BUYING AND SELLING.
A few wi i ks ago wo listened to a prom
inent and .■iic.-t ■..- ful farmer of Georgia as
lie m idi a. plain and practical talk at a
farin'i';,’ rn, "ting. in one of tin- poor, st
iii'ttons of a lounly in east Georgia, lie.
Was talking of farnn rs Inning on a er.-dit,
and related some reei nt personal exp.-ri

\erj badly damag'd. It was too late to
plant his cotton over, and he was compi lied
to lace tin.' prospect of a ' imp of one b.'ilo

acres, as he had b- l'ore anticipated. Ho j
I'd h.S practical Wile Ibid a council of I

buy nothing—not even necessaries-on a

his v. fe and children lound that they could

THE WEEKLY CONSTITUTION: ATLANTA, GA., MONDAY. DECEMBER 13, 1897.
H a
Ing purposes about the same as Sfk> pounds
; of cotton seed meal. The mills have usually
j given as much us 1,100 pounds of meal for
’ one ton of seed, the farmer to do the haul
ing at least one way. So every farmer
may determine for himself how far he can
afford to haul his seed, and haul back the
meal. And we would also get back the
hulls, too, if costing no more than $1 a
ton. They are worth more, than that for
feeding, but not for manuring.
Again: Having exchang'd his seed for
meal, the farmer will find it much more
profitable to feed the meal to his cattle,
along with the hulls, and apply the manure
from these animals to his crops instead of
the meal direct.
Ts carefully saved—both liquid and solid
the manure from cattle (especially fatten
ing animals) fed on cotton meal and hulls
will be worth as much to the crops as If
the nu-al be applied directly to them. It 1.-;
the timil that makes the manure valuable
not the hulls—which produce very poor
manure. It. J. R.
