ARE VERY CAREFUL FROM WHAT FIELD THEY SELECT SEEDS
 FOR PLANTING.
USING ONLY GRADED SEED
Use Machines That Separate All the Little Black Faulty Seed From the Good Ones-Care in Select
 ing All Seed.

Little Rock.--In telling of the inn pressions that he brought back from the recent tour of Georgia and the Carolinas conducted under auspices of the Arkansas Profitable Farming Blu reau of the Little Rock Board of Com merce, F. R. Ryan, planter of Shof- her, says that his attention was first attracted by the evidences of industry to be seen in the perfect cultivation of the fields
 T know that the thorough eultiva- tion that these farmers give their crops is responsible for much of their success" writes MT. Ryan. Their use of fertilizer impressed me as a wonderful stimulant to lands that had become poor through the one-crop system. was astonished at the beau tiful fields of cotton that l saw throughout the entire trip.
 T will take off my hat to the peo pie of the Carolinas as the best corn growers that l ever have been fortu nate enough to meet. The impression that l got was that those people are accomplishing these wonderful results through up to date farming methods, industry, and liberal use of fertilizer.
 "I was much impressed by what I learned about the way these farm CTS handle the cotton seed that they plant. l was informed that they have machines that separate all the little black, faulty seed from the good ones. They never plant seed that has not been graded and they plant nothing but the best. They are very careful about the fields from which they se- lect their seed for planting. They save seed from the best matured cot ton am satisfied that the care in the selection of both corn and cot. ton seed for planting is one of the factors that contributes to their sue cess.
 From the conversations that l had with these farmers found that every one seemed to thoroughly appreciate the fact that the land must be replen ished from year to year with some kind of soil building crop. They show evidences of their belief by the fact that every field of corn has velvet beans, soy beans. cowpeas or some other crop to build up the soil. No one riding over the country as We did and seeing the beautiful, well-kept farms can fail to admire the people who had the thought and the progress sive enterprise that made all this pos sible.
