Monroe County Matters.

On Monday of our County Court, &C
cording to notice in the SweetWater Enter
prise, our citizens assembled in the court
house at IL o'clock, to organize the Monroe
County Agricultural Society. Col. w. F:
Johnson was called to preside. He stated
in clear and fercible manner the benefits
arising from the operations of organiza-
tons, both in societies and farmers clubs,
as well as the improvements in stock, pro-
ducts, and fruits, as we'll as the effects
upon the young men and women, encour
aging a spirit of emulation, and the conse-
quent necessity for further knowledge
from the reading of the farmers column
in the county and other papers.
Col. johnson was reared in Monroe
county, New York, and his father was one
of the principal founders of the city of
Rochester, n. Y; city famed throughout
the world as the most extensive "Flour
City, as well famed for the extent of its
nurseries and the energy and thrift of its
people, and consequently he was compe-
tent to talk of agriculture, horticulture,
and all the present means to extend the
benefits of modern science as adapted to
the production of two ears of corn upon
one saltk instead of one. "What we
know about farming was given i'll con-
else and practical allusion to results as
stated by the United States Agricultural
Reports, and the result of the careful charge
of the fine lands of the Tellico Manufac-
turing Company for some twcnty-eight
years.
He brought to the notice of the citizens
the immigration movement, as means to
supply the exodus of our people; the
peace and quiet which pervades the entire
valley of East Tennessee, as well as the
efforts of the Tennessee immigration, La
Dor and Real Estate Association of Nash
vile, (of which he is the agent in Monroe
county, as well as a just tribute to the
climate and soil (if more fully appreciated)
as he demonstrated the fact to be so, but
our people were slow to believe it, as to a
common observer the tree is known by its
fruits.
Col. II. B. Yearwood was elected Presi-
dent of Monroe County Agricultural So
ciety; A. t. Hicks, Secretary, and Col M.
F. Johnson, Corresponding Secretary.

How to Have tomatoes in november.

EDITORS COUNTRY GENTLEMAN:-Vis-
iting friend in Missouri, last December,
1 saw hanging in the fruit-house large
number of vines. Upon inquiry she in
formed they were tomato vines. She said
she had nice ripe tomatoes only few days
before. Just before frost she pulls up the
vines having the largest number of green
tomatoes on them, and hangs them in a
room or clubhouse where they will not
freeze. The green tomatoes continue to
ripen for several weeks. AS this was new
to me, so it may be to many of your read
ers. 1 propose to try it this fall.

Forcing Stock.

Much is said just now about forcing
farm stock. The term is misapplied. If
we overfeed we hurt the stomach. This is
but another term for "forcingn foodin the
stomach and it is not what is wanted.
We are to feed what the stomach can read
lily digest more is hurt, and is an at
tempt at forcing nature it will not sue
coed. "Crowding," forcing" "overfeed-
ing,n these are all terms that are to be
avoided in the feeding of stock-feed what
the animal will eat with comfort and rel
ish. The relish always points to diges-
ton, and should always bekept up, so that
at the regular times of feeding there is an
appetite, a wish for food. Let this food be
nutritious and abundant, but not so as to
