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

Barley, where it succeeds, yields a larger weight of feed per acre than any other small grain crop.

One could drive a prairie schooner through any part of his argument and never scrape against a fact.

It is obvious that the greatest and most important service that is required of our agriculture under existing conditions is an enlarged production of the staple food crops.

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

Buckwheat may be planted later than any similar crop, and often does well on old meadows or waste land that can be broken after the more exacting crops are planted.

The older, thinner, and less productive grass lands, however, frequently can be made to produce much larger yields of feed in corn than if left, as they are, in unproductive grass.

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.

What this loss means will be appreciated from the statement that one bushel of wheat contains sufficient energy to support the average working man for 15 days.

The high food value of field beans and the shortage of supply due to the light yields of 1915 and 1916 render them of great importance in the regions to which they are adapted.

The soy-bean, in particular, has proved sufficiently resistant to cold in spring and to adverse weather during summer to warrant heavy planting, especially throughout the South.

Dragon kind was no less cruel than mankind. The Dragon, at least, acted from besti*l need rather than besti*l greed.”~ A thought by Lessa ~

The best cure for the body is a quiet mind.

This Forest eats itself and lives forever.

Not many sounds in life, and I include all urban and all rural sounds, exceed in interest a knock at the door.

Let children feed on the good, the excellent, the great! Don't get in their way with little lectures, facts, and guided tours!

In what will survive me I am in harmony with my annihilation.

It's just that some things more important for this and less important for that, and this is true regardless the style of the art.

The worst advice in golf is, 'Keep your head down.'

I agree that comedy does a good job - and is often about - stepping over the line - Lenny Bruce, etc. - and that this is important for a lot of poets too. I guess I feel like there has to be depth.

We need a metaphor that can contain the daemon of the future that we have conjured into being.
