ROWAN
FARM
GLEANINGS
By w. G. YEAGER
County Agent

Harvest time is drawing to a close
in Rowan upon a bountiful nature
that has surely smiled upon our till
ers of the soil. Barns everywhere are
bullying with grains and hays, cotton,
bale upon bale, is being piled up in
farmers sheds and outhouses with
hopes for a better price, while seeding
of small grains goes forward for an
other crop. Many farmers are mixing
a small quantity of vetch seed in with
the wheat for an additional profit at
harvest time next year. From ten to
fifteen dollars per acre extra can very
easily be picked up this way with no

but a few pay streaks of sand yet de-
veloped.
Thoughtful farmers are carefully
weighing the experiences of success
full communities in projecting their
future crop plans and will readjust
their farm operations to the more bal
anced type of agriculture.
The comment of County Agent, J.
W. Sergeant of Pulaski county, Ark,
is worth repeating here as it points
out a striking reality.
According to County Agent J. W.
Sargent, the cotton raised III Pulaski
county, Arkansas, last year brought
5000, o00-just about half what it
cost to produce it. As a result, one-
fourth or more of the farmers in the
county require drouth relief and are
receiving aid either for food, feed,
seed or fertilizer, or all. But, in spite
of the fact that it was n of the
hardest hit sections of Arkansas in the
1880 drouth, the total value of Pu-
laski county dairy products was in the
