TENNESSEE VALLEY FAVORING SOY BEANS
 AND JAPAN CLOVER

Auburn, March Special. )-Soy beans and lespedese Gapanese clover> will be two popular crops in the Ten nessee valley this year, according to District Agent L T. Quinn, who has returned from trip into several cOun- ties of that section.
 County agents in the Tennessee val ley have been promoting these crops for some time and evidently their ef- forts have been successful. because a seedsman at Huntsville has already sold 2e 900 bushels of lespedeza seed and is now turning down orders amounting to several hundred dollars each day be- cause he has not the seed to fill them.
 In practically every county in the Tennessee valley the farmers are Co., operatively ordering, through their county agents, soy beans in carload lots. which indicates that the soy bean crop for that particular section will ce n most important crop in 1921. These two crops mean richer land, more feed and pastures, which in turn mean suc- cessful diversified farming.

COOSA CATTLE SLUMP
Farmers In That Section Hurt By
 Low Prices

Rockford, March S.-(Special)- Coosa county, in the western section, is by nature adapted to cattle raising, being provided with ans abundan, water supply and large cane breaks, where the cattle can be kept the year round and has for the past few years been one of the leading cattle counties of the state. Owing to the decisive de- cline in the cattle market during the last year, however, there will be few cattle raised in this section this year. The cattle raisers claim that on account of the exceedingly low> price offered for cattle, they cannot realize profit. Last year the cattle raisers, expecting high prices to continue, invested large sums in the cattle business, and were forced to sell at sacrifice.
