The usefulness of cow-peas and soy-beans as human food has been recognized only recently in this country.

The ease with which barley may be substituted directly for wheat in human food and its usefulness to replace wheat milling by-products as feed in the production of the milk supply render its abundant production important.

The value of the beans for oil production, as well as for human food, has become recognized so quickly and so generally during the past year that the crop has acquired a commercial standing far in excess of its previous status.

In the southern half of the country perhaps no crop has larger possibilities for quick increase of production of food for both men and animals than the sweet potato.

Rice at present prices provides more food for the money than most of the other cereals.

The duty of the individual farmer, at this time, is to increase his production, particularly of food crops.
