 The South has many advantages as an Agricultural and Live Stock Coun- . try. There is a ready market with high prices for beef dairy and poultry products, and grain, land Is cheap, the climate is mild; the South has a long growing seasOu-tw0 and some times three crops can be produced on , the same soil during the same year; the South Is adapted Co tho growing of a variety of hay and forage crops root crops corn, oats and other grains. Beef can be produced at a | less cost than in the northern states. ln the South the rainfall Is aauu- daut everywhere there are stream. and springs which are Of great bc.eG. to the stockmau.
 The people of the South are awake ing to the opportunities oueTed by these natural advantages.
