Never before in the history of the South has there
been so general interest in daiyng at present This
ditiOn.
It is by no means entirely due to the presence of
the boil weevi the greater part of the cotton belt
With cotton above 20 cents pound the per income
from cotton is much greater though the Weevils
reduce the Yields than before the weevis came but
doubt the boil Weevi has caused many to seek additional
sources Of income and to adopt a system of farming
which will tend to increase rather than deplete soil
fertility. The boil Weevils have made it
evident than before that the future of southern
agriculture is dependent rich soils.

This need for farming system
which would make soil Improvement
more easy and certain is one of
the chief reasons for the present
increase of interest in dairying.
1t is also being learned that dairy
ing is one line of livestock pro-
duction which fits well with cotton
growing. 1t not only gives more
continuous employment to labor, but
gives a steady and constant income.
thereby reducing the credit needed
for the production of a cotton crop
Moreover. butterfat has suffered
less from the general depression in
prices of farm products than most
other farm products.
But after giving due allowance
for all these good reasons for III
creasing dairy production, we can
not but feel that perhaps the most
powerful Influence which has stimu-
lated an interest in dairying is the
knowledge that the farm families
of the south are using not over
one fourth the milk necessary for
the proper feeding of our pOpula
ton.
Milk Necessary for Healthy
Growth of Children.
No product has ever received more
helpful publicity than has come
from the recently proved necessity
for milk as human food. The
facts which science has recently
proved. but which many believed
for generations, that milk is neces-
Safy tor the vigorous healthy
growth of children and almost
equally necessary for the health
OF adults, have been given gerater
publicity than perhaps any other
recently developed facts relating
to- agriculture.
The encouraging feature of our
present dairy development in Rankin
County is the large number of small
farmers who are selling little
cream or increasing to some extent
the milk production on the farm.
In short, we are now growing
into a larger dairy interest instead
of going" into the dairy business
as has been too frequently the
case in the past Here and there
over the county can be seen the
results of the small dairy, the owner
is buying on cash basis and
gradually adding to the fertility of
his soil. The next twelve months
will bring Il greater interest i'll
this very important phase of agri-
culture.
