LOSS OF MARKETS When the crusaders against cotton talk alibly hee viving away our markets for cotton they do not even men tion loss of the many markets of cottonseed by- produet 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 feed and carbohydrate feeds are the basis for all livestoe dairy and poultry production, 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 eee When we encourage the growing of cotton on land th: ig naturally adapted for cotton when we encourage the 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 them we are giving the greatest encouragment we a possibly give to the development of pastures, dairying, livestock and poultry. EXTREMES | ixtremes are always bad. Most of our irenhee ha eome from extreme practices.

The Statio System of Georgia. The Station has achieved wide ieeboniinn to the contributions of its research workers. That t Station has-met with favor on the part of the peop whom it serves may be seen from its growth. In 191 its founding year, there was one small dwelling 206 acres of land, of which only 16 were in cultiv tion. At the present time the Station has over 5,00 acres of land and 101 buildings.

All of these mean a hig net income for the farmersThe fact that at the p: ent time the farmers of America are able to prod the tremendous amounts of food stuffs required this nation and our Allies is due to the almost a in this country. The work of the Station is divided into thre major fields; Agronomy, Horticulture, and Anim Husbandry. Tn the field of Agronomy, work is ca ried on with field crops grown in the Coastal Pi ture work which is attracting. widespread atten at the present time. Below are given some of the a 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. 2. Out of the work done over the years by th 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 lizer on grasses commonly used in this area. Te years experiments have shown that fertilized p tures yield approximately four times as much bee per acre as pastures not fertilized. ao the Station, many years ago, rechre the potential possibility of using Bermuda grass a grazing crop rather than to consider it as a pest. a result of the Stations grass breeding program 4.

A rotation showing the benefits and com parative values of winter legumes has been carr on for 17 years by the Station. : / 8. Kudzu was planted at the Station in F ruary, 1921. Systematic experiments to deter the economical value as a farm crop were start im 1930. So 9. Tobacco research at the Statioa was i iated with the introduction of the enterprise inS Georgia. Through the assistance and mfluence of Station a $20,000,000 farm income has been dev oped from this source. Fertilizer mixers follow recommendations of the Station in mixing fertili Farmers follow the various practices recommend by the Station. Also, as a result of research at Station, control measures for blue mold on tobac beds have been worked out and are in general by tobacco growers. The first control measure g erally accepted was announced by the Stati 1937. During that year this disease threatened to V out the tobacco business in South Georgia. we 10.

TIn the field of Horticulture, the Station carries : research with truck crops and fruits. Here also of the accomplishments will indicate to a large ent the work being done. The Station has propagated blueberries for umber of years. ve et potatoes. This Station is looked upon as the outstand- authority on the seed-piece method of: planting | In this leading tomato plant area of the | the Station has established certain practices | ich add greatly to the success of this business. Ka ase control, crop rotations, improved harvesting acking methods, and shi ppi perature conditions are some of the problems ing under controlled which the Station has helped the plant grower. 4. It was through research work by the Station the truck crops were established on the delta| s of the Atlantic Coast. This work was done dur- he years 1927 to 1941 on Butler Island. The mercial crop of lettuce now grown on those soils result of this work. 5. Research at the Station has developed prac- rotations for the Control of nematodes in the ard and garden.

In Berrien County the Station has a 2700 acre tract of land on which experiments are being con- ducted with the feeding and grazing of range cattle. Experiments on forestry practices are also being con- ducted on this tract. a 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.

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. oe PACE, M. C. gressm.an Pace emphasizes need of immediate action to protect American Agriculture from As pointed out on var- ious occasions in the Market Bulletin, the import of cheap foreign vegetable oils constitutes a | threat against cottonseed, peanuts, HOF beans and other American crops. a Atlanta and on bus line, FARM HELP WANTED 18 miles, Atlanta,-off Roosevelt Highway. 4-R. house with elec., and. salary.
