As announced in our last issue, the
committee to locate the site for the
Sunday.school Assembly selected Mont
Eagle, which we hope and believe will
prove good selection. Tennessee
should feel proud of the location, and
her citizens should give of their money
and influence to make the affair a sue
cess. That our readers may know
more about Mont Eagle and the propo.
sitiOns connected with the location, we
give some extracts from aletter written
by the chairman of the committee to
DR.. Dewitt at this place a few days
ago:

Dear Brother Dewitt: Your postal
to hand. Yes, Mont Eagle is the place
selected, and upon the whole, the best
place | think. This is the proposition:
Mont Eagle Company gives so acres of
land adjoining their hotel upon which
to locate the assembly and more if
needed, so that visitors can attend their
hotel. They give us full control of
the hotel, so that no immortality or ex-
tortion can be practiced. 1t is one of
the best hotels in the South-wlll &C.
comodate about 600 people comfortably
and well. Prof Moffat gives $4,000
in money. The railroad from Cowan
to Tracy City makes the rate of travel
two cents per mile and gives $4,000
cash and l 200 acres of land right on
the railroad which it is said can be
turned into $1,000 any time, or can
get lumber from it for all our framing
purposes in building if desired. Maj. j.
| w. Thomas makes the rate eftravel II
cents per mile and gives one-third Of
that to the Assembly, this last feature
to last five years. This is over his en-
tire system of roads. We think we
can make at least, upon an average
$4,000 per year out of this. The l..
and n. road has promised to do the
same, but they did not make.a written
statement to this effect. Mr., Reppard
of Savannah, Ga; gives $1,000. Sc
you see we start well.

will not be disappointed in their expe-
tations. Some who planted may have
failed, but all the second clop we have
seen looks well and will make potatoes.
The only mistake we made was in not
planting enough of them, what we
planted are doing well.
When the time comes to harvest
them, let every potato be carefully
gathered, including the small ones, and
put away for seed. There will be
demand for them all and at a good
price nextsprlng. They will be better,
if we'll kept, than the best Northern
seed for spring planting. For the last
few years the farmers of Sumner, Da-
wilson, and other counties of this State,
have made the growing of potatoes
very profitable, and we see no reason
why we cannot do the same We, in
dividually, have decided to try five
acres next spring, and will prepare and
manure our land as far as possible this
fall and winter, and when we plant in
the spring will use freely the home
stead fertilizer. 1t is said that by the
Use of the Homestead we can mature
them earlier and largely increase the
production. 1t is of the greatest i'm
portance to mature our potatoes early
so as to get them in market early. 1t
is SO with all vegetables and fruits.
The sooner we are in market the better
prices we will realize. They always
bring a fancy price when early enough
in market. If we can't be first, let us
be as nearly so as possible. Let us ex-
pertinent little as we 90 along and try
such crops as will be likely to pay us
best for our time and labor. We be-
lieve a majority of our small farmers
would find it more profitable to make
two or three acres of their land thor
oughly rich and plant in early vegeta-
bles than to pursue the ordinary way
of planting corn and wheat on their
small poor farms for profit. 1t might
be more profitable to some of our
larger farmers to plant vegetable
crops for market and grow less corn
and wheat. Unless our lands are rich
grain crops do not always pay the ex-
pense and labor required to make them.
Until our farms are restored, many of
them, we had better abandon the idea
of making grain for market and put
them down in grass and grow stock to
eat the grass, and cultivate only enough
grain for home use. The western
States have the advantage of us in
growing the breadstu1s. They can
make it cheaper than we can. The
large demand for vegetables, on account
of the growing population of the cities
and the large increase of manufactur,
ers, in all parts of the country, create
market that can hardly be supplied.
Let US in a great measure supply this
demand and rest and improve our lands
with grasses and when the West begins
to fail, then our farmers can make il
pay to grow grain. Let the West, fol
while at least, supply the bread and
meat and we the vegetables, until We
restore our lands and the prices o.
, breadstuffs advance.
