McAullffe. I'd ten tltiies rather talk about th' singing hlrds ai.d tho beautiful flow ers and all the glories of Spring tha o O'irden the reading public wur some of the monotonous things tha creep Into life as necessities, but It must be done. It Is one of the In evitable things of life—this 'oil and never ending contest for supremacy In the struggle for existence. It takes work and care to bring about tha things of life that are worth while. There never was a flower garden made beautiful without someore tolling sev ernl years to make It so. No farm or fields ever brought returns with out gome tiller of the soil putting out his life blood In the battle. There is not much difference between th" soldier tinder arms and the mail with the hoe. Bbth fight against a stub born foe and both come to the same end with the lapse of years Is over and the course Is run. There Is one great pity, however that always comes surging through the heart when one thinks of the odds against the man with the hoe. Too often he Is a “private" In the rank- of the "tollers” without a general without a guide. He ne<ds educatloi drilling, as it were, to equip him hr his place In order to make a succesr of tho engagement. True, many c. us are grown old without acquirin' this knowledge but In the school o! experience one never grows too old to learn. We may be beyond tho years when we ran enter the hall of learning and grasp iltiw Ideas and new methods from the modern Helen title leaeher, who, by the way, is ul so a practical worker Just now; Yel there tire avenues open w u cre one cun pass along and gather Ideas that will profit him greatly. Walking without forethought, with iut planning today for tomorrow, Is Ike engaging In a task fraught with uncertainties and the travelers know ing that failure waits yonder at the end. Good preparation,, good seed, good cut lira! methods and a dozen other essentials points are now necessary to really become successful In fann ing. A man may devote Ills time, b" of untiring energy and determined t< v'n out in this matter, but unless he is properly trained and pluns for Ilfs work he Is handicapped to such at’ extent that he will wear his life away and accomplish nothing, while his neighbor, following a better plan, will )use along tne same road win success and, after all give less effort. In this connection, I want to say that the one crop system Is the cause if more worry than all the evils that iver invaded a farming section. It is >ot confined to cotton farming alone for It Is the same old story over, whether you go Into the grain belt, down in South America on the coffee plantations, into France with Its vine yards, or Germany with Its potatoes. The man who depends on one crop Is almost suro to suffer sooner or later. It Is doubly true when It comes to cotton farming, for the planter can not feed the cotton to his stock, he uannot utilize' It at home. It must be sold abroad, somewhere else, for what price he can procure. With a different system of farming raising cotton ns a surplus and de voting part of his time and attention to diversified farming, growing things needed at home, the outcome will be different. There are many crops tha' suggest themselves to tho farmers who will think, some of them almos ns old ns agriculture Itself, and yet so commonly neglected. Among thesi may be mentioned sweet potatoes in the South, sorghum, millet and various others. It is to some new ouos—old yet new to most folks—that 1 would call attention to In this sketch. These are artichokes, cow peas, nml Mexican June Corn. In every section of the South these crops will flourish and yield great returns. They are valuable because they will produce valuable Crops and at the same time ’•e'uiT acdpetking to the soil and to be farm. Alt of them can be used 0 groat advantage In various ways ;nd 1 consider no crop superior to •ow pers for bay mid for grazing. The many varieties to be had enables a arnifr to plant them from the mid He of A)ril until the last of July and 1 t results. This system gives graz ng and feed from the middle of July 'util frost, which ordinarily means he middle of November. They en rich the soil while providing feed and still they are not found on half the farms, the soli being rather given over to that fertility-destroying plant —cotton. Artichokes furnish a great source of feed, especially for hogs. It is easy to grow, some two to four hun dred bushels per acre and the hogs will dig their own supply as needed The time to plant artichokes It at hand and most any seedman adver tising in the Farmers' Union News will be glad to supply readers. They are easy to grow and unlike most root crops they arc not such a drain or. the soil. While they rob It of much of Its valuable plant food, still they return quite a quantity of vegetable matter and this Is essential to produc tlon. Mexican June Corn is comparative ly an unknown crop throughout the Eaatern half of the cat ton belt. A few years ago it was Introduced In some sections and many of the farmers did not know how to handle it, planting early in March when it all went to stalk, so to speak. It is very valuable for planting after oat* and never falls to make an abundant crop for it never rains too much, or the sun ever shines too much for It to be auceessfuL Its value as a forage plan, making aa immense amount of foliage, causes those who have tried it to place a Thinking About It!! I Two farmers met in the road one day-=“thought you said you had plowed that ten-acre field" said the first farmer. “No, I was only thinking about plowing it” said the second farmer. “Oh, I see; you merely turned it ov r er in your mind.” Now then, we’ve been turning over some things in our mind, and want to tell you about them.
