oAgriculture One-Crop Conditions Unknown in East Tennessee DIVERSIFIED agriculture is the second most important industry or activity in East Tennessee. Crops are greatly diversified, ranging from cotton to wheat and corn, the two lines of farm products adapted to the north and south extremes of the country. Livestock, dairy cattle, hogs and sheep are raised extensively. Cattle and hogs from East Tennessee have won first prizes in international and world exhibits. Poultry production in this section has brought national fame. Many counties of East Tennessee produce from $2,000,000 to $4,000,000 worth of poultry and poultry products annually. Eggs, baby chicks, milk-fed broilers and all types of poultry and poultry products are produced here. Solid train loads of East Tennessee poultry and poultry products leave every week for Eastern markets. Production of white burley tobacco is coming to be one of the most profitable crops of this section. The annual production is now 25,000.000 pounds, with rapid increases being made each year. The soil and climate are especially adapted to this valuable crop which frequently nets the farmer $500 or more per acre. Farmers in this section have won a majority of prizes for quality and acreage production in national contests, and the industry is still young in this State. Apples, peaches, strawberries and other fruits are being grown in commercial quantities, with hundreds of additional acres being devoted to their culture each year. Tennessee shipped more strawberries than any other state in 1923, the latest figures available. Certain sections are making a specialty of Irish (white) potatoes. Other crops are being profitably added from time to time. Many, in fact most of these, being directly due to the wholesome influence exerted by the Agricultural College of the University of Tennessee. The climate of this section is ideal for livestock and general farming. The winters are short and mild, while the summers are free from excessive heat experienced in many sections. The average monthly temperature, covering a period of fifty years, is as follows : January 38 degrees; February 41; March 49; April 56; May 67; June 74; July 77 ; August 76; September 70; October 58; November 48; December 31. The average annual rainfall is 49 inches, which is well distributed throughout the year. There is an average of 208 growing days each year. This, together with the fact that a vast majority of the fields have running water in them, makes ideal conditions for dairying and beef cattle production, also for poultry raising and general farming.

Produced by the Knoxville Chamber of Commerce, this 22-page booklet promotes the area in and around Knoxville, Tennessee. Titled, “Just the High Spots of Knoxville and East Tennessee,” the book is a curious mix of promotion. While the brochure promotes the idea of a national park in the Great Smokies, it equally touts industrial progress with pages devoted to agriculture, transportation, education, industry, and hydro-electric development.
