The CASTOR BEAN

The castor bean question seems
hard to settle in Louisiana
Farmers were asked by the con.
tractors of the War Department
to grow them, and many under.
took to do 80. Then they were
advised by state officials not TO do
80. Then county agents. acting
on Official instructions, went out to
help the contractors get the re.
Qnired acreage. Just as things
began to move smoothly, the IN
structions to these agents were
withdrawn, and they were told to
JON the "neutrals". They might
assist any one who insisted on
growing them, but must not urge
him TO do so.

The capon does not grow much

There is a considerable varia.
