RADFORD REAPPOINTED
Fort Worth, Texas. President Chas.
S. Barrett of the Farmer' Educational
and Co-operative Union of America
has announced the reappointment of
Peter Radford as lecturer of the Na
tional Union during the coming year.
Extensive plans have been outlined
for publicity work throughout the na
tion to be carried on through Mr. Rad
ford's department. This publicity
work will be modeled on the lines of
he educational work done In Texas
on the subject of farm problems.
It is an admitted economic fact that
there can be no permanent prosperity
without a permanent agriculture.
An up-to-date farmer must have an
accurate knowledge of today and a
clear vision of tomorrow.
In this age of advancement In agri
cultural eclfnce there Is no excuse for
soil depiction to further menace the
nation's prosperity.
Soli Is not a dead. Inert substance,
as many suppose It is an active, virile
force, full of energy and power and
the farmer shruld know bis soil If be
would maintain Its productiveness.
Agriculture Is recognized as the
greatest of all Industries and a pros
perous, progressive and enlightened
agricultural population is the surest
safeguard of civlllzc'on.
