Farmers urged to save seed for next year crops
Dr. C W Warburton chairman of the Fed er drought relief committee stresses seed preservation in drought zones advising farmers to save seed even at the cost of feeding elsewhere. He notes crop standardization has produced adaptable varieties. Employment plans by states, firms, and railroads extend aid through road and lumber projects, with farm laborers shifting to city life cautioned as less favorable. Nutritional relief includes cost feed sales, canning drives, and winter food support by parishes.
