The Land of Opportunity?Who I Shall Possess It? ( Recognition of the fact that the South ia a land of wonderful opportunity?indeed, to. the farmer, the land of opportunity?ia becoming general. About a vear ago Secretary of Agriculture James Wilson "old the Hditor df the Progressive Farraet an J Gazette, that with good farming average Southern lands would be worth fclOO an acre in aix f ^ or seven years. We have printed, ''<JD too, the conviction of a leading Iowa stockman that the South is the livo stook country ot the future. It has not been long since Collier's Weekly spoke of the South as "The Next ?f Weet." Better still, Southern farmera are themselves coming to realize undreamed of possibilities in the land which they own. Big corn crops hare become so common as to attract little attention, "rfless tbey are very big. Indeed, wlien 500 I ia fo in nna AAitnfn 7A Ka? "wjw " UUB wuuvj ?v "HI rele of oorn to the acre, itia evident tbat the South is, as we have said, the real Corn Belt. Two bales of cotton to the acre is now recognized as an attainable ideal,; add some men make more. Men are making hogs in the South for three or four cents a pound and selling them for 10 cents or more. Yes, the South is the land of op portunity for the alert, intelligent, progressive farmer. All over i there are waiting golden opportuni ties for such* farmers to soquire wealth and to do their part in making this land of oars what it sliou'd he?the fairest and most fruitful farming seotion in America. The one great question of' today is: "W ho is going to ptofit by these opportunities?" Who should profit by them, admits of no qt estion. They rightfully belong to the farmers who are now tending Southern soils and to their sons. If these farmers and farm boys neglect their rightful heritage, and do not bring ^ ? to their farm work the trained mipd j\ 1 and the earnest purposes whioh aret ineces ary to success in ally work, we inay depend upon it that" people i _ from other sections will oome and ^Bprofit-by the opportunities, which they neglect. Now, we are glad to sea people coming from other sections, because the South needs them. But what we wish to see, above all else, is an awakening of t ie farmers who belong in the South to the possibilities that lie latent in their so Is . to see them se^ abont studying the science of agriculture, improving their methods, taking a deeper interest in their werk, and so getting their rightful share ef the wealth that good farming in the South' is sure to produce. So to every reader we would make this appeal: Begin right_now te do better farming, to get better stock and tools, to make each day's labor Count fur more, to plant better seeds, to prepare the soil better and cultivate the | crops more thoroughly; above all, to build up your joil and keep it fertile. For those who will do these things there are waiting splendid - -?opportunities?and?wonderful rewards Men and boys of-tbe South to day will you improve these opportuni ties and get your share of these rewards, or will yon go on in half~ hearted fashion and leave them tp d others??Raleigh (N. O.) Progres= iju? Faimer and Gazette. The Folly of Burning ofl .Woods and Pastures. 1 f Dr. Cooper Curtice, of the United States Department of Agrioulture, who has had many years experience j in tiek eradication work, says that the idea that horning off the forests will get rid of the cattle tick is all ^rrong. "It is true that at certain t ^ines of the year burning the "gran on an enclosed field may rerooye the-; ticks wherever the fire gravels, hut even then many places remain unburned and the owner depends on the fire for eradication, and consequently fails. Whenever the', grass is repeatly burned, the roots become eventually destroyed, the sweeter grasses give way to the more resistant, and fishily the latter perish. Finag the leaves has not eradicated tick, although followed for years;** Fanning with fire is pretty generally tery poor farming, and unrestrained fire in ajorest i? always harmfulRaleigh, (N. O.)
