The Fault in Farming Over The South
The same old scratching with a
single mule and a tooth-pick plow,
the same old methods of cultivation
and the same old results, that the
the great book of nature that the
etcator has spread before them. They
have learned nothing in relation to
the composition of soils, for that la
fertilizer men anu the merchants own j ic he found in books. They know
the cotton These arc the men who nothing about the life of plants, haw
do not believe In “book farming." I they grow and feed from air and soil,
and the greatest desire of their lives '»for ft Is books that teach this, and
is a "formula'' tnat will give them '‘they do not read books. If another
more cotton to sell and w*lll not cost
much. These are the nten who keep j
no stock and do ndi even have milk I
lor their coffee. And vet, I know
at leasi cue man, who went in debt |
for a piece of land as poor as any of
the sand hills of the south, and who.
folks said, was agreeing to pay time
times what the land was worth. But j
today, that man who started without j
a cent lives in a fine house, has a •
barn bigger than nlinost any church,
and last year cit ared $29,000, and
has refused $230 an acre for ihe old j
sandy land he bought years ago lor j
a little over $20 a:i acre, when no
one thought it worth half that much.
But he believed In book farming, an.1 |
has made a fortune because no acted |
on his belief. He does not tell any
one that his land Is poor, though he
likts to tell how poor it once was. I
I know a man who Inherited a fair
ly good farm, but did not believe In
"book farming." He thought that
farming was simply hard work ami
drudgery, but he knew of nothing
hotter. He lias lived years, and ’the
farm Is poorer than when he took
possession of It. He has worked j
hard, lived frugally, has no bad or ex
pensive habits, but he Is no better off
than when he started, simply because
he did not believe in farming, and
really has no love for it.
1 know another man who Inherited
a farm no better, but has'been a stu- j
dent, has ( read and studied all the I
bulletins of his experiment station. |
He went to work to Improve Ills laud |
and Improve the seed he plants. He
has Improved his ooru till his whole
ctop is sold for seed every yenri for
from $2.00 to $2.73 per bushel, and
he buys all the corn he feeds from
the men who do not believe in book
farming. His wheat crop also goes
largely- for 3eed, tor he has Improved
LI? t;..J wheat, too, and rarely mike?
less than forty bushels per acre, and
generally more. His corn on a clover
sod will probably make hlut 1,50J
bushels this summer, and all but the
Ups and butts will be sold at a fancy
price for seed, for he took all the Ilrsc
prizes at the corn shows last tali
against the whole country and fitly
bushels of corn per acre would be p
(lend failure In his fields. He Is st HI
just past forty y< ars, and no one can
prophesy what he will bring his seed
and his farm to produce yet, for he
rover lets up In the breeding and it.u
provement of the seid corn.
