TIME TO QUIT
TRADING DOLLARS
HASTINGS DECLARES THAT PRES
ENT SOUTHERN FARM SYSTEM
GETS US NOWHERE
Atlanta, Ga. — (Special.)—“lt’s time
for every Southern farmer who clings
to the all, or nearly all, cotton idea to
Cos a lot of straight thinking before
he pitches his 1925 crop. Most of our
cotton farmers are trading dollars
and losir.g at that three years out of
four,” said H. G. Hastings, leading
agricultural authority and Chairman
of the Farm and Marketing Bureau of
the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce.
“For the past two years Provid nee
has stepped in and -saved us from th 6
results of our own folly. In 1923 we
planted thirty - nine million acres of
cotton; in 1924 forty million acres.
In each of these years there was acre
age enough to have made, with even
fair season conditions, sixteen to eigh
teen md'ion hales ar.rt a ten-cent price
or less with the inevitable farm smash
that such price would bring.” Provi
dence cannot bo depended on itul. fi
nite'y to bring unfavorable seasons
arid cut down yield p r acre. We
f tepped up a couple of million bales
in 1924, and, by so doing, the South
lias lost about three hundred million
dollars that have come right out oi
the farm pocket.
“In spite of these danger signals
flying in every cotton s*te, plans
are being made everywhere to in
crease cotton acreage in 1925. This
can only be done at the expanse
of cutting down food and grain acres
at a time when food and grain is high
and going higher every week.
“I ant no alarmist, but the present
tendency, the intent to plant the whole
faCu 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' got the cotton grower. Ths
situation look; just ts hazardous to me
;.s In 1920. uni •. the eratfe 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 losing game. There
is only one way to safeguard 1925
Plan for and plant enough food, grain
and forage acres to insure your family
and live stock full food supply with
out buying from store or feed dealer
In this don’t forgot mat a good bis
home garden is a wonderful food
source. With food and live stoclt
-nply provided for. a good living t
ured, regard 1- ss of cotton prices.’

ACCURSED DISTRIBUTION.
SAMUEL RUBEL, HE SAVED.
THEY PRAYED, IT RAINED.
V/E EAT TOO MUCH.
It costs more to carry a sack
of potatoes from the train to a
store in New York City than it
does to ship the sack 1,100 miles
by railroad
Tii? farmer raises the calf, weans
it, feeds it, feeds and milks the
grown cow, and gets for the milk
a quarter of the money paid by

You can bring freight across the
Atlantic or Pacific Ocean for less
than it costs to take it across the
North Iliver in New York City.
'The curse of business is the high
cost of. distribution. Production

are as backward as Fiji Islanders.
Samuel Eubel came from Russia
a few years ago. He hadn’t a
dollar, but he did have a distinct
idea that a dollar was worth hav
ing; also he realized that the only
way to have many dollars is to
save the first few. A little while
ago he was peddling coal for a
living, today he is head of his own
$50,000,000 ice and coal concern.
Young gentlemen, it pays to save
even a LITTLE.
The prices of automobile tires
have gone up from 10 to 12 per

“Howdy King!” in true Ameri

Last week, led by the Rotary
Club, the business men of Denver
standing in silence for two minutes’
prayed for rain, and the next
night, in almost every part of the
State, rain fell in torrents, and the
weather bureau announces more.
* Nothing could be more edifying
but farmers in Colorado are puz

Providence should answer the
prayers of business men that only
deal in crops after ignoring the
prayers and heavy losses of the
farmers that RAISE the crops.
However, the ways of Providence
are beyond human understanding,,
and farmers ought to know it.
It is possible to be a criminal
and not be a complete fool. Harry
Valkes, of Pittsburgh, makes and
sells bootleg whiskey. He tells
the Judge: “It is all right to sell,
but to drink myself, nothing do
ing. Only fools drink now; wise
ones sell.”
Business on a big .scale is grow
ing in big things and little things.
One chain of grocery stores does
a business of more than $352,000,
000 a year.
One fiv< and ten cent store chain
a little while ago announced as its
ambition a business of $00,000,000
a year. It does now’ more than
$250,000,000 a year.
In retail business there is un
limited prosperity for the man
that understands the meaning and
use of the three magic words
“ORGANIZE, DEPUTIZE, SU
PERVISE.”
Professor Max Rubner, of Berlin,
says Americans eat more on the
average 3,308 calories daily—
than any other nation. England
comes next, with 2,997 calories.
It is certain that this country
eats too much, and wastes about
as much as it eats. Half we eat
keeps us alive. One quarter keeps
the doctors alive, and one quarter
supports the undertakers and cem
etery owners. Eat half, leave the
table for ten minutes, and once
digestion starts you’ll knovr you’ve
eaten enough.
