Agricultural Reform Urged By Letter From Shreveport
A letter to the Shreveport Times urges farmers to shift from cotton dominance to diverse crops. It argues reducing cotton from 4,000,000 to 2,000,000 bales would raise prices to 20 to 25 cents per pound and free 4,000,000 acres for oats wheat rice barley and potatoes. The writer claims southern farming would aid merchants and stabilize prices amid inflation.
