-HBr B SHALL THE PRESS. THE PEOPLE’S RIGHTS MAINTAIN; UNAWED BY INFLUENCE AND UNBRIBED BY GAIN.” VOLUMN XII MOCKSVMJE, NORTH CAROLQfAi WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 7,1910 NUMBER ?2 Our Wasting Fertility. w p Massey in Southern AgriculturiBt. IntheSouth and Eastw e have always associated in our minds the IVest with a luxnriently fertile soil and great crops. But of late years it is becoming evident that the IVest is falling off in production, while the South is gaining. The government statistics are sometimes interesting reading. They show that the corn yield in North Caro Jiia has advanced from an average of 12 bushels an acre to 18 bushels, while that ot Kansas fallen from over 20 to 22 bushels an acre. And now in the great spring wheat sec tion in the Dakotas ye read in the Orop Reporter that the average i9 13 bushels an acre, and thousands of acres were abandoned after sow ing. Maryland has gone up ahead u of Kansas in the average of her corn crop, since she makes an average 36 bushels an acre, and there are wheat growers in Maryland who have for over twenty years avera ged 40 bushels an acre. And now the Crop Reporters says that Mis sissippi has the greatest corn crop in her history, and that there i9 corn for sale in Mississippi. Perhaps the boll wevil is not such an unmitigated curse as' it was supposed, if it drives the cot ton farmers in the Lower Mississip pi Valley into rotative farming and moves the corn belt to the southern part of the great valley, where it naturally belongs, and where no, nntimely frost ever cuts i t short, as is often the case in what is com monly known as the “ Corn Belt.” One thing is very evident, and this is that care’ess farming and single cropping is avtuihdus' in 'tie ■ West and Northwest ah 'in the South. The growingof wheat as the sole crop in the Northwest- has led to poor yields, just as growing cotton as the sole crop has led to poor crops and impoverished land. In the older sections ofjhe country in the East farmers- have realized the importance of better methods, and the slow adoption ot them has already shown its influence on the general average of the crops, while ,the decreasing averages in the W estshowthatthe work of soil robbery is Btill going on there. There is still too mnch of it in the East and South, but there is a wave ot interest going over the whole cotton country in leaahing improv ed methods. Eifty years ago the writer of this was a young railroad civil engineer In The Mississippi Valley. At that time the prarie sod was being turn ed and the farmers IaUghed at the notion that their lands would ever seed manure. ’They got rid ot what was made as fast as possible by let ting it wash down the streams, of •ten building their stables conven ient to the streams so that the ma nure could be washed away. Now in all the states of the Mississippi Ealley they are passing laws regu lating the sale of the commercial Iertilizfr8j and they are finding it necessary to restore, the wasted fer- Bliiy. Some years ago I was in- vited to speak at a farmers’ insti tute in Southern Illinois. They signed me the topic on the pro gramme, “How to Restore Worn ut Land.” I vvas surprised at this. -coming from “Egypt.” But on reaching the place for the eeting I found that the same 1^es fba* Bave made worn’ in Tii-111 tlie ®ontB Bave made them 8 Illinois.

