Diversity Your Crop.

Don't follow the all-cotton fallacy
this year-too many others are more
apt than not to do so, and every cot
ton planter and man who depends
on the feecy staple for a livelihood
is likely to face an unprecedentedly
large crop and low prices next fall.
Diversity your crop-plant corn,
potatoes, peas, cane, and plenty OF
garden truck; raise and fatten a few
hogs, and fill your yard with poultry.
Remember, "a bird in the hand is
worth two in the BUSH" and if you
have plenty of meat, meal and mo-
lasses at home, the condition of the
cotton market need cause you no
sleepless nights.
Take our advice, and make and
keep your living right at home.
