Ken tucky has been a complete success to date . ' The success of the Kentucky glow ers Is due in large measure to their freedom from the one crop systeao. ac cording to the report, vrhlch States that in the land of blue grass, sleek cattle and fat hogs, the tobacco crop Is the big money maker because Ken tucky growers raise their food and feed at home Instead of paying for It with the proceeds from tobacco. The Directors from Virginia, and North Carolina, of the Cooperative Marketing Association, who studied the Burley Association within the past fortnight, are strongly advising the growers of the CarolAnaa and Virginia tt> plant more hay and corn, and to raise enough live stock this year to insure the enjoyment of such splendid profits from tobacco as the Barley Growers of Kentucky are celebrating; with the first sales in the hundred warehouses of their Cooperative Mar keting Association.
