Adyanta ases of Intensive Farming.

By the judicious use of fertilizers, the
method of farming that is known as in
tensive farming can be made extremely
profitable Let us see whether or not
this is so. Take, for instance, the great
staple crop of the Southern States: cotton.
Labor is scarce in the South, and getting
more and more so every day, and is COM
manding better wages than for some
years past, owing to the demand for
white labor in the cotton mills and color
ed labor in turpentine fields, railroad,
mining, and other kindred operations.
Wars abroad have made horses and mules
higher than they were few years back;
add the further fact that feed is bound to
be higher in 1901 than for several years
we arrive at the conclusion that it will
cost more to run plow this year than it
did in former years, with the probabil-
ity that the cost will grow each year. 1t
will cost more money, therefore, to till
an acre of land. 1t is a matter of COM
mon knowledge that it takes less labor to
cultivate an acre of land making 4 bale
OF cotton than it does to cultivate an acre
making half bale, for in the first case
the crop soon gets up so that it can be
worked largely with plow, and shades
the land SO that the grass does not grow
rapidly. By a slight increase in the
quantity of fertilizer per acre it is an
easy matter to bring the production per
acre from half bale to a bale, and the
additional cost Of the fertilizer.
God be with Us all

Cotton Growers Association.

Pursuant to the call published last
| week, Il small number of farmers and
others met in the court house last Mon
day at - o'clock for the purpose of or
sanizing 4 county cotton growers aSSo-
citation, which should have for its object
the controlling of the cotton acreage.
On motion of Capt j. G. Mcmillan, Hon.
Jno. W. Crum was made chairman and
\. w. Knight secretary. Mr.. Crum stated
the object of the meeting and urged that
some action be taken along the line in
dicatcd.. He said he had made it a rule
for several years to plant all the provis-
ion crops he needed for home consump-
ton and made cotton his surplus crop.
MIR. c. 4. Milhous spoke along the line
of raising provisions at home, and his re-
marks were we'll received.
f. T. LaFitte, Esq, also spoke along
the same line, and alluded to the control
of the grain and meat markets by the
trusts.
The following resolutions were then
adopted:
Whereas, we the farmers of Bamberg
county realize from past experience the
necessity of keeping the production of
cotton within reasonable bounds so as to
make it profitable; therefore be it
Resolved, That we will not increase,
during the present year, the acreage OF
cotton.
3. We recommend that the farmers of
this county plant fully as many acres IN
provision crops as they do in cotton.
5. That where a supply of. corn was
not made last year, we will increase the
acreage of corn, in order that we may
be sure of sufficiency.
4. That we will diversity our crops
wherever possible so as to reduce the
acreage in cotton.
5. That these resolutions be published
in the county papers.
Remarks were made by DR.. j. K. Nc
Cormack, Mr.. D. H. Rice and others, all
of which were to the point.
After some discussion as to perma-
nent organization, on motion of Mr.. u.
II. Rice it was decided to meet at the
court house the first Monday in May to
effect permanent organization. The
meeting then adjourned to meet at that
time. Although there was not large
crowd present, much earnestness was
shown, and it is hoped and believed that
the organization will bring about sub
stantisl benefit to the farmers. We know
it will if they will only act In concert, for
the movement is taking shape all over
the Southern States.