But with the wearing out of the humus the bac teria were Btarvedout and could grow no longer, and the soil became literally a dead soil. And there are millions of acres1 of this dead soil all over the conn-, try, and men are. trying to galvan ize it into a temporary, life with commercial fertilizers, speculating merely on the chances of a crop as to the character of the seasoil into such a condition that the changes of the seasons have less effect upon it. Hundreds and hundreds- of. let ters come to me from • men calling themselves farmers, the great bur- den-of whose letters is ‘.‘My land is poor. How much and what .kind of fertilizer shall I use to insure a good crop?” The main idea, espe cially in the South, seems to be that ali the old, dead skeleton of sand and clay needs is some plant food added in a concentrated form, and that for every crop plantedor sown there must be a special formula for a fertilizer to be used. y:?" There is no doubt that the in creased average of crops in the East has been to some extent due to.the. use of commercial fertilizers, and it is not the use of these that I would object to, but their injudicious use. the dependence solely on fertilizers to get a crop to sell off the land and to leave the land still poor. Our best formers, men who re- allyTarm, and are not mere plant ers and gamblers with fertilizers, have'long ago found that it is ne cessary to study the special' needs of their soil, and to thus avoid buy ing what they need not buy. They hay.efound-it to-be krue,-as I have been insisting for thirty-fiive years that any formes whose interest is in grain and stock, or in cotton and: stock, needs to buy an ounce ot ammonia-in a fertilizer, if he forms in a good rotation, grows plenty of legume crops and feeds them. They have found out that on most of our strong clay soils, especially the red uplands of the South,- resulting from the decomposition of feldspa- thic rocks, they need not buy any potash if they lime occasionally axd get plenty Of humus in their soil to bring the plentiful supply- of pot ash in these soils into use. . Then they^are reduced to a-need ofbut-one element that theys mfcst buy, phosphorus; and; they have found, that with the development of the humus in the soil through the growing of legumes and the feeding of theifi and making manu re they can get better results from the pulverized Tennessee phospate rock than from the dissolved rock or acid phospate and get them cheaper. This element of phospo rus, jvhich we get in the combina tion with lime in the phosphate rock, is the one thing chat is always and everywhere most deficient in all old cultivated soils. Every ani mal raised on a farm carries it away in his bones. Every bushel of grain; carries it off. and unlike nitrogen, we cannot get it from the air by any sort of plant culture. We can get all the nitrogen we need for farm crops through the growing and feeding of the legumes, such as cow-peas, soy beans, velvet beans, vetch, etc., and can at the. same time increase the humus con tent in our soils, but thephosporus we must buy in some way, -either, as Dr. Detrich says. by buyingand; feeding grain grown on othermen’s farms or by buying the phosphatic rock and applying it. Phosphate rock used for the increased-growth, of the legumes and the legumes.us- cd profitably in feeding form ani mals and making manure, and thus restoring the - wasted -humus, are the means through which our woiu lands are too be redeemed, and not through speculating on the chances of a crop with a dribbleof 2 8-2.or The Record is but fifty cents. share them, buVthey'will be bri ghter, more beautiful, better fur- pished, equipped with a hundred conveniences of which your mother has never known.

Are you making the most of your school, of the practical training, you get on - the form, of the books and papers you read? Have you ever thought a bout a college course—the short course in agriculture; at least—and about the fact that a farmer needs to prepare for his work just as does a lawyer or a doctor?

According to; the United States .census reports three people die in our country every minute, 4,000 every day, 1,500,000 every year and undertakers continue to order Caskets by the car-load. -Df these million and a half deaths 42 per cent or, 600,000 are preven table. Thus, the productive ener gy wasted annually, as estimated iby political economists, amounts to $1,000,000,000- more than enough tornn our national government. Hach North Carolinian pays more than $10 00 for that annual amount While the State pays less than one Cent per capita for preventation, * According to statistics hookworm disease is the most prevalent of these preventable diseases in our State. Not so many lives are lost directly Irom this disease as from s<pne others but the power of resis tance is lowered on account of it and the victim readily' foils prey to other infections. Hookworm dis- is -eontageous wherever, soil; pollution is allowed. Many of our country schools are breeding places for ,the disease. County school boards, local school committeemen and influental citizens ahould con sider this m atter more seriously. The'Board of Education of Rowan county has. taken the lead in this great movement by ordering the establishment of sanitary toilets at every public school in the county regardless of cost.

When The WomenVote.- One of the most interesting pieces of reading matter that has been handed out to the public for some time is an account of the manner in which some of the ladies . recently went about voting in a state where the fair sex are permitted to have a Say so in political affairs. A pa per states that some, of the female voters marked out namesAppearing on the printed tibkets and substi tuted names of favorites, which of course made it necessary to throw out theticket when the votes were counted. Others returned-within a short time after they; had cast their ballots and wanted to see their tickets, as they had forgotten the name of the man for whom they had voted. The reporter referred to doesn’t say so, but we’ll juBt bet those women had lots of questions to ask regarding the platforms 'of those whom they supported. Is he in favor of the hobble skirt? Has he solved the servant problem? Does be like big hatB? These and hundreds of similiar. questions per haps had to be answered. But after all, the ladies are coming into their own and in all - probabilities will make the opposite sex set up and take notice.—Ex. When you have a cold get a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.

In the early part of the nine teenth century it reached' about 30 yeaas. Since the discovery of germs the microscope have revolutionized sanitary science resulting in wonder ful progress within the past few de cades. The average duration of life has reached 44 year?.

' ^ War and Preventable Diseases. Statistics show that more lives are-lost, in the United States each year fro m preventable disease than have been destroyed by bullet in all our wars combined. In the Spanish American war the ratio, of mortality was 14 from disease to I from bullet, owing to a lack of sa nitary authority. Typhoid was the greatest plague of the whole camp. It is interesting to note that hookworms and typhoid germs at tack the same area o f the body. Forty-two per cent, of our own State militia were infected with hook worms this-past summer. Dr. StiIfcs and many southern physicians be lieve that our death rate, from- ty phoid can be reduced 50 - per cent, by eradicating hookworm disease. This can be done by using sanita ry toilets, in this way preventing soil pollution and spread of germs by flies. Saved From Awful Death.

