Future Farmers
Study Fertilizers
According to Cecil Kirkley, president
of the Mt. Pisgnh Future Farmers
chapter of America, three projects
will be carried on by the students
of vocational agriculture to
demonstrate the economy of nitrogen
side-dressing. These projects have
been arranged through the coperation
of the Chilean 'Nitrate LducationaT
Bureau of New ^ ork, an organization
which for many years has
been active in promoting more economical
fertilizer practices throughout
the South.
Since many people in this section
will be inti re-ted in the progress and
re-ult- of these demonstrations, the

Options' Replace I
Reduced Cotton!
.?
t'lemson College, June* 24.?Those
} rowers w ho cooperate to remove u
{ part of their cotton from production
this sea an may be assured that they
wilt have as much cotton to sell this
full as if no part of their present
crpp had been removed from cultivation.
Fears have been expressed by
some growers that should they reduce
their acreage, other growers might
not do so and would benefit to a
greater degree under the operations
of the act.
"It will not work this way in actual
practice," says C. A. Cobb, cotton
production administrator under ttye
Act. lie explains this by pointing out
that, for instance, (f a grower reduce*
his production this year by say ten
bales .this grower \yill bo paid a fair
price for the land so removed from
the cultivation of cotton. In addition,
he will be given an option on ten
bales of Government cotton at a price
I of six cents a pound. This option
| costs him nothing1 and if the price
goes down, the farmer has no obligation
in the matter but if it goes up,
he receives the benefit of the increased
price.
In this way, the cooperating far
mer will have just as much cotton to
! sell this full as he would have had
normally, and is saved the expense of
cultivating, harvesting, ginning and
marketing the part removed from
cultivation. He will also receive an
immediate cash rental payment on
the land removed from cotton production
and ill have the crop produced
on his remaining acreage to sell on
the open market.
This then absolutely protects the
cooperating grower from any loss,
guarantees to him a normal amount
of cotton to sell this fall, and allows
him to havo a part in reducing the
surplus which is tho cause of so much !
distress on cotton farms at the pros
ent time. 3uch u proposition, belives
Mr. (\>bb, should be attractive to any
grower especially since it pu*y be the
means of restoring the buying power
of the entire Cotton Belt.
A hospital at Kvunaton, Ind., has
changed from its old methods of
! charging for service there to a Hat
rate basis. The patient knows in advance
just what his stay for all services,
room, board, nursing, operation,
etc., is going to cost.
