Secret Of Farm
Success in County
Gastonia Gazette.
The trip taken to Cleveland
county by the group of Gaston
fanners, a detailed account which
is given elsewhere, ought to' fie
very helpful. The local farmers
saw something of the workings of
a successful creamery, r. rare thing
in these parts indeed. It is all in
the management. There can he
only one boss and what he says
must go. The trouble with most co
operative affairs is that there are
about as many bosses as there are
stockholders.
An examination and study of this
creamery in Shelby showed the
farmers that there must be a sur
plus of milk in a community before
a creamery will pay, and, too, that
they must be satisfied with less for
their milk than they can get from
retailing it. Some 1,200 farmers
patronize the Shelby creamery,
none of whom have very large dairj
herds. Most of them have only
five or six cows and what milk they
sell is over and above what they
use at home. It is collected by route
drivers. The farmer sets his milk
out by the side of the road and
that is all he docs. Much of the sue
ce.'.s depends on the skill of the
collector.
The poultry business is going
fire in Cleveland county. Several
farmers are going into the business
on rather largo scale and are more
than making good at it. Elsewhere
is related the story of the man who
is making 200 per cent profit on
his broilers.
Cleveland is a big cotton-grow
ing county. More than 40,000 bales
will be raised this year, nearly
50,000. They go in for cotton and
fertilize heavily.
The Shelby cold storage plant,
is a privately owned concern, deal
ing mainly in eggs. But it shows
v. hat can be done with* other per
ishable stuff. These eggs ars
bought up in the earjv spring and
summer at very low prices, shinped
to lb's storage plant and kept there
al summer. In the fall and winter
they are sold on the northern mark
ets at a fancy price.
There are hut few big dairt
herds in Cleveland c-ounty. Most of
the milk comes from small herds.
The Clevelanders raise a great
deal of foodstuffs. Already they arc
beginning to make ihe annual crop
of homemade molasses. On several
farms we saw the cane mill in op
eration, the patient old mule furn
ishing the motive power.
Perhaps the biggest secret of the
success of the Cleveland farmers
consists in the aid rendered by the
Cleveland board of agriculture. It if
a board composed of representative
men from every township and a
number of business men of the
town of Shelby. In this way the
farmers and business men are tied
together for the benefit of both.
If County Agent Altman can
crystalize the sentiment resulting
from the rtip into something tan
gible fer the farmers of Gaston
county, we shall soon see a revo
lutionary change in seme of the
methods. A more extensive outline
of the trip is given in the news
columns of the Gazette.
