qualified assertions in q booklet,

There are'no "ifS" or '"butS" eX-

them q sly hint. He publishes his

Recalling that Mississippi pro-
duces an insufficiency of feed
grains, the Commissioner never
theless feels that state farmers
would more nearly supply their
feed requirements from home
grown products, and save money
while so doing. if they would but
feed the principal by-product of
their principal crop, cottonseed
