iibly you havlp never handled it be
fore. Don't Become Panic Stricken.
The weevil has come to "gather
his Jewell" the fanners who will
iollow Mother Nature's laws in their
agricultural practice. Such will
make better farmers titan they now
are. Others will go into "outer dark
ness where there shall be weeping,
wailing and gnashing of teeth"
iinancialU. Smile at this if you
will, but remember that "he laughs
best who laughs last."
We have recently made a co-ope-ative
order for vetch and other cover
crop seed of several hundred pounds,
but this represents only a very small
percent of farmers who should begin
improvement this fall.
Early in August, we published a
notice of this service and offered our
assistance with the caution not to
be too late "you can lead a horse
to water, hut you can't make him
drink."
"The Trucking Business?"
Remember Rockingham's market
last spring and summer and then
remember how you fed those cab
bages to cows an t hogs at a loss.
Rockingham ate nil she cotjd, but
she is not (if elephantine proportions
nor has she the capacity of a herd
of mammon ths. No, there's nothing
doing in that line except for, a few
who know how to specialize and
have been at it for years. '
"A Track Growers' Association For
Shipping?"
Oh, no! Not for Richmond county
& 1mm
farmers! .That would require co-op
cration such as is seen in the Peach
Growers' Association of Moore Coun
ty and of the eastern section of
Richmond. No, we won't do that
NOW, but we will when the weevil
gets through with us if we are yet
able. Then we will sign a co-operative
contract for a period of years,
to giow and sell a definite number
of acres of cucumbers, melons, sor
ghum (for syrup), potatoes, berries,
or anything else, and agree to stick
in order to sell truck in distant
markets at a profit.
"Plant Peaches?"
Yes, if you'll, first of all, become
a member of a Peach Growers' Asso
ciation that is reliable. Then wisely
select the orchard site and be
very certain that you know how to
plant, cultivate, prune and spray
for best results or be willing to do
(and do it) absolutely every thing
advised by those who are competent
to advise. But, thus again requires
co-operation the biggest word in
the fanners' "dictionary." If you
don't want to co-operate, just do as
the little calf did after running off
at milking time, with the "dry cat
tle" "learned the difference 4 when
he came to suck."
Under weevil infestation, we must
be agriculturally "bom again." We
haven't yet entered the gestation
period.
