MUST QUIT EATING CROP BEFORE MADE South Must atop Time-Honorod Sys tem Of Economio Suicide, Says H. Q. Hastings* Atlanta., Qa.—(Special.)—“The peo ple of the south must quit eating their cotton or other so-called ‘cash crop’ before it is made if they ever expect to accumulate wealth and have the comforts and luxuries of life due them," aays H. G. Hastings, agricul tural vice president of the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce, and a fore most authority on farm conditions in the southeast. "The south must stop forever its time-honored system of economic sui cide," says Mr. Hastings. “Advance steps were made last year toward a condition of farm Independence in the Cotton Bolt. They were forced steps, it is true, buttthey marked an advance just the same, and more bread and meat, more grain, forage and other food and feed stuffs Were made in 1915 than ever before, with the result there are tons of thousands of farm ers better off than in past years, despite short crops jmd business de pression. ■ .' v - • “With higher cofitm prices, it is going • to be a gr&t temptation to drop back into the bid habit of put ting cotton, or whatever other cash crop one may be growing, in pawn for bread and meat. We are suffer ing today from the old system forc ed on us by conditions following the Civil war, necessary then, but unnec essary now. "Year after year we have stayed in the same old rut as a matter of habit, eating our crops, so to speak, before they were made, a financially suicidal policy for the farmer, each year put ting his nose a little closer to the credit grindstone. “If the south had not been so rich in natural resources, this system would have bankrupted us long ago. What's the answer? It is home pro duction by each farmer of every dol lar’s worth of food and grain supplies needed on his farm that it is possi ble to grow on his own acres. This means good big home gardens; hogs, chickens, cows and something to feed them on through the year.” Get Bid of a Backing La Grippe Cough—It Weakens.
