Certainly some day years, probabh getting ready FOR THE FUTURE The second feature that standi out today is this: Our farming equipment, Including land, ma- chinery and morale has l.oen shot to pieces. The depression inten* sified by certain local condition; such as the boll weevil menata with us has brought about a condition where tho farmers, through neces sity and discouragement, have 1st their farming equipment go down Work stock is gettinff old, mt» chinery nnd implements are belnr patched and repatched, lands not receiving sufficient attention to make them more fertile.

Certainly, In view of the present situation and the future outlook, the question of debt need straight thinking. If the improve ment in farm products cornea and is certain that It will come the farmer who hns freed himaeli of the burden of debt, will be lr shape to take care of the demand and profit thereby. The questlor of debt should be disassociated from the question of current credit : To use ones current credit to meet the interest and principal payment Of debt is poor business, except ing to tide over a short period ol emergency'. Debts necessarily mus be met from earnings or from cap!- Ital account. Including In some cases the liquidation of a part o the investment. In other cases th burden can be met by Incre isinr the valuation of property whl .i |i supporting the debt. Logically valuations will be increased by'in creased profitable production, lair ing the past few years, in many cases farmers have used their credit to get money with which to pay interest on old debts nnd taxes. The first step in getting in shape for the future will be to change thi; getting money for taxes nnd inter, est from earnings. The next step will he reducing the debt ration to property valuation. Then the im provement of the lands and ma chinery so ns to get more efficient production should follow. To thoiw who can do this the future farm ing outlook Is exceedingly bright.
