A GEORGIA FARM THAT WON
SUCCESS BY OVERSEEING
soULE President Ga State COLLEGE or Agriculture

Given typical Piedmont farm,
with it's characteristic red clay soil.
operating primarily as a cotton plan
tation, what can be done with it? In
other words, can this farm be chang
ed over to diversified proposition
with profit and success? Many
land owner is confronted by just such
situation, and hence the topic is
of general interest. That an under
taking of this character can be sue
cessfully accomplished has been clear
ly demonstrated at the College farm
at Athens. 1t has been the policy
to reclaim new area of land each
year. Unsatisfactory crops are raised
on much of this land the first year
or two after an attempt to reclaim
it because of its eroded condition and
its bad physical state. An increase
in the herds of live stock, thereby en-
abling larger amounts of yard manure
to be made available each year and
its return to the soil, has resulted in
improving the land and increasing it's
crop-yielding powers Three hundred
and fifty acres of land are now under
the plow.
The farm had been abused for wears
1t was without satisfactory buildings
or suitable equipment Of implements
or live stock. 1t was determined at
once to organize it on the basis of
stock farm, but without overlooking or
neglecting the possibilities of cultiyat-
ing cotton and the varied crops adapt
ed to the soil and climatic conditions
of the Piedmont area. OF necessity the
equipment could only be slowly pur-
chased and assembled The first I'M
dertaking was to organize small dairy
herd and offer milk for sale. The re-.
ceipts from the herd the first year
amounted to $1,124,44, and the sales
of live stock to $72.29. The value of
the cotton and the cotton seed was
S469.72, making total turnover of the
farm $1,799.37. This happened in the
college year 1907-1908. Nine years la
ter the sales from the dairy herd
amounted to $6,7OO.41, showing a
steady and uniform increase through
out the period in question. The sales
OF live stock increased from S72.29 to
$5,O56.O2, showing an even greater in
crease. The sales from cotton and
cotton seed have varied somewhat &C.
cording to the season and the price
OF the staple. The first year the crop
brought $469.62, and in other years
it has sold for as much as $1,831.83.
The total receipts have varied from

The efforts of Theodore
Roosevelt to align the workers oil
the country against the eight
hour law are being hailed with

$1,799.37 the first year to $11,O026s
in 1915-1916. The total receipts from
the dairy herd in nine years have
amounted to $43,76S21, from the sales
Of live stock to $13,37795, and from the
sales OF cotton and cotton seed $40,
S19.6S, making total of $69,572.99 fol-
the nine-year period.
No profit was made from the farm
for the first three years because of the
lack of equipment and the impover
ished condition of the soil, but since
1910-1911 the receipts from the farm
show net return of nearly $1S,0000C
over the actual outlay. phis must be
regarded as satisfactory demonstra
ton of the possibilities of building uI
WORKOUT plantation lands through the
institution of a diversified farm prac
tice in which live stock husbandry is
strongly emphasized. Remember, that
it was necessary to start in and re
claim practically all, the land now un
der the pillow, considerable part OF
which had been thrown out for a
number of years and it was, therefore
badly washed and eroded.
A great variety of crops have been
raised successfully. Cereals are grown
each year and a crop of 1000 to 5000
bushels of oats obtained. Corn is rails
ed in considerable quantity, the stove1
being used for roughage. Cowpeas
and sorghum, oats and vetch, oats
rye and crimson clover, Sudan grass
and other forage crops have been
grown on considerable areas and cut
and cured as hay. Kaffir corn and
sorghum have been grown together
and used primarily for the produc
ton of silage, several hundred tons
of which is made each year. Cow,
peas have been used as soil builders
and turned under whenever practica
Bile. A considerable area of land has
been devoted to alfalfa which has
been cut from four to five times a
year.
A rotation of crops has been estab,
lished. Oats have been planted after
cotton and corn and followed, as a
rule, by cowpeas sown alone or in
combination with some forage crop to
be made into hay or turned under for
soil improvement. Cotton and corn
have been grown after cowpeas. A
three-year rotation, including the four
crops, has been the object kept in
view. 1t Is conservatively stated that
the lands now under cultivation are
worth $40 an acre more for agricultu.
raj purposes than when the work of
Improvement was first undertaken.

PAPER MILLS TO USE NEW
WOODS

Washington, October las
the result of studies which have
been made at the Forest Produc
ton Laboratory on methods of
handling wood chips suitable for
paper pulp, it is announced that
Wisconsin paper companies are
now negotiating with the rail
roads for shipment to their factor
les OF experimental train. loads of
chips of western woods adapted
to paper making.
Previous Investigations by the
Forest Service have demonstrate
ed that good grades of paper can
be made from a number of west
ern woods. The experts now es-
innate that some of these woods,
when cut into chips and dried and
baled, can be delivered to the
mills in Wisconsin at a very small
advance over the cost of chips
made from local timber. If a ia
Vorablc freight rate can be obtain
ed, they say, the great quantity
OF pull pwood on the National For
eSts should prove to be a consid-
cradle factor in supplying favor
ably located paper mills with the
necessary raw material. In Wis
consin alone, it is stated, there is
an annual market for over 100000
cords of pulpwood.
