have been In my employment for
four years
Now we will discuss the advan.
tages of diversified crops. In che
FIRST place diversified crops AFFORD
the advantage of rotation; and with
out rotating the crops it Is impOs-
sible to keep up the fertility of
lands, or keep them from washing
or outlying. Corn and wheat draw
more heavily from the land than
any crops We plant; or in other
words, they are the most exhausting
crops, unless it be sugar cane and
sorghum. Hence corn or wheat
should never be planted on any
field but one year, when it ought to
be followed tor two years by some
other crops, say oats and cotton.
Let oats follow corn, and cotton
follow wheat, and corn follow oats,
and then ten acres for truck farming
can he rotated after corn; but keep
your land under rotation all the
while, 30 as to keep it from running
down or washing. Cotton is not
exhausting to land as much as corn
or wheat, but the long clean culture
it requires subjects it to washing
from rains even through the winter
months, for there is neither grass
nor weeds left from the clean cul.
ture it receives to tie the land
together and prevent its washing.
A prudent farmer keeps an eye to
the preservation and building up
his lands, and to do SO he must
adopt diversified crops, and the 70.
tating system.
Again, no farm can be made self
sustaining and IL success without
I raising all the supplies needed upon
it. Your bread, your meat, your
milk and butter, your vegetables
and stock of all kinds must be the
product of your farm. If you do
this, fifty acres in cotton will give
you more money of your own than
one thousand acres in cotton, and
no supplies raised; and how much
more cheerful and prosperous farm
looks, when we see growing upon it
corn, wheat, oats, potatoes, turnips,
clover and grasses, a fine garden
and fruit orchard, and to see fine
horses, colts, calves, sheep, hogs,
and poultry of all kinds. That looks
like farming, and what farming was
intended to be; and when you see
such n farm, you will ascertain that
its owner is free and independent
man, lives in comfort; all around
him live oontentcd; his cattle are
all fat and sleek; thrift and pros.
perity are all around him.
Such is the only farmer that pros.
pers, and whyi because he is the
true farmer that understands his
business and tarrls according to the
rules Of farming-hc don't max @
farming speculation, but he makes
it a practical success, relying on his
farm for his support and income;
and all who will adopt and pursue
such course will make farming
prosperous. Farming must be diver.
sified-all cotton and no grain,
grass, stock, poultry, and garden
neglected, will break any farmer
that farms on such system.

The Hunters Ssrstasen-

MANI years ago, when the white
men who hzd seen the Rocky Mount
aims might still have been counted,
and only few of the prairie Indians
knew the use Of firearms, hunter
named Fitzpatrick had one day got
separated from his companions and
was pursuing bis game alone in the
Wilderness, when, as illIGck would
have 1t, he was seen by 4 WAY party Of
Indians. WHO Immediately prepared to
give chase There was NOT the small
est chance of escape for him, but the
young hunter made feint of running
away, In order, if possible, 10 gain
time He happened to know that
these Indians, who as ret were little
acquainted with the use of firearms,
had several times, when they had taken
white hunters prisoners, put the muz-
zle Of their rifles close to their breasts
and fired them. by way of experiment,
to see what became of it He, there
fore, thought it prudent to extract the
bullet from his gun, and continued his
fight The Indians followed and very
soon overlook him, and disarmed him,
and tied him to tree One of the
warriors. who, it appeared, under
stood how TO pull a trigger, seized the
ride placed himself few PAGES in
front Of the owner of IL, took aim at
his breast and fired But when the
Indians looked eagerly through the
smoke toward where Fifzpztrick
stood. they saw he was safe and sound
In his place: and he quietly took out
of his pocket the bullet he had
previously placed there, and tossed it
to his enemies, who were all amaze
ment. They declared that he had
stopped the bullet On its fight. that he
was an inyulnerabIe and wonderful
c0njurer, and, What was more, that
some great misfortune would most
likely befalI the tribe if they did not
set him free Immediately. They there
fore cut his bonds and made of as fast
as possible, leaving Fitzpatrick to 60
