It mar)C9 what I believe to be the most important development in Southern agriculture since the invention of the cotton gin led to the growing of cotton on a large scale. "You and your associates In th's movement for raising the standard of 3outhern corn and Increasing the yield per acre are entitled to the gratitude of every man interested in Southern progress. I congratulate you most sincerely. "Realizing that cotton is the greatpgc asset of the South and that the world will call upon us for increasing supplies. I am Intensely interested in the work which you and Mr. Williams, aided by intelligent growers, like Mr. Keenan and Mr. Coker, aro doing to develop prolific and early-maturing varieties of long-Btaple cotton. I believe that we should not let anything interfere with the maintenance of our cotton production, and that we should seek, through seed selection and the building up of our soli fertility by scientific crop rotation. live stock growing, and the intellgent use of commercial fertilizers, to increase our cotton production by Increasing the yield per acre, thus leaving room for corn and the other crops which should ho Included In a scheme of diversified farming. I am confident that your success in this direction will be as marked na tt >>.-? been In the corn movement.
