Concentrated Farming.

Fhe ADVICE TO cultivate less and
more thoroughly, manure more and
improve the quality OF crops, has
been so often given in these col
umns, that we tear the reader will
begin to think we have no other
string to our bow. However, this
being the time when the farmer be-
gins, as it were, another years OPP
erat;ons for bread, we cannot re
frain from adyerting to these topics
again.
Every indication and condition
of the period points to the necessity
of concentrating the energies and
means of the average farmer on a
smaller area of land, and giving to
that the most thorough culture and
all the manure possible. The pro-
fit of farming9if 9 profit is to be
had-must come from crops Of o
larger yield and improved quality.
There Is but one obvious way to
secure this-that acre must not be
stinted in work or manure; both,
an abundance of each, are essential.
Most farmers labor enough to
bring them h4ndeome competencies,
if their labor was properly directed
and concentrated. They waste
their energies on too large surface.
Our thin and exhausted lands must
be treated so well, that large sur
face cannot be gone over as needful
to large returns Selected.
The farmers are disappointed in
the price of cotton this season.
The low price offered for this staple
hardly pays for its cultivation, yet
when we compare the prices of 9th
er products and of other articles
with the ante belJuag prices, we find
that cotton is no except on TO the
rule Wheat, corn, cotton, and
nearly all farm products are coming
down together Yet farmers feel
that the low price of cotton is a
greater hardship, for the reason
that, ever since the close of the war.
they have relied on this crop prin-
cipally for paying their debts. 1t
always, has a market, and brings
cash down prices. Many of the
debts under which they are now
laboring were contracted when
everything was at high price, and
when they have to sell cotton at
very low tgurs 20 pay debts incurr
ed in buying highpriced provisions
and goods, they feel more sensibly
the decline.

Ho! for Texas, but before we go let Hs
glance at our list of indispensiblss. We
must, of course, have the cash to defray
our expenses, a clean shirt, cCmb and
