Your First Duty as a Farmer
The Progressive Farmer.


Is good farming which does not |
maintain and increase the fertil- |
ity OF the soil. Big crops are no
indication OF good farming when
they are produced at excessive
costa man may make a big
crop and leave both himself and
his land poorer for the operat lion.
a man doing this may be any
thing but a good farmer. But
the man who increases the fertil.
ity OF his land year after year so
that he can produce prof able
crops with each recurring season
he is farmer worthy OF the
title.
The soil is the source from
which all our wealth must be
drawn. He who wastes this her.
itage Of all men and thus leaves
the world poorer for those who
shall come after him, commits a
crime against provident nature
and against humankind. He
who redeems the waste places,
who makes the desert to bios
som and the barren fields to
bring forth, is one of humanity's
benetactOrs.
The question is: Which are
you going to be--a farmer, who
helps to make his country more
fair and fruitful, or mere rob-
Der who draws with selfish inn
providence upon the bounty of
the earth and makes no return?
II is for you TO decide in this,
the beginning OF another farm
year and we cannot believe
that you will willfully decide to
be soil robber.
To say nothing of the moral
aspect of the question-and, far
mer friends, there is moral as
pect-this business of soil de
pletion is financially Improbable.
We of the South can see only
too plainly the results of such
system, "worn-Out', abandoned
tields, poor stock, poor houses,
few conveniences, cheap lands,
"a POOR people, in short, so
shown by census reports and so
regarded by people of other Sec
iions.
Isn't ii time for US to about
face and and change these things!
Secretary Wilson says that with
seven years of good farming the
average Southern land would be
worth 800 an acre. Is not
that, with all that it would mean,
a prize worth striving for?
II so seems to us. But how
are We to do il! There are
many little details to which
careful attention should be given;
but there are few fundamental
rules which must be observed.
(l) We must not permit our
lands to wash. Whatever will
prevent this, deep plowing, ter
races. cover crops, is thing not
to be neglected.
(2) We must not expect to
take from our lands all the time
without returning something.
We have the fertilizer habit,
and so we are not as likely to at
tempt this as are farmers of
some other sections; but
(4) We must keep up the sup
ply Of humus as well as of plant
food, and this we have shame
fully neglected to do. This means
cover crops again, and green

WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
Progressive improvement Reported from Practi-
caIly Every Business Center.

New York, Oct S-R G. Dun & co. s
weekly review Of trade tomorrow VIII
say:
From every large business center
throughout the country come reports OF
progressive Improvement In trade. In
most instances the reports are more than
satisfactory; they speak of present and
prospective Increase in activity that IS
indicative Of return to even more than
normal conditions.
I'm some cases the volume OF trade Is
described as equal u or in excess OF pre-
vious records. In the iron and steel trade
full productive capacity appears TO have
been approached, and the outlook for 1910
is so bright that II is impossible 10 give
an account Of It that does not seem to
break through the bounds OF conservative
utterance
Railroad earnings during September
were remarkable. aggregating 1913 per
cent in excess OF 1905. and So per cent in
excess or 1907 when comparison is made
with ante-panic conditions.
"All previous monthly records OF pig
iron output were ecllpsed during Septem-
Dor. and furnaces throughout the coun-
try are now producing 70 a greater yearly
rate than ever before According 10 last
months figures. the outturn established
the enormous total Of 2.3S5. 2O6 tons, which
is almost 20 per cent larger than In the
corresponding period year ago. and
about $1,000 tons IN excess OF october.
1907, when the preceding high point Of
production was reached.
Commercial failures this week IN the
United States are 1872. against 236 last
week. 1SS the preceding week. and 256 the
corresponding week last year. Failures
IN Canada number 80, against g last
week. 81 the preceding week. and % last
year"
The Washington herald., 1909-10-09

New York, Oct. S.-Bradstreet's review
Of the state OF trade tomorrow will say:
Favorable reports are the rule in
nearly all lines of trade and industry.
with conservatism, bred by high prices
Of raw and manufactured products, and
fun order books Of manufacturers. the
only apparent bears TO an even wider
distribution in most wholesale lines.
Wholesale trade in staple lines IS
good beyond question. even the South.
which faces a short yield OF cotton, show
ing a better and more cheerful tone be-
cause Of the high price offered for it's
leading staple at period OF nearly rec
ord crop movement
"On the other hand. cotton manufac-
turers here. at the South, and abroad
are discussing curtailment OF output IN
an effort TO readiust prices OF goods
which are strong and tending upward 10
which is 50 per cent higher than a year
ago
THE corn crop has been saved free Of
frost damage. and VIII at least equal
last years yield. Warm. dry weather
has favored corn and cotton crop gath
ering and marketing. On the other hand.
II is a check to fullest activity IN retail
trade at some Northwestern and South
ern points
THE commodity price situation is one
OF great strength for a heavy crop NOV
ing period. Talk OF farmers holding
wheat. but selling corn and cotton free
~, is general.
Railroads are prohting by the large
crop and general merchandise movement.
and the number OF idle cars stu de-
creases steadily"
