E. 11. Gary, head of the big
gest industrial organization in ho
world, and John I*. Rockeftiu 1 ,
Jr., representing what is probably
at ill the biggest fortune in tho
■world, had breakfast with Presi

They du ussed law enforeentent
and the findings of a citizens’ com
mittee of one thousand.
Those three men make an in

There is anew plnn for teach

This is the ' ’Knighthood” plan,
to tench little boys chivalry and
guide them away from evil.
It’s a good plan, presumably,
but it is possible to overdo schemes
and plans for showing boys how
to art and think.
They need some time in which
to think exactly in their own way.
It is the thinking that a boy does
on his own account nnd of his
own free will that counts.

TIME TO auil
TRADING DOLLARS
HASTINGS DECLARES TH AT PRES
ENT SOUTHERN FARM SYSTEM
GETS US NOWHERE
Atlanta. Ga (Spec al.l—' ’’lt's time
i for every Southern farmer who clings j
1 to tb- all or n* arly all. cotton idea to |
dg a lot cf straight thinking before
ho pitches his 1925 crop. Most of our
i cotton farmers are trading dollars
and losing at that three years out of
four.” said H. G. Hastings, leading
agricultural authority r.rd Chairman
of the Farm and Marketing Bureau of
the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce.
"For tho past two years Providence
has stepped in and saved us from the j
results of our own folly. In 1923 we j
planted thirty - nine million acres of j
cotton; In 1924 forty million acres.;
In each of these years there was acre- |
age enough to hove made, with even
j fair season conditions, sixteen to eigh- j
teen million bales and a ten-cent price
! or less with tho inevitable farm smash j
! that such price would bring.” Provi- i
j donee cannot bed pended on indofi-;
j nltely to bring unfavorable seasons j
1 and cut down yield per acre. Wo,
j stepped lip a couple of million bales
| in and. by so doing, the South
I has lost about three hundred million
dollars that have come right out of
tho farm pocket.
"In spite of these danger signals
flying in evt ry cotton state, plans
are being mad everywhere to in
cr* ase cotton acreage ‘n 1025. This
I can only be done at the expense
{ of cutting down food and grain acres
' at a time when food and grain is high
and going higher every week.
“1 am no alarmist, but the present
tendency, the intent to plant the whole
face of the earth in cotton this spring
that is so evident gives me grave con
cern. If the boll weevil or drought
don't cut the 1925 crop, starvation low
prices will get the cotton grower. The
situation looks just as hazardous to me
as In 1920. unless the craze for in
creased cotton acreage can be headed
off somehow.
Growing cotton and buying bread
meat and grain is simply trading dol
lars, or worse. It never is profitable.
Most years it's a lc*ing game. There
is only one way to safeguard 1925
Flan for and plant enough food, grain
and forage acres to insure your family
nnd live stock full food supply with
out buying from store or feed dealer.
In this don’t forget that a good big
home garden is a wonderful food
source. With food and live stock
mply provided for, a good living ii
-ured, regardless of cotton prices.’

SEW UP THE HOLES
IN FARM POCKETS
NO FARMER CAN REGULARLY
BUY FOOD AND GRAiN
AND PROSPER
Atlanta, Ga.—(Special.)—''For fifty
tears or more the generality cf our
cotton-growing tanners have been
regularly going around with holes in
their pockets, so to speak, through
which dropped any and all profits that
could and should have come from
their farm operations." "If the South
is to ever reach any reasonable degree
of farm prosperity, those holes must
be sewed up." said H. G. Hastings,
leading agricultural authority and
chairman of the Farm and Marketing
Bureau of the Atlanta Chamber of
Commerce.
"1 have been in practically ev ry state
in our own country, as well as many
foreign countries. I have yet to see
any state or section where food and
grain buying by farmers was the regu
lar practice that did not show rela
tive poverty on the part of those
farmers. On the other hand. I have
never been in any state or section
where food and grain was grown suf
ficient at least for home needs whero
farm prosperity did not show.
“If he would, the Southern farmer
could be the richest farmer in the
United Utates instead of the poorest,
which he is. The reason he isn t
prosperous is because h: p mists in
following a farm system that has
proved a failure the world over re
gardless of the particular crop grown.
"The South's dependence on cotton
and the regular purchase of food nnd
grain from other sections U the real
cause ot the Southern farmer's lack
of prosperity. And things are not go
ing to get right with our farmers until
they quit having their smoke houses
In Chicago or Omaha and their corn
cribs in lowa or Kansas.
"The 1925 cotton crop is going to
be one of the most expensive to make
we have ever seen. Food, grain, labor
and fertilizer are all high. Every
pound of food or grain needed by
farm family or working live stock
should be produced on home acres,
and that production started in gar-
I den and in field just as early as sea
son conditions will permit. Home pro
i duction of every pound of food, grain
i and forage needed for home consump
tion on the farm in .1923 will stop up
; the holes in the South's farm pocket,
i and it's the only way to ?top them up."
