vate and harvest a grain crop, or to
raise stock, that a great many farm
ers will have to plant less cotton and
raise more grain and stock. Grain,
hay raising and stock raising go
hand in hand, and are to my mind
the most profitable lines of agricul-
ture in our State. By raising an
abundance of grain and hay we can
keep our live stock fat. By raising
stock we can with the manures make
our land rich. If we make our lands
rich they will make us rich. If l
could control the labor, I expect /
would do as the farmers of my coun-
ty have done for the last forty years;
plant cotton exclusively. But we can
not, and we must meet the situation,
and if we can not get the labor re-
CURED to make the cotton then we
must do the next best thing. / am
quite sure that our aim should be to
raise those crops that are most in
the demand and we can most easily
cultivate, harvest and market with
the least cost and labor. By utiliz-
ing the latest and most up-to-date
machinery for seeding and harvest
ing grain and crops, an ordinary
family, with two or three boys can
seed and harvest a crop of grain,
that will equal in value a cotton crop
which will take fifteen or twenty
hands to plant, cultivate and house;
besides the boys really enjoy the
work with the machines and teams.
Negro farm labor is not careful
enough, nor is it competent to oper-
ate farm machinery. I think our
white boys should be encouraged to
do this work. I am sure II we will
adopt this method of farming, the
boys will stop leaving the farms and
going to town to seek employment,
as they have been doing. They will
find that this kind of farming will
pay them as we'll as any other kind
of employment hat they can get.
DIVERSIFIED FARMING FOR
CAROLINA.
We should diversity crops, and
make everything on the farm that
we need at home as near as possible,
also to supply our towns and cities
with everything they may need in
the way of country produce, such as
meat, flour, corn, hay, beef, mutton,
chickens, eggs, milk, butter and
everything they may need. We
should also remember that we can
market III produce with much more
facility I'VE u roads in their pres
ent condition, in summer than in
winter. If we raise grain, hay, veg
etables, chickens, eggs, pigs, beef,
milton, and the. dairy products, we
have something to sell all the year
around, and will not have to borrow
money through the summer months
( or buy our supplies on time as we
do when we plant cotton or tobacco.
Our State is dotted all over with

EDTcATIoN INDISPENSABLE TO
SUCCESSFUL FARMING.

Convention, Raleigh, July p, 1908, by Mr..

Paper read before North Carroll
ma Farmers Convention, Raleigh,

ridge, of Edgecombe County, N. CT.
In my opinion, one of the greatest
needs of the State to-day is agricul-
tural education, or the education of
the farmers and the farmers boys
and the girls. This has been sadly
neglected in North Carolina, and
these boys who have been educated,
have not had the advantage of an
agricultural education, because there
has been no opportunity offered in
the State for them to get it, and for
this reason, the agricultural interest
of the State has suffered, and the
brightest boys have left the farms to
those boys who have not been edu-
Gated, either because they did not
have the opportunity, or were too
INDECENT to accept it. A very large
per cent of the professional men,
and business men, and men who fill
positions of trust throughout the
State were farmer boys, and spent
their boyhood days upon the farm.
The boys raised on the farm seem
to be more Vigorous, more manly, and
brighter, both in mind and body than
the town and city boys. If we could
induce our farmer boys to stay on
the farm, and the State would equip
the A. q. NJ. College in a manner to
offer them an agricultural education,
you would see this old State of ours
blossom as a rose, and her most i'm
portant interest would be revived
and would take its place at the head
of the States great interest, where
it rightly belongs, for North Carolina
is an agricultural State, and will be
for generations to come.
EDUCATING FARM BOYS
We should educate our boys and
girls in agriculture, and teach them
the independence of farm life, that
on the farm there is health and hap
piness, and [ believe there is to-day,
in our State, as good an opening for
profitable industry in agriculture, as
in any other business or profession
that is legitimate and right; indeed,
1 had rather for my boys to be up
te-date farmers, than to be lawyers,
doctors, manufacturers, or to be en-
gagged in any other business of any
kind, for I believe it is not only
more healthy and pleasant, but I be-
lieve an up-to-date, educated farmer
can make as much money and ac-
cumulate as much property as a
any business or professional man.
But, to be a successful farmer, we
must have an agricultural education,
obtained, either at an agricultural
school or by practical experience
Goth would be best). We must know
the nature of our soils and the kind
and quantity of fertilizers required
on them for different crops. We

MR.. DAUTRIDGE's OWN STORY.
It is the small things on the farm,
that count. It is just as importan+
to look after the small things on .
big farm as it is on a small one, Tn
fact, it is the only way a big farm
can be made to pay a profit. 7 am
speaking from my own experience
and if you will pardon me for re-
ferring to my personal affairs. 7 will
relate to you what I have accom-
plished in the last eight years bv
adopting the method of farming
suggested above. In 1894 my father
died. He left me about four hun
dred and fifty acres of land on Tar
RIVER in Edgecombe County, and
just enough money to stock this
farm and to make one crop. [ went
to work on this farm, adopting the
plan outlined above, since that time
I have bought and paid for, with
profits from the farm about $500
acres of land adjoining it. I have
built modern farm buildings, and
stocked nay farms with the best
types of dairy and beef cattle. I am
raising horses and mules instead of
buying them. I have over one hun
dred head of cattle, forty head of
mules and horses, and about one
hundred each of swine and sheep.
I receive each year from the sale Of
milk, butter, beef cattle, lambs, pigs,
vegetables, fruits, wood, and other
such things as I can pick up around
the farm that is not needed, nearly
enough money to pay my entire farm
expenses, and thereby leaving my
cotton crop of $50 or 800 bales clear
for my years work. I raise my cot
ton mostly with tenants. l furnish
the team and farming implements,
all of the manures except One-haIt
of the commercial fertilizers, and
the land, they furnish the labor, and
we go halves in the crop. l have
made on my farm for the last eight
years from five to ten thousand dol
lars a year clear, and have sold two
or three crops of cotton for four or
five cents a pound. The secret Of my
success is in looking closely after the
small things on the farm. 1t IS an
old maxim, but a true one, LAKE
care of the cents and the dollars Will
take care of themselves" l mention
these personal matters with reluc-
lance, and not in a spirit OF boast
ing, but to show what can be lone on
a farm, and to encourage young men
to stay on the farm and to make
agriculture their life work, for any
young man that is bright and is IN
dustrious and will apply himself can
make a comfortable living and
money besides, farming.
