Looks good, doesn't it? The above
is statement of facts. Mr.. Carroll
has been following this plan for a
number of years and finds it so far
superior to any other that he is con-
templating increasing the acreage
cultivated in the above manner.
Discussing the manner of cultiva-
ton followed, Mr.. Carroll said that
he sowed the oats in the fall of the
year during the month of September,
using Cole furrow drill and mod
crate quantity of good fertilizer.
Upon this crop being gathered in
May the bottom land was Immediate
ly planted in corn, which will make
so bushels to the acre. The upland
was sown down in COW peas and sorg-
hum for hay crop. This will pro-
duce fully two tons to the acre.
Mr.. Carroll grows some cotton,
producing bale to the acre upon the
land devoted to the staple. He esti-
mates that this crop costs S35 per
than s35, or about one-half the
amount realized from the grain
crops.
The experience of Mr.. Corroll will
be of especial value to farmers of
Cherokee county at this time if they
will only heed his advice, which is to
reduce the acreage given cotton and
increase the grain crops. "The out
look now is that grains will be more
valuable next year than ever before
says Mr.. Carroll, while cotton may
remain at low price for some time
to come. It will be unreasonable for
