The farmers of Western North Carolina know what it is tor smile and how to shake hands with, his fallow man. You know he feel? it, he nims it because the twinkle of his sturdy eye shows, that he is living a life of respect and con fidence. ..He is no longer a man that hesitates in his movesor1 looks upon the world with an air of doubt and suspicion. He realizes that he is a maiwmoiig men'; that his wits and oil1 senses are as gocnl and sound as that of other business men. In otJer words he is coming into his own rights and accepts his position as fair and just, and in co-operation and competition with, other interests, he is ready 'to carry his load' ably. . By no means has he reached the goal to which he aspires. There is a Jong way and a rough and difficult patn 10 travel neiorc such a condition is reached. His confidence is being strengthened and fortified ', by the things that are being done and which arc proving successful .undertakings, not in one line, but in several. There is no great system of agriculture in Western North Carolina which ''-we ran boast of as having been successful for the la.st '2a years. M any factors have entered in in prevent a system from lning practiced in the past, the transportation system or roads, has been a very great limiting factor, the human element another and lack of co-operative marketing, organizations-, . A great' system of agriculture is now being .developed. This system is being based upon cccperative effort, careful analysis of climatic and soil conditions,,. study of crops and liye stock suited to the section, study of markets for the crops and livestock and the co-operative marketing - of same. This is the only safe and proper method under which we can proceed. Results are already being secured; definite results. Already Western North Carolina is becoming known as a section that produces Choice, highly colored and flavored apples, berries, etc. With proper care, to pruning, spraying and fertilization,- apples will return excellent incomes.. - Seed pota toes from Western North Carolina have outyieldcd seed 'potatoes from any other 'section of the United States and Canada and matured just' a'-, early.. This is hecomng a very impor tant crop. Instead: of storing potatoes in the ground until potatoes from the north come ih. Ihey at? being- mar keted in th summer when the price is good and competition' small. Lettuce is a very promising" crop for this section, it is being grown in a small way this yer in several parts of Western -.North Carolina, except in Polk county, where a large acreage is being. put out i.r rpring sale. ' The growing of cabbage ..in Watau ga and Macon county is proving suc cessful. In Vva'.a-.a ihey have a co operative kraut factory find put on the market several hundred tons of choice kraut. . In Macon county the growers sold co-operatively, cabbage from 35 acres at a good price. Poultry and dairying are especially suited to Western North Carolina and is developing very rapidly, the selling of whole milk, cream and cheese is bringing good incomes to those en gaged in it. The shipping of yard eggs, and broiler's to' market is soon to become a worthy undertaking for every farmer. The production of feeder aiiltstock er cattle is on the decline audit is as well that "it is because they are usual ly produced at a loss. Those jnen that are producing that grade of cattle wi)l find that it will be moncv.in their ! pockets to produce baby beef which can be grenvn so much quicker and self for a much higher price. To develop this system to its most, prontable stage will require co-operation, work and a determination to stick, to the job closer during periods of stress and difficulty than in periods of prosperity. Prejudices and personal feelings , must, be eliminated and. the purpose and worthiness of the under taking must be ever present. Co-operative marketing organiza tions are absolutely necessary and no man should hinder its development by withholding his membership and sup port, It is to the, marketing organiza tions that we look for an outlet for the products , we produce on our farms. With co-operation in production and co-operation in marketing, we can forward the agricultural develop ment in Western North Carolina rapidly. JNOi vV. GOODMAN, Jr. District Agent. s SOY BEANS.
