The only planters we have heard Of in the
parish who have up 70 this time, corn to sell
are Messrs J. NJ. Sims and T. ID. Weir Of
Hufpower. These gentlemen understand
that successful planting positively requires an
abundant supply of corn. In our limited ex'
perience we have ever remarked that those
planters who always make enough corn to do
them, are without exception successful and
prosperous. Planting upon any o:her princi>
pie is game Of chance.
Mr.. Wier has already enough corn in roast

not half his crop. Just such intelligent and
providen, farming will make our parish pros
