LIBERTY FARMER MAKES 20
BALES ON 21 ACRES
Grccnville News.

Grecnville News.
Bub Smith, farmer who lives but
a short distance from Liberty on the
Easlcy Liberty highway has hung up
a Gotten record which may be unsur-
passed by any other farmer of the
Piedmont section. Mr. Smith who
operates a three-horse farm was in
Liberty seveal days ago and up to
that time had picked and ginncd 20
bales of cotton from 81 acres.
Mr.. Smith is what might be term
ed a modern as well as progressive
farmer He rotates his crops so that
cotton never is planted on the same
land two years in succession. Corn,
peas, clover and ether crops are also
grown to the best advantage In
addition to large quantity Of corn
and other crops, and with quantity
of cotton crop still to be gathered.
Mr.. Smith has already harvested 800
bL hels of peas.
Fifteen years ago Mr.. Smith pur-
chased the place where he now lives,
and which is considered as one Of
the model farms of this section. Hard
work and intelligent farming are said
to be the OILY recipes he has made
use Of in developing his farm to such
high state Of cultivation.
