SUCCESSFUL FARMER
TELLS HOW He ROTATES
CROPS and GETS RESULTS
Jeln Hitch Of Blunt County Says 70
Man should Undertake TO Farm
Without Good systeF1 Of Rota-
tioh-Llve stock Play Inn
portant Part,

John Hitch, Of BlOunt county, Is one
q the most successful farmers IN Ten
nesSee. Hundreds Of farmers from
surrounding communities and coun-
ties visit his farm each year to study
his methods Of rotation and to see his
splendid crops and livestock.
Last year when the East Tennessee
Farmers Convention held its annual
meeting he addressed the farmers on
the subject Of Livestock and Crop
Rotation"
Mr.. Hitch stated that he started out
with small farm, feeling that farm
Ing wasn't dumping ground but an
industry made up of real men engaged
in a great business, and an ambition
to be good farmer. His farm had
lot of gullies and most of it was very
poor, he said. So he saw at once that he
must do something to improve the soil
and at the same time stop the wash
ing. He said he knew that manure
would build up the land so he planned
system Of crops conducive to live
stock farming. More land was bought,
increasing the size of his farm to 100
acres which was divided into seven
fields of equal size.
After trying out several different
rotations for a period Of ten years he
finally settled on the following sys-
tenn: Two years clover and grass
one year corn one year wheat and as
soon as wheat is taken off, prepare
ground, manure, lime and sow barley;
then back to clover and grass.
Mr.. Hitch stated that this rotation
suits him better as 1t gives more leis-
ure, does not require too much plOw-
ing, leaves plenty Of roots and vege-
table matter to keep the land from
washing and gives an opportunity for
lining the soil He said that livestock
played an important part in his rota-
ton. When he first started farming,
he stated that he did not keep much
livestock, but soon he bought some hill
land on which cattle were kept during
the summer, bringing them to the farm
for the winter. He says that more
feed means more cattle on his farm
and that cattle makes it possible to
grow more feed.
According to Mr.. Hitch, no man
ought to undertake to farm in Tennes-
see without a we'll balanced system Of
farming and by this he means the
growing of several different crops In
rotations for livestock production
His advise to the Tennessee farm
ers is to cut the farm into fields OF
equal size, rotate crops, keep the kind
of livestock best suited to existing
conditions and keep at it. By doing
this he says the farmer will make
living and his family will be content
ed and happy.
In reference to the East Tennessee
Farmers Convention Mr. Hitch stated
that it had done more for the develop
ment of agriculture than any other or
ganlzation in East Tennessee and that
it had been q great help to him He
urged the farmers to attend the con-
vention each year as well as other
farmers meetings and take home from
them the many lessons and put them
into practice. BY doing this Mr.. Hitch
said that Tennessee could be made to
blossom like a rose which can only be
done by putting systems into farm
operations.
