Mr.. w. T. Green. OF Clay county
Georgia, is showing what can be done
in the way Of cotton growing. In 1907
he measured of ten acres Of land
which he planted in cotton. 1t was
generously fertilized and carefully cui-
tivated. and the result was ten bales
of 500 pounds each. In 1908 he tried
again and made fifteen bales Of the
same weight and this year he ex-
poets to do still better. There are
two important advantages in such
farming He not only makes pay
ing crop OF cotton but leaves most of
his land for other crops. Both these
are we'll worth striving for. we should
