Recognizing that our country is
in dire need of increased production
Of certain farm commodities in pre-
pairing our d fense against
forces of aggression, Governor
Fielding l.. Wright, Monday, March
26, 1851, proclaimed the month of
April 1851, as Mississippi Farm
Mobilization Month.
Governor Wright, along with the
State Agricultural Mobilization
Committee, calls upon all farmers
and others interested to plan their
farm production program in line
with essential needs, sound farm
Management, and efficient cultural
practices, and urges all farmers to
use the best of the ir farming skill
to help obtain the production need
ed by our nation to which Missis-
sippi farmers have in the past and
can this year contribute greatly.
Mississippi cotton farmers have
been asked to plant at least $780,
900 acres of cotton in 1851 as their
share of the national cotton pro-

duction need. This acreage will be
over 25 percent more than was
grown last year. Production from
the 2,750,000 acres is needed to
meet minimum estimated require
ments for cotton during the year
beginning August l, 1851, and
ending July 81, 1852.
However, if more than 2,750,000
acres are produced in 1851, or if
requirements are less than esti-
mated, the difference would serve
to help restore our reserves to a de-
silable level. In the interest Of ma
tiohal security it is better to be in
ah adequate or strong carry-over
position on August |, 1852, than
to be in a short supply position.
G. L. Neill, Chairman of the
State Agricultural Mobilization
Committee, urges every cotton
grower to plan his cotton produc-
tion program carefully SO that
maximum production can be OBJ