SHALL THE PRESS, THE PEOPLE'S RIGHTS, MAINTAIN; UWAWEP BY INFLUENCE AND UNBRIBED BY GAIN.” People who live in the country, or in country towns, certainly have no room for envying their aiore seemingly prosperous city friends. It's an awfnl hard matter to tell just how your city neighbors stand financially. Because they iide in automobiles or drive fine homes and live in palatial houses, drink champagne and always dress to the top notch is no sign that they are rich. Sometimes such apjpearanceB cost very dearly and an effort to to p up with the fashionable cir cles in which they gallop often makes it very uncomfortable for these unfortunate rich poor people Society demands that these airs be put on. They must either keep up or fall back into^another ring, which is, of course, humiliating. Some folks like to laugh at and jnake fun of city people who are thus surrounded, but as for us, we are really sorry for ,them. No per ron who has any self respect likes to be compelled to take a down ward course, as the “ upper tens” in society consider that a person has done when he falls out of one of these little society ringlets into a lower one. We may think and tolk about what we would do un der certain circumstances, but, it matters not where we live, we must adjust ourselves to environments. And about the only satisfactory remedy for society rich poor folks is to hunt a home in a small town, or better still, in the rural districts. * — ** The ideal location is found in a town or community where “a man is a man, if he’s willing to toil”— himself properly and knows how to do things Btands an equal chance with the more wealthy class. True manhood cannot be valued in.dol lars and cento, and a people that puts a higher estimate upon mon ey-grabbing and societysailing than upon the qualifications that go to make up the men and woman upon whom depends the future success of state and union is not a -desir able people to live among. It can not be too often said that the wealth of a country is invested in her men and women, and the same thing applies to localities with equal force. If you live “ in the sticks,” as your city friends might choose to designate your place of abode, and have the proper advantages, such as daily mail and telephone service, good schools, etc., you may consider yourself blessed. Just be cause you have been reared be tween two corn rows gives' , reason for nobody to (toll you a pumpkin. A very large per cent of the; brawn and brain that keeps the towns and cities moving, and of the intelli gence that steers the.affairs of the nation, came from between corn rows.

WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 14,1910. Growth of Farmers Umoh in Nhrth Carolina. Carolina Union Farmer. Two weeks ago we promised to print things in this issue that would make our Tar Heel Union men glad they are living. We believe, we are keeping that promise. Our record for this year is one to be proud of—one to brag about; Within the year, we have more than doubled our membership, standing now at the very head of the list in number of paid-up members. Idorer over, by the end of the year, we will have almost doubled the number' of local and county orginizations in the State. Indeed, during this year, the union in NorthCaroliim has grown and spread like a tree planted by the river’s side—and like that tree, it is bringing forth its fruit in its season. Comparatively speaking only a small portion of the fruit has yet ritiened; but the tree is chocked full of buds and blossoms and half- grown fruit which, in due season, will mature a bountiful harvest, if only we will give it proper care and attention We cannot here write down all the- things the union has done, even "in this one year. But.we feel like refer ring briefly to a few of them. There are five men in the State Union who, a few weeks ago, heard the general manager of one of the largest fertilizer, .concerns in this country complain that the Farmers’ Union is standing between them and a fair price for their goods. He ar gued that people paid $24,00 per ton for 8-2-2 fertilizer when cotton was selling at 5 cents per pound; and now since cotton (and everything else) is selling for three times as much as it did teen, $30,00 per ton would not be too high for this same fertiliser^ In other words, he said that fefgKftor is the only standard ronmio.tefyrtmf. is selling for less now than it did a few years ago. Here is a confession then, from the manufacturer that the State Farmers’ Union is saving the farmers of North Carolinafrom $5,00 to $15,00 on every ton of ferti lizer bought. The oil mills also directly accuse the Uiiion of - the responsibility -Yor the tremendous advance in the price of cotton seed and the rate of ex change of seed for meal. This is very competent evidence because it not only comes from outside the un ion, but comes from those whonatu- rally would have no love for the cause. And then too our breathreh of the tobacco sections are getting together under the union banner, in the fight against the giafit tobacco trust, and before another; year passess he, too, will feel the edge of the union sword. Our educational campaign: has been carried forward with energy., The people are a aroused along this line as never before. Thishas brought about an indefinable spirit of prog ress that shows itself in a thousand ways. We have thisyear produced a million bnshels more eomihan last year, with a corresponding increase in other feed and food products. We have taken a long step toward “liv ing at home.” Our people have begun to see the wisdom of co-operating in a business way. Our State Business Agency has done an enormous business—and; this will be doubled befotenext year is half gone. Thereis nothing be yond our power if we stay by our plans. ,r A Tiue Piijlosoplieiv Statesville Landmark.

