object of the conference wfU be to

States of the southeast. At
the same time, the cotton states

be requested to hold A similar conference

The Importance of raising. suAdent*
foodstuffs so that the south*

next year wll be earnestly Impressed ]
upon the meeting. Since the coming
of the European war. the entire J
JouCh la getting en object lesson on
the foolishness of depending too
much on any one crop, no matter
bow strong a crop that may he. It
Ls necessary that every county shall
grow at least enough to (sad Itself

how long this war may last. Earl
Kltohener, the British minister pi j
hir, who 'is probably the most rsUsble
source of Information, states
that it will extend over a period or
sigh teen months. That will mean
two crops for us. It ls Imperative
that the South shall be absolutely ^
Independent of outside sources of
supply for next year. Then, no matter
what price cotton may bring, ws
shall be immune from the effects of
high prices for food stuffs Jp other
parts of the.world. The 8outh can
do It. Before the Civil War It was
practically an nnknown thing for a
Southerner to buy any meats, grain !
