POTATOES VS.. COTTON
Caldwell News-ChronicIe.


A farmer told US this week
that he raised ffty-six bushels
of sweet patatoes on one-fourth
of an acre last year. This
yield which is by no means
above the average, would give
224 bushels to the acre, yet he
will probably plant his land in
cotton this year. Suppose he
had to sell his potatoes at 20
cents per busI1el, which is not
at all likely, would he not clear
far more than he could on cot
ton? Fry ten or twenty acres
this year and see how you
come out.
