The movement to plant more food crops, if not
less cotton is one of the most heartening signs Of
Georgas agricultural progress In every part of the
state keener interest is being taken in the production
of corn and other grains and forage Truck-garden-
ing is steadily, though somewhat slowly, developing.
The significant fact is that the farmers who are
adopting this policy are finding immediate and sub
stantial rewards.
From Bryan county, a particularly strik-
ing example. Mr. P. L. Bailey, according to the Sa-
vannah Morning News planted sixty of his
farm in potatoes and then, availing himself of
pert knowledge and intensive methods, set out to
see how abundant crop he could make. The re-
suit is that on this tract of land he has pro-
duced nine thousand barrels of potatoes, which are
twice as large as those commonly grown at this
son and far superior to the general yield of that
section.
The market value of his crop is forty thousand,
FIVE hundred dollars or six hundred and seventyhve
dollars an acre. sf
The News aptly comments that this proves there
is no need of the Georgia farmer going to Alaska
dig fortunes from the bosom of rhe earth. More
than that proves the practical value of scientific
methods of farming and the practical wisdom of
planting food crops
If this state is to become truly independent and
to reap its due of prosperity, it cannot de-
vote ALL a major portion of its soil. to the
production of so-called money crop and then pur-
chase it's food supplies from distant sections.
This truth it is encouraging to note, is being
more and more widely realized and such achieve
ments as that of the Bryan county potato crop will
hasten it's universal recognition.
