What Can the Farmer DoP

In an address before the Farmers
National CoRgress, recently in session
at Fort Worth, Texas, President W..
d. Hoard said: ''What can the farmer
do, what must he do, to increase his
profit? For on that hangs his pros
perity. This must he do: He must
realize that he is no longer a crude
producer: he lis a manufacturer. he
must invoke science, invention, better
system. more thorough organization
among his fellow farmers, more eX-
haushive study of the underlying pf1n-
cipIes of his business, improved meth
DDS. everything he can lay hold of, to
contribute to a reduction OF the cost
of production.
she is subject to the same economic
laws as is every other manufacturer.
The world declares it will have cheap
food and clothing, for such is the hui
name order of our civiliZati IN. The
American farmer is i'm the forefront OF
a menciless competition, for from the
soil must come primarily all food and
clothing He must furnish as good as
the BEST or he will lose the market.
He must do this at living cost and
keen ND the fertility of the SOIL or he
and his farm will both perish by the
way. The demands of modern civil1za-
ton are expensive. 1t costs more to
live. educate his children and be
man among men than it did his father
fifty years ago. There is but ONE road
out of the difficulty as can see. He
must put more thought into this ques-
tion off the cost of production. mat
is his end of the proposition, the farm

California Grapefruit Not Wanted.

California Grapefruit Not Wanted.
I'm the columns of the Fruit Trade
Journal, of March 4, there was quite
a lengthy article under the above cap
ton, giving some of the reasons why
California grapefruit is not wanted IN
the New York market. 1t says:
SIT is simply because the California
grapefruit is decidedly inferior, the
bulk shipments coming to This market
not being salable at any reasonable
price. The fruit is light, thick of skin,
and sour in flavor and as several
handlers have expressed it, would
make a person sick to eat it, and re-
ceivers find it difficult to move. At the
auction sale this week whole Lines
were sold at IS cents to $1.O0 per box,
which was less than the freight charg-
es.I On the other hand, the Florida
grapefruit lis, during the season, the
best fruit sold, ON this market
The contrast in price between Flor
ida grapefruit and that grown in Cal
ifornia is most remarkable. Florida
grapefruit has sold this season in the
same market as high as $500 per
box, while the California fru!y, AT sea-
son of, the year when there is a great
scarcity, is going begging at GO cents
to $1.OO per box.
Grapefruit is among the most popu-
lar of all the citrus fruits. The sup
ply has never been equal to the de-
mand. The grapefruit tree is tender
and ais the growers in the original cor
ange belt'' have found, is easily killed
by frost.

by frost

One of the great political problems
confronting the farmers today is how
to restore to their soil ait the lowest
cost the fertility which it has lost.
This is a matter which cannot be done
in ONE season. A systematic and eco
nOmical plan must be adopted. It has
come to be generally recognized that
when we speak of a soil being eX
hausted, we mean that it's supply of
nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash
has been so reduced that it will not
produce full yield of any crop. Treat
ing the subject from this standpoint,
then bringing up the soil to its former
state of productiveness simply means
renewing the supply of nitrogen, phos-
phorc acid and potash. 1t is well to
add here, though, that humus or veg
etable matter must also be taken into
consideration, and if the plan suggest
ed further on in this article is adopted
it will enrich the soil in humus or veg
etable matter, as we'll as the three
ingredients of plant food referred TO.
Of the three elements referred to the
most expensive is nitrogen. If bought
on the market in the shape OF fertilizer

has scheme to introduces the date
plant in Texas.
The Secretary does not intend to
confine himself to experimenting in
fruits and flowers in the South, but
he has great hopes of improving the
fig product and substituting the hard
fer orange than is now grown in Flor
ida
vi am going among the Southern
planters myself" he said, "and study
with them the ground. I am practical
and they will KIND me so. want to
see the Southern farmer raise products
enough to live on so that he can wait
to sell his cotton. The Southern soil is
rich and adaptable to so many Things
that it is a pity to confine it to one or
two big staple products.
Altogether the Secretary is enthusl-
astic over his projects and beyond
doubt will be able to interest the
Southern people in such way, just as
HE has the Western, ais to be of practl-
cal use to them.

Secretary Wilson and New Industries
Secretary Wilson has started on his
second tour through the South. He has
just returned from a trip to the Caro-
linas, where he has been inspecting the
experiment of tea growing in this
country He expresses himself as
greatly satisfied with the results SO far
and expresses the belief that there is
a certain zone in the South where tea
cam be proftably cultivated and De-
come a big industry in the South. AL
ready one planter near Summerville
has fifty acres of black tea under Guilt
Walton, which has yielded so far $500
pounds and which he sold ait the aver
age price of ST per pound. The Secre-
tary believes that the Department OF
Agriculture is now in a position to be
of great benefit to the South, and he
intends to do all in his power to make
it so. He lis specially Interested in get
ting the planters of the South inter
ested in breaking up their crops and
PLAN ting i'm greater variety. Helelleves
that if the Southern farmer can be got
to diversity his crop that he will soon
be in a more prosperous condition than
farmers in any part of the country.
The Secretary's trip this time will
take in Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkan-
saS and Texas. He lis going to try to
induce the planters in the lower Caro-
lima and in Louisiana to try planting
new rice which he has imported from
Japan. He believes that by going into
the farming districts himself he can
induce the planters to experiment with
his new seed and that it will be
profitable and develop new industry.
He thinks the Bermuda or Easter lily
can be grown in Mississippi as pro-
lifically as in the Bermudas. He also
