Many theorists who are old enough
to know better are advocating that a
man who produces all that he can
on hla farm Is foolish,' because they
have noted at various times that small
crops have sold for more money In
the aggregate than larger crops.
“Suppose In a crop-failure year that
corn shonld go to flO a bushel? If
you have no corn what good would
that do you? Would It be better for
a few fanners who have corn to make
big money out of the farmers In the
crop-failure section and others who
have no corn?
“Suppose every man should cot
down his acreage of cotton to boost
the price. Would the mam with the
smallest amount of cotton get rich?
Nobody asks you to grow cotton at a
loss; there are hundreds of things
Hint can be successfully grown at a
profit. Why be a slave to cotton? But
when you do grow cotton, grow on
each acre all you can profitably pro
duce. In order to do this yon will
have to know the eoBt of fertilizer,
labor, etc. Then It la a matter of
arithmetic.
"There are planters who make
money year after year In cotton. They
can make money often when you can't.
Whose fault Is tt? Many fall in busi
ness-farming as well as merchandis
ing. If you can't make It pay—get
out of It
Make Every Acre Work Profitably.
“The principle Involved Is the same
ob In manufacturing. The etndent of
economics knows that If a plant la
not used to Its full capacity there la
a consequent toes In the return on the
Investment The same !e true on an
acre of land," said Mr. Frank Baackes,
vice president of the American Steel
k Wire company, when asked about
the cotton situation. “In the press
service of one of our middle states
colleges, the dean says, ‘None of our
instructors are teaming tlie, farmer
that It Is either hlfcjlnjy'ot his
greater advantage under peace condi
tions to secure a maximum produc
tion regardless of other economic con
siderations!” Exactly so; but.such
advice must be made definite In order
that the lay and Inefficient may npt
take tt as an excnse to loaf on the
Job.
“tt Is true that If every factory In
the United States should make noth
ing but collar buttons we would soon
have more collar buttons than could
be disposed of; and the same thing Is
true of farming. Do not ,be misled—
every farmer must produce all of the
corn, oata, hay, forage, wheat, sirup,
Irish and sweet potatoes, vegetables,
milk; batter, fruit and all other prod
ucts of the soil first, to properly nour
ish his own household, and, second, to
feed the outside world.
Distribution Usually to Blame.
“The trouble is not usually lu over
production. Distribution Is to blnme
for most of the trouble, although of
course there Is always the danger
that too many fanners will manufac
ture collar buttons, so to speak, when
they ought to be balancing the world’s
ration.
"The bureku of markets has under
taken, this problem—that Is, to advise
so far ns possible whnt to grow, but
the farmer is doing ns he always has
done. If the price of potatoes Is high
In the fall he grows potatoes until he
gluts the market. Next year he grows
no potatoes, and the third year po
tatoes are high again. The wlae man
■does not attempt to keep all of his
eggs in One basket.
“The farm la a factory and the
same advice Is given to formers that
has been adopted ‘by other manufac
turers; Ton can't make a profit un
less you know jour costs. Standard
ize your products.
"No market scheme, whether of co
operation or legislation, cun long main
tain a superior price for an inferior
commodity.
“Farmers abouAd first maintain
themselves and family and labor on
their own farms; and this applies to
cotton lp the South and to wheat In
the North. I have no patience with a
pile of tin cans at the hack dour of
the farmhouse.”
