A large number of fanners of Ca . barrus county met today at the court house to discues a better system of . farming in the county. R. D. Goodman, county agent, , called the meeting to order in the absence of the chairman and stated i that the object of the meeting was to discuss better farming for North Car olina. K. S. Millsaps, district agent, was the principal speaker. Mr. Millsaps told some of the reasons why cotton was the principal crop. He said that cotton was produced principally wiPli unskilled labor and that cotton ns a crop will stand more abuse than any other' farm crop. “It’s growth has been further increased by money be ing loaned in proportion to a farmer’s cotton acreage instead of loaning it: to produce his necessary food and j feed crops, and the cotton will take care of itself." He gave illustration after illustra tion of farmers who bad been sue-1 cessful by having as their principal j aim "producing what they needed on the farm." Ml-. Millsaps said: “You say that j you owe a debt, that you \iave to pro duce cotton to pay it; but how are; you going to pay a debt with the ■ price of a commodity being four to six cents per pound below cost of pro duction?" U. T). Goodman, county agent for Cabarrus county, told some of his ex-: perieuees. He said : “One man asked j me how to fix up his tobacco and I! told him to sell it aud give money to a neighbor to buy explosives to blow | out stumps and that both would bej better off." He spoke of lnnv money could be j made by the proper cure being given ] in poultry raising aud raising hogs j and also mentioned (he wrong moth- ' uds and said that using wrong rae. i-l ads would not mean a profit but a loss. It. H. Phillips. county agent of! Stanly county, offered good wishes tnj the farmers of Cabarrus county and I said that diversified farming is mak- 1 mg money for farmers in Stanly eoun-; ty. W. G. Yeager, county agent of Rowan county, was also at the meet-! ing and made a short talk. It was said that 40 per cent, of, the farm land of Cabarrus countyt was planted in cotton and 12 per, cent, planted in legume crops.

Tribune Bureau Sir Walter Hotel Raleigh, Jan, s.—The fanner who gets the most of his income from cot tnn accumulates less than the man Who grows some livestock or has some other cash crop along with the cot rSL ) -This, according to experts of the Mmol of apiculture at State Co lege, ii the answer to the question of who_ makes the most money, the'former who plants til cotton or the farmer Who plants a number of crops with cotton as an important one. A re cent study waa made of the relation ship between the rate at which farm ers accumulate wealth end the per cent Rge of the gross income of these Mime farmers Pint comes from cot ton. The savings were the average of the entire earning life of the farm er. ‘-‘The fans show," says the college Workers, "that those farmers who re ceived less thnn 40 |>er cent, of their focome from cotton had in-cumulated wealth nt the rate of S2B-1 per year. When the autitml income from cot ton went up from 41 per cent, to 70 per cent, the annual savings went down to Pile average of SI4G per year. OOqe fa l inen who received more than |>cr cent, of their total income from co lon added to their wealth only $7& per year. In other words, those farmers who de|>endeil upon cotton for three-fourths of their income dur ing all their past years of labor had gained in wealth ouly about one-third to!.'one-fourth as fast as those \v'io depended on cotton for less than a third of ilieir itn-oine.” The figures showed further that the farmer who got less than 40 per cent, of his income from 1-01100 and more tbira 25 per cent, of his income fropi. livestock made the most money on the average. Those farmers w"io got more than a fourth of their in come from livestock increased their wniltli to an average of $240 per vtkr. This, state the college men, is iitty another sifuml argument for bet-1 teri bulanced forming this year. FUNERAL SERVICE FOR CARL V.
