Hastings Declares Tint Southern
Farmers Can Repeat the Past
Year's Prosperity, if
They Will
Atlanta, Ga. —(Special.)—“The gen
erality of Southern fanners made real
money out of their farming operations
in 1010. more profit than most of them
ever made before, despite boil weevil,
unfavorable seasons and labor short
age."
This statement was made recently
by H. G. Hastings, president of both
tlie Southeastern Fair Association and
the Georgia State Chamber of Com
merce, in discussing general farm
conditions in the South.
' “Very naturally most of this farm
prosperity is credited to the high
price of cotton and, of course, the high
price helped, but the real down-at-the
bottom reason was that most farmers
owned their cotton when it was made
instead of ‘owing- it for food and
grain bought on credit, as used to be
the case when the practice was to
grow all or nearly all cotton and buy
on credit all or nearly all food, grain,
<nt
‘•Present farm prosperity is due
largely to wliat Dr. Bradford Knapp,
head of the demonstration work, has
so aptly termed ‘Safe Farming,’ which
is nothing more or less than growing
on home acres every pound of food,
grain and forage needed for family
and live stock use. When this"is done
every other available acre can wisely
and safely be put tit cotton or other
cash crop.
“The expense of making cotton or
other cash crop is, either directly or
indirectly, the cost of.food for man
and beast that works the crop. Most
items of food and grain can be pro
duced on southern farms at one-third
to one-half what those same items
cost from supply merchants.
“We made money last year by fol
lowing the only wry that insures per
manent farm prosperity, home pro
duction of home food and grai'n needs.
We can repeat this money making in
1920 by following the same common
sense way that put us right last year
and will keep us right in 1920 and
every year, if we follow it up anil not
gamble in eotton planting.
“it’s a great temptation to gamble
in cotton in 1920 —gamble in cotton
in the field, which is just as bad as
gambling in cotton on the New York
or Now Orleans exchanges. I know
some folks who are planning to
double cotton acreage this year. They
are headed for disaster sooner or
later. The wise farmer will play safe
in 1920 nlay safe by doing ‘safe
farming.’ ”

Doses of ZIROM Iron Tonic.
Increase in appetite, the coming back
of strength, disappearance of headaches
and other ills, are a few of the many
good results obtained from the use of a
new remedy (Ziron Iron Tonic).
Mr. Sim’ urimstey, of Cdrdele, Ga.,
tried Ziron and has this to say:
"When 1 began to take Ziron, it seemed
that my whole system was run-down
but soon after I began to take Ziron, 1
could eat more each day and would feel
a great deal better. Ever since it seems
that my health has been improving, as I
seldom have the headache or teel bad
the least bit.”
Ziron is a r.ew scientific combination
of puTe medicinal inorganic iron, com
bined with phosphorus, the active prin
ciple of nux vomica and the hypophos- 1
phites of lime and soda. It will help to
add more rea corpuscles to your blood,

The Successful Farmer
Raises Bigger Crops
and cuts down costs by investment in
labor-saving machinery.
1 Good prices for the farmers’ crops en
courage new investment, more production
and greater prosperity.
But the success of agriculture depends
on the growth of railroads —the modern
beasts of burden that haul the crops to
7 ‘
the world’s markets.
The railroads—like the farms increase
their output and cut down unit costs oy
the constant investment of new capital.
With fair prices for - the work they do,
the railroads are able to attract new capital
for expanding their facilities.
Rates high enough to yield a fair return
will insure railroad growth, and prevent
costly traffic congestion, which invariably
results in poorer service at higher cost.
National wealth can increase only as our
railroads grow.
Poor railroad service is dear at any
price. No growing country can long pay
the price of inadequate transportation
facilities.
