WELL BALANCED FARM

By L. R. LMiley
With a well balanced farm pro
gram a farmer should grow every
food and feed crop adapted to the
•oil and climate. This type of farm
program will help to make the farm
self-sustaining. The question is
tinuously asked: “How can I con
tinue to farm when there is
strict ion placed on the number of
acres of cotton and peanuts that I
may produce on my farm?” A care-
It has been conclusively demon
strated that wheat for home con
sumption may be grown in Baldwin
county, and with a wheat mill in the
county, a high grade of flour can be
produced.
The Blue-stem variety of wheat
is probably one of the best to be
grown in this county. The seed
should be treated for smut before
sown. This may be done by using
the following: Dissolve one pound
bluestone (cooper slphae) in four
gallons of water. This amount is suf
ficient to treat four bushels of
wheat. Spread the grain in a thin
layer on a tight, clean floor and
sprinkle thoroughly with this mix

In Baldwin rounty cotton and
peanuts are major crops, grown to
meet expenses. Taxes must be paid,
crop production financed, and pro
ceeds must be large enough to sup
ply food for laborers and feed for
livestock.
If every farmer would make a
careful appraisal of his crops, the
expenses incurred in their produc
tion and the expenses of purchas
ing food and feed that might be
grown on the farm, in most instances
it would be found that food and
feed crops could be grriwn more
economically than they could be
purchased from the proceeds of the
two major crops, cotton and pea

Gentlemen:
In submitting my Annual Report
for the “Conference Year" just
closing; I wish to say that this—
my thirteenth year as Chaplain of
the State Prison has been in many
respects the best of all the years.
It is not necessary to enumerate
items that I have reported In the
past years; but only to say: all the
friends in all the states who have
ligious services have been held this
year in the gloom of the death cells,
with condemned men sent here to
die, and nineteen have gone to their
death in the Electric Chair, making
a total of one hundred and twenty-
eight to whom I have ministered
personally, and followed to their
death in the chair.
I have written nine hundred and
sixty-nine personal letters to new
men who have come in besides many
letters for men to their loved ones
at home.
In each of these personal letters I
enclose a copy of ooe of the Gos
pels. together with half a dozen Re
