DIVERSIFIED FARMING.
BY Hervey Whitfield.

Almost every citizen of Tennessee
delights to boast of the fact that
everything necessary for the support
of man and beast can be grown sue
cessfully in this State. 1t has been
said that if a wall encircled the State
so as to prevent the importation of
all products of the soil, that Tennes-
scans could live AID prosper Every
one who is conversant with the soils
of the state will not deny the fact
that the above statement is true, and
in the face of such facts it seems
necessary to import from other states
large quantity of the necessities
of life. There is no need for such
conditions to exist if the farmers
would change their methods of farm
ing. If every farmer would resolve
to diversity his crops and grow those
things that are necessary for the
sustenance of his family and stock
there would be a great revolution in
their financial condition. In the to-
bacco and cotton sections it is la
mentally true that many men neglect
the growth of corn and hay, for the
purpose of raising a larger crop of
their staple, and then use a large
portion of the proceeds for purchas-
ing at an exhorbitant price those ar
ticles that could and should have
been grown at home. During the
past spring it was almost a daily
scene that wagons would deliver to-
bacco to the GAINESVILLE market and
return home loaded with hay, corn
and bacon, thus laying out all of the
profit on the tobacco what might
have been grown at home. The
northern farmers, many Of whom
have accumulated wealth, have
made their money largely by first sup
plying their home with what was
needed, and selling the surplus to
farmers in the South; and Tennes-
scans have been large purchasers. 1t
is impossible for farmers to attain the
highest degree Of living unless they
raise a sufficiency of all products for
home consumption and then prepare
for your money crop, and when our
people with all necessary resources
for growing all crops fully realize
the Importance of adopting such
methods, they will soon recognize the
financial value of such work.

PROF.. PHILLIPs, aRRowN Girl. .

PROF. PHILLIPS "BRoWN GIRL"
Nashville is not only the home Of
accomplished musicians, teachers and
the like, but it has sprung into prom
inence for turning out exceptionally
unique artists. The recent produc-
ton from the pen of Prof. Jasper T.
Phillips, known as the Brown Girl"
is the comment of the season. It is
a pen drawing, and while it does not
resemble any particular individual, it
shows the remarkable advancement
and the splendid evoiution the race
is making in the beauties to be found
among the females of the race, and
while the pen drawing of Prof. Phil
lips only portrays the Imagination Of
Brown Girl" it can be easily TAX
en- for an original photograph of
some of the beauties to be found in
sunny Tennessee, Prof. Phillips, al
though not boasting as an artist, has
given some splendid pen drawings
and deserves to be in a class with the
celebrated pen artists of to-day.
