He praises wartime farm policy conferences led by President Roosevelt, urging continued input from practical farmers to fix prices and production without overhauling the system.

A Bristol Harbor Visit with Captain Charlie's Ship
The narrator recalls a dawn plan to visit Captain Charlie Herreshoff's ship with Ma Holmes and friends. They ride a grand boat across Bristol harbor, meet a jolly crew in blue sailor suits, and climb to the ship's deck where Captain Charlie appears in white linen. The day contrasts Bristol with Ellardsville, and the narrator resolves Bristol as a future home.
