DIVERSIFIED FARMING
SATISFIES THE SOUTH
WHAT ONE COUNTY DID WHEN
THE BOIL WEEVIL STOPPED
THE RAISING OF COTTON.

The following article from the Ma
rietta Journal telling what has been
done in Mississippi county under
boil weevil conditions is similar to
the situation here in Terrell county
where the boil weevil has been for
years. The farmers of the county are
in a more prosperous condition than
ever before. The production of cot
ton has been reduced 40 per cent,
but that loss is made up many times
by the production of $1,000,000
worth of peanuts, velvet beans in
large quantities, the shipment of
more than 100 car loads of hogs and
cattle every year. Besides, the far
mers are now raising supplies, which
they did not do before. Says the Ma
rietta Journal:
when the boil weevil appeared in
the South and made cotton growing
Improbable the general opinion was
that a great calamity had befallen
the cotton growing states, but farm
ers of Pontotoc county, Miss, now
believe that the pest was a blessing
| in disguise. Several years ago the
weevil forced the farmers of this
community into diversified farming,
and as a result the county is now far
richer than it ever was when cotton
was king. TIL agricultural and live
stock interests have undergone a re-
markable change in the past four
years, and much of it may be attrib-
uted to the educational work and zeal
of the local county agent.
Before the appearance of the boil
weevil the rich valley lands of the
county often produced bale of cot
ton an acre. In 1915 the county
made $500 bales of cotton, which
was an average crop before the boil
weevil appeared. This crop of cotton
averaged II cents a pound, and yield
ed to growers $522,500. In 1916 the
boil weevil caused cotton production
to drop to 1900 bales. This was sold
at 17% cents a pound, the total be-
ing S159,750. In that year it is es-
timated that $150,000 worth of food
and feed was brought into the coun-
ty. Cotton being their only crop this
left the farmers $9,750 after paying
for the imported foodstuffs. That
year it seemed as if every business in
terest of the county would be bank
rupt, but the farmers began to put
, into practice some of the teachings
of the county agent, who told them
to diversity their crops and raise live
stock.
Until 1916 there never had been a
car of hogs, corn, melons, cane seed,
peanuts or popcorn shipped from
county, but during 1918 and the first
part of 1919 there were shipped from
the county 1O4 cars of hogs valued
at more than S250,000; 468 cars of
corn, valued at $567,376; 20 cars of
molasses, valued at little more than
$4,000 IS cars Of cane seed, valued
at nearly $4,000; Is cars of peanuts,
valued at nearly 100000; and cars
of popcorn, valued at more than $1O,-
600; as we'll as As cars of peas, Z
cars of velvet beans, $500 bales of
cotton (1918), 176 cars of cotton
seed products, Fl cars of cattle, %
mixed cars of cattle and hogs, 20
cars of eggs, cars of poultry, sew
eral cars of lumber and express ship
ments of eggs, poultry, butter and
cream, making total value of more
| than $2,500,000."

GEORGIA STOCKMEN
TO.EXPORT CATTLE
FRENCH COMMISSION NOW IN
THIS COUNTRY TO BUY DAIRY
CATTLE FOR SHIPMENT.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-There is
a tremendous opportunity for Geor-
gia cattle raisers to do an export
business at this time. A French COM
mission is now in the United States
and is anxious to get a line of what
the people of this country may do
along this line Immediately as will
be seen by the following statement
issued by the department of COM
merce today:
Following the recent arrival from
France of a committee to negotiate
for several thousand head of dairy
cattle, the United States department
of agriculture points out how breed
ers in this country may help the
farmers of France and likewise bene-
fit the animal industry of the United
States. The number of cattle to be
supplied will depend upon the ability
of American dairymen to furnish
sufficiently good animals at the prices
the commission is prepared to offer.
"The department has received mott
fcation, says the weekly news letter
of the department of agriculture,
that probably 5000 cows and heifers
will be purchased the first month,
and the number will be increased if
the animals are satisfactory
"This is the second purchase of
dairy cattle for the devastated re-
gions Of france; the first, last April,
consisted principally of 104 pure
bred and grade cows and pure bulls
purchased by the French high com
mission. That importation by France
was in the nature of a trial order.
Those cattle and the others which
will be obtained are to be used as
foundation herds for the devastated
sections of France"

EXPRESSION OF THANKS.

To our many friends: We wish to
thank you most heartily for the
many kindnesses shown US in our
recent trouble. Space here would not
permit our naming those who showed
every possible kindness, neither can
words express our appreciation, but
we do thank you from the depths of
our hearts and pray Gods richest
blessings upon you. Only those who
have passed through the same trial
of giving up a companion, who was
a companion indeed, or faithful,
devoted mother, can know how hard
it is, and how much it means to have
friends who are anxious to do every
thing possible to make the burden
lighter. Again thanking you all, and
praying God to reward you for what
you have done for us.
