PRACTICAL METHODS
URGED IN FARMING
Some Ringing Suggestions Re-
ported at Farmers Union
Convention.

We. your Committee on Agri-
culture. beg leave to submit the
following:
Farming is both a science and
art, distinctive and unique in IT.
self and the oldest occupation
followed by man for livelihood.
1t has improved and degenerated
with tie rise and fall of civiliza-
ton in all the ages past. 1t has
advanced from the crooked stick
as a pillow and the reap hook OF
ancient Egypt and Assyria to the
Riding Cultivator and the Nc
Corinick Reaper and Builder OF
to-day. And yet we stand, as 1t
were, upon the threshold of the
vast possibilities of intensive
farming and scientific agriculture.
As we look back over the rug
ged way we have come we see the
path strewn with mistakes and
failures and by these We should
learn wisdom.
LIST. We have sought after the
money crops. Every thing we
could sell for a dollar we would
try to grow, regardless of the
drain upon the soil or the loss in
buying back the necessities which
might have been grown instead.
End. We have spent our profits
by investments IN other business,
the taking up of side lines and by
getting out of the profession as
soon rs possible into other bust
ness, instead of improving our
farms, intensifying our methods
and identifying our homes.
3rd. We have rejected for tie
most part the advice and the suf-
gestions offered us by the Agri-
cultural Departments of our State
and National Governments and
the various agricultural papers
and writer's, which have been to
So much advantage to the more
advanced farmers of the North
and East.
Now, we urge all farmers to
decide once for all, whether or
not they prefer Agriculture as a
profession to any other, and if
not. that they get out AZ once and
begin that which they do prefer.
I'd. That each farmer wilt begin
to look upon his farm as his home
Cor the balance of his natural life
and for his children thereafter.
3rd. That he begin at once to
develop ard preserve the strength
and fertility of his soil by deep
blowing and drainage, if bottom
land, and by deeper blowing and
terracing if uplands; by rotation
of crops and the planting of
Legumes for developing nitrogen,
producing bacteria and by keep
ing crop suited to the season
growing continuously thereon.
4th. That we diversity by grow
ing more improved stock, more
fruit and more feed for stock and
food crops, depending more upon
SURPRISES for the small amount of
money necessary under such a
system.
5th. That we spend more time
and money when available in the
identifying of our homes, adding
conveniences thereto and to the
making of the home and the farm

MANY CHANGES
OF PASSING YEARS
How the Southland is Awake
ing and will Grow and Ex-
pand in Beauty.

Il has come to pass that the
great minds of the country, na-
tional and State, the intelligent
thinkers, have arrived at the full
realization of the fact that the
products of the soil are the source
of ali the human industries of the
world. 1t makes all the intrlca-
cIes of business pursuits. lt up
holds the professions with their
intelligent and scientific advance
ment. 1t stands beneath the
pulpits, that are the arenas OF
fervid oratory in proclaiming the
truths of Christianity. 1t is the
fulcrum that is elevating the ma
tions of the earth into the higher
| intelligence and the light of civil
lzation. In fact it is the light
aud life of all things upon its
surface, animate and inanlmate.
So when destructive pests &C.
plete and destroy the fruits of
honest toll and industry, at once
the intellectual genius of man is
utilized and brought to bear to
annihiIate the cause or circum-
vent their ravages. No expense,
no labor. no skill and genius Of
the human intellect is spared or
wanting to foil the inroads which
the deterrent forces of nature 5
enemies make upon the great
treasure house of its untold riches.
Out of the knowledge of man
come the herculean efforts to
protect the fruits of the soil.
Wherefore? 1t is the principle of
self-protection. 1t means to him
his life. his happiness, his pros
perity. and all the comforts nee
essarY To his well being.
In a great measure it Is selfish
1t il the meaHS used To build up
the prosperity and abundance of
the tuilers of the earth, that plans
may be consummated to despoil
them of the fruits of their labor
IN orde' to pour its riches into
the Golfers of the worshipperss of
gold. Ii fee Is corporate greed.
1t taint> private and official life
with hideous graft. 1t makes
slaves and serfs of honest freemen.
1t corrupts the very authors of Its
existence, being utilized at the
expense of the many for the ben
eft and enrichment of the few.
So it has come TO pass that the
forum and the press are earnestly
iaboring and largely occupied in
promoting the expansion, the
success, the welfare and the in
crease of the products of the soil.
The press is teeming with the
advocacy of improved AMI scien-
tific methods of cultivating the
soil and promoting the prosperity
of the men with the hoes.
All this is working wonderful
transformations In methods, and
not less teaching the agricultural
lists how t live more prosperousIy
and happily at home. as well AS
how to reap the benefits of their
toll. Yes, it is working trem-
endous revolution In this South
land. If there is added To this,
that thoughtful direction that
comes from skill and science,
then will this land flow with milk |
and honey. Its smiling >kies will
become wreathed with greater
brightness. It's genial air will
bcstow warmer kisses upon the
land. Its bosom, warmed by the
amorous sunbeams. will respond
with its richest caresscs and gifts. |
Then shall abundance dwell in
every home united with peace and
happiness.

9Th. That we condemn the eX-
tensive use of ready mixed COM
mercial fertilizers and urge that
where chemical fertilizers are
necessary to piece out the barn
yard supplies and the compost
heap and the work of the Legum-
es, that we get the Acid Phos-
phate. the Kainite and other ele-
ments and make our own mixtures
suitable to our respective soils
and their varied conditions, urg-
ing our people to remember that
each cow or horse on the farm. If
properly cared for, will produce
each year the best of fertilizers to
the value of thirty-five dollars.

within their income and to avoid
debt as they would pestilence.
knowing full well that independ-
ence and hence the ability to CO.
operate in buying and selling is
impossible with debts and mortg-
ages.
Sth. That we recommend CO.
operation in buying and selling in
bulk and for cash through our
warehouses and business agents,
or any Improvement of the ware
house system, but we deprecate
the establishment of retail stores
or manufactures or any other
business that properly belongs to
another profession, because it has
a tendency to take good farmers
out of our profession and make
sorry merchants or other profess
SIGNALS out of them.
9th. That we urge our member
ship to take the monthly bulletins
and reports sOf our Agricultural
and Experiment stations. which
can be had for asking and sub
scribe for one or two good practi-
cal farm papers and to study them
and that we urge our official or
gan, The Banner. To begin AN
Agricultural Department in which
pertinent aid practical topics on
farming can be discussed and ex-
periments given toward educating
our membership in the science of
Agriculture.
10th. That we urge our men,
bership to attend our State Fair
at Shreveport and their respective
Parish Fairs where organized and
to organize one in all parishes not
so organized. These fairs furnish
a splendid medium through which
we can exhibit to one another the
best results of our intensive farm
ing and improved stock breeding,
thus stimulating renewed effort
and widely disseminating valuable
information on methods and vari-
cites Of crops and breeds of stock.
Finally, brethren, let us make
our local monthly meetings more
farmers Institutes, where we, as
as the proud members of noble
profession, can compare notes
and mutually admire one another's
successes and congratulate our
selves on being in the most indie
pendent and the oldest profession
