Diversified PLAN IS URGED
Most Successful Farms Are Those
That Have From Two TO- Four
Major Sources Of Income.

In most cases where studies on the
profits In farming have been made,
particularly in our oldest agricultural
districts, such studies indicate that
the most successful farms are those
which have from two to four major
sources of income; 1. e., they have
we'll balanced and diversified bust
ness.
In certain instances it may pay bet
ter to have only one enterprise, but
usually when one crop pays much bet
ter than all others the production OF
1t increases rapidly. and soon the
price falls to tho point where other
crops or products are equally as prof
table
Diversified farming is often con-
fused with farming where there is
little of everything and not much OF
anything. Either extreme lessons the
chances of success. When the
price Of certain crops is very low
then live stock usually become desir-
able. However, If the returns per AMI
NAL are poor cash crops even at a
low price are essential.
A well-balanced business insures
against losses and provides a much
better utilization of the labor and
equipment.

PROGRAM OF "SAFE FARMING"
Outline Of Plan Recommended by
Government Specialists to Secure
Safety in Cotton Belt.

A program of safe farming" for the
South is outlined in a circular which
the United States department of agri-
culture has sent to bankers, business
men, and farmers in the cotton states.
The history of agriculture in the
South, it is said, has been one Of lean
years and fat years. Short crops and
high prices have almost invariably
been followed by big crops and low
prices and, in consequence. the farm
er has experienced much distress.
The increased attention which has re-
Gently been given to supporting the
people upon the land has already re-
suited in much good, but there is
some danger. it is pointed out, that
with the price of cotton rising there
will be a tendency for farmers to re-
turn to the old system of gambling on
cotton. II the people of the South
produced their own living, the cir
cular points out, it would steady the
whole system and keep the boat from
rocking. The safety measures recon-
mended are as follows:
/. Produce a home garden for
every family on the farm. the year
round, paying special attention to a
plot of Irish or sweet potatoes suffi-
cient to supply the family with food
OF this character. Where feasible,
have patch of sorghum or other cane
to produce strip for the family.
-
support all Of the people on the farm
and the live stock. with absolute
safety
8. Produce the necessary oats and
other small grain to supplement the
corn as food. Pay attention to win.
ter grazing.
4. Produce hay and forage from
some forage crop. sufficient to supply
all of the live stock on the farm Use
legumes such as clover, cowpeas. vel
vet beans, soy beans and alfalfa fol-
the production of hay and to enrich
the soil with nitrogen and humus.
5. Produce the meat necessary tc
supply the people. through increased
attention to poultry and hogs. espe
cially. Plan to increase gradually the
number of cattle and other live stock
so as to have a sufficient number tc
consume the waste products of the
farm and make the waste lands pro
ductive.
6. After all of these things have
been amply provided for. produce cot
ton for the market.

CUT OUT MIDDLEMEN's TOLLS
overproduetion Of Cotton and Low
Prices Appear Probabie-Make
Living on Farm First.

(By J. z. GREEN In Progressive Farmer.)
We often refer to the fact that
the handlers of farm products get
more out of the wealth which 10
created on the farm than those who
grow these products, which IL true.
There Is one way the southern farm
er can cut out some useless middle
mems tolls. and that is to produce
some more things needed at home
right on the farm where they are con-
sumed. Then there will be no un-
necessary handling and therefore no
needless tolls to pay to the handlers.
1t will always be true that transpor-
tation and distribution of a certain
per cent Of farm products will be nee
essary, but why should farmer place
himself in position where he must pay
needless expenses of distribution. as
he does when he raises cotton or to-
bacco, which must be taxed with the
cost of distribution and spectators
profits, that are always deducted from
the price Of the cotton or tobacco, and
then buy with the money received
food products that must also be taxed
by the handlers and toll-takers? Why
not raise the food products needed at
home, and thereby get them at net
cost?
The economic error, which stands
out more conspicuously than all 9TH
ers among southern farmers, is the
craze for making so-called money
crops with western-bred mules and
! expensive commercial fertilizers.
bought on time, with the idea OF
swapping cotton and tobacco for
money and then to swap the money
for food products-if there is any left
after paying for the mules and ferti'
lizers. The whole scheme comes from
the idea of making money" on the
farm instead of making living the
first consideration. The whole scheme
has its foundation in speculative farm
ing instead of real farming. and the
results of our agricultural industry
have been disappointing because the
profits are absorbed in the unneces
sary handling Of a large per cent OF
the output Of our farms. and along
with the one-crop system comes the
deterioration of the soil.
The 1915 crop Of cotton was small
because of the existence of abnormal
ly low prices for cotton when this
crop was planted. and also because
time merchants in the South were
not able to furnish crop-iien tenants
fertilizers to apply heavily under the
crop. With the price of cotton swing
ing back to normal and with pro
spective lucent cotton at planting
time next spring. crop-lien tenant!
and time merchants will take anothel
plunge in cotton. In view Of this con
dition let me appeal. especially to thu
organized farmer. to keep on SOWING
wheat, oats and rye and not taxi
chances in competition with crop-lieI
labor. We can at least go no further
with safety, than to produce limite'
amount Of cotton as net surplus
and IL we produce it only as a SUI
plus on homegrown mules and foo
products we will have at least som
economic advantage in our favor.

Patronize Home Markets.

There is more profit In selling

cents to get the two. The same rule
holds good in everything sold.
