benefit to the people and the State"
Elsewhere in his address DIR. Woods
paid high tribute to Maryland farmers
for their response to the call of the Govern
ment for more food during the war period
Maryland. he pointed out. had been asked
for 10 per cent increase in both wheat
acreage and hog productions. THE farm
ers responded" he said, by giving 10
per cent increase in wheat acreage and
IL per cent increase In hog production.
even under most trying circumstances.
These figures, however. represent some OF
the bright phases Of the status Of the in
dustry. There are other phases not so en-
couraging.
"Maryland's land area is 1862 .240 acres,
5,057 .140 acres Of which are in farms /;
but only 2.254,000 acres of the 5.000.-
900 odd acres in farm area are being
titled to crops. There are more than L.
100000 acres Of cleared land in this
State which are not being cultivated for
the want OF capital and labor and the
assurance Of profitable return under pres
ent conditions We do not want to de-
velop new land until this unused land in
our State is utilized to the best advantage.
DR.. Woods cited comparative statistics
concerning food production and remarked
that the only conclusion to be drawn from
them was that "our State is far from reach
ing point where she is able to sustain her
population in many food supplies. espe-
cially live stock, not to mention the de-
STABILITY for sufficient production for ex-
portation.
These are facts that should arouse the
business interests Of this city into a more
active interest in the problems Of feeding

FREEDoM's FRIENDS.

We have spoken through our guns:
They have shrieked our love Of right.
We have spoken through our sons
Who have gladly borne the fight
We have told the crushed and weak
That we serve no selfish creeds;
Now for justice let US speak
Through the glory Of our deeds
On the far-flung battle line
We have battled for the truth.
AS a pledge for all that's fine
We have sacrificed our youth.
We have fought as freedoms friend.
Now the laundering cannons cease,
And the warfare's at an end,
Let US be as brave in peace.
In the heat and pain Of strife,
And the tumult Of the test
We have guarded human life
And have rescued the oppressed,
And we boasted that we sought
Only freedom for the world:
Let us live as we have fought
Now the battle flags are furled.
We have written it in blood
That for justice we will die.
We have brayed the ccean's flood
Making truth our battle cry.
We have pledged ourselves to seek
Only joys which we may give;
Now for justice let US speak
And for justice let US live.