Someyears ago in Ohio, ina Re publican stronghold, an old Union in his: own town was elec ted he would. leave it, to which his familyagreed. The campaign be gan to .warm up and a day or two before: the election there were many claims for a Democratic Sweep. The old mdn went home, kissed his wife and babies and told them to;pack up and get ready to leave in case of Democratic success. The day of the. election it - was announ ced that his town wentoverwhelm- ingly Democratic. He ’phoned the sad: news and prepares to. move to some otherpartof the state. Then came the news that the state .was Democratic.: He Iem his wife. and children to finish packing and tqok the train in search of a place that was Republican. While he was gone it was announced that Cleve land was elected President of the United States. The^third day. be ing UDable to find < a Republican town, county or state, he wired home to his wife that the whole country had gone to. the devil; to unpack and stand it the best she could.—Ex.

A new fertilizer paper has been started in the South, which announ ces that one of. its purposes will be to ’Pducate” the farmer in regard to the great advantages of mixed fer tilizers, and the folly of home mix- ifig.: One of the means to this end cbrisists of a series of cartoons rep resenting the farmer in a most un complimentary way. The text ac companying these to an insult to the intelligence of the farmer. The plan is to have the local papeas reproduce these, and in. this the aid of the local fertilizer agent is expected. The editorial announcement concludes by seating that: “Once the good work to started and the editors of the ag ricultural papers are convinced of ti1® savings to the farmers from ub- ihg commercial fertilizers manufac tured in an up-to- date factory, the battle will be won.” / - '' / ! The battle is not likely to be won. at all on this basis. Many local dea lers are heartily in favor of meeting, the wishes of their customers for raw material. : Opposed to this to the attempt of themanufacturer to bind the local dealer not to sell raw mate rials, and if: this fails, the manufact urer will POt give the same credit accomodatibtto on raw material as on. mixed goods.;; The custom of manu- facturersin giving a local dealer ex- elusive territory on the firms’ brands" and then giving his next, door com petitor exclusive territory on brands of exactly the same composition but. sonld under the name of some “Bay window” company belonging to the same manufactures, and continuing teeprocess as long as the supply vpf defers in a given town holds out, to not one that is likely to make the lo cal dealer favor the manufacturers against tee best interests of .the dea lers’ customers. - The editors of the agricultural papers are too well informed to take up any'such scheme mid they, as well as their readers, know that wherever home mixing has been intelligently tried, the "Big savings” are all on the side of home mixing. It has been repeatedly shown that in fac tories equipped with the most elab orate machinery for mixing; it is by no means an unusual thing for goods to be mixed by exactly the same processs as the farmer would at home This is especially true for small lots of high grade goods made from the best class of raw materials. Many largefactories are returning the old process of wet mixing, and for this work there is a great advan tage in using mixing machinery, since the process involves the use of sulfuric acid and has the manufactu ring advantage of permitting the ut ilization of low grades of raw mate rials that a farmer would never think of buying, if offered to him in their unmixed condition; it also serves to disguise the filler. The manufacturers continue to press the sale of 19-2-2 in the South and 2-8-2 in the North, both of which permit the low grade material and filler. - V7 - The farmer demands foamulas better suited: to >hto crops and soils,: and containing less filler. Brands of higher grade are meeting with in creased sale, and farmers are learn ing that they can make their Own brands to suit themselves.

The population of North Carolina is 2,206,287. Davie county has a population of 13,394, which is a gain of only about 1,000 over ten years ago. Small favors thankfully re ceived, larger ones in proportion. It could have'been "worse. Some of the counties in the State lost part of thae which they had in 1900. The Farmers’ Union In Davie. The Farmer’s Union is growing in Davie county.’ The past year has been one of great growth to the Union, not only in this county, but also in the State and nation as well. One year ago Prof. J. D. Hodges was elected county organizer and lecturer,, and on account of sickness failed to do much work until last spring. At that time D. G. Tutterow was also appointed organizer by the county President. When they went to work there were only about eight locals in the county with a member ship of about one hundred members. To day there are nineteen strong locals with a membership of between 400 and 500 farmers, and among them are some of the best farmers in the county. Of course this is h small membership to what there is in some counties, but we think it is a pretty good showing for six months’ work, with the small beginning the organizers had to start with.
