war is the logical result of historic

How To Make Farming Profitable.
Home and Farm. A 1
First of all, we should prepare ^
all of our land well. We should % *
then use the best seeds of all f j
kinds that can be obtained, as ^ jjjl
highly improved seed makes from 7*
one-third to one-half more than
ordinary seed. Here in middle
Georgia I don't think it pays to
raise wheat. But we can raise \i
corn, meat, potatoes, syrup and .9*
vegetables. Also fruits of nearly
all kinds grow in abundance, with
very little work. Now as to cotton,
we can raise much of it at
cents per pound. We can raise
some cotton at 5 cents if we will "tff
raise everything we can that we + ^
need. ' *
1 will give my plan for raising
5 cent cotton. In 1895 ! had
one acre in cotton, with rows four
foot wide. I put all the manure
from two mules and four cows on
! the one acre, planted it April I
I. ..it ?i.rlit timnu <1,,. A'
.1*1 . j'twu < m II n^ui IIIIICO) IIICT JT" 4
l i t plowing being on June 20. 1
:ili tin' last cultivation. I cul- ,,jV
tivate shallow as possible all fk
t!i.> lime. That one acre n.a<lo
( ".,Il'S , annuls seed cotton, la
1 s'.m; i had lour acres that made
I jour good bales with the same
1 of treatment, li we can
, a ,.ke 1 ..">00 |>( amis per acre there ^
will be a little profit in it at > >
rents. hut if we don't ! over
1.0th) pounds si .! cotton per
acre, we lose money on every
pound we se|l at < nts.
i livery farmer should have
plenty of rood pa-'ins . and there
is nothing that will p. y as weli
as Honolulu grass, for it stands #-y
I more rlrv wepther that! anvlhinr
(and will keep cattle fat eight
'months in a year. One acre ot ^
' good land in Bermuda grass will
l keen four head, of plow stock fat
from April 1 until December 1
1 without a feed of corn while not
j at work. 1 don't believe there - W
can be too much said and done for
the Bermuda irrass. Neither do
i believe too much can be said in
praise of the pea vine.. Th pea
vine will enrich land faster than \A
I anything. ?
They also make tile best of feed
for e dtle and mule when cut and
eurod. 'hey make more hay
than anything else I have ever
tried on 1 lie Lime land.
Wlr-ii ' w! through with cot
'ion planters, utiano distributors,
doubl ' etc., I loosen every
tap ami > ii Ilit* threads t?? keep
' .i'itin ruining I hem. Then
- mi,:!" oeks the same way. Kvery t
plow. hoe, from J wo inch scooter* f
i<? twenty-four -inch scraper, is
-liarponed unci put in its place
until needed again. A fresh
sharpened plow will never rust if
kept dry, mul is always ready for
; uso.
hut not least, we should
never go to town except when
obliged to. Then we should al I
ways fry to carry something to '
I sell that I own people do not have
?chickens, eggs, butter, beef,
cattle, .-hoats or something that
will bring money to buy what we
an obliged to have.
