A good price for cotton this fall
will not tempt the man who has
tried intelligent diversification
with livestock and who has grown
something COR his own family
table. Such men, because of the
opportunity to rotate crops and
build up their soil, says Farm and

small acreage than the all-cottoD
farmer who plants the same fields
year after year with the same
crop.
