Starting a Diversified Farm

Starting a Diversified Farm
A. NJ. H, Buena Vista, Ga,
writes: l am planning to start
in small way with COWS, pigs
and chickens. l want to keep
about ten cows, and sell the
cream and feed the skim milk.
About how many pigs and chick
ems should l start with: Any
suggestions from you will be ap-
preciated.
You are to be congratulated on
your plan to diversity production in
your section. In starting into the
live stock business, the first thing
to remember is that an abundance
of food must be produced. Live
stock is profitable in proportion to
the manner in which they are fed
and handled. There is no reason
why you should not sell cream to
considerable advantage. The cows
may be made to utilize the rough
age produced on your farm satisfac-
torily. Skim milk is the most val
liable adjunct you possibly could
have for pigs and chickens. Some
people consider a cheese factory
more profitable than creamery. L
think they are mistaken, however,
DGCduSS Il6y ONGllOOh tiiN AOON
value of the skim milk which one
obtains on a farm which simply
ships cream. Ten cows would be
a right good herd to start with. If
you have had no experience in han
ding a dairy business, our advice
would be to go slow. Start with
five cows if necessary, and gain
knowledge and experience as you
build up your business. Two good
brood sows will enable you to set
into the hog business in rather
short order. Of course if you have
the grazing crops available and
plenty of land, you can enlarge
your foundation herd as you see fit.
Two good brood sows, properly ham
died, should fallow two filters per
year and give you sixteen to twenty
good pigs to sell. Any farm should
be able to take care of from % to
80 chickens satisfactorily. We think
the latter number should be main
tanned easily. If you expect to get
on with chickens, provide them with
some green food and plenty of grain
feed in addition. Chickens should
not be expected to gather their liv
ing by their own efforts. The eggs
should be gathered daily so as to
insure their being fresh.

for several years past. Household
linens held first place. Towels, gen.

loped on the edge with a lovely tilet
crochet edging. l am glad to say
that the embroidery showed either
the dainty pastel shades or white.
Towels with lurid embroidery never
appeared to me. Sheets made of the
unbleached muslin, the hem hem
stitched double, and either a filet
crochet or a beautifully embroidered
monogram. Pillow cases, bureau
scarfs, tufted spreads. Oh. the beau
ty of this last piece of work and. of
course. smaller articles like hand
kerchiefs, hand hemmed or hem
stitched, Of batiste or linen; collars,
some with very fine tatting or filet
edges. with cuffs to match; vestees
to match, where the set was elabor
ate The embroidery on these was
white. Lavender bags, made Of fine
tarlton or orsandie, two 10 six in the
group, smelling just like our grand

THE NEW CONGRESSMAN

Young MT. J. Lister Hill, ex-service man, lawyer and member of the Mont gomery school board, will succeed to the vacancy in congress created by the death of John R. Tyson of the Second district. To young man en- tering politics no brighter prospect was ever presented than that afforded by the opportunity to serve Alabama at this beginning of it's great and in calculable expansion in every produc- tive direction. It is encouraging to note that MT. Hill is committed to the support of the offer of Henry Ford for Muscle Shoals, and that he speci- fically put himself on record as op- posing the ambition of those corpora tions seeking a monopoly of the states resources. These judgments indicate the proper attitude towards the public welfare and towards the legitimate destiny of Alabama. Mir. Hills pO- litical opportunity is limitless. The less attention he pays to his politi- -cal situation and the more intelli- gent industry he devotes to solving problems of public moment in a man ner conducive to the public welfare, the more secure his political tenure will become.

PREMIER MUSSOLINI

Premier Mussolini, usually called the dictator of Italy, is the most in- teresting political figure in the world today. Although he attained author ity by a most unusual procedure for these latter days, there is little doubt that he is now wholeheartedly ac- cepted by the majority of Italians as their choice above all others. He has succeeded in bringing to his support not only the common people, but also those two hereditary opponents in parliament, the Catholics and the So- sialists. This was recently shown by the overwhelming majority cast for Mussolini's pet measure reforming the electorate and protecting male sui efrage throughout Italy, Mussolini's aim is to expand popular government among his countrymen, and no party dared to oppose the inevitable, lest that be the stone over which they might ultimately stumble. If any party should have opposed extension of suffrage, that party would nave been the first to experience popular disapproval at the polls once that suf- frage was expanded. Thus it is seen that the dictator is a political strate- gist as we'll as statesman.
 In a recent public utterance Mus solini said: "They say we want to abolish parliament. That is not true. We want to make parliament serious institution" Would that somebody with equal authority in this country would say, and mean it: "We want to make congress serious institu- tion! Mussolini wants to make the Italian national assembly accountable to the people of Italy. If there are those who do not truly represent the

