ROOM FOR MORE PRODUCTION
Editor of The Journal.—1 read a
statement in your paper last week
sent out by the State Department ot
Mines, Manufacture * and Agricultuie.
giving ihe total amount of feed sold
in Arkam "« during the year ending
January 1, 1020. Now, $16,'JS0,00(J
worth of feed shipped into the state
in on. year, is, or oiryht to be, a sun
proof that there is an under ptoe.j
tnm, and I fear there will be an u>
der production until there i.-, a chan.
f irst, even here in our township the
landlord has held some of us farmer
to a one-kind crop, (cotton). The
landlord could or should encourage d
versification.
Then, again, the farmer is nut the
only one that is consuming th
amount of feed, for there are tin u -
ands of pounds that goes to cits
towns, contractors and mill men, t •
be consumed by their teams. There
is, as a matter of fact, an under pro
duction. The faimers of Arkansa
have not given the study to the epic
tion of supply and demand and they
have not acted in harmony.
There is great need for intelligent
co-operation among the farmers, both
in production and distribution. Tie
fact is, our transportation system has
been built up without consulting the
interests of the farmer. Large cen
ters have been built up with design
of making more business for the rail
roads. In other words, with a view
cf making transportation for loi
d istance necessary.
Say, for example, that instead of
having one great commercial center
with a population of a million people,
we had 20 cities of SO,000 each scat
tered over the territory which feed:
this one distant city. It is evident
that more than half of the transpor
tation over railroads would be ui
necessary, and the consumer and pro
ducer saved a large part of the cost
of transportation.
I think, indeed, that there always
will hi1 need for all the world can
produce. It is absurb to talk about
over-production while millions of peo
ple of the world are suffering for
food. There is but little hope for . :
increase in production with our pro
ent wasteful system of distribution
and the farmer at the mercy of those
who control the food and feed pri
duets. 1 am filled with hone that in
the next decade we will see a new
order of things in this old world; that
the business world will recognize the
■ rut h that narrow selfishness does
not pay as well in dollars and cents
a- a broad general fair policy, which
does justice to all.
Men will learn, 1 hope, that just as
a matter of cold business, love pays
better than strife.
There are several ways a farmer
can increase production. One ade
quate and effective remedy should b
some reasonable, definite government
restrictions on the amount of land
that one man n ay own or cultivate. If
he can properly eulitvate only 80
acres then he should not be allowed
to monopolize a whole section. This
would put more acres in cultivation,
reduce both the cost of production
and the high cost of living.
Co-operation is more profitable
than tin* competitive system, bused
on the old theory that the strong
have a right to crush the weak, and
that it is fair in business to < \a. t all
the traffic will bear.
Respectfully,
W. TOM JERNIOAN.

Many a farmer who has made
quality his slogan has realized more
for his products of less quantity than
has his neighbor who grew quantity
i>ut his package or market stock lack
1,; in quality.
In fruits there should he a fixed
standard of fruit and package-. This
results in securing top prices, even
though choice grade brings so much
men on the market that the grower
realizes the most for the enti-e crop.
Another feature of this is that of
establishing a reputation for the Ark
ansas product which will bring the
fruit belt into the prominence that
rightfully belongs to it a> d establish
a lasting demand for the products.
It goes a long way toward bringing
the market to Arkansas. By such
methods other fruit regions of the
country particularly the far west,
have built up an enviable reputation.

PLANTING TIME PROBLEMS
- /
Bradford Knapp has stated that!
this is a critical point in Arkansas;
. rieulture; that 40 cent cotton should !
it lead farmers into growing a great)
cu p this year without producing an j
abundant supply of other crops; for!
should the cotton yield be great and |
the European demand poor, together I
with h eh feed prices and the pres
et hit i- prices of everything else
(which "H’stands the high cotton!

phatically urges the growing of great-;
ci food and feed crops.
At a recent meeting of farmers at
j .M.inphir the. following reeommenda-;
| .ions were adopted, as a safe policy:
“At this time there is a great
i - rtu; e of feed and forage. To meet)
condition farmers should use [
j early rape for hogs and spring oats i
| for early pastures, hay and feed and
■ a mall acreage of early corn.”
“1,1 crops. These are more im
portant in PJ20 than ever. There
should be an increase rather than a
ii-crease in the acreage of corti, hay
.Hid other feeds. The high prices of ;
ila e products when brought in from
other sec'/ons make it imperative.
“Livestock. The South has made
c.ieat progress in livestock production.
Her w nderful increase in fine bred
'tuck has challenged the admiration i
>f tht entire country. To throw this
aside and go out of the industry is
t er folly. Our breeding stock, the
foundation of the industry, should be
kept and maintained with provisions
of home grown feed.
“Food and support of family. The

: A WORLD
I REBUILT
By the Golden Rule
not by the rule of Gold
i'T'HIRTY denominatioi s of the Chu-ch are uniting in
i simultaneous campaign in the w ek of April 25th
May 2nd.
They are uniting because th< 1 t* fore the Church is
too great for any one c: : in it ion; because th« re must be
no duplication of effort. now ,tt .
These churches know that i', • world need; many things
j but it needs Faith most of all.
They know that there can be no hi; .1 hit ion of our
economic problems that is not a spirit’ 1 i- lu' on, based
on the teachings of j scs Christ : id Hi C den Rule
They have had the courage to survey th whole task
and to ask for a budget nrge enough to sustain (l; the
work abroad. (2) the work at home including the church's
part in the huge task of Americanization, (3) the colleges
and (4) hospitals supported by the Churches. 5 i the reli
gious training of the young, and to provide (6) a living
wage for the Church's ministers.
The budget is large in the aggregate; yet
if each person who loves America would
increase his contribution by only a few
dollars the whole amount would be
easily subscribed.
We face the task of rebuilding the world.
Let the cornerstone be a strong and vital
church in every American community.
and the measuring rod by which the
builders build must be the Golden Rule
