CALLING OUT THE RESERVES
We are at war—seriously at war—
and it promises to be a long, hard-
fought war that will put a serious
tax on the great resources of this
country.
Our generation is
just beginning to
find it out, but the
nations that op-
pose us have for a
good many years
time economy and
a wartime economy
known that a peace
Vyea are two widely dif-
ferent things.
The aggressor nations began many
years ago to aim at a new goal—
total war—and to prepare for it
gradually. They have built up tre-
mendous war production machines,
while we have gone on with our
comfortable and somewhat compla-
cent, easy-going manner. Our prac-
tice for war has been confined large-
ly to local political and labor squab-
bles that in the long run are not
very important. The Axis powers
have practiced playing “for keeps.”
We’ve got to adopt a “for keeps”
attitude, and do it almost overnight,
to make up for the time we have
spent trying to be a good neighbor
in a world of thugs and pirates.
In our new world of serious all-
out war, agriculture has been giv-
en a part to play of basic and funda-
mental importance. We have to pro-
duce more food and more fibers than
ever before, with fewer men and
fewer machines to work with.
Strong young farmers not only
make the best soldiers and sailors,
but they make the best hands for
munition factories. So our Govern-
ment is calling for them by the
hundred thousand, in spile of the
fact that we need them on the farms
as never before.
How long are we going to get our
farm work done, with our boys in
service and the metal we hoped to
get for plows being used for guns
and tanks and ships and planes?
Recently there was printed iii
many papers a picture of «ix or eight
tractors working at one time, on a
smallish farm. The service of these
tractors and the men who drove
them represented a neighborly form
of co-operative help for a farmer
who was unable to do his own work.
His friends got together and volun-
teered to do it for him.
Perhaps that isn’t anything new
on the farms of this country. We
have always had barn raisings and
husking bees. But we are now likely
to see a great many more examples
of such co-operative efforts.
Why wouldn’t it be worth-while
though for the farm owners of
every community to meet together
and plan for such situations? We all
know that a shortage of farm labor
j is already here. And we all know
that new tractors and new farm im-
j plements are going to be limited in
! number and mighty hard to get.
I On very few farms does the trac-
tor work six days a week. And there
are. a good many hundreds of thou-
sands of implements that are used
only a few days a year.
These tools represent a, part of
the productive capacity of our ag-
ricultural plant. Let’s make them
work more hours—make them pro-
duce more.
If you have a machine that your

Continued dry weather has made
it possible for the farmers over the
cojnty to get their land prepared
fer the 1942 crops. Most of them
have their corn planted. Gardens arc
well on their way. but if rain is de-
layed much longer vegetables will
begin to suffer for want of moisture.
Fridcy, March 27, the Junior
Livestock Show for 4-H Clubs and
F. F. A. boys will be held at Cor-
sicana. Freestone County 4-H boys
plan to have judging teams in the
beef cattle, dairy cattle, and hog
judging division. George Webb, Fair-
field, and Roger Dale Anderson,

the show. Billy Gordon, Edward

Fairfield, Charles Moore and Ed H.

I am receiving many calls from
farmers for orchard disease control
work and culling of hens. It is next
to impossible to answer many indivi-
dual calls. It will be greatly appre-
ciated if farm men and women in a
community would arrange for this
work by groups. It is time now to
treat orchards for many diseases
and insects, and will soon be too
late. Hens should be culled for non-
and litter. Mannish George, Clay
Hill, community, will enter a gilt.
Other 4-H boys would enter their j
animals if transportation for them |
was available. A free barbecue lunch
will be served for the boys who en-
ter their animals or serve on the
judging teams, also for the boys’
fathers.

trade him the use of that machine
for the use cf one of his—perhaps
the very machaine you expected to
buy this year, to complete your own
mechanical equipment.
It’s a chance to put into effect a
broader “good neighbor” policy at
home—an opportunity to accom-
plish more by working together.
We read that our country can no
longer be isolated by oceans—we are
now too closely a part of the whole
world. In the same way, each farm
must give up some of its isolation —
its independence. It becomes, more
than ever before, a part of Agricul
ture.
