For the past week the weather has
been fine and the farmers have been
busy sowing oats, gardening, planting
Irish potatoes, etc. Wheat is not look
ing very well it appears to be too
thin.
Mr.. s. L. Brown, one of our most
successful young farmers, is sowing sew
eral acres of his land to.clover. If our
farmers would SOW more clover and
plant less corn they would not only
greatly improve their land but in our
opinion realize larger profit thereby.
Mr.. Thos. Lewis had a child bitten

He took it to Mr. Green Fletcher's, in

To the Standard
1t has been some time since | have
had time to address your many readers.
| have been and am well pleased with
the course of the STANDARD, and am
glad to see you, Mr.. Editor, taking so
much interest for the good of the far
mars of this and adjoining counties, es-
pecially so when farming is beginning
to pay such handsome profits on invest
ments. Everything that is necessary
for farmers in our country to raise an
abundance of everything that we need
to make us easy and happy as people
is to go to work to improve their lands.
The demand for all kinds of produce
and stock is sufficient to induce every
farmer to produce all he can, with the
assurance that he will be well remu,
nerated for all his labor.
When mule colts can be readily sold
at weaving time for from $50 to SIS
cash l think it will well pay to raise
them We all know that good age'l
mules bring from S125 to S175 cash,
and are always in demand. So it is
with hogs, sheep, cattle, fowls, eggs,
and in fact, everything that is so well
adapted to our soil and climate. Ii
pays any one to give any of these pur
suits his attention. I would be glad
to see every land holder and tenant
give these things their attention. II
they do this, we will in the near future
be a happy and prosperous people.

Will it Pay to Grow Sorghum!

There seems to be an increasing de-
mand for sorghum, rot only for syrup,
but also for making sugar. Recent
experiments have demonstrated the
fact that sorghum will make the very
hest Of sugarat the rate of 5pounds per
gallon of the syrup. The syrup left as
a residue, after refining, is said to be
worth 40 cents per gallon.
1t is claimed that Profs. Weber Il
Scovll of Champaign, ILL.,, are SUCCESS
fully engaged in this business, and are
manufacturing on large scale, beau
tiful sugar perfectly free from any cane
taste or smell, on which they realize
She in car load lots. We have seen
and tasted Il sample Of the sugar said
to be manufactured from the sorghum
by the above named gentlemen. 1t is
certainly very nice sugar and tastes
well. Profs. Weber u Seville claim
that under their process OF manufacture,
which is not kept secret, each acre Of
cane grown on medium good land will
yield profit of $75. We were very
busy at the time Mr., NJ. Day of Buffa.
10 N. Y, was here, and did not learn
the details of the process by which the
sugar is made and refined. We have
no doubt the growing of sorghum,
when properly managed, will become
profitable and at no distant day will
be extensively cultivated in thi;
country. The demand for the syrup is
constantly increasing, and will probably
to a greater or less extent supply the
place of meat. If people would use
more sorghum and other vegetable diet
and less meat We believe they would
be healthier.

Things are on boom at Viola this

Miss Alice Brewer has returned from

1t seems the young ladies of Viola
are afraid to stay at home. The young
gentlemen are so anxious to marry the
young ladies have to go to McMinnville
for a rest. So it seems to the writer.

Drill Your Wheat.

We notice this spring marked diff
ference in fall s6wn wheat put in with
and without the drill. Those who
used the drill to put in their wheat
and did the work early have fine
show, while most of the wheat sown
broadcast, especially if sown late, looks
badly and some OF it hardly shows at
all. We believe it will pay our, far
mers to pulverize and prepare their
lands well for any crop, especially the
fall sown crops. Wheat put in with
the drill stands the freezes much better
than when sown broadcast.
We have just read an article from
the pen Of a farmer of experience who
says that the cause of so many failures
in the wheat crop is for want of pull
verizing and preparing the land we'll
We believe it is 50.

FARM AND OTHER NOTES.

AS rule, the earlier clover seed is
sown the better.
One Paducah Nimrod has killed 8, 100
rabbits this winter.
The price Of ore and timber lands in
Dickson county, Tenn, has lately adj
vanced.
The cabbage shipments this winter
from Wythe county, Va, will yield
the county $4,000.
Wheat makes better food for grow
ing working animals than corn; the
corn is more fattening.
A practical dairyman says that but
ter packed directly from the churn
will keep but short time.
An acre of clover on rich land will
feed forty-fve COWS fifteen days if cut
and fed as soiling crop.
The oil from sunfower seeds has
great healing qualities; the seeds make
food of the first order for poultry.
An orchard in full bearing should
have full occupation; it does not pay to
cultivate with this another crop.
Buckwheat in moderate quantities is
said to be good for hens; it tends to-
wards fattening and egg production.
The east is beginning to feel the ef-
fects of the rivalry of southern cotton
mills.
France is officially credited with 40
100000 hens, and the production OF
eggs is estimated at S4S, 100000. The
total value of eggs, hens, capons, ducks,
geese, turkeys and young chickens
amount to the astonishing sum of $780,
100000 per annum.
The State of Maine has forty-nine
cheese factories, with an average of 107
cows to each factory. Last year the
total product of all the factories was
$50, SS4 pounds of cheese, for which
the average price received was twelve
and One-half cents per pound.
