Improving worn-out land to grow cotton profitably
North Carolina farmers seek a new era by forming cooperatives to grow gin and market cotton and seed locally. The article profiles W. Brawley of Mooreville and his seven year land improvement system, rotation, fertilizer, and machinery, showing how intensive management yields higher profits and self-sufficiency for the farm. It notes his 124 bales sold, 8884 bushels of grain, 6000 pounds of pork, milk, butter, and reliance on self-produced supplies. It highlights his efficient fertilizer mix, farm labor savings, and tenant system under his supervision, arguing that careful husbandry makes cotton farming financially viable even at low prices.
