AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION
BY DR. ANDREW NJ SOULE

tailed 1,156,7SS, Of which 674,S63
were classed as dairy animals.
Sheep were found on less than
5000 farms, the total number being
72,173. Goats were found on 1926
farms, tine total number being
11O,489. Swine were raised on $780,
500 farms, the number of head to-
falling 2,071,051. 1t would appear
from these figures that there has
been a great shrinkage in sheep as
compared with former years, ana
that TIE number of swine in Geor-
gia has decreased by 100000 head.
This is a most unfortunate situa-
ton. because we must depend on
swine more than any other class OF
stock to aid our people in making a
quick recovery from the damage
which the boil weevil has inflicted
during the past year.
The total value Of all our live
stock therefore appears to be $147,-
S13,S42. We need to add at least
S1OO, 1000 900 more to these values at
once. It will be necessary to do
this to put our agriculture in prop
err state of equilibrium. Our sales
of live stock products are not what
thew should be. We are credited
with producing 1,615,773 gallons OF
milk, 3O,257,153 pounds of butter
and practically no cheese. OF the
milk produced 7,389,966 gallons were
sold. Of the butter produced around
5000 900 pounds were sold.
The receipts from the sale of dairy
products in 1919 were $5,435,372.
This is a relatively small increase
,Nny-in6 rod
with our consumption demands. Our
neighboring state of Alabama is
making sixty-five or seventy million
dollars worth of dairy products. We
in Georgia have a long way to go
along the lines of dairy production.
Our state needs more Of these prod
ucts than Alabama because we have
a larger population. They have di-
versified their crop production IN our
neighbor state on account of the
damage which the boil weevil has
inflicted. One of the ways in which
they have added to their farm in.
come and also to the prosperity of
their landowners has been through
intensifying dairy production. Let
us take leaf out of our neighbor's
notebook. The gross value of our
OuuCIo, IIlSASaNaAAASo SAAOS~ ~
sumed to be produced on the farm,
was only around 100000 in 1919.
We should have at least a 400 per
cent increase in this business in or
der to make ourselves self-sustaining
and supply our homes and our chill,
dren with the necessary vitamines,
which are more satisfactorily provid-
ed through the medium of milk and
butter than in any other form. 1t
is no wonder that we have many
under-nourished children. In an en-
deavor to make up for the def
cheney of our milk and butter sup
ply we are eating too much meat
which is, of course. bad for us. A re-
adjustment of our dairy interests on
a basis approximating our needs

points Of view.
1t would appear that chickens were
kept on 278,0O4 of our farms in 1919
This represents S9.5 per cent of all
our farms. The number of chickens
was said to be 7,221,7SS, rct half
enough to supply our needs. The

, pend on fertilizer alone would be a
serious mistake. The figures cited
above indicate that the use Of fer
tilizers was increased during the last
decade by 1877 per cent. The ques-
ton naturally arises as to whether
we are simply depending on fer
tilizers to produce crops, or whether
we are using this additional plant
food intelligently. The plant food OF
itself cannot correct the errors in
our farm practice, and 1 am very
much afraid at times that we need
to give more attention to land prep
aration and cultivation, to seed Sc
lection, and to judicious crop man
agement than has been accorded in
the past. In other words, L think
we are endeavoring to increase our
yields by emphasizing one factor
when several must be considered IN
order to accomplish the desired end.
There were horses on practically
II 900 of our farms in 1919 and mules
ON 229,207 farms. The horses num-
bered 1O0,503 and the mules 4O6,35l
In other words, we had little bet

Lessons From the Census Report

Some very illuminating facts re-
lating to the agricultural progress
and development are set forth in the
census bulletin of agriculture as it
relates to Georgia. 1t would appear
from this statement that fertilizers
were purchased and used on over
$50, 900 of our farms in 1919. In 9TH
err words, 90.2 per cent of our farm
ers used commercial plant food I'M
der their crops. The value Of the
fertilizer was SAG, 196,434.
Feed was purchased by $3.50
farm owners in 1919. This repre-
scented an increase in this direction
Of IA per cent. Commercial feed of
some kind was bought and used on
some 27.9 per cent of our farms;
thus one-third of our farmers at
that time were paying tribute to
some other section for foodstuffs
they should have grown at home.
Every one realizes that commercial
fertilizers are essential to success
full crop production in Georgia. I
believe fertilizer should be used
literally and that probably well-bal-
anced rations will give us the best
results. At the same time, to de-
