PRAISES VARIED CROPS.
Bank Head Sees Greater Pros
perity in South.

NEW YORK, April 9.-The moderate
successful Southern cotton grower OF
other days has become a prosperous
farmer in variety of lines. M. L.
Jenks, vice president of the American
Surety Co., finds from a survey he
has made in Georgia, Louisiana.
Texas, Oklahoma and the Mississippi
River Valley Southern farming has
come to realize, he says, that instead
of confining itself to cotton, which
may be greatly damaged by boil
weevil, equally satisfactory returns
may be had from raising tobacco,
vegetables, horses, cows and chickens
This diversification should result in
a favorable year for the South.

NEW YORK, April s.-CoaI Age
