MERCHANTS WILL
Be ASKED TO BUY
FLORIDA POTATOES
Explanation Of Present Conditions
Shows That Small Demand And
Low Prices Could Net Be
Avoided.

The new potato campaign In Flor
Ida is not going to be limited to 4
mere week of using potatoes.
The Federal Food Administrator
Braxton Beacham, has issued bullet
In to each of his County Food AID
minlstrators telling them to carry
ON a campaign of Buy Florida Pota
toes This campaign not only in
Guides the consumers, but touches
the wholesaler and jobber and retail
er and peddIer, all Of whom are *.
pected to cooperate to the fullest
extent In making a home market for
home grown potatoes. The situation
In Florida is just this: Last year a
tremendous crop of potatoes was
planted, estimated at nineteen thou.
sand acres This year the estimates
showed thirty-two thousand acres in
potatoes. The increase in the Flor
ida acreage was no doubt due to q
great extent to the agitation for great
er crops and the planters responded
notably to the appeal. Nevertheless
much of the increase undoubtedly
came about through the exceptionally
high prices obtained for potatoes
last year. Twelve thousand acres in
the famous Hastings district were
| reported as having brought Four Mil
lion Dollars Quite naturally such re.
ports tended to draw many planters
to the potato lands There has always
been speculative feature attached
to farming enterprises, and no mat
Ter how great the patriotic effort Of
the planters may have been. there
must have been some speculative an.
/ ticipation in their work.
/ It is not fair to blame the govern
ment for this greatly increased acre
age OF potatoes, and the unfortunate
drop in prices. 1t is true that great.
er crops were urged and it is nota.
bly, true that the urgent request OF
the government was obeyed in nearly
every state in the Union. In the north.
west or in other sections where no
tatoes are grown, the farmers plant
ed and harvested tremendous crops

/ Mr. Beacham has pointed out tia.
we should create markets at hon I
for what we raise, and this is Io;-a
cal conclusion. and all efforts alosss
that line will not only assist In re
lievirg transportation. which is i,
greatly needed for war industries
but it will teach the people Of Flor
ida, II pracficed, that they need moi
go outside their own state to find
markets for their staple crops.

The Pass Word War

I'VE have got to reach the place
each one Of US, where we define
every decision in our lives as an
act Of war policy.
Everything that we do, plan,
eat, wear, must be analysed and
measured from one single point Of
view-will 1t contribute to the car
rying on Of the war, or will it CON
tribute to its prolongation?
There 10 no other thing in the
world for US but to define every
thing in our lives as acts OF mill
tary necessity or policy"
Pr. Alonzo Taylor.
