(By Q. H. ALFOllD.) We have between the average and the best in farming in the cotton belt an attainable t.OOO per cent. This difference of 1,000 per cent, against the average farmer is due wholly to con dttions which he can easily control with the necessary knowledge. Every corporation and business man interested in the welfare of the country should Join forces with the United States department of agriculture, agricultural colleges, experiment stations, state departments of agriculture and other forces and conduct great educational campaigns until the foolish and criminal waste that Is going on every year by reason of unscientific methods of farming is n thing of the past. Our farmers can grow easily twice the average yield of our staple crops. This Increase would pour many millions of dollars annually Into our Industrial channels. Such an addition could not be made without touching every corporation, every banker, every storekeeper, every doctor, every lawyer, every editor and, in fact, every person In the country. Many of the great industrial como rations of the country have alreudy joined forces with national and state Institutions and are helping the farmers to larger production and to larger life, and are thereby contributing to the prosperity and uplift of the whole people. Some people may attribute this to pure selfishness, but from out of that selfishness will evolve a better condition among the farmers, greater comforts in living, and more luxuries of life and better opportunities for the farmers to educate their sons and daughters?thus the presumed selfishness contains within it a resulting philanthropy. During the last ten years our acre yield increased, but not half as much as the increase of population. There 1 UTILIZE THE CORNSTALKS.

We have all hea\rd the ?ld Dutch proverb quoted before, but we cannot quote it too often: "No grass, no stock; no stock, no manure; no manure, no crop." Holland is almost entirely a grass and stock country, and lands are worth on an average of $r.0<> per ticre. These people have found that they can make more :?ut of land from grasses and livo stock than they can by cultivating it. Tnnuinbered acres of hill land in the cotton belt are making less than jne-third bale of cotton per acre, and ?t the same time making poverty for those tilling them. The cost of coin tnercial fertilizer applied annually is ippalling. The razor-back terraces, covered with weeds, grass and briars, ind the circled and short rows present the use of labor-saving implements. Millions of acres of poor hillside and now producing less than onehird bale of cotton per acre should tie plowed deep, well fertilized with icld phosphate and some nitrogen and some potash, when needed, and planted in summer and winter legumes for. ?ay, two years, and then sodded in Itermuda grass, lespedeza, crimson and jurr clovers. Only by this method ind stock raising can our wornout, tullled cotton lands be restored to fer:ility and only in this way can the people of our snuthtand become prosl?erous and contented. We have worn out our lands in the julckest possible time by growing cot- , ton and rigidly excluding grasses, | ;lovera and live stock \V?; have depleted the soil of vegetable matter ind it has washed away. This poor toll moans a poor people, and the poor people means bad roads, uncomfortiblo homes, poorly equipped farms, very little education, the credit sys ;em. and all tnat retards civilization. The last census shows that our popilatien increased 21 per cent, in the preceding decade, while our meat- prolucing animals decreased more than 10 per cent. Wo are facing a very jerlous situation. The meat producing *- > ... .v4f.vj Is * V animals must be grown on the farm. The farmers will not long continue to grow stock at a loss. The conditions must be such that stock raising is. profitable or the farmers will sooner or later go out of the business entlrolv The cotton belt has an overwhelm-.' Inn advantage over every other sec-' tion In live stock raising. We have great climatic advantages that per-, mit outdoor pasturing and feeding dur-1 lng the whole, or the greater part, of i j the year. We can obtain large yields I of oats, leguminous crops.

I 1 tho economic use of the silo and cottonseed meal will make our lands rich, keep millions of dollars at home that uro now sent to the north and west, and make our people prosperous. Tho calamity howler says: "What about the lack of lime in the soil?" Dr. Tail liutler, probably the best posted man on southern agriculture, says, in summing up a most excellent editorial on "Lime in Southern Feeds:" "Wo have shown: (1) That our soils are not deficient in lime as regards tho plant food requirements of our crops: ' (2) that plants grown In the south | have as much ash as the same plants : grown elsewhere, and that tho feed crops of the south, especially the legumes peculiar to the south, contain as high a per cent, of ash as the feed crops of other sections; (3) that , typical southern rations are those made up of typical southern feeds and contain more ash than typical northern feeds. The conclusion is, therefore, that while our animals fail to get the mineral matter they need, it is not because this material is deficient in our feeds, but because our animals do not get sufficient of our feeds." In the cotton belt, live stock farming has been avoided mainly for two reasons: (1) Because all-cotton farming paid better until the soil became ! poor; (2) because of the cattle tick. Now, millions of acres are too poor to grow cotton profitably, and we can easily eradicate the cattle tick. Since the work of eradicating the tick was inaugurated, nearly 200.000 square miles have been cleaned for all time; this is an area over three times as , large as Alabama. The tick injures | tho hide, reduces tho milk flow at least ten per cent., makes it very difficult to fatten cattle, prevents the introduction of good cattle to breed up our native cattle, lowers the price of our cattle on the markets and destroys more than enough cattle every year to pay for its eradication. Tho invasion of the boll weevil and the consequent reduction of the profits of cotton growing is forcing many farmers to grow crops which must of necessity bo marketed through tho agency of live stock, and it is the function of live stock on the farm to furnish a market for tho crops that are grown, enabling the farmers to con- j vert grasses, forage crops, cow peas and soy beans, and so on, into higher i priced finished products and to return to the soil the plant food taken from HOW PLANT FOOD CAN BE RETURNED TO SOIL 1?By Barnyard Manure. 2?By Growing and Feeding Clover, Alfalfa, Etc. 3?By Plowing Under Green Crops. 4?By Plowing Under Cornstalks, Stubble, Straw, Etc. , 5?By Applying Commercial Fertilizers. , it. The greatest need of the farmers of the cotton bolt at present is more grass and more live stock, and those who assist in eradicating the cattle tick and in otherwise helping to create conditions tiiat will enable farmers to grow two good animals In the nlneo nf unn ocrnh In .o-nl" ~ - r?. wmw MV?
