Brown; "First, they offer you pays ments for carrying out sou-building practices. That 'will help; you do things you felt you just couldn't af ford to do before." y 1 v Smith: "I aint had any money for nothing . v. for years, r know how it is." . "When prices go too high, we are tempted to plant all the cash' crops we can so we will make money while the makin' is good. : But this type of overcropping soon wears out the soil ' "And when we plant every avail able acre to cash crops, we are likely to produce too much. ' Then we have overproduction and prices fall again. Many' growers are forced to lose their farms." ' ' .''- , Smith: "I came near losing , mine several times. If s tough, ain't it 1 Brown: "And when prices are real low", we feel that we've got to plant cash crops on every possible acre in order to eke out a living. This, too, means oyer production and wearing out the land, unless something is dort? about it ' ' . ' - " i'' : ."Bat whea prices art kept at a fair level, we find it is easier to limit out acreage of cash crops. .t This leaves more land for soil-building crops- . And when we are making a decent living, we can afford to do things that will conserve the land for the future." - Religious Rights Stressed at Fair NEW YORk Sptcial)A tribute to the constitutional right of freedom' of worship will have a prominent part In the statuary to be placed upon the $80. 000,000 Central Mall of the New York World's Fair 1939, Grover A.
