iished. money-making industry that
Is conducted along the same lines
as a large cotton producing farm.
Mr.. Moore has employed an expert
to manage his farm. 1t is his pur-
pose to raise cabbage, beans, po-
tatoes and other vegetables in such
quantities as will enable him to
ship his produce to northern mar
kets in car load lots. But never
theless Mr.. Moore's results from
this new industry will be watched
with no small degree of interest. 1t
means great deal to this section.

the beginning of an era with posi-
bilities which cannot be exagger-

Tie Southern farmers have shown
good judgment in rejecting the Of
fer OF the New York bankers to
advance $5O,00O,0OO to finance the
cotton crop. The proposition had
too many strings tied to it to safe
guard tie interests of the farmer.
Cotton Is worth $25 per bale any
where in the world and there Is
scarcely a bank in the South that
will refuse to advance that much
on a bale of cotton. The only 30
luton of the cotton problem is the
warehousing system. There is
enough money in the South to
protect a surplus of from 2 to 4
million bales and IL the farmers
will organize and build enough
warehouses to store the sur. 4us
crop their friends at home will ad-
vance the money to finance it. The
New York plan was a good propo-
sition for the New Yorker. If 1t
had succeeded the New Yorker
would have been better off by sew
eral million dollars.

The Herald wishes every one of
its readers a merry Christmas and
happy New Year. To many of
us the year now closing has been
full of trials and disappointments,
but still it has not been without
It's joys and its successes. 1t is
the strong man who will lay aside
the cares and burdens of life dur
ing the holidays and enter into the
spirit of Christmas with an enthu-
siasm that will tighten the cares
and burdens of his weaker brethren.
Real happiness comes only through
making others happy. and as happi-
ness Is contagious it requires but
little effort to bring happiness tc
the hearts of those who surround
you. The trials and disappointments
of the year should be forgotten.
IL you have suffered remember there
are others who have suffered with
you - whose burdens have been
greater than yours - but through
1t all they have smiled. The New
Year is full of promise and pree-
nant with possibilities. The coun-
try has received a temporary set
back that will call for retrench-
ment and reform along certain lines.
There will have to be a re-adiust-
ment and reorganization of busi-
ness methods to meet certain con-
ditions that will confront the coun-
try with the birth of the New Year.
1t does not mean disaster, but sue
cess. 1t means that from the bit
ter experiences of the present year
there will follow many benefits dur
Ing the coming year. There is work
for men Of brain and Drawn to do,
but If you go into the fight with
bowed head and broken spirit you
have lost before the battle begins
With head and shoulders erect en-
ter the New Year. determined to
make 1912 the banner year in the
history OF the country. Be one of
the fighters.

1t may be worth your while to
investigate the trucking industry
before you decide to plant all of
your land in cotton next year. There
Is no assurance that cotton will sell
for more than s cents per pound
next year and every farmer knows
that it costs almost that much to
produce a pound Of cotton. We do
not claim that you will get rich
from the trucking industry. There
are men who have made fortunes in
one year from truck, but there are
others who have lost fortunes In
the same period of time. But there
Is one great advantage about the
trucking business. 1t brings in
money just at time when you need
it. 1t comes in at that time of
year when the banker has loaned
out all he has and there are hea-
Wy fertilizer bills to meet. We do
not advise anybody to go into the
trucking business. We advise them
to investigate it. If we were a
farmer, though, we would rather
plant some truck and some cotton
than to plant all cotton and no
truck or all truck and no cotton
We have noticed that farmers who
plant both CROPS on conservative
scale alw ays have cash money on
hand the year round.
