But l.'iO acre weren't enough tJiought Mr. Hull. After all, th*f* were eight children, and most ol them wanted to far^. 8o, he ar- ran>?ed to buy a 40-acre farm' nearby. That paid fwr, he looked around for anothe? buy. Two years nfro, he bought JiHl-aer** farm in their comni«rfuty. ■ Already a p«tnership han been formed and "the two mar, ried sons are farm|r g ’wdth their pai'cntR. “I Sti^need more land,” says Mr. ffall, “for thr» other children who mrfy wish to stay on the faVm when they grow up.” And-he fet-ls like vcntnrinjr again, since the family is out of debt with all three farms paid fnt. He is casting about for, an other piece of land. Says he thinks about fifW acres will be enousrh to split up among hi.s children. The Halls put their lands to oofi nsp, too. TiRst ypfli^.. they planted 125 acres to ^orTl. 30 acres to cotton. 20 acres to pea nuts. three to sweet potatoes, two to sun-arcane for syrup, and a half-acre in the home smrden The re.st of their 340 acres are in w’oodland and kudzu and les pedzea pa.s.tures. Their corn crop is' not only a junjor cash enterpri,se. but it al so provides for the eight head of work.-itock. five cows; 50 hogs, and 70 chickens. Another im- porfnnt source of income is their form shop in which they repair theic own tools and those of the npighbors. “Our garden earns a lot for i^too,” says Mrs, Hall, “We dro’t sell much out of it, hut it saves us trips to the store and money in our pockets.” Lfr.
