crate quantities at intervals. Then II
a proper short rotation is practiced
and legumes brought frequently on the
land, | do not believe for the purposes
of the cotton Or grain farmer there
will ever be need for his buying an
ounce of nitrogen or ammonia. This
will bring us down on the red clay
lands to the one element of phos-
phorus in the form of p%hosphoric acid.
Now. if We use on these lands a lib
eral application of acid phosphate on
the pea crop. the peas will do the
rest, you may depend upon 1t. In
many sections of the tobacco belt the
growers are of the opinion that peas
preceding a crop of tobacco will in
iure the quality of the tobacco. They
certainly do not injure some kinds Of
tobacco, and in the bright tobacco
section | am of the opinion that the
trouble arises from the fact that the
nitrogen the peas give them, and they
apply the same fertilizer they would
without the peas, and thus get too
rank a growth. 1t may be well to put
another crop between the peas and
bright tobacco, or use a T. rtili2er with
a smaller percentage of ammonia, or
none, after the peas. But IL | could
not grow tobacco and improve my
land with legumes and the feeding OF
stock, | would grow some other money
crop that would let me improve the
soil. The same objection is common
with the peanut growers, and yet one
of the most successful peanut grow
ers | know of uses peas regularly for
the Improvement of his land, and is
thus enabled to use lime more benefi-
cially for his nuts, and ne grows larger
and better crops than the men who
are afraid of COW peas.
TO sum up, then. the improvement
of our lands depends on the deep and
thorough blowing, good tillage and nm
ing of the soil, a proper short rota-
ton with lesume crops for forage and
soil Improvement, and an economical
use OF fertilizers, simply using them
to help the crop that helps feed the
stock and land alike.

FARMERS SOCIETY is UNIQUE
Development of Cooperative Idea. at
Dassei, Mimi, Being Watched
With Much interest.

By c. r. BARNS. Minnesota University
FARM
The division of agricultural eXten,
sion is watching with much interest
the development of the cooperative
idea among the farmers in the vicinity
OF Dassel, Mimi. Beginning as an ord
mary farmers club, it has become al
unique farmers corporation, with an
authorized capital stock of $4,000, and
operating three special departments
a contrasting association, a stock
shipping business and an egg-sellins
department. 1t has also made a be-
ginning in the cooperative shipment
OF produce; having marketed, up to a
recent date, six car loads OF hay; and
it is looking forward to arrangements
for supplying it's stockholders with
selected seed corn and other seeds,
Some peculiar features of the organ
ization-which render it unique SO far
make is unusually attractive to inde.
pendent farmers, who object to associ-
atoms likely to be dominated by one
Or two men making a larger invest
ment than the others-are these:
l. No stockholders, whatever the
number of shares he ma own, can
have more than n vote; and no per-
son can hold more than 100 shares
CS500) of stock.
2. Instead of dividends, the stock
draws interest at the rate of six per
cent. per annum; but the payment OF
such interest may be annuiled by a
vote at the annual meeting following
it's accruing.
8. Dividends, instead of being APP
portioned according to the amount of
stock held. are apportioned according
to the amount of business each stock
holder has done with the department
from which the dividends are derived.
4. Operating expenses are betrayed
by a tax of a certain percentage on
the amount of business done In any
department.
These provisions are supplemented
by others in the bylaws, and in a
very just and well-drawn code of regu-
lations concerning the shipping Of
stock, ETC.; the whole giving tie inn
preston that the spirit of fraternity
and mutual good will so dominates
the organization as to make certain
its steady growth and prosperity.

|GRERT DEMAND FOR COTTON
sForty-two Million Bales Of Staple Re
CURED Each Year to Clothe
D Whole Human Family.

ITO clothe the whole Of humanity
ould require AZ, coo, 600 bales of cot
ton each year"
% This statement was made by Presi-
dent Hobbs, of the National Associa-
stion of Cotton Manufacturers, at it's
Erecent annual meeting in Boston.
Mr.. Hobbs said that, of the 1,500 ,000,-
S000 inhabitants of the world, only
300, 0G0 900 are completely clothed,
while 750,0 coo, 900 are only partially
lothed and $50 00. 900 are practically
oot clothed at all. AS civilization adj
yances, the proportion of the partial
zlv clothed and the unclothed will de-
crease, and this, with the increase Of
Population in civilized countries, will
Ecall for an increased supply of cotton.
#The cotton belt of the United States
NOW furnishes fully two-thirds of the
Aworld supply of cotton, and, as the
sdemand Increases. will be called up
9on greatly to increase it's annual pro-
sluction.
The problem that confronts us is to
keep the cotton production of the
youth abreast of the demand by bring
ing about the adoption OF those cul-
Stural methods which will result in
sarger average yields per acre, thus
Increasing tie profitab'eness of cot
8ton growing and leaving surplus lands
to be devoted to other crops and the
Igrowing of live stock. 1t is clearly
more profitable to a farmer to pro-
sduce fifty bales of cotton on fifty
acres than to produce the same
mount on one hundred acres, for
ne will receive the same amount for
his cotton and will have fifty acres
|Ior other uses. Under ordinary cir
cumstances, every increase in the av-
@srags yield of cotton per acre reduces
The cost of production per pound and
u ields the farmer a larger margin OF
Lroft between the cost of growing
his crop and the selling price.
