are goin gto risk planting tobacco
instead OF cotton. The new sections
sold tobacco early last year before
the prices slumped and do not realize
how badly prices dropped. In view
OF all these things we repeat that the

believe that hits Is the best policy

inyarlable rule In the counties that
depend on the money crop, whether
cotton or tobacco, the percentage of
tenancy Is high and Increasing and
the number OF mortgaged farms is
excessive. On the other hand. in the
counties where there is no money
crop but where the people have fed

. FARM NOTES



This Is year when every acre pos
sible should be planted to soil build
ing crops OF some kind. Feeds are
hieh-priccd and SO are fertilizers and
the man who grows these instead OF
buying them will be laying the firm
est kind Of foundation for a future
prosperity.
ono OF the marks OF the success
ful farmer is the ability to produce 20
the maximum possible extent OF the
crops that feed the land. the family
and the livestock: and on the other
hand. the mark OF the mortgage COW
cred farm is generally a ruinous ad-

forgets that tat soils. fat stock and
ample living for the family should be
the primary considerations.
Let's see where we can use the
soil building crops TO advantage, 1st.
there come that cat and wheat fields
wheer the crops will be harvested in
May and June The man who fails
Of profit, for the feed and soil fertil-
to have a crop OF peas, beans, or clo-
yer after thees crops OF small Frain
is simply neglecting the biggest
source OF profit. for the feed and the
soil fertility that come from such a
crop often mean more per acre than
the grain crops.
Then. not single acre OF corn
should be laid by without having
peas sowed in the middles. or in
the southern part OF the cotton belt
velvet beans may be planted about
the time the corn Is planted, or just
after corn field without peas
beans. or peanuts, for soil building
and fall and winter feed is seldom
returning more than one-half the net
profit that II should.
Then this fall, from seed saved
during the next two months. every
cotton middle should be seeded tC
clover or vetch.
Plant the legumes everywhere thii
year. II you have the seed so mucl
the better: but II necessary, buy

more profitable. The next fall, &
cotton is low or high in price yo,
will be largely independent, becaus'
