From all the lights before us, we be-
lieye we should let our potatoes mature
as nearly as possible, and when we
ship, ship only good sized potatoes.
The markets may be over supplied,
but if so, it will be with small and infe-
rior potatoes. There will, in our opin-
ion, be good demand and ready sale
for all good, nice, large potatoes we
ship to market within a reasonable
time. Keep your small potatoes at
home and plant them for second crop.
There will be a demand for all the Sec
ond crop we can make for seed at good
prices. In growing the second crop
we have more time to plant, cultivate
and harvest than the first, and when
spring comes yon will have a demand
for all your surplus potatoes. The
South will want them, the North will

thought would give your many read
ers a few of the observations noted
while there.
The school is in high state of pro-
gress and is terminating much interest
in its favor not only in our own State,
but fairly attended from all the South
ern, Western, Middle and portions of
the Northern States. The diversity
and interesting manner Of conducting
the examinations was calculated to re-
fleet much credit upon the students,
instructors and all concerned. 1t being
mixed school, the fair sex appeared
in robes of spotless white, marched
gracefully to the front hand-in-hand,
and with equal tenacity, frmness and
capacity to that of the opposite sex.
They have the advantage of several
branches that are usually thought
worthless in female schools, but when
completed, renders their accomplish
ments second to none.
At least twenty-five faces were noted
during the week from Hickory Greek
and vast number of visitors from va,
rious sections thronged the halls daily.
The degree of graduation was confer.
red upon seven. The entire class for
the past term as appeared on the roll
was 351.
The citizens deserve much credit fol
throwing their doors open to visitors.
We enjoyed the hospitality of Gov.
A. S. Marks household while there,
with all the comforts and luxurIes cal
culated to make all pleasant. Words
cannot express the prevailing gratitude
of visitors to the ever favored town Of
educational progress.

Call for a Meeting of the Farmers
of Warren.

We are pleased to know that our
county was represented in the organiza-
ton of the Farmers Association for
Middle Tennessee at Nashville last
week, and that John Macon was ap-
pointed vice president for this county.
We suggest that Mr.. Macon at once
proceed to call meeting of all the
farmers, fruit growers and stock men
Of Warren to meet at the courthouse
at an early day and proceed to organ
ize county association to cooperate
with the parent association at Nash
vile. We tender the columns of the
STANDARD to vice president Macon TO
make any calls or'suggestions pertain
ing to the same he may desire, and
promise to favor and cooperate with
any and all movements which have for
their object the advancement of the
agricultural interests of the State. We
make the same offer to vice president
Wiley, of Cannon, vice president
Clark, of White, and to all other coan,
ties around us in which the STANDARD
circulates.
We suggest that all the county news.
papers join us in urging the Importance
of prompt action in the matter, and
aid their respective vice presidents ii
organizing associations in their counties
If our county papers would devote {
little more Of their space to the agri
cultural interests of the country they
would find it much easier to extend
their circulation. Remember if W.

to be that a few years hence the South

they mean to take the occasion by the

New York Star.
1t seems that English capitalists ap-
preciate the possibilities of the South a
good deal better than our Northern
fnanc;ers, for they are buying land in
the Southern States in great quantities.
Their purchases in Florida are literally
immense; but they have bought large
tracts in other Southern States as well,
and have their agents on the lookout.
They pick up plantations, which can be
bought for triAe of their value, and
seize upon large uncultivated proper.

clearing up. The English idea seems

A Stock, Vegetable and Fruit
Growers Association.

We again call the attention of the
farmers and stock growers of Warren
county to the Importance Of organizing
Stock, Vegetable and Fruit Growers
Association for the mutual benefit of
all who feel an interest in their own
prosperity and that of their county.
In our humble way we are doing all
we can to encourage aud promote the
Interests of the farmers, but without
the hearty cooperation of the farmers
themselves we cannot accomplish much.
Go to Maury, Davidson, Sumner and
other counties where they have organ
lied farmers association, and you find
them all working well and the farmers
connected with them prosperous. Why
may not every county in the State
have them? We claim to have one
of the best counties in the State, and
have, so far as natural advantages are
concerned, but in many important re-
spects we are long way behind many
of our sister counties. Our natural
advantages are of but little value I'M
less we avail ourselves Of them. We
are deficient in the quantity and quail
ty of our stock. What we have are
generally scrubby and very inferior,
partially for want Of better breeds, but
mainly for want Of more grass and clo-
yer to feed them. We must abandon
the idea of trying to make corn and
wheat for profit, and SOW more grass
and clover, and grow fine cattle, sheep
and mules for market. If the farmers
in these mountain counties would
adopt this plan of growing grass and
stock, and cultivate their fruit and
vegetable crops, they would soon
grow rich and independent, and farm
ing would not only he considered
honorable but very profitable in this
country. We should, by all means
avail ourselves Of every possible
source of knowlege by which to ad
vance the farming interests of thu
country. Already there is an awaken
ing all over the land, and many o.
our young farmers are coming to the
front. Let us encourage them in every
way possible, and benefit ourselves b.
a free interchange of thought and eX
perionce, ana this can be done in N
better way than by organizing associa
tons for mutual benefit. BY such OIL
CARNATIONS we may not only learl
how to produce better paying crops ant
improve our stock, but as an associa
ton we may obtain better facilities am
rates of freight from railroads to trans
port our surplus. There is wisdom an
strength in unity Of purpose.

When to Dig Potatoes.

This is a question we are called on
daily to answer, and would be glad if
we could give satisfactory answers.
We have not decided when to dig our
own, but think we will begin about
the 25th inst, if the ground is not too
wet and everything favorable, so as to
ship about the first of July. The po-
tato crop is a little backward every

TennesSee's Valuable Investment,

Col, j. B. Killebrew recently re-
turned from Tennessee's silver mines in
Mexico, in which the State invested
100000 Of her surplus funds while
Mr.. Polk was Treasurer and our poll
ticiaps we're disputing about the State
debt proper. If Mr.. Killebrew is not
mistaken in his estimate of the daily
output of the mines, and the State has
her interests properly and faithfully
represented, the investment ought to
pay annually $4,000 of interest on
the new 50-3 bonds.
