ADVISES CAUTION IN
DIVERSIFYING CROPS
; Commissioner Page Says Seek
First a living at Home and
Prosperity Will be Added
The agitation of the subject
of diversification during the
fall opened the way for a
good many to urge diversifi
cation who are the wisest
counsellors about farming.
The subject of diversification
is broad and deep and has
many angles. It is an easy
matter to advise a man to di
versify his crops and leave
the subject there: but that is
not all.
The man who diversifies his
crop is going to succeed or
fail, accordingly as he does
it. Some who have been
won to diversification, and
away from so much cotton
: and corn are going to sub
stitute crops that will involve
them in failure, just as sure
ly as cotton and corn would.
Some are going largely into
the growing of potatoes,
others are turning their at
tention to canteloupes, wat
ermelons, cabbages, etc. It
does not matter so much what
crops are grown, if they are
produced at the lowest cost,
and can be marketed at
profit.
However it should be re
membered that diversifica
tion does not mean to quit
raising one thing and go to
raising another. Under that
plan, the same old troubles
would be met in a different
form. The lord says in the
good book to “Seek ye first
the kingdom of Heaven and
all else will be added you.”
In diversification it might be
as truly said to seek ye a liv
ing at home, then put your
surplus into any good money
crop, and prosperity will be
added unto you.
It is wise to produce first
of all. the necesaries for
home and farm use, and then
grow the staple crops, such
as corn and cotton. Cotton
a good money crop, if not de
pended on to buy everything
else. Corn is a fine surplus
crop. If it cannot de sold for
cash at a good profit it can be
fed to stock, and sold at a
god price that way. A bush
el of corn will make ten
pounds of pork. But corn
should not be fed to grow
hogs. A little corn fed to
growing hogs is all right
but if you depend on corn en
tirely to grow hogs, you will
lose money. Pasture, sorg
hum, peas, soy beans, rape,
skimmed milk, middlings, rice
polish, etc., are things to
grow hogs with, and corn is
the thinir to fatten them for
the market with.
* Do not go too strong on po
tatoes and truck, unless you
are a truck farmer. Anyway,
a variety is beter than a single
crop. Get into the stock bus
iness as soon as you can
Get hog vaccination started in
your neighborhood and
i stop hog cholera. You can
! do it.
Theere will not be more
than half as much fertilizei
used this year as last. The
people are too poor to buj
it. There will be no fertiliz
e r or feed inspection aftei
April 1 ; you should be care
I t'ul what you buy and pat
ronize only the most reliable
firms.
