Sound farming practices and crop rotation in the

: CAMPAIGN AGAINST COTTON
The organized effort now being carried on to discredit
discourage the growing of cotton and to substitute
thetic fiber, would deal a terrible blow to Georgia ae in
ure, were it to succeed.

COTTONA FOOD CROP

ns 1 addition: to the value of cotton for its lint, there is _

land in Georgia on which cotton is one of the best
d crops that can Ge erown.

An average.acre of Georgia cotton land will produce
-half bale of cotton.
- he seed out of this one-half pale of cotton will pro-
an average of 75 pounds of cottonseed oil.

Tf you plant that same acre of land in corn, it would
duce about 12 bushels or 672 pounds of shelled corn.

. you feed this 672 pounds of shelled corn to a hog,

When the crusaders against cotton talk alibly hee

Relatively few people have any idea of the many m

kets that we would lose if we quit producing cotton.

DIVERSIFIED AGRICULTURE
We are all heartily in favor of diversified and self-s

taining agriculture, in so far as practical.

We must, however, always remember that prote

Most of our carbohydrate feeds come Ene ee

- Most of our protein feeds come from cottonseed, peanuts,

soybeans, sweet potatoes, meat and fish serap.

The more protein and carbohydrates we produce, t
more successful we can be with hogs, beef, dairy cattle an

erowing of peanuts in the peanut belt; when we encourage
the growing of sweet potatoes and when we encourage

_ growing of corn and other grains on land best suited for

possibly give to the development of pastures, dairying,

its founding year, there was one small dwelling

acres of land and 101 buildings.

The work of the Station is divided into thre
major fields; Agronomy, Horticulture, and Anim

complishments of the Station in the field of Agr
omy which indicate some of the work benig done.

1 As early as 1922 the Station reported that
its experimental data showed Carpet grass, D
grass, and lespedeza to be an outstanding combin.
for lowland pastures. The use of this combin
with slight variations has increased until it has_
come the accepted lowland pasture for the Coast:
Plain of Georgia.

Station in fertilizing pastures has come data w
prove definitely that higher returns in pounds
beef per acre may be obtained from the use of fe

years experiments have shown that fertilized p
tures yield approximately four times as much bee
per acre as pastures not fertilized.

Experiments on forestry practices are also being con-

ducted on this tract.

These accomplishments give some of the results
of work carried on at the Station. However, one of
the main contributions of the Station has been in

determining that~certain

crops and varieties were

not adapted to the Coastal Plain. Oftentimes a neg-
ative finding is. as valuable as a positive finding and
much money and time have been saved the farmers
by. the Station in proving the undesirability of such

crops.

Tn communicating wie the Station concerning
various results, the following list of fields of research
and the names of the men conducting the experi-

ments may be helpful. All

Coastal Plain Experiment Station at Tifton, Georgia,

: IGoagrestional Action Needed Protect!
Products Of American Agriculfure

The following telegram received from Con-

Hon. Tom Linder,
Commissioner of Agriculture, |
State Capitol, Atlanta, Ga. es SN
id appreciate your interest in my ap-
womtent as Chairman of the Spcial Com-
mittee to deal with future Agricultural
Programs and Policies.
Iam sure you will agree that the farm-
ers will face many urgent and critical prob-
Jems immediately following the termination
_ of the war, and it is the purpose of this Com-_
mittee to begin now a study and investiga-
tion of these problems and be in position
to recommend appropriate action by the
Congress and Administrative Authorities.
By way of illustration, | mention two com-
modities. During the war our peanut acre-
age has expanded from one and one-half
million to five million acres. We have been
endeavoring to build up consumption so as
to support this increased production after
the war, but, if cheap peanuts and cheap
vegetables from China and the Philippines
are permitted to enter this country, then our
peanut and our cottonseed producers will
be put in a hopeless position as to cotton.
We will face increased foreign product- ~
ion. A surplus in this country of around
twelve million bales and terrific competit-
ion from synthetic fibers. For example, the
production of rayon has more than doubled
in the last five years. We must face an at-
tempt to solve these problems. Cotton is
probably in the most critical situation of
- any commodity and I hope in November or
December to have a general conference of
_all groups interested in cotton and work out
sound plans for the future of cotton. | will
want your. active cooperation.
