A considerable number of farms
ers are reported as going or jdesir-
ing to go West, particularly to Tex
as. These farmers have overwork-
ed their lands in Georgia and other
States, and if they pursue the same
policy in Texas that they did in
Georgia, they will soon want to
move from Texas. The true policy
is not to wear out the good land in
Georgia and otherAstates but so man
age it as to keep it in good condi-
ton. With proper care the better
and cheaper plan is to so manage
the land so as to improve instead of
wearing it out. Farmers that are
good ones study the art of improv-
ing their fields and keeping them in
good condition. Use less land and
make few acres produce the pro-
ducts desirable. Instead of making
a bale of cotton on four or FIVE acres
learn to make on three or two or
one. That is the true policy and it
is cheaper than to break up and
move. We have heretofore shown
how this is done ana we will before
long present the policy again by
which this is accomplished.
