PERMANENT PROSPERITY
TOR SOUTHERN FARMERS
, ‘“Why wouldn’t it bs a good idea to
Start right now establishing permanent
farm prosperity on every Southern
farm, to take the place of the regular
see-saw into debt and out ot debt that
has been going on for fifty years or
more,” said H. G. Hastings of Atlanta,
prominent agricultural leader, recently.
"Enough money has come into the
South during the last twenty-five years
for cotton to have made this the weal
thiest agricultural section instead of the
poorest. Where has all these billions
upon billions of dollars gone?
"These cotton dollars have largely
gona to the North and West for bread
and meat, gone never to return. Our
foolishness, our slavishness to the one
crop system is the reason. Our foolish
ness has put our farm land values on
a SIO.OO to $50.00 per acre basis and
largely helped to put Illinois and lowa
lands on a $300.00 to $400.00 per acre
basis.
“It is world wide experience with
no exception that there can be no reg
ular permanent prosperity to the reg
ular food buying, grain buying cropper
or farmer. Every dollar’s worth of
food and grain produced on home acres
is a dollar saved. It means that much
freedom from debt, high interest and
dealers’ profits.
"Food, grain and forage production
on home acres sufficient for the family,
the working live stock, the cows and
meat animals, poultry, etc., is the first
step toward permanent farm prosperity
and there can be no permanent farm
prosperity on anybody’s farm until these
necessary items, fully sufficient for
home needs, are produced on home
acres, not only in 1923 but every year.
"It’s a good time now to start the
prosperity program off right. The first
thing in line is a real home garden,
properly prepared, planted anil kept re
planted through the year. Lots of farm
folks tell us that one-third to one-half
their living comes out of their garden.
Corn and other grain and forage crops
take care of the live stock. Hogs and
poultry cannot fatten or produce eggs
on air and water. So it is all along the
line. Make food instead of buy food
for home use. It beats ‘get rich quick’
schemes and steadily followed insures
permanent farm prosperity.”
In casting about for something to
be thankful for, thank God that you
do not live in a county where the
bankruptcy mania has taken firm
hold. This is rather a serious mat
ter in some counties that might be
mentioned.

GOVERNOR HARDWICK NOT
TO PRINT WEEKLY PAPER
Will Devote Time to Practice of
Law After June
Atlanta, Ga.—Governor Hardwick
has decided not to enter the weekly
newspaper field in Georgoa.
The governor said that the prac
tice of law will so occupy his time
after he leaves the gubernatorial
chair that he will be unable to de
vote the time he had expected to
“The Georgia Democrat” as his
projected paper was to have been
called. He added that as soon as
the necessary clerical work could
be done he would return the sub
scriptions already received to those
wAo have sent them in.
Now is a good time to begin us
ing Georgia products.
TESTED UNDER
TONS OF WATER
EVERY Clark Grave Vault
before it leaves the factory
withstands the severest possible
tests. It is completely submerged
in water subjected to two and
one-half tons pressure. It must be
absolutelyair-tight and notatany
time permit water toleakthrough.
(Stone, brick and concrete vaults
let water in and hold it.)
Its proved protection is made
permanent through the use of
heavy twelve gauge Keystone
copper-bearing steel the most
perfect rust resisting steel made.
All joints are doubly welded; are
thicker and stronger than the
plates themselves. We earnestly
recommend this “quality” vault.
