DICKEL DIBTILUAI COMPANY, LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY • 86 PROOF Farmer Soured On One Crop Farming James Jones, Negro farmer of Warfenton, Route 2, says, “I’m through with the one crop system of farming.” Warren County Negro Agent C. S. Wynn says that Jones feels that j one crop larming is too demanding ! for the risk involved. Wynn ex plairrn that his tobacco crop worked him the entire 12 months of the iyear and left him no time to seed, I pastures and grain that he needs to ; complete his farming operation. In changing his. farming to a more diversified type, Jones is planning; a swine pxijw-t as a side line. He has already started his brood sows. Jones also plans to seed his tins tures the last of February or tlw first of March. He will use: the , surplus grain on his farm for swi.h feed for his gilts until his supple mentary and permanent pastures are ready to be grazed.
