HOUSTON SAYS
NEEDS ARE GREAT
Better Organization of Ag-
ricultural Forces De-
i clared Essential

washington, Nov. 13-Secretary
Houston in a statement yesterday
urged that steps be taken to secure
better organization OF the agrioul-
Iural forces OF the country. especial
ay OF the local farm bureaus, In pre-
paFation for the execution of the
Necessary production program for
1919.
During the war;" SAID Mr.. Hous-
Ton, "the farmers of the nation have
responded magnificently to the ap-
peals for increased production and
ell the people have complied with
the urgent requests for fuller con-
servation. During this present fall
season, our farmers nave planted an
acreage in rye. 1t is too early now
Increased wheat acreage and a large
10 make detailed suggestions for the
gpring planting season.
s. 1.-TWO things, however, seem to be
clear:
n "one is that for considerable
period the world will have need par
ficularly OF a larger supply than
formal Of livestock and especially
of beef and fats. We should not fail,
therefore. to adopt every feasible
bmeans of economically increasing our
/ livestock products. AS q part Of our
program, we should give due thought
! 70 the securing Of an adequate sup
ply of feedstuffs and to the eradi-
cation and contro lof all forms OF
animal diseases.
1.-THE other is the need OF perfect
ing the organization of our agricul-
fural agencies for the purpose Of in
fsIligently executing such a program
may seem wise. We should not only
have the best possible organization
and cooperation Of the department
of agriculture, the agricultural col
Teges, the state departments Of agri-
aulture, and farmers associations.
BUT we should especially strengthen
the local farm bureaus and other or
CARNATIONS which support so effec-
lively the extension forces and as
sist them in their activities. The To-
Cal as we'll as the state and federal
agences are of supreme Importance
to the nation in all its activities de-
Signed to make rural life more prof
table, healthful and attractive, and,
therefore, to secure adequate econ
omic protection, efficient distribution,
and necessary conservation"
