro
gram as may seem wise We should
not only have the best possible or
ganization and cooperation Of the
department of agriculture, the agri-
cultural colleges, the state depart
ments Of agriculture and farmers
associations, but we should especial
ly strengthen the local farm bureaus
and other organizations which sup
port so effectively the extension
forces and assist them in their ac-
tiyities The perfecting Of this or
ganization is highly desirable not
only during the continuance of the
present abnormal conditions but also
for the future,
The local as we'll as the state
and federal agencies are Of supreme
Importance to the nation in all
its activities designed to make rural
life more profitable healttful nd
attractive, and therefore, to secure
adequate economic production, eff
cient distribution and necessary CON
servation.
"The main purpose of this appeal
is to direct attention to the nee
essity of continuing the founda-
tions of our agriculture"
