SUBSTITUTES FOR COTTON
Success Of Girls Canning Clubs Leads
Farmers TO Plant Vegetables.

WASHINGTON. December 2o-The
success OF experiments by 33342 mem
bers OF girls garden and canning clubs
organized in the South by the Depart
ment OF Agriculture has prompted
many Southern farmers to plant vege-
tables suitable for canning purposes
as substitutes for cotton. This was
characterized In statement issued to-
night by the department as an impor-
tant step toward solution OF the prob
lem of reducing the cotton acreage.
The statement said:
Daughters OF Southern farmers, who
have been members OF the depart
ment's garden and canning clubs have
been able to give their fathers prac-
ticnl demonstrations of the value OF
crop diversifcation during the pres-
cnt bad cotton year. The actual prod
ucts which the girls have put up are
proving an invaluable asset In many
farm houses. where the cotton crop
has not brought the customary returns.
and many farmers are now substituting
whole acres of onions and tomatoes in
place of cotton, after seeing the sue
