There is q movement on foot

Allies and our troops in the field.
In addition to this being q wise

winning the war.
The only serious problem in
the way Of the plan is to get the
farmers and land owners thro-
out the state to cooperate and
agree to plant a certain per cent
Of their cultivatable lands in
