Make hay for the mules, horses, cat

hay has a high feeding value and is
very palatabe. All kinds of stock

Now is the time to overhaul the
mower and hay rake and get ready for
saving hay. Clean the hay lofts and
hay sheds and get the necessary hay
forks and, most important of all, make
arrangements for labor

cultivation has been singularly neg
lected until the average yield per
acre has fallen below the profit line
in many states. Even at the high
value per bushel allowed, the corn
crop in many of the southern states
does not pay living wage or fair
rent value for the land.
There is abundant proof that large
and profitable crops Of corn can be
produced In the south by the use or
the best seed and improved methods.
The planting of low.grade seed IN
shallow and impoverished seed bed
Is responsible in the main for deficient
yields and quality. However, to Sc
cure the best results, many reforms
must be made, such as better drain
age, an adjustment of distances be-
tween the rows and the stalks in the

PRODUCTION OF MORE COTTON
American Farmers Get But 100000
Bales on Acreage That Should
Yield 3o,ooo,oo0.
(By G.. II. ALFORDD

That the American growers produce
100000 bales Of cotton upon an
acreage that ought to produce 10000
600 bales is one of the striking state
ments made by the Washington Post
in an editorial upon the cotton crop of
1910.
If the facts are as set forth by the
Post the point is not that the south
should produce 100000 additional
bales of cotton upon the present area,
but that the area upon which the l2,-
100000 bales are produced should be
cut down nearly two-thirds. This
would give the farmers Of the south
ample room in which to produce many
other crops, the aggregate value of
which would exceed that of the cotton
crop.
The editorial Of the Post follows:
THE worlds annual production OF
cotton is estimated at 2O000,0OO bales,
Of which the planters of America grow
more than one.half, or about 100000
bales in the British provinces and de.
Tendencies are grown 5,500O00 bales,
though all Of It except the 100000
from Egypt is inferior in quality to the
American cotton. The price of the
staple and OF the fabric advances
year by year, which shows that the
production does not keep pace with
the consumption, and this, too, not,
withstanding the encouragement lent
70 the planter in the market return
for the seed that yielded from this
crop.
while It is true that not one.fourth
OF the cotton area Of the United
States has been subjected to the plow
and the hoe, It is nevertheless obvious
that If our country is long to hold the
supremacy in the growing of cotton,
old methods of cultivation must be
supplanted by the new A planter who
gets less than a bale Of lint from an
acre seeded to cotton ought to quit his
job, for he is not fitted for II. One
planter in Mississippi tho prairie re.
gion near the Alabama line in the
black bet--acquired an old wOrn-out
farm, and what with corn, peas, oats
and alfalfa he now has a plantation as
fertile as II was when the land was
virgin and his acres devoted TO cotton
yield him from a bale and a half to
two bales an acre.
MANY other farmers of that region
are pursuing the same methods with
like results A noble vocation Is that
OF the farmer, and profitable one, If
the farmer is ht for his job The
main secret Is the conservation of soil
and the second is intelligence Of tll.
age,
America grows l2,000O0O bales of
cotton annually on an area that ought
TO produce 3O.OOO,0OO bales and would
outdo that even If every cotton planter
knew how 10 grow cotton, and would
put bis brains to the plow."

GROWING OF BERMUDA GRASS
ExceIs Them All With Exception Of
AlfaIfa-Grows Rapidly and
Makes Best Pasture.

The experiment station at Stillwa-
ter, Okla, has issued Bulletin No. so
on bermuda grass, Write to the di-
rector Of the station at once for
copy
The grass was cut every week for
three years. The yield of the hay for
the first year was $3.50 pounds per
acre, with an average of 1917 per
cent. protein. The bulletin states that
in protein content Bermuda hay eX'
cells them all with the exception Of
one sample of alfalfa"
The following is summary of the
bulletins;
/. Bermuda grass grows rapidly, Is
the best pasture grass grown in the
southern states, and is particularly
suited to the climatic conditions Of
Oklahoma.
2. 1t makes a good lawn, prevents
land from washing, and grows on al.
most any soil
8, The most parctical method Of
planting bermuda grass is to set out
small pieces Of the sod.
A. This grass makes hay which Is
remarkably high in protein, being ex.
celled by but few hays.
5. The nutritive ratio Of bermuda
hay varies from 1906 to 1854
6. Bermuda hay is easily digested
and has no equal as a cheap feed for
cattle.
