Henry Ford Sees Better
Day for American Farmer

THE WAYNESVILLE MOUNTAINEER
Mr. Ford Says Public Must Rea
lize That "Farm And Shop"
Need Products Of Other
DETROIT. Henry Ford, whose
genius carried him to world industrial
heights, forsees a better day for the
American farmer, through public
realization that:
"The farm and the shop each needs
what the other produces."
This inscription on the wall of the
runi rotunda at Dearborn, charac
terizes Mr. Kurd's idea of a "natural
partnership" between agriculture and
industry.
It is his theory that agriculture and
industry suffer from ailments which
can be cured bv a partnership.
Said Mr. Ford:
"Husiness is only exchange of goods.
If we want the farmer to be our cus
tomer, we must find a way t0 become
his customer."
That is exactly what Mr. Ford set
out to do fdx years ao. The fact that
he had passed thr"0 score and ifive
milestones at the time did not deter
him. lie is a man of seemingly tire
less energy.
Experimentation and development
lock time.
COMING FAST
Today, however, Mr. Ford declared
the partnership is "coming so fast
that we can hardly keep up with it."
It u an unsual story, a story of
accomplishment, centering about the
soybean, the farm product which has
A Three Days' Cough

trouble may be brewing and you can
not afford to take a chance with any
thing less than Creomulsion, which

phlegm is loosened and expelled.

THE CHAMPION
SHOE SHOP
Next to Western Union
found a place in industry, although
for thousands of years it was known
only as a food for numan beings and
animals.
Laboratories were set up and va
rious farm products were subjected
to experiments. It has found that oils,
proteins, carbohydrates and fibers,
valuable to American industry could
be obtained. The soybean offered
one 0f tnt greatest possibilites, both
agriculture and industry being con
sidered. Other products were not for
gotten, but it wa6 decided to concen
trate on soybeans. "There was imme
diate need," Mr. Ford believed, "for
the American farmer to become an in
dustrial supplier and an industrial
worker to aid himself in bettering his
financial condition."
SOYBEANS I'LANTED
Soybeans were planted on Ford
acres. Cultivation as well as process
ing experiment continued.
The oil from the beans was found to
contain matter which could be used
in making an enamel for painting au
tomobile bodies. It was also discov
ered that the oil was quite effective
mixed with Vand to make foundry
cores.
The meal, or residue after the oil
was extracted is an excellent food for
cattle because of it high protein con
tent of 45 per cent. In the laborato
ries it was discovered that it could
be used in the composition for mak
ing plastic mouldings, the horn but
ton, the gear shift lever ball, the dis
tributor case and cover, window trim
strips and other moulded articles.
Thousands of gallons of oil and
thousands of bushels 0f meal from
beans harvested from the 4,000,000
acres planted in the United States
this yea- will go into industrial pro
ducts. The present market price of
the beans is around $1.18 a bushel
and the yield varies from 16 to 20
bushels to the acre.
"We are still experimenting," Mr.
Ford remarked today as he walked
through a soybean field on one of his
farms, just a.-ross the road from the
house where he was born 73 years
ago last July.
Suddenly he stopped, reached down
and pulled up a plant and examined
the roots.
GOOD ROTATION CROP
"It is a good rotation crop," he said,
pointing to several little balls in the
roots. "That is nitrogen, a eoil build
er. It is a drought resisting plant.
Much of its food is absorbed from air
through leaves."
Mr. Ford continued to walk
through the field examining pods con
taining the beans and talking as he
went along.
'You know," he said, "it a good
crop for farmers. The beans can be
harvested after all the other outdoor
fall work has been finished. It does
not hurt the beans to have them
freeze. And they don't require a
great deal of cultivation."
Carrying still further his idea that
the farmer become an industrial work
er as well as a supplier Mr. Ford has
developed a processing unit which
he believes could be purchased or built
by a group of farmers at a cost of
from $,'1,000 to $4,000. The farmers,
he contends could process their beans,
extracting the oil, during the winter
months when there is little work on
the farm. The oil would be sold for
industrial purposes and they could
either sell the meal or feed it to their
livestock.

North Carolina leads all other
states in the value of garden vegeta
bles grown for home use.
That is the conclusion reached by
M. E. Gardner, extension horticultur
ist at State College, after studying
figure recently released by the bu
reau of the census, U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture.
The figures did not cover Irish po
tatoes, but they included the other
principal vegetables grown in Amer
ican gardens. Mississippi stood next
to North Carolina, and Tennessee
ranked third.
The value of North Carolina's
crop of vegetables grown for home
use was placed at $9,031,010. The
Mississippi and Tennessee valuations
were, between eight and nine million
dollars. .
In 1935, North Carolina farmers
also raised 95,684 acres of garden
vegetables for sale, not counting Irish
and sweet potatoes, Gardner observed.
This acreage was divided thus:
Beans, 22,009 acres; cabbage, 8,518
acres; sweet corn, 9,019 acres; toma
toes, 5,420 acres; watermellons,
20.240 acres, and other vegetables
except potatoes, 29,878 acres.
Gardner pointed out that the in
creased production and consumption
of garden vegetables over the nation
indicates a change in the dietary
habits of the American people.
This is particularly true in North
Carolina, he went on, where the peo
ple are paying more attention to a
balanced diet and where farmers are
seeking to live at home by producing
on the farm as much of their food re
quirements as possible,
The greater consumption of gar
den vegetables is not only conductive
to better health, he added, but it is
also providing many families with
another welcome source of cash income.'
It is time to begin to think about
saving lespedeza seed for next year.

number of excel
lent patches of ,les

in our office two

We will dispose of the two seea