PEOPLES FORUM
Suggests Vote on Consolidation

To the Editor of The Herald: I have read, with n great deal of interest, the editorials in this ] mornings issue, particularly the one headed Not a Wise Resolu- tion," the first paragraph of which reads. No good legislation ever came out of star chamber of steam roller methods. No public good ever came out of a taboo placed upon any worthy legislative sub ject. No law-making body can af- ford to deny consideration of an issue in which the people they rep resent have shown intense con- ern."
 That is one of the wisest things you ever wrote. If the principle will apply to the case for which you wrote it, will 1t not also ap- ply to the bill consolidating the cities of Albany The people of Albany Decatur are in tensely interested" and have been for the past twenty-five years or more, in the question of Consolida- tion, but l venture to say that not over aB dozen people knew that such a bill was being drawn, much less what it would contain. If this act is not star chamber meth ods," what is 1t? If, as you say in the Albany-Decatur editorial little opposition is evidenced" and there is not doubt that the bill will pass" how could there be op- position to it when 1t was not known? If there is no objection to the bill, why not submit it to a vote of the people? Can any law making body afford to deny con sideration of an issue in which the people they represent have shown intense concern?" Why not submit this measure o'the people interested? How many members of the legislature are personally interested in Albany Decatur? Will they as body deny the peo- pie interested the right to ex- press their opinions with their vote? Would it not be steam roller methods" to deny them this right? I say again, if a large ma jority of the people are in favor of this bill. as you seem to think they are. then let them say so by their votes and a better taste will be left in the mouth" of all, and thereby avoid a great deal of pickering in the future; but to railroad" this bill through is not fair, right or just.
 l have 1t on the best of author ity that when Governor Brandon was here on visit, he was asked this question:: Governor, if bill were passed consolidating these towns, would you sign it?" His reply was, Yes. before the ink was dry"
 Is this not pre-judging a case and denying the very thing he has been preaching for years-the right "of lf-determination" and willingness to submit to the will of the people?" I admire Gov ernor Brandon very much, and prefer to think he spoke on the spur of the moment, and was eX- pressing his own individual obin- ion and not the will of the peo- pie" and without full knowledge of conditions. But why all this voluminous act? There is a gen eral law for annexing one town by another, and a law for the con solidation of two towns. Why not follow one of them?

THE ALBANY-DECATUR BILL

In another column of this page is printed a communication from State Senator E. c. Rogers in which he sug- gests submitting the proposal for con- solidation of Albany-Decatur to a vote of the people of the two cities A bill is pending in the legislature providing for such consolidation, and leaving the name of the consolidated cities and it's form of municipal government for the people to vote on. The Age Herald's understanding was that the majority of the people of both cities are in favor of consolidation, and that there is virtually no opposition to the bill. In that event the calling of an election would be unnecessary. If there be misunderstanding, secrecy, or objection to the measure, however, as Senator Rogers intimates, the voters of the two cities should have the privi- lege, as they have the right, of ex- pressing themselves on the proposition. Certainly if there be any "star-cham- DSI UT SledHl-TOlleT CacClcS under taken in connection with the bill, any suspicion or misunderstanding arising therefrom would and should be re- moved by an election.
 In any event, the matter should be open and aboveboard, and a hearing should be afforded any delegation of citizens who desire to present claims or arguments for or against the meas u1'e, Should there be a desire of considerable number of citizens that the bill in the legislature be not passed, there should be an election to pass on the proposition. The Age Herald's position in favor of the pass age of the bill was taken with the un- derstanding that the people of Albany Decatur desire consolidation. That is still The Age-Herald's information. If there is any doubt, however, an election would remove it, and there would be no future ground for dis content or criticism.

much significance as a similar result In some more normal state would pos sess. The state has been in a condition of political turmoil for some time, and only slight currents have been able to veer the political vane to almost any quarter, except, of course, Democratic. If the price of wheat had gone up in stead of down, Preus might have been the successful candidate. The trouble is that wheat stayed up long enough to defy the laws of gravity as it was, for there has been a surplus for some time, owing to the curtailment of a foreign market. Yet there is signifi- canoe in that the West is restless and ready for change. The Democrats with shrewdness may well turn that fact to their advantage.
