Why Was Fertilizer Higher At
Farm Bureau Than At Other
Places?

This is a question that has beer
asked many times and we feel thai
many would like to hear 1t answered
The answer to the above question is
as follows:
Last fall Mr. j. W. Willis, State
Ag 1T for Mississippi, and the Pres
ident of the State Farm Bureau at
tended the National Farm Bureau
Convention at Atlanta, Ga. V bile
there they learned that farmer Of
Illinois, Missouri and several othe:
States north of as were buying
acid phosphate at $11.O0 per ton,
and they asked why Mississippi
farmers were required to pay such
high prices for acid phosphate when
farmers of other states were getting
at at such a low price. The re-
ply Of the phosphate manufacturers
was that the low prices 90
tanned by other states was due to the
fact that they bought in large
volume through their farm organiza
tons. In other words the representa-
tive of State Farm Bureaus in the

SOY BEANS.

AS hay crop there is nothing
SUPERIOR to the soy bean. AS a hog
crop it has no equal. At the same
time it is one of our greatest soil
builders.
Plant your beans and corn in the
same row. If you have no double
hopper plant your corn first then
double back with your bean plane or
your corn planter and put the beans
on top of the corn, be sure to plant
YOUR beans last as they need to be
planted very shallow.
Now men, there is no need to argue
that this won't work. 1t has been
working in all parts of Mississippi Tor
several wears. Mr.. A. L. Simmons
planted soy beans in almost very row
of his corn last year and he states
that he made nearly as much from
niqs fattened on soy beans as he
made from the corn. Col. j. S. Stone
has grown soy beans for several years
for hav and he thinks soy beans IS
equal to alfalfa as hay and the ton
mage is immense.
We bought car load of soy bens.
About 200 bushels have already been
sold and like the velvet beans most
of them have been sold outside OF the
county. Now men wake up. Don't
let this chance go by. We bought
these beans that you might have a
chance to get them. You know our
capital stock is very limited. we
can't keep them, they must pass on
and let something else take their
place. Today we shipped 10 bushels
to Iuka and received wire from
Jackson asking quotation on 10
bushels. You have first chance at
the mand don't let the farmers of 9TH
er counties get ahead of you.

Turner Explains
Feytiliser Prices

Estates above referred to would buy
the fertilizer for the whole State.
Our representative felt that they
had discovered a valuable plan and
hurried home to see what could done
in Mississippi. Immediately upon
their return they wrote to all Of the
County Agents and Farm Bureaus in
Mississippi and asked them how
much fertilizer their counties would
be willing to contract for the COM
ing year. When all reports were in
they had orders amounting to 5000
tons. The President of the State
Farm Bureau then wrote to all fer
tiliZer mixers or manufacturers in
this section, including, Armour Swift,
Tupelo Fertilizer Co., Meridian, Hat
tiesburg, The Virginia Carolina, Fer
tilizer Co., and others asking them to
meet them at Jackson, Miss, on
certain day to submit bids on this or
der of 5000 tons of fertilizer. When
the appointed day arrived all of the
fertilizer companies had representa-
tives of our Farm Bureau. 1t soon
developed that all of the fertilizer
people had fixed price of $10.75
per ton on Is per cent acid phosphate
for the year 1922. After much argu-

ganization, get you little herd OF
dairy cattle, sell cream, grow pigs
and poultry. Plant plenty of grain,
lespedeza, soy beans velvet beans
COW peas and a little cotton. Plow
deeper, turn under lots of vegetable
matter and drain your lands and
above all and in spite of all keep your
market out, let's for both buying
and selling wide open and you are
sure to become more prosperous as
the years roll by.

