Dec- S?Though Jetton growing has been much malgned hy those who believe it a curse ather than a benefit to good farmng in North Carolina, farmers of Caldwell County are finding the irop an added benefit to their farm ppetbtions after trying it for the 'irat time this year. "Not only is cotton growing adding i new money crop to our country," lays farm agent D. W. M. Roberts in i resent report to the State College ixtension division, "But it is also in:reasi(ig our natural advantages for profitable dairying. Nearly all of he dairymen have been producing all iheir own feed with the exception >f cottonseed! meal. Now that a lumber of them ar egrowing cotton, hey are either having the seed 'rushed or exchanged for meal thus naking complete our plans for growng all dai'iy feed at home." Jitr. Roberat has found that nearly ill the prognesive dairymen of Caldvell County are feeding silage, and loybean, cowpea or clover hay for oughnge. For a grain ration they ire using three parts of corn meal, two parts of cottonseed meal and ofie part of ground Oats.. To this they idd one percent of salt.- Now that :otton growing has spread into the lourttry from the dsstern section, ihesb growers are enabled to produce every [pound of their feed at home. Many farmers in Caldwell County have small power plants and1 are (rinding their own feed and because they are able to grow all feed at iorhe bnd to prepare it for feeding as veil, an increasingly large number are making [nice profits from the Jairy industry. Host of tlfe daffiy ncn sell only butterfat to local rreameries leaving the skimmilk for use at home. As a result of the new crop, therefore, Mr. Baberta finds that tha gospel of diver rifled -terming has been promote^ln his county. ^Farmers of Stanly County are harvesting 100 bushels and over of les->edesa seed per acre this fall. One farmer uSth a mowing irlichlne and seed pan attached harvested 75 bushels in lea sthan 20 hours and was offered (( per bushel for all that he would not need.
