Before the Opening Of the
Spring Work.

On nearly every Louisiana farm
there 10 some land that is either not
used at all or is used In such a way
a. to produce very little. On MANY
farms there are patches of low ground
which cannot be titled because they
are too wet. Usually when drained
these wet areas are the richest on
the farm
Just at present, when the cry of the
world is for food and more food. the
product Of these idle acres is needed.
This is an excellent time 10 put them
into use. Small patches of wet land
can often be draired at little ex.
pense. Between now and the open-
ing up of spring work there will be
ample time to do the work. Every
farmer. part Of whose farm is unoro-
ductve because II needs drainage.
should take advantage Of the pres
ent opportunity to add to his cropping
area by supplying the necessary drain
age. These lands will produce more
than average farm lands. Every prod.
uct will help feed the hungry.-L :.
