Without fertilize!s much,of the best producing cotton lands' in the South would become unproductive and farming would be unprofitable. In many states, pxcept in a few locali ties soil is no more capable of pro ducing without being fertilized than stock is capable of performing work without being fed. Our lands must be fed just as we feed the stock that work them or they will become too poor to even pay the cost and expense of cultivation. Transformed Sections Large sections of land in various parts of the South Atlantic States, for ty or fifty years ago, required four or five acres to produce one bale of cotton, which now, by intelligent farm ing, made possible by the use of fer tilizers, yield one bale to each acre, or the equivalent, of other crops. Pov erty stricken sections of one or two generations ago have been transform ed into populous and prosperous com munities. Our ability to rebuild and make our lands more fertile has en abled people to live and settle in £iore desirable communities, and to enjoy advantages of better markets, schools, churches and social conditions. Bet ter rural conditions have made the “back to the farm” movement not only a possibility, but a reality. Prosperity Cue to Fertilizers Whatever may be the direct benefit, it is obvious from a study of the sit uation that the present prosperity and greater population in South Carolina is due more largely to the ’ use of commercial fertilizers than to any oth er cause, because in South Carolina fertilizers are absolutely necessary to profitable agriculture, upon which most of our business and other industries depend. Had it not been for the use of commercial fertilizers South Caro lina could not be considered an agri cultural state. Taking into consideration the cost of fertilizers, statistics will bear out the statement that the once worn out Aim At Above-the-Average Yields In 1919 (From Progressive Farmer, Dec. 31.) For the average Southern farmer, we cannot think of a better resolution for the New Year than one calling for better than average yields. Aver age yields, whatever the crop, mean, over a period of years, little more than a living wage. But as the indi vidual farmer rises above the average, his net profits, nine times in ten, corre spondingly rise. The man who raises cotton must see that our average of about one-third of a bale per acre can only mean poverty to the grower; the man who grows corn and oats at our average rate of 15 to 20 bushels per acre must see that there can be no profit in such yields; our peanut and tobacco farmers, our dairy and general livestock farmers must see that so long as they are content with a mere ly average yield per acre or per ani mal, just so long will they find the farming game unprofitable and unsat isfactory. Good land, planted to good seeds and well fertilized and well tilled is the key to successful farming; for good land, plus good seed, fertilization and tillage, means high yields and good profits. In the new year, every farm er should aim at these; and in getting HENRY COUNTY WEEKLY, McDONOUGH, GEORGIA • • 1 T eri ' ivml •fields of S nth Caro ■ lirta yled a greater profit per acre 'that the richer river Is-d Oonce the ; pride of the Southern eoslon planter, |n- than the fe. rile lands of l exaa. Land Values Increased This statement is reflected in the fe-t Let riv'pe a w. e lr.r.' in. parts jof -South Carolina are selling freely 1 for more.than SIOO.OO per acre. T l ave he-n dealing with the effect of e fertilizer indu ry and the uv>o of f Ttii'zor:’' on agriculture, because, as I have said, the effects on business gep rally must r ’-ult from the effect on agriculture, and it*ls obvious that they • ravi t he innumerable. The fer tilizer-business in the South is one of ’he most import a v iT, and’concerns our presp rity more directly than any uj’: r industry, and in its effects no ! other I”dusty/ so ramifies into other bn -’ness or'has a greater effect on the *->• lu Trie A and business generally. H 'pa Railroads and Manufacturers * are inot’i pai ii ukvvly and directly ben efited by the use of commercial fertll f»prs ari' the railroads and common carriers, which fir t bring fertilizers to the farmers, and in return trans port the increased products of the farm to the ends of the earih; and finally when these products are sold, for a third time, the. railroads are call ed upon to bring to the farmer his upplies of foreign and domestic prod ucts. The use of fertilizer has made more spindles in the South, more oil mills, more live stock, more people and more commerce. The tobacco crop and our trucking industry, requiring intensive fertilization and plant food, would be practically unknown to us. Ships bring raw material from foreign shores in greater quantities and in return carry away more cotton and grain. Cheapens Cost of Producing Crops The commercial business is affected in even greater proportion than the farmer himself, and there is no farm er in the South who is not benefited by the judicious use of commercial fertilizer. Large crops give to the people a greater supply at a lower cost of production and at a lowen price to the consumer, while on the other hand small crops not only increase the cost of production, but may increase in even greater proportion the price to the consumer. When harvests are abundant the consumer and producer alike share in the increased prosper ity. Other means of cheapening the cost of production can be used profitably only on a very large or on a very small scale, but fertilizers can be ap plied with practically the same suc cess to the smallest as well as the largest undertaking from the individ ual plant in the flower pot to the thou sand acre cotton field. It was my pleasure some years ago to know many more manufacturers and dealers in fertilizers than I know at present, but I wish to testify to the high character and intelligence of those with whom I became associated. The proper use of commercial fertil izer by the farmer is obviously of vital importance to the fertilizer industry as well as to the farmer, and it is a matter that should receive thought and careful consideration at all times by those who promote the industry. them, it should be remembered that rather liberal expenditures are justi fiable. For instance, when a bale of cotton with the seed is worth $l5O, our average per acre yield of one-third of a bale is worth SSO; but w r hen we in crease this to two-thirds of a bale, worth SIOO, we have a gross profit of SSO with which to pay for the cost of the increase. Of course the cost of this increased yield, if the matter be gone about judiciously, will practically never be as much as SSO. More often than not, in fact, it w T ill be $25 or less, leaving a net profit of $25 or more per acre. And the same rule will hold with other crops and livestock as well. The higher the yield per acre or per animal, within certain limits, the greater the net return. The new year and the years to come hold great things for the thinking, pro gressive, business-like farmer. Prices promise to remain good for a long time,' and fair profits seem certain for the man who farms right. Let us, as our first New Year resolu tion, aim at putting our farms on a big-yielding, money - making basis. There is no surer way for making farm life more attractive and desirable and for keeping the boya and girls on the farms.
