To Make Good Mixers.

Treatment in raising mixers should
be somewhat different from that in
raising beef animal or an animal for
labor. Begin as soon as the calf is a
day old; see that 1t has sufficient to eat
and is kindly treated and attended to.
Never pamper or overfeed. but give it
good, generous food, to cause a regu-
lar, early and steady growth. Aeeus-
tom ii TO be handled, but not TO such
an extent as to acquire Objectionable
habits as COW. bat rather TO be fond
of the presence Of a keeper Kind
ness helps to create quiet DISPOSE
ton. so important in dairy COW, and
this education must begin when the
calf is young-any habits acquired
when young are apt to cling to the COW
when grown.
For mixer, the heller should come
in at two years old. She is then old
enough to become COW. Do not as
q rule, allow her to go farrow. but
milk her up to within a
few weeks of ealving, even IL you
do not obtain but little at a milking.
A cow thus trained will give more
milk and be more likely to hold out
long in milk. II her after care is
judicious and liberal as it should be
Such treatment tends to form the habit
of giving milk. and. as we know, habit
is sort of second nature. Couple the
heller with an older bull; one. two or
three years older than she is prefer
able 10 yearling, and better stock IS
likely to come from such. After the
heifer has come in. her feed should be
regular and liberal. Good clover hay
is the best of all. but We all may not
have this for stall feed; then make up
for what is lacking in some concen-
trated feed. such as oatmeal, shorts,
oil meal or the ike. but great care
and good judgment must be used not
TO oyer-feed or crowd. SIS the future
COW may be ruined. Undue forcing
shortens the useful life of the COW very
rapidly. Dixie Farmer.

natural conditions present too much
moisture, by insuring drainage. In
the case OF corn. sugar corn and forage
crops, the conditions. or alluvial land.
are especially favorable to the large
yield. because tho crops, as rule. re-
quIre maximum OF moisture and OF

or course, the method OF cultivation
Is important. and we are of opinion
that surface cultivation. as practiced in
the older States east OF Mississippi.
would give better results High beds
are probably necessary Ia Mississippi
bottoms, on account Of too Iuuch
moisture in early spring, and during
protracted wet spells. But there APP
pears no reason why sweeps and cul-
tiyators may not be used as elsewhere.
Deep blowing induces large develop
ment OF weed, and is opposed to fruit
fulness
We have no doubt that cotton is gem
orally too closely crowded on most
lands. but especially in the rich soils
OF the Mississippi valley. AS a gem
eral rule the rows should be as wide
apart as the average height OF stalks
when full grown; aud should be not
closer to each other along the row than
one-hah the width of the rows. CIR
tainly FIVE feet rows and ten to eight
cen inches apart in the drill in a very
unequal proportion and much too close
for your rich alluyials.
One OF the most important consider
ations on such soil is the selection OF
seed. We would suggest the use OF
seed of some prolific variety grown on
the uplands of Middle Tennessee; or
some other more northern locality.
Such seed will be apt to produce short
limbed. prolific and early maturing
plants
We think the open secret OF Mr..
TRUTHS success, is thorough prepara-
ton. high manuring. good distance,
the best seed, and through. shallow

Piles of brush or stubble afford

they can be better destroyed by burn