ment and prolonged discussion some
of the Mississippi Fertilizer compa-
MES jumped the combine and began
to bid. The Tupelo Fertilizer Com
pany finally made bid of $14.6O
and the contract for North Missis-
sippi was awarded to them.
All farm Bureaus and County
agents were at once notified of tins
contract. In less than week after
the Lafayette County Farm Bureau
had received this notice we were call
ed upon by representative OF Inc
Virginia Carolina people who offer
ed to sell US fertilizer at lower price
than had been contracted for by our
State Farm Bureau. We advised
them that we had already bought for
this year through our State Farm
Bureau and as business people we
would have to standf by our con-
tract.
Then the fight started. The Vlr-
ginia Carolina Fertilizer people and
Armour Packing Company and per
haps others began to cut prices. AT
Jackson they told our representa-
tives that they could not sell acid
phosphate this year for less than
S1975 and after this contract was
llet they sent representatives
throughout the State peddling fer
tilizer working up cooperative
shipments), etc, at prices ranging
from $13 to $14 per ton. Now
men how do you explain such con-
duct? In my opinion it was an eff
fort on the part of big Fertilizer con-
Germs to bruise the head of the Tupe-
10 Fertilizer Co., and any other fer
tiIizer Companies who dared to bolt
their combine agreements and also to
disorganize and if possible destroy
the farm bureaus of Mississippi whose
combined effort had prevented few
tmen from going behind closed doors
and fixing the price Of fertilizer for
all of the farmers Of Mississippi. To
accomplish this, they knew that
they could well afford to lose four Gr
five dollars per ton on fertilizer fer
one season. With the Farm Bureaus
destroyed, it would be easy to make
back this DIST money in another sea-
son and then Poor Old Blind Honest
John would pay them bountiful tri-
butte for many long years to come
This trick might have worked in
lyears that are gone but this time it
failed. Farmers are getting wiser
as they grow older and have profit
ed by the failures of yesterday. The
whole State has come fully up 20 its
agreement and l am cad to say that
the Grand Old County of Lafayette
has trebled what she promise TO do
Of the ten cars of fertilizer that has
been used by Lafayette County this
season, seven have come through the
Farm Bureau.
On many occasions mn have come
into our office with troubled face and
asked "Why is the price of fertilizer
higher at the Farm Bureau than at
other places?" After the explana-
ton my Soul would swell witt pride
and leap with joy as the inquirer IN
variably shouted back to the man or
the wagon saying, "Drive ii boys
and let's put her on"
Farmers, this means much to YOU
In my opinion, you are forced to en-
ter the realm of business if your bust.
mes interests are to be best looked
after and you meyer will succeed in
business unless you stay BIZ youl
contracts and deliver the goods. MY
parting prayer is that this years ex-
perience will strengthen the knees
of the weak and make the strong
grow stronger. Stay by your or

Where Oil Bubbles Up Out of the Sea

TWENTY years ago a skipper of the
L British steamer Etolia, cruising
200 miles off the Texas coast, and
With more than a mile of water be-
tween the ships keel and the
oceans floor passed through patches
of oil on the surface of the
sea. 1.-THE oil appeared to be bubbling
up from the sea-" said the note In the
ships log, and since that day there
runs through the records of the navy
photographic office repeated reports of
such oil signs at sea.
The same year the steamer Dunstan,
In almost the same position, passed
through a stream of kerosene oil about
fifty feet wide" Four years later the
San Jacinto encountered, close to the
same locality, "a layer of crude oil
color dark yellow; very strong odor,"
and steamed more than five hours at
- knots before the oil smear was left
behind.
Again, in 1909, the steamer Come
dian reported a mile-wide oil stain
(which could be seen bubbhng on the
surface in three jets"

A TTENTION Of farmers In all sec
\ tons of the country to the free
distribution of excess war explosives
for farm work Is called by the United
States Department Of Agriculture.
Since last fall the department, in CO.
operation with the various state agri-
cultural colleges, has distributed 81
100000 pounds of picric acid, surplus
explosive, which Is very efficient, easy
and safe to handle. In Minnesota the
state agricultural college reports:
eve feel that picric acid has been
great benefit to the state and has done
a great deal to stimulate land clear
ings. The 774,OO0 pounds allotted to
Minnesota were distributed to 3,511
farmers, averaging 222 pounds per
farmer. We estimate that this will
