GEORGIA FARM
INCOMES ARE LOW
A SURVEY IN % COUNTIES
SHOWS AVERAGE IN STATE
IS ONLY $271 A YEAR.

The income of the average Georgia
farm, based on thorough investiga-
tons in twenty three counties of the
state, is only $271 a year under pres
ent conditions and present farming
methods. This fact has been revealed
by a report made public by H.
S. Mobley. southern representative of
the extension department of the In
ternational Harvester Company.
The report is based on Mr.. Mob
1ey's personal Investigations, and not
only upon the income of the average
farm last year, but on an estimate of
the income that will be made this
year as the result OF careful survey
of present conditions. The income of
the farm includes the income of the
entire family on the farm.
Figures Given.
The income from the average farm
is as follows $l60 from cotton; $45
from one and one-half cows, the aver
age for each farm; $13 from Fl hens;
$40 from three and one-half hogs, the
average number on each farm; and
$13 from unclassifed sources. In max
ing his report Mr.. Mobley pointed
out that six cows would produce an
income as large as that now produced
by cotton, and that the income from
every farm would be greatly increased
by growing less cotton and raising
more hogs, hens and cows.
He pointed out that in little Ken
lucky town, Buffalo, where he had
once worked prosperity was restored
to that section, when the land would
not longer grow the tobacco it once
would, by increased dairying. He de-
clared that the Georgia Association,
IAN organization OF business men i'll
cooperation with county agents and
farmers. had revolutionized Turner
county and restored it to prosperity
by the hog, hen and COW program"

They're ahead of all British and Cana

Interest in Race.
English poultry fanciers are resum-

manifested by the recent visit OF Per-

ture, London. He was highly gratifed
to find an English hen, Lady Ander-

continuing to lead in the Wyandotte
class. A thousand hens entered are
nearly 10000 eggs ahead OF the ex-

first 20 weeks they laid 1912 eggs,
as compared with 70,142, the average
for previous years-9,050 ahead Of the
average and are more than 5000 ahead
OF the best previous mark. At this
rate the hens should lay total of
10000 eggs by November l, 1923.

TOO MUCH TALK AND

NO SAVIOR IS COMING FROM
OUTSIDE, SAYS PRESIDENT
GEORGIA ASSOCIATION.

MOULTRIE, Ga.-Addressing' a
meeting OF Colquitt county farmers
and business men here George T.
Belts, president of the Georgia Asso-
citation and prominent banker. decar-
ed that just such interviews as given
by a south Georgia lawmaker to an
Atlanta paper few days ago in
which the lawmaker said she had no
sympathy or patience with that crowd
OF folks who are trying to tell you
that there is something the matter
with Georgia" was one of the rea-
sons that ether states in the south
are passing Georgia in development
and prosperity.
Whacks a Legislator.
Eyes, he told the Atlanta paper the
folks down in his county were happy,
back on their feet, etc, Mr.. Belts de-
clared. well, if they are God pity

times within the past few months and
| can't forget what | have seen. Wo-
men and girls many of them bare
footed, were toiling in the fields as
L 1OdG ny. llOuSCS llNOdNd painting
barns were dilapidated and nowhere
was there any evidence OF the prosper
ity this representative in the legisla-
ture sung of in his talk to the Allan
ia newspaper man. That is one of the
things the matter with us. We have
been deluding ourselves about this
Empire State stuff, and this being the
best place in the world to live! What
we need to understand is that we are
tagging behind, but that by the right
kind of effort we can lead the south
in development"
Mr.. Belts said that agricultural re-
Nuisance in Georgia must be brought
about by Georgians. The state will
await in vain for savior to come
from without, he insisted. Labor is
leaving the state, but it is not neces-
sary to hire labor to do that which is
needed in Georgia. Mr.. Belts con-
tended. The work must be done by
the man on the farm, he said. It is not
plantations and many plows that are
needed, but it is pastures and grain,
live stock and poultry, he said. These
can be looked after without much la
Dor, he pointed out.
Boil Weevil Didn't Do 1t.
1T was not the boil weevil that
made cotton an Improbable crop"
Mr.. Belts asserted I'VE had made
cotton with free labor for more than
fifty years before the boil weevil in
vaded Georgia, and were growing
poorer every year. The cattle were de-
teriorating each year. The hogs were
becoming razor backs The chickens
were becoming scrubs. The lands were
being wasted and worn into non-pro-
ductiveness. Only our pride, our ego
tism, our conceit and our false claims
remained one hundred per cent.
Mr.. Belts declared that a similar
situation existed in Wisconsin, which
was the victim Of the same system
the one crop system-wheat having
the right of way there where cotton
had it here. Dairying and live stock
production saved Wisconsin and their
success can be duplicated in Georgia,
according to Mr. Belts. This, he
pointed out, has already been estab-
lished in a few localities in the state
and it can be done anywhere in Geor-
gia, he declared.
