DOES IT COST lOU TO CVL 1
TTVATE YOUR COTTON? j
The letters on cotton cultivation \
in our issue of May 23, were so time- '
ly, so practical, and so full of labor <
saving ideas that we cannot refrain
from again calling attention to thie
subject; \ \ .
Ctftton is the great money crop of
the South, and will probably continue
to be for many generations.
It la a crop almost Ideally adapted
to our climate produces fairly well
under adversities that would mean
failure with crops less hardy and recuperative,
and, when the lint only
la removed from the land, it Is one
of the least exhaustive crops known.
This combination of qualities maker
of cotton a really wpnderful crop
and that we have gro^vn It too lnex
penslovly and to o^Kotrn hurt Is not
,l|s fault but yattfir that of ourselves
ami our system, or lack of system,
of farming. The truth is that net
another crop in the world would
'have Stood the abuse and neglect the
cotton crop has had to endure.
But even with cotton there Is a
limit somewhere, and that limit has
already been reached on hundreds
of thousands of Southern farms. Ceti
sus figures Show that the average
per acre yield of cotton over the entire
South Is Jess than 200 pounds of
lint. It takes no genius to see, at
the present prices for labor, fertilizers,
land rent, and like Items, that
there cannot be a living wage in rals
lng cotton where only the av .r*ce
yield Is obtained. Right here Is one
of the South's most serious and pressing
problems, for, It goes without
saying, we can never have the highest
standards of rural living and citizenship
while 50 per cent of our farmers
are actually receiving only a
dollar a day or lens for their labor.
Methods of cultivation will by no
Ihl. nl.Akl<n,
for in producing profitable crops
we place rich land above aLl others
as the factor of overwhelming importance.
However, cultivation, par
llcularly at this season, is the
'thought that should he uppermost
in our minds. Particularly 1b it important
that as much expensive hard
labor as possible be dispensed with
and the coat of production correspondingly
reduced. Turn to the letters
in our issue of May 23 and appropriate
some of the ideas brouglil
'out in that experience meeting.?

Before removing a cap from a hottie

the bottle should be washed and care ter'

c4p should not be pushed down into on
the milk. It may bo easily removed j*013
with a sharp pointed instrument ea
without injuring the contents. The
bottle when once open should be kept ran
covered and the milk should be kept em
in the original bottle until it Is used

gUee may be put over the top of the at
bottle. 1
The bottle, when not lo use, should
of course, always he left in the refrigerator,

thing to do In such circumstances
Js to provide one's own milk bottle ^

most important. The board of *w'

, means be discouraged. The contain- ai
ers should be washed in cold water
first and finally in warm water beforo
they are returned to tho fanner n'

that require pure milk to be delivI
