OUR COUNTY CLUB

Forsyth county Farmers: Club
will meet in Winston on the 4th
Saturday (the 23) of this month. 1t
is hoped that a full delegation from
each subordinate club in the county
will be present and that each one
will come prepared to present some
thing for the consideration and ben
eft Of the Club. 1t would be a good
idea for each Secretary to report to
the County club the questions that
have been discussed in their respec-
tive clubs and what practical steps
have been taken, if any, to promote
and encourage the interests Of their
members. Let each delegate think
of these things and the meeting will
thus be made both instructive and
profitable.

EXPERIMENTS IN CORN Gull.
TURE.

Some time ago we noticed in these
columns some experiments, with the
remarkable results, in wheat culture
in the States Of Delaware and Cali
fornia. On another page in this issue
we publish the results of some expe-
riments, in corn culture, by D. c.
Anderson, of Monroe, Union county,
in this State, which give some inter
esting figures to the farmer Of an
Investigating turn Of mind. One
hundred and forty-five bushels Of
shelled corn to the acre reads like
something incredible if it were not
established by cold facts and figures,
by a responsible man who did the
work himself and kept an accurate
record of his operations. With fair
seasons and no mishaps to encounter
the yield would have been much
larger. He believes he a reach
200 or $50 bushels to the acre, and
go even higher, and proposes to
continue his experiments with a
commendable determination to see
what can be achieved. We commend
his example to other farmers
throughout the State, every one OF
whom ought to have a. portion OF
his land set apart for experimental
purposes, as Mr.. Anderson has. "fie
holds, truly, that what can be done
on n acre, can be done, with
proper system, on a hundred or a
thousand acres. He is doing a gOod
work, for he is demonstrating, by,
actual experiment, the possibilities OF
production, where, according to the
routine methods of the day, the
limit was supposed to be reached:
Mr.. Anderson, with his record OF
the experiments made, sent us
samples of the grain and cob OF the
corn raised. The grain is very long
and full, while the cobs, as he eN-
PRESSES it, n mere pipe-stems, com

sent not being thicker than the m,o-
die finger of a mans hand, while the

TO KEEP WEEVILS OUT OF
CORN.

We know that it was a practice
among many of the farmers in our
boyhood days to husk their corn
and let it lie in the heap until it was
raincd upon and then house it before
it dried. We have known others to
house it and take all the roof from
the crib until the corn had been
thoroughly wet by rain. They said
that it prevented damage by weevil.
Have any Of our readers any exper-
fence in this direction? If SO, what
is it? r.
