THE HICKORY PIEDMONT FAIR.

This Fair Association, so we'll known
all over the, State, on account of it's
success heretofore, will hold its fourth
annual fair this fall, beginning on the
18th of September, lasting four days:
The fair grounds have been enlarged
to 35 or 40 acres, and is about en-
closed. 1t will be we'll supplied with
water for man and beasts having three
wells, two springs and a model fish
pond. There will be two tracks-one
for racing and one for pleasure riding
In addition to the buildings already
on the grounds, the President assures
US that additional buildings will be
built soon, This fair will come off
just the week following the one that's
to be held in Newton, ten miles east.
So those wishing, can attend both
fairs with the same expense and time
almost. D. w. Rowe is; President
and J. F. Click is Secretary. Either
of them will take pleasure in giving
any information desired pertaining to
this fair It doubtless will be to the
interest of all stock men and manufac'
turers in, the State to patronize these

President Cleveland has made, the
National issues and they all point to

And then come the 1sve State issues of

SOAKING. FEED CORN.

It will be found upon trial that the
soaking of corn to be fed to working
stock, especially old horses or mules,
will be attended with good results
Indeed it is not unwise to soak corn
for all work stock after hot weather
has set in. At this time corn,
especially finty varieties, becomes
very hard, and is, therefore, not easy
of mastication. By soaking the corn
in water, even for the space of six
hours, it becomes softer and easy of
digestion. Or days supply can be
put into the soaking tub every night,
and handful of salt thrown into the
water with it does good. When horses
or mules are kept constantly at work
it is wise as we'll as kindly to consult
their comfort and health. Whole
corn, or corn imperfectly masticated,
swallowed into horses stomach, not
only does not digest readily and supply
the needed nourishment and strength,
but in very many cases produces colo,
nervousness and fretfulness on the
part of the animal. When the horse s
digestion is good he is sure to work
with greater comfort and with salts
faction to the plowman. The soaking
does not extract any Of the nutriment
of the corn. Try it and you will dis
cover a difference in favor OF the
soaking of corn for your plow animals.

HOW HE MADE MANURE.

Students of agriculture are familiar
with the experiments made by Jared
Eliot in l747. He made long, nal1
row yard into which his cattle were
turned at night. Once a month the
end fences were taken out and the
whole surface of the yard well plowed.
The end fences we're then replaced
and the cattle turned in on the plowed
ground. This was kept up through
the summer, and in the fall the bottom
of the yard was carted out and spread
upon. the fields. When any field
needed special manuring, this yard
was made as near to it as possible.
The system of folding sheep on plowed
ground and "cow-penning." as prac-
ticed in parts of the South, are out
growths of this old system. So is the
more modern system of spading poul-
try yards frequently and eating out
the surface soil for use in farm prac-
tice.-Rural NeO Yorker.
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1888-05-15

It is always necessary to set out or
transplant more or less plants every
spring. When there is full supply
of moisture in the soil and the weather
is favorable, transplanting can usually
be done with very little trouble or
risk of loss, but these conditions are
not always SO favorable, and more
care must be taken.
There are quite number of plans
for doing this work. One important
item is to see that the soil is filled IN
close around the roots. Carelessness
in this particular is the principal cause
of failures to secure start to grow.
One of the best plans I have ever
tried with small plants of all kinds is
to thoroughly prepare the soil, in
good condition, the soil ought to be
made fine and mellow.
"A garden trowel or round stick
about one and half inches in diam
eter and about one foot long, and a
cross-piece fastened on top and the
other end we'll sharpened, is very
convenient implement for making the
holes in which to set the plants.
Do not take up too many at once,
and especially if there is a hard wind
blowing, as it is not good plan to
allow the roots to become dry. Take
shallow pan, put in small quantity
of water, and then add fine rich soil
until the mixture is about the consist
ency of cream; dip the roots of the
plants in this, stirring around IT neces
sary, so as to get as much OF the mix
ture as possible to adhere to the roots
Then make the hole for the plant, In
sert, and see that the soil is pressed
close around the roots. l prefer te
set out the plants late in the evening
If care is taken in getting the soil tt
adhere to the roots and the soil is flllee
close around the roots, under ordlnar!
conditions. no other attention is neces
sary. If the weather is very hot ane
dry, it may be necessary to water TO
two days after transplanting, bu
earlier in the season this will not b
necessary. :,
| Another good plan is to take up tn
plants carefully, so as not to ln]ure tn
| roots, make the hole for the plant

The farmers know athese things and
they appreciate them. Then again,
when the Alliance had no existence in
this State, The PRoeREssIyE FARMER
began to advocate it: My recollection
is that in March of last year it began
to advocate the Alliance. 1t didn't
wait to see which was the strong and
popular side, but like bold and true
friend of the farmers, it came forward
manfully and took the Alliance flag
in it's hand. The farmers know this
and they are going to stand by it. 1

HE "sPEAKs OUT IN MEETING"

OAK RIDGE ALLIANCE, Nay 5, 'Ss.
Col. L.. L. sPokK:-Our meetings
are growing more and more interest
ing. We met to-day, and although it
was called meeting, nearly all the
members were present. After the
transaction of some Alliance business,
we discussed the value of ensilage,
and the best and most economical
methods for raising ensilage crops.
The discussion was very interesting
and all seemed to. agree on some i'm
portant truths, which are. essential to,
success in farming. That to be less
dependent and more independent, our
farmers must be more nearly self-sus-
tanning, and the inference from the
discussion was that we must decrease
our acreage in cultivated crops and
increase our manure heaps. That to
have good land and good crops we
must have more manure, and to have
more manure we must have more
stock, and to have more stock we
must have more grass. And one OF
the best and cheapest auxiliaries in
this system of farming is to make ensl-
lage and plenty Of it. \
1--WE are glad to see such an awakens
ling among our farmers, and especially
the interest manifested as to our future
interests. They see and feel that the
wheels of the whole machine is going
to stop unless they 60 to work and
take their own interests into their own
hands. And [ want to say just here
that
THE PROGRESSIVE FARMER
deserves the thanks and the endorse
ment of every farmer in the State for
the manly course it has pursued. l
have been a constant reader of our
paper ever since it's first issue in the
town of Winston. 1t began by plead
ing for organization and it has kept it
up all the way through. 1t organized
hundreds of farmers clubs, and then
it did another thing, which will carry
it's name down to future generations
It came out boldly and fearlessly and
told the farmers of the State about
that $4,000 that the government
donated to us to educate the farmer
bows of the State and made square
stand. up fight for it and got it, ano
today we are having the foundations
of our Agricultural College laid. Te
THE PROGRESSIVE FARMER, more thar
to all other agencies combined, are W.
indebted for that College and for tha
money. Everybody in the State
r knows that it made that fight all alone
that there was not another paper IL
the State that said one word for none,
or to help our paper in that fight
