SHALL We
GROW HEMP

A substantial acreage of hemp
should be planted in Wisconsin this
spring. All of this acreage should be
planted in those sections where hemp
mills are located, or where arrange
ments have been made for the es-
Establishment of such mills.
In some sections of the state re
ports have been circulated that hemp
will ruin the soil; that there will be
no market next year for the fiber;
that the plant will become a weed; that
the stubble will ruin mems shoes and
horses feet, and that it is unpatriotic
to grow hemp.
There is absolutely no basis for such
reports. Hemp removes comparative
ly little fertility from the soil; it re-
moves less than most other annual
crops; it leaves the soil in splendid
workable condition.
The market outlook is most encour-
aging. There is every promise of
strong market next year. The chance
with hemp is no greater than with
other crops upon which no guarantee
price has been made by the Govern
ment
Hemp has never been known to
cause trouble of any consequence as
weed. 1t has been grown in Wiscon-
sin for nine years and not one report
of its becoming weed has been re-
ceived. That it is dangerous as a
weed is purely an imaginary idea.
There is absolutely no basis for such
notion.
Hemp stubble has never been known
to cause trouble of any kind, anywhere
1t has never been known to injure
horses feet, and there is no difficulty
in working the stubble or blowing it
under.
The report being circulated that
the National Government objects to
the growing of hemp because it is not
a food crop and that it is not needed
to assist in conducting the war is alb
solutely contrary to facts. 1t is just
as patriotic to grow hemp this year as
it is to grow any other crop. The
Food Administration is encouraging
hemp production; is doing everything
it can to assist the hemp industry.
Hemp fiber is a war time necessity.
The fiber supply of the world is very
short. Linen is practically unobtain-
able. Fibers from which binder Irvine
is made are very expensive and diff
cult to obtain. Hemp fiber is being
| used to manufacture thread for army
shoes, harness and other military
necessities. 1t is also being used in
manufacturing binder Irvine. The
country needs hemp, and it is particu-
larly important to grow the crop in
those sections where the soil and eli
