PATRONIzE YOUR OWN LAND
Begin Investment In Farming Which
Will Most Nearly Sustain You
With HOMEGROWN Things.

Corn is going to be very high next
year. Hay will be high. hogs will be
high and cattle will be high. Cotton
will not be high next year.
II you are determined to raise cot
ton. then you had better raise enough
hogs, corn and hay to feed yourself
and your stock.
II you are financially able to get
along without growing any cotton,
there never was a better time than
now to begin an investment in live
stock and in that farming which will
most nearly sustain you with things
grown on the farm.
Patronize your own instead of the
farms in Iowa and Illinois. Cultivate
your own soil instead of paying some
body whom you do not know to cul-
tivate the soil which you have never
seen.-Memphis Commercial Appeal.

Different c0W.FEED RULES
No Two Cows With Big Records Ever
Received Same Rations-Proper
Balance 10 Most Desired.
CBy WALTER B. LEUTZ.)

By WALTER B. LEUTZ)
To a great extent each cow is a law
unto herself so far as the most de-
sirable grain for her to receive is con-
cerned, and it is as difficult to give
instructions for feeding a cow for high
production as it is to give exact in
structions for driving a two-minute
race horse.
So far as we know no two cows that
have made large records and have
been developed by different men ever
received the same ration, and We
doubt If any two developed by the
same man have ever received exactly
the same feed. The success of feed
er depends upon his ability to main
tain a proper balance between the
feeds that are rich in carbohydrates
and those that are rich in protein.
Other conditions also have to have
very careful attention. so 1t is abso-
lutely impossible to lay down any fixed
rules for feeding.
The secret Of success Is to a large
extent the ability to see trouble be-
fore you are into it, and thus be able
to avoid bad results. Good horse
sense and love for the work count for
more than anything else.

0NE.CR0P IDEA IN THE WEST
Apple Growers Realize That Plan 10
Faiiure-Diversified Farming is
Necessary to Success.

"One would hardly suppose that the
loss of a market to the cotton growers
of the South would have any effect up

state, but indirectly it has had" re-

while in Washington recently. Last
year was q poor year for the apple
growers of the Yakima valley and Of
the state as a whole. The market for
apples has been very disappointing.
1T Is just here that the cotton sit
uation In the South, which was the
subject of much publicity some weeks
ago, brought to the attention of some
of the Pacific coast farmers a fault
they themselves long have suffered
from-the one-crop idea. Particularly
in Washington and Oregon. and also in
Idaho and other states where apples
are grown, the orchardists found they
were much in the same situation as the
cotton growers, because of their fail
ure to diversity. The apple growers
now are beginning to realize that the
one-crop plan is a failure. as it is ev-
erywhere. Diversified farming Is nee
essary to success in agriculture.
THE possibilities of the soil in the
northwest are not limited to apples
In the Selah valley there has been for
some time considerable acreage Of
corn. and as much to the acre has been
produced as In any other grain Sec
ton. Hay and alfalfa grow abundant
ly, and the farmers are also coming to
see that that part of the United States
is well adapted to the raising of cattle.
So. you see, the lesson taught the
southern farmer by the European war
will have good effect everywhere by
teaching the American farmer that If
he is to be on the safe side he must
not confine himself to one crop, but
must diversity"
