TerrelI's Crop Prospect.

Suppose we switch off of politics
this week and talk a little while about
Terrell's crop prospect? ? Mr. Wood
lief Marshall, who lives several miles
northwest of town, and who, by the
way, is one of our best citizens, says
that the crop prospect, upon the
whole, is very fittering. The wheat
crop, he thinks, was never more
promising III the history of our coun
ty than at this time. He says Mr..
Bridges, his neighbor, has the finest
piece of wheat he ever saw grow.
There are six acres of it. The ground
was thoroughly prepared by breaking
the land twice before sowing the
grain. Twenty-Five bushels Of cotton
seed were used as fertilizer besides
200 lbs OF guano per acre. The
wheat was then sown in the drill.
We halt way suspect that Mr. Bridges
is trying the intensive system so
earnestly recommended by the Jour
nal lasr fall. There is no sort of
doubt, farmers, hut what that is the
way to farm. Thorough preparation
by deep plowing and exhaustive fer
tiliGing. 1t will pay, aud 40 dis
count on it. But about the oat crop
Mr.. Marshall says the prospect is n /
good. The oats, everywhere, seem
to have become diseased-they are
all fired and look badly, but this we
attribute to the cold, wet weather
and think with u few days warm sun
shine they will grow off and do, well,
even yet. Two weeks ago, the far
mers thought that they would have
their corn to plough up and plant
over, but, after all, the stand will be
very fair. 1t was gratifying to heal
Mr.. Marshall state that the acreage
in corn would be considerably in.
creased over that Of last year even
He says that everybody in his sec
tion has an abundance of corn of last
years raising, anI the present indi
cations are that the crop of SO vii
he greater than that of '82 AS for
the hog crop Mr.. MarshlI is fairl,
enthusiastic. He says he never saw
the people so thoroughly alive t,
the importance of raising meat in hi
life, and almost without exception
everybody has sufficiently larg
stock of hogs to supply them viii
an abundance of meat for anothe
year. Never before III the history c
our county, we apprehend, was ther
such a prospect OF plenty and ID
light before the people OF Terrell q
at this time. No man can raise CO.
ton at present prices aud pay out
and the sooner our people lc,nn thi
i;ssd act upon it the better it will b
for thS,s and the country too.

1t is just as impossible for men to
see alike in matters of politics az it
is in matters Of farming, merchandise
or anything else; and it is right
that it is 30, fer if it We're other wise,
then, the politics OF the country
would stagnate and soon become
impure As it is, the force of one
mans views often holds those of an
other in check and prevents radical
extreme either way.

Capt. Kolb, of Eufaula, has four
acres planted in collards. He says
four acres in collards will make
four thousand pounds of seed, and
that he sells the seed at SO cts. per
tb at wholesale. This, as will be
seen, is at the rate of $500 per
acre gross profits. Would it not
pay some of our cotton planters to
convert some of their broad acres in
to collard patches?

On last Thursday night stabbing
affray occurred near town between a
couple of darkies which may result

before Judge Lennard next Saturday
evening.
