DON'T GO TOBACCO CRAZY

Your county agent was very muci
impressed with an editorial In the
February LIST issue of the Southern
Agriculturist, so he ran his Office
scissors around it and here it is for
every farmer to read and think over:
Tobacco prices keep on reaching
new heights and breaking old rec
ords. The farmer who raised a good
crop OF good tobacco last year GER
tainly made money, whatever may
have been the lot of the farmer Who
grew grain or fed live stock.
But because this is true. let us
not lose our sense Of proportion or
Siorget the fundamentals of good
farming. The demand for tobacco
Is likely to remain good for q year
or two; but large increase in the
, supply is to be looked for. Many
farmers Who have been growing to-
bacco are planning to increase their
acreage. and the crop, is being plant
cd BY many farmers who have not
been growing It. There is danger
here-a big crop might easily send
the price down below the cost of
production.
The farmer who has found tobac-
co a good money crop can safely
plant II again this year--if he plants
1t as money or surplus crop only.
He is taking a dangerous risk IL he
plants SO much tobacco that he can
not raise the wheat and corn, the
hay and truck. the hogs and cattle
he needs for his own use. The only
safe farming is that which makes
certain of the farmers living first
of all; and the farmer who expects
to buy his living out of the proceeds
of q tobacco crop is taking q gamb-
ler's chance. Tobacco in modera-
ton is all right: but this is no time
to go tobacco crazy.
Lincoln Said Ii
The men upstream go down the
creek fishing for luck. The men
down the creek 60 up stream for ex-
actly the same reason. In the edi-
torial columns of the Southern Ag-
riculturist the following item
touches upon this subject:
have just run across a little
preachment Of Abraham Lincoln's
that is worth passing on. 1t is es-
pecially deserving of attention from I
the folks who are always chasing
the promised land or always think
Ing about what they could do IL
they were only somewhere else. He
said: III you intend to go to work.
there is no better place than right
where you are; IL you do not intend
10 go to work, you cannot get along
anywhere"

TO MY GRANDCHILDREN.
What makes me love my Babies so?
Go ask uhe mountains capped with
STOW,
Their sides all SCARED with seams,
Ask tie rivers as they downward flow,
In every widening streams.
Yes ask the mountains why they
th.ust
Their Jagged peaks into the snow,
And ask the rivers why their streams
All downward flow.
The lefty mountains thus reply,
Vast Commissions made us So
The Rivers answer Gravity;
CompeIs our streams to downward
flow"
But WY the vast CONFUSION heaved,
The m Mountains high above the plain,
Why gravity the streamlet seized,
And drew it swelling to the main?
I or natures law.
Yes natures law the mountain raised
And tossed its peaks into the snow.
1t seized the brook at mountain foot
And made mighty river flow.
And ne lures law my precious one,
Since first from Heaven you came to
me,
Has caused my heart with love to glow
And filled my life with ecstacy.
Compared with my love the mountains
higl
Dwindla to little hills.
And mighty rivers wide and deep
Shrink into scanty rilIs.
So great our mutual love my child
1t finds the earth itself too small
And seeks beyond the Sun and Stars,
It's source the God OF all
