Showing the farmer “how” Editor Atlanta Constitution , Atlanta , Oa. Editor Constitution: During the past three months 1 have traveled over the states of South Carolina and Georgia, Interviewing ninny of the he-d and most prominent farmers. I find that they are hauling their cotton from the gins to their homes and there storing same something I never saw before. Tlii condition is brought about on account of the extremely low price of cotton, attributed mainly because of the war in Europe and to a lesser extent by rea son of a “bumper” crop. These farmers seem interested .and express a willingness to produce other commodities. All of the larger railway systems in this part of the country, and. In feet, throughout the south, have com petent and efficient industrial represen ts fives in the field, assisting and show ing the farmers “how” to diversify their crops oml put them on a better pay ing bnsis. In south Georgia (Colquitt county) 1 visited Some clover and alfalfa fields as fine ns anyone would wish to see, planted under the direction of one of the industrial agents referred to above. Many of the farmers are beginning t<> realize that there is an unlimited and never-ending market for fresh meats, and are branching out into cattle an 1 liog raising.

I was certainly in a dreadful state of health, when I finally decided to try Cgrdui, the woman’s tonic, and I firmly “One of the most inspiring develop ments- of the prevalent cotton crisis in the south is the manner in which south ern railroad* and general transporta tion agencies are multiplying agencies already active, to the end of encourag ing the fanner to diversify, to reduce cotton acreage and, in larger terms to aid the south in finding a way out of ihe problem that confronts it. An il lustration is found in a communication, published elsewhere, from 1. M. Cox, industrial agent of the Southern Ex press company. To Mr. Cox’s propa ganda is traceable the growth and ship ment, now proceeding, of 80,000 crates of beans, tomatoes, cucumbers and po tatoes from that rich section of Geor gia around Cornelia, Mount Airy anil Tallulah Park. The Southern Express company is helping the growers find a ma.ket for all this truck. This is con - motive work of the most practieal tvpe. It is upon such efforts, founded primarily upon reduction of cotton reage, that the state and the south mils: depend for a solution of the un precedented difficulties of this year and next year. Mr Cox further shows what The Constitution Ins ahvay contended, and t is that the United States parcel > t. and the xpress companies would • >-oper;:te in stimulating relations le -i*s een producer and consumer.
