paying from SIS to Sly per ton. This
to me is the strangest condition that
I've found since my advent in the
Delta. If Timothy hay Is worth SIS
per ton, l am sure that sorghum hay
is worth $Io per ton. Then l assert
that ten tons would be small crop
of sorghum per acre; that would be
500 per acre. With normal seasons
on this land. assert without fear,
that | can raise twenty tons per acre,
which would mean 5000 per acre. I
have seen thirty tons per acre raised,
but that was on the best of land, the
season exceptionally favorable, and
three crops cut. That of course is
the exception, and not the rule.
Now, IT | am correct, that light
crop is worth $500 and a fair crop
$500 per acre, then why not take a
few acres of the cotton land, on which
you can only hope for about $40 per
acre. and raise sorghum hay? The
difference in favor Of sorghum would
be from $50 to $r6o per acre; and
mind you, | am putting sorghum hay
at two-thirds the value of what you
are now paying for Timothy know
that cotton in the Southern States is
now and always will be the CONNER
cial crop, the backbone of the South,
but to grow cotton successfully and
probably we must raise enough corn,
hay and other feedstuffs to maintain
the farm animals. This is the proper
| way to reduce the cotton acreage and
keep up the price of cotton. This is
far better than trying to keep the
price up by resolution.
Texas depended almost entirely on
cotton for q livlihood. The boil wee
vii made their appearance, and for a
few years the people were staggered,
| upset, demoralized, and bankruptcy
was very common. The people began
to study. They changed their mode
of farming, and feel sure that ninety
per cent. of them adopted what is
known as cultural methods, advocated
for the last few years BY the United
States agricultural department

the lessons they were being taught.
Then the most progressive ones be-
gan evolving and originating new
ideas, and today Texas people are in
a better financial cndition, happier
and more contented than ever since
the settlement of the State.
We realize that cotton is king, yet
to grow cotton proftahly we have
found by bitter experience that it is
necessary to grow corn, hay, hogs
and poultry. In short, we no longer
want to expend all energy and money
on any one crop.

/ A few years ago before he died,
famous sonnet to aOpportunity," from

life when small voice within has
seemed to point to one or the other
OF the ways before you? That voice
IS opportunity In short, the grasp
ing of opportunity is the taking of
what seems of itself to be the near
est duty-remember the word duty!
There is another famous poem on
Opportunity" which tells the lesson
IN simpler, homlier WY. It is Ed
ward Rowland Sill's:
This | behold, or dreamed il IN 4
dream;
There spread a cloud of dus: along
plain,
And underneath the cloud, or in it,
ragged
A furious battle, and men yelled, and
swords
princes banner
Wavered, then staggered backward
hemmed by foes.
A craven hung along the battles edge
And thought: Had l a sword of
keener steel
That blue blade that the kings son
bears-but this
Blunt thing" he snapt and flung it
from his hand,
And. lowering. crept away and left
the fell
Then came the kings son, wounded,
sore bestead,
And weaponless, and saw the broken
sword,
Hit buried in the dry and trodden
sand,
And ran and snatched it, and with
battle shout
Lifted afresh, he hewed his enemy
down
And saved great cause that heroic
day
The poems that have been written
have a place in the world No life
is complete and rounded without the
intimate friendship of some Of these
children of souls.
There is the great fact, however,
which needs no perpetuation in rrym-
ed stanzas-that he who waits for
opportunity to come in chariot,with
trumpeters and q great noise, shah
sit in the shadow of everlasting dis
appointment.
Like the voice of the God of ma
tions, it is not in the wind or the
mighty thunder. but in the still, small
voice which points to the near duty
even though that be small.

Diversity the Crops.

IF there IS to be any increased acre
age this year, let it be of corn, sor-
phum and other food crops. There
IS not much danger of an overproduc-
ton of these foodstuffs; and if you

raise more than You win need, there
will be no trouble at all about dispos-
