In view of the fact that a great
many farmers and planters have not
yet realized the importance and abb
solute necessity of planting sufi-
cient acreage in feed crops in ord
er TO produce enough for home
consumption, We deem it strongly
advisable to give our friends a few
more words of warning at this criti-
cal moment, period in the agricul-
tural season that means much in-
deed to your future welfare. Now
appears to be the opportune time
to begin making earnest, active
preparations for next years living,
independence and prosperity.

wise you now to plant your RICH

1 am aware of the fact that forty
years ago the manhood of this State
returned to their shattered homes,
broken, bleeding, and poverty
stricken from the terrible conflict
of four years war. I know that
the wonderful achievements of
those heroes within the past for
ty years have been unequaled by
any people in the annals of history
since the dawn of civilization.
However, there remains much to be
done. We ought never to be salts
fed until we are in the front rank
of progress in peaceful industrial
life. We need more railroads we
need factories of every kind in ev.
cry town our lands ought to be
intelligently titled we ought tc
grow every farm product necessary
for home use so that we may
keep our cotton money at home
and deposit it in our banks and wir

Why does the average Iowa farm
er make nearly eight times as much
per year as the average Mississippi
farmer? !? The Iowa farmer keeps
plenty of live stock and puts the
manure OH his lard. He rotates
his crops, grows leguminous crops,
and thoroughly prepares his land.
He cultivates about fifty acres of
this highly productive soil by use
of strong teams and labor-saving
farm implements. His soil is three
times as productive and he cultiv-
ates three times as many acres.
