TENNESSEE FARM NEWS

"The safest seed to SOW is chat
produced in the community, regard
less of whether the crop was poor or
good" says ]. G. McAmis, crop spec
ialist, Extension Service, University
of Tennessee. Farmers in many
parts of the state are much dissatis-
fled with yields of wheat from the
1922 CROP" he states. They are dis.
appointed, not only in the yields, but
in the quality of the grain. Every
year that this condition occurs farm.
ers are inclined to attribute it to
poor seed. They, therefore, hesitate
to SOW the seed produced in a bad
year for the following crop. In many
cases an effort is made to find wheat
outside the county or the state, and
often change of variety is sought.
On the whole, this is no doubt mis-
take.
There is always a danger of i'm
porting seed from a distance, par
ticularly if it is of an untried va
riety In the majority of cases the
farmer should search out the clean
GSt oSCu LlAdl liE EdH 1lllQ ANU IL
necessary, reclean it and treat it for
smut. In case of damaged seed, it
should be tested for termination and
the rate of seeding made accordingly.
Wheat does not cross-fertilize as
does corn or rye and, therefore, the
type remains the same and the yield
ing power does not ''run out" as is
often supposed. 1t is not intended to
hold that damaged seed is as good
for sowing as sound, plump seed, but
it is true that homegrown seed of
poor quality may greatly out yield an
seed Of high quality.
Fulcaster is undoubtedly the most
consistent tyielder in good seasons
and bad that is known in the state.
Stoner is practically the same thing.
In occasional seasons other varieties

SOME OF THE WHY'S OF
A 0NE-CR0P COUNTRY

There are those who have been in
cllned TO fret because certain parts of
the South has depended solely upon
cotton as a source of cash. So far as
cotton farmers failed to grow at home
the major part of the supplies needed
/ to run the place, the complaints were
largely justified. Beyond that point
however, there are two sides to the
question. When a farmer has done
everything he can do, all the fretting
IN the world can hardly Justify his
doing differently.
There are three good reasons for
farmers in many sections of the South
relying largely on the cotton for cash.
~ Cotton production required a min
mum investment in equipment, credit
could not be arranged and some cash
was certain to be forthcoming. (2)
Neither the capital nor credit required
could be provided in a great many
eases for the production of other crops
or livestock. 60 Satisfactory mar
kets were not available for other
crops or livestock.
Cotton today is not the certain
crop that it once was. The hazards
Of the boil weevil, added to the haz-
ards of weather and prices, are max
Ing cotton credits risky. Therefore
something must be done.
Markets are rapidly being brought
to our doors through cooperative
action. The county agents have
shown US the way to market with our
one or three or Is hogs through the
channel of cooperation. They have
done the same for US with cattle and
chickens and eggs and sweet pota-
toes and many other things. We
have known all the while that we
could grow these things, but we had
poor market facilities.
Now, that the market question IS
found to be capable of settlement.
the other great obstacle looms up.
The lack of sufficient working CAPT
tai is one of the important factors
that has held us to cotton in the past.
Cooperation will provide a market
for hogs, but to produce hogs at
profit we must Craze them. To Craze
them, we need fences and fences cost
money Cows must be bought and
feed grown if cream is to be sold.
Irish and sweet potatoes require a
large investment in seed and ferti-
lizers.
But it is said, "where there's will.
there's a way" Good farmers are
finding the way by starting in a
small way. They are starting with
what they have and using it to make
more with which to develop further.
Some are milking three or four cows
and selling the cream that can be
spared. Soon they will have more
feed and can buy more cows. Some
are growing one or two hogs more
than are needed for home use. CO.
operative sales open the way to mar
ket for them. Soon they will have
more fences, grow more grazing
crops and produce more hogs. IN
other words, many cotton farmers
have before them the Job of growing
the capital with which to provide the
equipment needed for a more diversi-
fled farming business.
It seems that about the only thing
to fret about is the fact that growing
the capital with which to operate is
rather slow Progressive.
