form too small a part OF the diet of
the average Southern family. for
these foods have great value aside
from the food value. They contain
some OF the essential salts which are
not secured to any extent In the
common dry foods that are largely
used on the table Reduce the

amount OF fruits and vegetables. and
there will be less need for medicines.
Many farmers say that 1t is cheap

here In the South. but can we always
get good fruit and does the farmer
buy IT? Very little fruit Is found
on the tables of the Southern farmer
and this Is largely due to the fact that
first-class fruit rarely reaches the
small towns and rural communities.

would be impossible to get If as
iresh as from the home orchard or
garden and the quality of the COM
merclal fruits is usually inferior to
those grown for home use. Fruit
to be shipped, must be picked before
II ripens and this detracts from the
quality.
NO part OF the farm pays as large
returns as the orchard and garden
ana no part so generally neglected
The average farmer expects to get
crop OF fruit without giving the trees
any attention and this accounts for
the failure Of most farm orchards.
We do not expect a crop of corn or
cotton unless it is cultivated and
furnished with plant food, so why
expect a crop of fruit?
In most sections of the South. ap-
pies, peaches, pears, plums, grapes,
figs and strawberries can be grown.
In the northern part of Mississippi
the raspberry and blackberry can be
grown, while in the southern sec
ton some of the sub-tropical fruits
are grown.
The fruit orchard in the northern
part of this State should contain
apples, pears. plums, peaches, grapes
and strawberries, at least, and rasp-
berries and blackberries might be
added
