rs WHEAT A PAYING CROP AS
GENERALLY GROWN IN
TENNESSEE 2

This question is important to the
farmer, not only in reference to wheat
but almost every other crop. Some
Northern and Northwestern farmers
think that crop of wheat of less than
20 to 25 bushels per acre does not pay.
If less than 20 bushels does not pay
the Western farmer, how is it with
Tennessne farmers, whose crops do not
average ten bushels per acre? Pro-
badly majority of our farmers plant,
harvest and market their crops from
year to year without making any def
mite estimate Of profits and losses.
They cannot tell what they make or
loose. This shows the Importance of
keeping farm accounts. Every farmer,
and especially every young farmer, who
desires to make his business a success,
should open an account with his farm
and carefully note the expenditures
and receipts of every kind of crop
grown each year, and the profits re-
ceived from each, separately. This Is
the only way he can farm intelligently,
or determine how much he makes or
looses. Does wheat pay, and if so,
how much? If it does not, and can.
not be made to pay, we had better
abandon itand let our Western brethren
furnish the world with bread and we
turn our attention to grass and stock
until we can restore our lands to such
fertility as will produce the cereals in
sufficient quantity to compete with the
rich plains of the West. Of course we
must make our own bread. The farm
er must produce his own supplies. He
must make bread and meat at home.
This he can do readily by adopting
the intensive system of farming. BY
making few acres rich every year,
and proper rotation OF crops, he can
keep them SO, and eventually produce
25 bushels of wheat per acre where he
now grows or 5 bushels. There i;
no question but what this can be done.
How many young farmers, readers o
the STANDARD, will resolve to adop
the plan of keeping farm accounts
and at the end of each year report fo
publication the result of his expert
ence? In this way he may greatly
improve his own farm and tell other
how they can do the same. Intensive
farming is the quickest and sHest wa!
to improve our lands and make farm
ing really profitable. When ever!
farmer can save his own grass seed
then he can put down his farm in gras
and pillow each year only so much a
he has manure to make thorough.
rich. This we think is the plan t.
adopt. Grow no crop that will no
pay expenses. Better let your land
lie idle and use for pasture, than t.
cultivate crops that do not pay ex
penses.

A Barrel of Potatoes.

Nashville World.
Considerable trouble has existed be-
tween the farmers of Shelby county
and potato dealers, as to what a stan
dard measure of potatoes should be,
and to settle the matter the planters OF
that county, few days since, assem-
bled in convention and adopted set Of
resolutions by which it is proposed the
matter should be settled. The follow.
ing are the resolutions referred to,
which will be found of interest to ouI
farming friends
"Whereas, we consider 165 pounds,
or II pecks, of clean and wellpacked
potatoes as a fair standard barrel meas
ure, or a barrel whose head in diameter
shall not exceed 169 inches, and whose
slaves shall not exceed Is inches in
length; therefore, be it
Resolved, that we will order thi:
barrel for packing and shipping oul
present crop, or should we desire tc
sell in bulk, or loose, that we demand
fhe above measure or weight.
And resolved further, that it is the
sense of this body that the acreage OF
the present crop is one,third less than
that of the previous crop.

About Roads.

To the Standard.
The man who first started and ad.
vocated apple orchards in Warren
county may yet have a monument
erected to his memory; and he who
can have the roads put in "apple pie"
order and have the song our, drivers
sing all winter changed from plunged
in q gulf" to GLOW firm a foundation, "
by having Macadamized roads con-
structed all. through the county will
deserve a golden record. The wish
and hope for turnpike roads prevail
with majority of the progressive
farmers and business men, but while
some favor county tax for the scheme
I do not think a majority would.
Flooding, wading, whipping an un'
usual good horse so as to accomplish
two miles an hour makes ones thoughts
revert to the smooth roads of Bedford,
Rutherford and Lincoln on which he
can drive ten miles an hour in the
night time. 1t would cost the people
some money to build pixies, but when
once built and in use people would moi
be deprived of them for twice theil
cost.
