Mcdonald for $780," said Brannon.
Mcdonald knew what the horse was

time. At these races Brown wss ridden
by George Richings, the man who
brought Tanner here as Golden Gate. l

Better Farm Management.

The so-called hard times has done
more to change the methods of southern
farm management than all the advice of
agricultural writers and journals, says a

and well being of the farmers family is
at last fully recognized, and is now being
almost universally practiced. There
will be very little western meat, meal.
corn or hay sold to southern farmers
after the year 1894. / think some evil
dence of this change is seen in the de-
creased size of the cotton crop for
the last two years. More land
has been devoted TO other crops.
and this necessarily reduces the acreage
in cotton. l think this years cot
ton acreage will be even less than
last, since the disposition is still more to-
ward n diversihcation of crops, to the
extent of producing more food crops 1t
is perhaps fortunate that cotton price
should be so low just at planting time, as
it will so discourage attempts to plant a
large acreage. The commission rner-
chants are so discouraged, they are very
cautious about advancing money TO grow
the new crop, and will make no advance
to anyone who requires corn, hay etc
This will cause large acreage TO be de-
voted to these crops. Now it is well
known that the south has suffered less
from the financial condition than other
sections of our nation, and it is also a
fact that farmers everywhere are better
off, so far as living is concerned. than
other classes. There is no starving among
these anywhere. Those in debt, of course.
are embarrassed by the scarcity of money
and the difficulty of obtaining it to
meet maturing obligations. but so far
creditors manifest no disposition TO

if those at present in possession, are un-
