The Missiasippi Union Advocate,
which has been greatly improved in
it's editorial columns, is publishing
many good articles showing the
practicability of wheat growing in
this State, giving the experience Of
many farmers who have successfully
raised Mississippi wheat. The show
ing is most encouraging, both as to
crop and acreage, and many a farm
er's home will be gladened this fall
with homo-raised flour, which will
prove itself to be far more whole
some than the -four raised in Mime
sofa or the Dakotas. This is one OF
the ways that diversified farming
will tend to check both the boil wee
vii and high priced wheat.
Tho fact that Chas. Scott has eigh-
ty acres planted in wheat, which is
reported to be growing finely and
doing we'll, has opened the eyes of
the people of the State, for Mr.. Scott
is one of the largest farmers in Mis-
sissippi, and plants the crops that
pay best. He is satisfied that it is
cheaper to grow wheat in Mississip-
pi than to buy flour from abroad.
The grinding and boiling is a sim
pie process we'll known to most of
the older farmers of tho State, and
the necessary outfit will cost but
little.
Jim Hill, the great economic writ.
or, says the reason that wheat and
hogs are high is that the crop is not
sufficient to feed the increased mul'
titudes. In other words that the
population of the country is multip-
lying faster than the wheat and hog
production. That being true, as it
doubtless is, every farmer in Mis-
sissippi should raise his own corn,
wheat and hogs. That done, the
nightmare of the boil weevil would
soon pass away, and there would be
happiness where there is now dis
tress.
Keep your eye on the wheat prod
uction in Mississippi.

The agricultural fair is one Of the
very best developers of good farm

flore County should come to the

stock, the best corn, the best hay,
poultry and other farm products
brought together where, by COM
parison, much can be learned.
