The Tamworth hog is not as popu-
lar in the United States as 1t de-
serves. A few pigs of this breed
were brought over from England
about 80 years ago. but until the last
three or four years it was not regard
ed favorably.
The appearance Of the Tamworth
is somewhat against 1t. Its rather
long head does not impress farmers
favorably, and there is general be-
lief that 1t costs more to bring Tam
worth to maturity than almost any
other type. Experiments show. how
ever. that this claim is based mainly
on prejudice, for the Tamworth in
Canada has proven itself to be an
excellent and economical feeder
This breed is especially well adapt.

to give an idea. Native farmyards

Diversified Crops and Stock
Raising For the South.

Knoxville, July 49, President
Finley, of the Southern Railway
Company, was the principal speak
er this evening at a meeting of the
Directors of the Appalachian Ex-
position and business men of
Knoxville, his subject being The
Development of the Appalachian
Region"
He emphasized very strongly the
economic strength Of the South
eastern section of the United States
growing out of its natural resources
and climatic adva ntages, and eX-
pressed the opinion that no locality
was more favorably located or
better fitted by its natural re-
sources for progressive development
than the Southern Appalachian
region.
He pointed out the great advan-
tage enjoyed by the South in its
supremacy in cotton production,
and urged the importance of con-
stantIy endeavoring to strengthen
this advantage by bringing about
the general adoption of methods
that will result in the more econom-
ical production of cotton by OBJ
tanning larger yields per acre and
that will enable the Southern
cotton planters to keep pace with
the ever increasing demand of the
world. He did not advocate doing
this by growing cotton to the ex-
clusion of other crops, but rather
by diversified agriculture and live
stock raising as means of cOnserv-
ing and building up soil fertility.
After citing statistics showing the
increased yields per acre obtained
by Tennessee farmers during the
past five years as compared with
the ten years from 1876 to 1885,
Mr.. Finley said:
This shows that the farmers of
Tennessee have learned and are
applying scientific methods of soil
conservation. The averages for
the past five years, including the
bad with the good, fall far below
the yields of which Tennessee soils
are capable and far below the re-
suits obtained by the most pro-
gressive farmers. For the State
Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1911-07-20

as whole, the average yields per
acre are still far below what they
ought to be and below what will
speedily be attained when the
great body Of Tennessee farmers
have adopted the methods now
being practiced by the most pro-
gressive. Year by year more far
mers are adopting the best methods
and year by year, larger areas of
soils are being benefited by scien-
tifc treatment. We may expect
that in Individual years some crops
will suffer from adverse weather
conditions, but [ believe we may
safely predict that each successive
five-year period will show better
results than the preceding five
years for a long time, to come
The reports of the United States
Agricultural Department on the
condition Of this seasons growing
crops bear out his prediction. They
show the condition of cotton, corn,
and wheat in Tennessee as better
than last year when the average
yield per acre of each of these crops
in this state was in excess of the
five-year average"
Speaking of the advantages of
the Southeastern States for raising
live stock and for the dairy indus
try, Mr.. Finley referred to the
accessibility of markets, to the
mild winters and long grazing
season to the increasing demand
for meat and dairy products, and
to the fact that as a result of the
cutting up the Western ranges into
farms, a larger proportion of the
meat supply of the country must
be farm grown. He spoke of the
cattle tick as having been in the
past handicap to the live stock
and dairying Industries of some
parts of the South, and said:
The management of the railway
company that | have the honor to
represent, considers the develop
ment of the live stock and dairying
industries in the Southeastern
States of such great importance
that we have recently appointed a
Live Stock Agent and a Dairy
Agent to devote their entire time
to working in cooperation with
the farmers along our lines for the
development of these industries.
In cooperation with the State Com
missioners of Agriculture and the
United States Agricultural Depart
ment, we are also aiding in dissem-
nation of information as to the
importance of eradicating the
cattle tick and the best method Of
doing it"
