Growing Fertilizers in the Soil.

If cotton is king the cowpea is
queen of the south! It is estimated
that there is ahoat over each acre Of
land in the air seventy-fve million Of
pounds of free nitrogen. Four-fifths
of the air is free nitrogen.
A good crop Of cowpeas is said to
store away in the soil upon its roots
as much nitrogen to each acre as there
is contained in from two to three
thousand pounds of cotton seed meal,
or other high grade ammoniated fer
tilizers.
What a Godsend this wonderful
cowpea is to the southern farmer !!
In the cowpea the southern farmer
has sure crop for forage for his AMI
mails and fine, rich grain food for all
stock and his family, too. And more
by intelligent cultivation Of the pea
crop it may be utilized as nature s
own vehicle to transport fertilizer
from natures inexhaustible store
house-the air-direetly into the soil
Of the farmers fields!
Then, again, the long burrowlng
roots of the cowpea is driven into the
subsoil by the cheap power OF nature.
Which may In some degree take the
place Of very, costly subsoil plough
ING with mule power. f.
I The millions Of little holes lett IN
the soil by deeayed roots OF the pea
are veritable little wells filled with
moisture in the decayed roots-humus
Indispensable preseryer OF
moisture that We must depend upon
to bridge. our crops over the summer
drought. -.
Farmers Of the south need never
buy dollars worth Of nitrogen
ammonia-if they will only follow ma
lures simple way Of supplying this
costly fertilizer ingredient to the soil.

The farmers nt :'e state Will please
take notice that the committee IL
charge of this bureau Of information
does not assume, or pretend to, pose
as the great head or seat of knowl-
edge, where any and all knowledge
pertaining to the farming interest of
the state may be obtained directly
from the Individual members Of oul
committee alone; but we solicit short
articles from practical farmers for
these columns from every quarter Of
the state on the subjects Of how to
grow profitable crops and how to turn
the profits of our farm crops into the
hands of the producers. And then
again the Farmers Union at the
Crossing wants to hear from the
Unions at the Forks of the Greeks,
and the Flatwoods Union wants to
hear how the Unions in the Red Hills
are doing. In fact, we want to know
more about each other, and what is
the best way to get at the things that
are to the farmers interest. We know
Of no better plan to get together and
to learn from each other than to main
tain bureau of information to farm
ers in the county newspapers through
out the state.
When it is known to the farmers of
the state that all the committee IN
charge Of our bureau of information
are practical and progressive farmers
from the fields, and that we are in
close touch with our state and govern
ment experiment stations, it IS ap-
parent at once that our farmers bu-
reau. of iuformation~hass behind 1t ffef
our support a. source from which to
draw upon for its information OF sub
jetcs Of practical and scientific farm
ing that is not excelled.
We now have in preparation for
our Farmers Union coulmns reports
from a. series of cooperative expert
ments on the~subjetcs Of growing nj

What Controls the Cotton Market?

We need not go far among the rec
ords to prove to any fair-mlnded man
that mems influence wave the price
as much as supply and demand. Well,
then, if one set Of men, like Wall
Street, can control prices, Why is it
that the men who. produce the cotton
and know cotton cannot control prices
even better than Wall, Street, who: is
not close to the fountain, in the cot
ton fields. where all knowledge as to
actual conditions of cotton must nee
essarily spring from9 Some say, Oh,
welk Wall Street has the money and
they are organized. too! Well, when
it comes down to solid facts the tar
mers of this country have four times
as much money invested IN his busl-
ness as all the manufacturing inter-
ests of the whole country, and over
four-ffths Of the whole business OF
our country is based upon the farming
interest. A combination Of even one
half or much less Of the wealth OF the
cotton farmers Of the south would
snow Wall Street under so deep that
she could never put her head up high
enough again to say cotton. All the
south needs is organization! She has
as GOOD collateral and as much as is
needed to control her business.

OF corn in regular alienation over
the whole field. and changing these
rows each season.
Our experiments are conducted by
practical farmers on their farms in
cooperation with experiment stations.
We expect to maintain profitable
prices for our products by organiza-
ton and loyal cooperation among
farmers.
With the birth of the Farmers
Union the farmers of the south have
taken their rightful position.
Farmers, line up, shoulder to shoul-
der with your neighbors, and lay hold
Of the wheels Of the Farmers Union
and push your interest forward.
