TRUCK GROWING

general principles that l shall try to
confine my remarks today. But be-
fore beginning 1.-THE discussion of the
details of truck growing, | want first
to compare for your benefit the advan-
tages and disadvantages of truck
growing, as compared to general, or,
rather, staple farm crops.
Chief among the advantages is that
as a rule from lands devoted to truck
growing, less land is required than for
general farming, and this constitutes
an advantage that will have the care
full consideration of every man who is
called upon to purchase land in this,
the day of rapidly increasing prices
on that kind of property.
Another advantage which to my
mind is of much greater Importance
than the one just mentioned, is the

or shipped that really adds to the
wealth of a community, and as but a
very small per cent. of the truck
grown in West Tennessee is consumed
here, but most of it being shipped to
distant cities, it must add largely to
our wealth. Practically all of the
crops grown here are shipped to cities
north of the Ohio river, and the mon
ey received for them is all spent or
invested in the community where the
stuff is grown, with the exception of
the small percentage which is sent
away for fertilizers, and that usually
goes no further than Memphis or
Nashville.
This is not so true of staple crops,
except cotton, these being sold to men
in the community and amounts to q
change Of ownership rather than an
addition wealth of that place.
No New Wealth.
While it is absolutely necessary
that we have food to eat and clothes
to wear and food for our stock. if we
only produce what We and they eat
and wear out we are no better Off al

the beginning but rather the worse
