GEESE IN HARNESS.

An Alabama Farmer has Solved Problem
In Raising Cotton.
A gentleman who has Just returned
from the central part OF Alabama tells the
following wonderful story, which gives
new departure for farmersin the South,
and which il it is found to be successful
will be as novel us it will be profitable
and labor saving. He says: when l
was in Alabama, between Porter's Gap
and Millerville, came to country
place where man was driving ten or
twelve geese from branch towards a
cotton patch.
"For heavens sake" said /, "what is
it you have on the necks OF those
&c se?"
"Those are gourds full Of water. l
drive the geese into that cotton patch
and keep them there all day wedding out
the cotton. There is no water in tue
cotton patch, and have to give them
water in this way to keep them there.
Those geese will weed out more cotton
in day than two people would. They
will eat the grass and weeds, but they
won't touch the cotton"
"But how do they get the water out
OF those gourds under their necEsT
"They drink out OF each others
gourd. Each gourd has an opening in
the side, SO that another goose can put
his bill into the gourd and drink. II
you will stayhere long enough you will
see it yourself"
l waited there half a day to see that
performance and finally l saw 1t. Tie
geese did Just as the man said they
would. When a goose got thirsty he
walked up to his neighbor and coolly
drank out Of the gourd on his neck.
When asked II he had yet made crop
with the help OF the geese, he replied
that he made small crop last year but
only had limited number OF geese, as
he was only experimenting. This year
he has over hundred geese in harness,
and they have succeeded in keeping his
crop cleaned out so far. He has hum
dred acres under cultivation, and says
he will make the best crop he has ever
made. When asked how he came to
think OF using the geese as farm hands
he replied that two years ago he had a
small patch OF cotton near his house.
In this patch the geese raised about his
yard were allowed to run. He noticed
that the cotton had little or no grass and
no weeds at all and began to watch the
geese. He found that they literally ate
every weed and every blade OF grass.
But they did not touch the cotton.
Finding how valuable they were for this
purpose he resolved to try them on a
larger scale, and is delighted with his
experiment. His neighbors have paid
close attention to the matter, and next
year they will each OF them start a large
number Of geese in harness in their cot
ton crops. 1.-THE farmers experiment is
as successful as he thinks it will be it is
only question OF few years until the
whole cotton crop Of Alabama will be
weeded out by the ordinary farm goose.
