Farm Work for August.

CoTToN-Sweep and hoe; make preparation for picking, and as soon as a hand can get 30 pounds day begin.
 Corn-Lay by late planted; pull fodder. There is no doubt but that corn is always injured by pulling the fodder, probably to the extent of the value of the fod- der. We ought not to get our grain and forage from the same crop. Perhaps less objectiona- ble plan than fodder pulling would be to cut the corn at the ground as soon as the blades below the ears are mostly yellow, and put into small shocks till thoroughly cured, taking off the ears when dried sufficiently, and stacking the fodder with stalks attached. Sweet potatoes-Cultivate till the vines cover the ridges, and pull weeds from among them all the time.
 Turnips-Ruta Bagas should be sown at once; others at intervals of every ten days, if ground is. moist. .S.~
 Small- Grain-Whenever the ground is not too dry, keep turn ing and subsoil blows running preparing ground. Rye and oats may be sown now Tn cotton and covered with harrow.
 Forage-Save pea vines, crab grass, millet, sorghum, corn fod- der, etc.
 California and Crimson Clover Sow now or early next month.
 
 Jobs-Of all kinds can be bet ter attended to now than at buster times.
 Labor-Labor can generally be obtained now, and should be em- ployed to clear up fence rows and woods pastures, branches, etc., to save hay and to get ahead with things generally.
 Pastures-Now is the time to cut bushes, briers, etc., in pastures, and to mow or pull up weeds.
 Frel-Whilc labor can be had, better get in winters supply of fuel, and while the wood is yet green Lave it cut up, as it will be much lighter chopping than when seasoned.
 Manure-Haul out and spread on land intended for small grain. Haul leaves and put in pens to lit ter stables and COW lots, and when saturated with liquid manure, pile under shelter to rot.
 Fertilizers Commercial )-Bet- ter order, if to be hauled some distance, so as to get it done in the fall when hauling is cheap.
 Wheat-If not already done, should be stunned. When thor oughly dry send at once to mill enough to make years supply of flour. Sun the flour, sack and store in dry, airy room.
 Fences-See that they are pig and mule proof.

Stock Raising Again.

Stock Raising Again.
 The importance of raising more stock and better stock should be impressed upon the people of Ar kansas. It is time to discard the scrub horse, COW, sheep and hog. Necessity has compelled farmers in other countries to dispose of their poor stock and obtain better animals of the various improved breeds, and it has paid them well. Let us hasten to follow their ex- ample. A full crop cannot be raised unless the land is thorough ly and deeply plowed; nor can the land be thus prepared with ponies, HORSES are needed; so it is evi- dent that we want large heavy horses, mules and oxen. Then we want a good breed of COWS, Ayreshires or Jerseys. How much better to get bucket full of milk from one COW than to be obliged to "strip" a half dozen for the same quantity.
 And when we come to talk about sheep raising we might talk week and not say half that ought to be said in it's favor. With such sheep as Southdowns, Cotswolds, Kentucky improved or Marines, there is no doubt about it's proiitableness. Wool and nut ton always will command the money. No meat is more suitable and more healthy for family use. It is about the only kind of fresh meat obtainable in small quanti- ties by farmers living at a distance from large towns. A pound of wool is worth, commonly, about four pounds of cotton, and it can be raised without the use of q hoe handle or cotton -scraper.
 Then what beautiful locations for the business right here in Pope, Johnson, Yell and Conway coun- ties. Sheep naturally thrive on hills ard mountains and will get fat where other stock would bare ly live. Instead of injuring or running the range as the hogs do by eating the grass-roots, the sheep will actually improve it by devouring many weeds and bush eS.
 It will perhaps be urged that sheep require too much attention, too much watching, but if it can be proven that they require as much care or half as much hard work as cotton raising we give it up.
 Horses and hogs, unlike rumi- hating animals, require a large amount of grain and it is doubtful whether it will be profitable to raise them for market, but we should certainly raise enough for our own use. We need heavy, stout, docile horses, and the best breeds of hogs obtainable-those that will fatten easily and mature early. Hogs may be partly raised on clover pastures, artichokes, peaches and apples, and then fattened on peas which require no harvesting, at the same time act ually improving the soil. Never keep more hogs than can be kept in a thriving condition. T.
