1t is gratifying fact that last
year despite the labor shortage, higl,
wages, inconyenient transportation,
and other drawbacks the farmers of
the State as whole far exceeded
their production of any previous
year. This fine showing was made
possible largely by the fact that in
practically every county the farm.
ers had for years been organized into
farm bureaus by means of which or
ganizations plans could quickly be
made to meet effectively any great
emergency arising such as shortage
of food. West Virginia was thus en-.
abled to do her part by the nation.
It now becomes her duty through
existing organizations to meet and
solve in her thorough and charac.
teristic manner the problems OF food
production and any others arising
in the reimbursement period into
which she is now just entering.
