300 COTTON 
manufactured products it makes. So true is this 
it requires no one to champion the reasonableness 
of the proposition; rather it should be the effort of 
every farmer, whether he possesses a few acres or 
many, to try to grow not only cotton, not only 
roughage material like peas and corn and meal and 
hulls, but live stock as well, that the by-products of 
his many crops may combine with others to produce 
milk and meat and butter and cheese; and at the 
same time produce a large quantity of home-made 
manures to rejuvenate and to build-up cotton lands. 
This is the great thought in the true philosohpy 
of farming; it is the magic key that unlocks the 
door to successful effort; it is the introduction to the 
throne of agricultural prosperity, and the beginning 
of a better and fuller life on the farm.
