After cotton what? That is a ques- ) Don which is presenting itself very j forcibly to the people of the State , >incc the adjournment of the legislature. and E. J. Watson, commissioner j jf agriculture, it has a special ap- ] peal. The legislature made no pro- , vision for the encouragement or the ( stimulating of varied agriculture, but ] merely said "Thou Shalt Not." . To thousands of farmers in South ( Carolina this injunction will mean nothing, for there are in this State . many men who are even now engaged in reducing the acreage of cotton, and they need no instruction in this matter, but the great bulk of farmers of South Carolina know nothing but cotton. To be sure there are a dozen crops that may be raised here with success, but the question is where to get the seed, when to plant, how to fertilize, and finally how to market. These are the things that just at this : time are appealing to Commissioner Watson, how to get this information , lie fore the people who need it. And the information must be given at ince, for with the passing of each lay the time for planting grain is irawing to a close. Commissioner Watson long has en leavored to get the people to diversify their crops, and there are many, many thoughtful men in the St'-'te .vho have done so, hut the man to be reached is the man with the small rop, and that is why the campaign to take the information to him will be;in today. Great Awakening Already. There is a great awakening in some parts of the State already. In the last few weeks Marlboro, Florence, Anderson and Barnwell are reported to have enlisted in the if rain campaign ind to have organized companies to mild grain elevators and to handle if rain and grain products. Lack of J mch facilities has been the great de.erring factor in the past. Many far- | ners would have raised more grain f they had had a steady market fori heir products. The elevator companies could not only handle the grain nit could manufacture cattle and lorse and hog feeds from the grains ind the peas and the other farm prolucts. Hundreds of thousands of lollars every year are sent out of the State for manufactured feeds that ould he turned out in the State and j n local grain elevators with little anital. The farmers might underake, this themselves on the cooperaive basis. The advantage of getting the grain rop in early is that after it is harvested next year, acrop of corn may >e produced upon the same land. Some farmers have produced, three \ rops within 12 or 14 months on one j liece of land. Cowpeas in the early all, followed by grain and then by i' ate Corn is a rotation thai buil?V.'^"y^'j at her than leaches the soil. There is a dual advantage in pro-1 ' lucing grain at home. In the first. I dace it saves the expense of buyine rom dealers, who make different and ipnificant kinds of profit; in the secnd place the prain that is indipen* ? us is better. Northern prain has ' t en found by the chemists to be in- . orior for use here to that produced in ' he South. * No Fear of Surplus. Commissioner Watson says that here need be no fear of the South iroducinp so much prain that the | narket would he plotted and the iriees shoved down, for the proporion of prain raised in the South to I he short ape in the whole crop of the I .orld would be neplipible. The Ar- | eiitine. Australian and other crop of I /heat have failed and of course Kuope is suffering?. Wheat is likely to vine $2 per bushel next year, and 11 yrains will command a high price, 1 though cotton will not. unless the induction is diminished almost to 'he anishing? point. There are numerous crops that may e planted later on that will hrii. a i eturn more remunerative than roton but Commissioner Watson advises hat every farmer in the State be<?in iyht now to prepare his land for rain. There is a plenty of seed jrruin, e says, and he will lie g?lad to a ;ist i yetting it. Soon it will be too late o plant yrain. The commissioner urther advises that the cotton area mit fixed l>v the legislature is inndeuate and he urg?es that the farmers i) ma connne mrmseivcs to me i< ms p f the act. but that they plant at least 4 no-half of their acreage now in mall grain and follow this next ear ;ith corn. In the trip over the State m> be lade by Commissioner Watson. I tine-tor Long and Agriculturist Smith, eginning today, all of the details ill he laid before the farmers, hut he particular advice for this time is o wait not a day, but to get to vork t once, preparing the land and pro11 ring the seed. A There is a great demand i the ^ Itate for information in reg.i I to hinting grain. The extent of ti ? deland is shown in the letters Commisioner Watson is receiving. Wade backhouse, M. D., of Dillon, piesient of the South Carolina divi ion of he Southern Cotton congress, writes: "I think that less than 10 per cent, f the land in South Carolina is plantd in grain. Very many of our tarmrs have no seed oats or wheat and hey are too poor to buy unle * the ? merchants and hankers extend credit, t will soon he too late to plant, . . am very much pleased that you and c Ir.
