In nearly all the walks of life it is much
easier to point out the cause than it is to
show or apply the true remedy.
The condition of much of the soil in Mid
die Florida, now going through sort of a
quasi-cultivation, can be easily Traced
and the remedy easily shown-that remedy
is fertilization.
The soil is impoverished there is no mis-
take aboutthis statement. No one will rise
up and say our position is not correct.
The only-murk the word only, is a re-
stored fertility and when will the day come
when the restoring process will commence?
Not until different farming is done by
many farmers.
The average tenant will never do it. He
will sell his manure and cotton seed the
hrst opportunity and continue to impover-
ish the soil he lives on year after year.
To farm successfully rich land is certain
~ thing much to be desired, but we can
not all have whole farms of this character
but there are parts of every farm that are
rich. Cultivate that part and by artificial
means restore the fertility on the balance,
and there is no better or surer way than
with COW peas.

In the Garden of Eden throve plant
whose life and virtue Adam knew. He
was the first botanist in spite of all history
to the contrary. He was also the first

morning with case of incipient grip, had
penchant yearning for quiet smoke, and
inquired Of Eve for few leaves of the
herb that grew In the southern end OF the
garden. 1t was garden crop. Now Eve,
for Adams welfare, conceived the thought
that the herb was lily suited as panacea

Over 5000 900 bushels of peanuts W

Over 100000 bushels of peanuts were
raised in the United States last year. Did
our farmers raise their share of them? If
not, why not? This soil was given to you
tor this and other purposes and you are do
ing wrong when you do not make proper
use Oft. We cannot recall the day when
peanuts did not command a good price.
This year the demand will be greater. Will
you put in greater breadth than ever be-
fore? We parch pan full three times
each week and know that those we raised
ourselves taste better than the bought
ones. The vines make good forage, then il
ought to do you good to see the razor backs
root for those you did not gather and cal
the grubs as they go along.

In all of our large cities vegetate gangs
of so-called business men who are known
as grain short sellers, who were never
known to do legitimate business. They
claim that their business is grain dealing,
when the fact is they have no grain; never
did have, yet 1t is said that they handle
millions OF bushels and bags of wheat, corn
cotton and oats each year. In congress a
bill has been introduced 10 eliminate these
blood-suckers and forever put a stop tc
grain gambling. The farmer can never
sell the products of his farm on it's merits,
80 long as these chaps are allowed to ply
their illegitimate business.
