ABAND0NS 0NE-CR0P SYSTEM
Southern Farmers Are Being Taught
Sueeess-Adopt "Hay. Hogs and
Hominy" Slogan.

With assurance that the South has
at last needed the hay, hogs and
hominy" slogan, abandoned the one
crop system, and set about earnestly
to diversity her crops. southern
boards of trade and commercial and
industrial organizations of all kinds
are busy advising the farmers how
to adjust themselves to these new con-
ditions. says an Atlanta dispatch.
Editors, iucators and lecturers
have dinned into the ears of the
farmers the idea that the South can
grow as fine quality of hay as the
West. With this idea in view an in
vestigation was recently made. The
farmers asserted there was no EIar-
ket Tor the peavine hay.
The commission grain merchants
were then moved on. They acknowl-
edged that they did not care to buy
peavine hay. and gave their reasons.
IL was not cured properly, and, in
addition, possessed a fattening quail
ity which made 1t unsuitable for
work animals. AS result the South
has now a propaganda of education
on how to cure and bale hay.
A rather unique plan for improv
ing the grade of southern cattle is
being urged, and to this idea the farm
ers have taken readily.
The county commissioners Of every
county in every southern state are
urged to purchase a thoroughbred
sire of one of the best breeds OF cat
tie for the free use Of the farmers
of the country.
Along this same line of diversifi
cation it is also proposed that ever.
