Some Queer Things in KoehiiHle County
Why can’t farmers generally make
it ti rt of their business to hitild nnd
take care of their soils, when lliey
know that it pays several dollars Ituek
for o:u<li dollar put in to if. and when
they know by cxiierienee that there is
no money to he made by continuing
to farm thin |w>o r land, and that there
is good profit in farming good land,
and that such crops at veteli Is the
cheapest fertilizer they can buy?
Why will a man pull fodder when
one acre of alfalfa will make more and
licit r mule feed than four tliousand
hrndles of fodder, and when pulling
folder hurts his corn lmt alfalfa
takes tin 1 pi are of all the fodder and
half of the corn in fissling mules?
Why will a farmer lei his good soil
wash away when he can build good
terraces to hold it so it will remain
fit to cultivate?
Wily will a farmer not s|>en<i four
to five dollars an acre to sow vetch
when it is clearly dhown in several
places in Rockdale County that cot
ton or corn will make 'twice as much
when a crop of vetch is turned under?
When will we really get down to
business and do as we know we
should do.
