Much has been said about "What's wromy with agriculture" Lno used herein largely answer the question as it relates to Mississippi County. Statistics can deal only with the and while some of our farmers are not affected by the conditions as set out herein, they are much in the big majority coming in that class called the "average."

What About Cotton? Mississippi county's average cotton yield is SHI pounds of lint. Figure this at lOc a pound and you hnvc 533.10. Add $9, wl.icli is about the average value of the seed, and you have a total PIT i.cre yield of 55.5H more than the average feed value per acre. Then figure the uncertainly of the price of cotton, tlie difference in production and gathering coat and see which pays best.

It's Not Too Late To Play Safe! V' Although most of the cotton has already been planted in Mississippi County, it's not too late to plant a few move acres of feed. Only about four more acres of feed per farm will give us what we need. Take a look at tlie cotton market report at the left; remember that's the New York market Blytheville's; remember Blytheville is about 130 points lower than New York and then figure if you can afford to not grow more feed with 8 cent cotton staring you square in the face. If you decide it cannot be done; put a few more acres in corn and soybeans and be sure you have all the feed you need this coming year. A few acres less in cotton may mean the difference between a little profit and a big loss this year.
