suggest the necessity for diversidcation Of
crops. There are many sections Of our coun-
y located convenient to river and rail trans
portation, where trucking would pay mugh
more remunerative prices than are nov got
ten for tobacco, which has been chiefly relied
upon by our farmers as their money crop. =
Tobacco growing, even though good prices
could be secured, is one that is attended with
great amount Of cost, ana from the time
that the seed are sowu until placed on the
market requires greater amount Of care and
attention than any product Of orr farms AIT
the available each, 10 many Instances, which
our farmers have ON hand, must he used to

funds the farmer has 10 wait from twelve to

the proceeds arising from the sale Of the en-
tire crop is not sufficient to pay for the cost
ofcuiayation We think that an entire icJi-
ance upon one crop, as "a monied one, is 4
mistaken policy under the most favorable cir

of madness. We 10 not advise entire aban.
