A Successful Farmer.

Mr.. J. B. Wilson of Yazoo City Miss.
worked 300 acres of land with 8 mules
this year. He mace 1890 worth o,
cotton on said land. The total cost OF
crop mot including land rent as the
land was his own was $500. Total
profit 5000. Which is nearly $500 ia
the mule and oversee per acre. Mr..
Wilson had to contend with some ad-
verse circumstances, such as an ex
tremely rainy season, and the army
worm in September.
The success of Mr.. Wilson is a COM
plete answer to, and refutation Of
Senator Georges speech at Winona.
Senator George virtually commended
that Southern farmer could not be
prosperous while this country is on a
gold standard. or SO long as the free
and unlimited coinage of silver at the
l6-to-1 ratio did not prevail.
A vast majority of the farmers OF the
State can be az successful as Mr. viii.
son, II they practice his industry and
energy. OF course, Mr.. Wilson gives
personal supervision to his labor, and
to the management Of this farm. ffhe
mao devoted his time to clamoring for
free SILVER. and neglected his farm
work las the free silver farmers have
done) ne would not have such a record |
for prosperity aPd progress.

To Cure Pork.

Let your meat lay over for forty
eight hours, SO as to get rid fully oil
animal heat. Then mix salt petsr an
molasses at the rate of one ounce oi
the former to quart of the latter for
each hundred pounds of joint. Rub .
large table spoonful of this mixture
ever each joint, then place the joints
in a barrel small end down and sprin-
kle little salt over the cut part and
lot it stand for twenty-four hours
longer Then make brine of salt and
cold water that will float an egg.
Pour this over the meat so as to cover
It perfectly press it down with weights
and keep it under water for four
weeks, then sprinkle about thimble-
full of borax over each joint and harg
it up. Never smoke meat, it does no
good.
By this process the very best bacon
IS made, 1t is less expensive and less
trouble than the old way, and no meat
need ever be lost. / have used this |

The Vanderbilt Arboretum.

All those Americans who are inter.
ested in the material welfare of their
country will watch with interest what
Mr. George w, Vanderbilt is doing on
his North Carolina estate. Mr.. Van.
deroilt' as is well known, is making
on his estate sort of model forest,
where scientific forestry is to be prac-
ficed, and experiments made in accli-
mating valuable foreign trees and in
the most profitable management OF
the native species; but every one does
not know that his plan includes horti.
culture and agriculture as well as for
sstry, and that he wishes and hopes to
make his experience valuable TO Amer

lean farmers and land owners every
where. With this view, he proposes
to build on bis property little village
including not only hotel. but houses
and stores, where people interested in
agriculture, who come properly intro
dsced, may rent rooms or houses for
themselves and their families, for such
time as they may desire to study the
work going on upon tn. estate. There
can oe no doubt that there will be plen
ty of applicants. for nowhere else in
this country can such opportunities for
advanced study of the sort be found.
Fortunately for his countrynen, Mr..
Vanderbilt is not only able. but will
ing. to expend large sums of money in
experiments which may return, for the
nothing but advances in sci
knowledge; and it is just these
experiments which are perhaps, in the
md, most valuable to the country

MR. EDIToR:--It has bcen my goot
: fortune and pleasure to visit the Pecal
Orchard Of Mr.. T. J. Williams in War
rem county, sixteen miles below vicks
burg on the Mississippi river. He ha,
sixty-fve bearing trees, some Of which
produce as much as six barrels to the
tree, while others do not produce as
much as bushel each. Mr.. Williams
accounts for it by the fact that the
1 trees having the greatest distance
apart bear the heaviest crops. He has
four trees which will produce six bar.
rels each in good year. He sells his
Centennial variety at IS cents per ID.
and his Egg Shells at 20 cts. per pound
Centennials weigh 1876 pounds to the
barrel and Egg Shells 145 pounds to
the barrel. His Centennials net him
s33,75 per barrel and Egg Shells $50. As
saw the orchard and studied it
closely. The four trees which bear SO
heavily are over 100 feet apart, while
the others will not average over so feet
apart, showing conclusively Ethat q pc
can orchard must have good distance
between the trees.
Mr.. williams Is live, progressive
man. In 1879, he worked on the place
on which he now lives as q laborer;
now he owns the whole place except
one iuterest-he owns six shares out
Of seven. He told me that he had in
bank in 1890 822,50o to his credit The
house in which he lives cost John Hen
lerson $4,000 in gold in 1854. It is

Facts About Cotton.
Money Brought Into the
South in 70 Years.
From Harpers Weekly:

From Harpers Weekly:
a study Of the crop figures will SHOW
that seven years successfully increas
ing crops from 1856 to 1912 were nm
precedented in the history Of trade. /,
is doubtful if any leading crop raised
can show such an unbroken increase
for seven years. Jumping from $500.
600 bales in 1866, there was practi-
cally no hauling until 1912. when
the yield was 9,O35, 900 bales, gain Of
$780, bales, or nearly go per cent
advance in seven years.
In nineteen years cotton has brought
into the South over $4,000, 900, 000--a
sum 50 vast that the profits out OF it
ought to have been enough to greatly
enrich that section. Unfortunately,
however, the system necessitated by
the conditions prevailing in mediate,y
after the war, of raising cotton only |
and buying provisions and grain in the
West. left at home but little, if any,
surplus money out of tine cotton crop.
The West and North drained that Sec
ton of several hundred million dollars
every year, because it depended upon
them for all of its manufactured goods,
as well as for the bulk of it's food stuffs.
Hence. Of the enormous amour re-
ceived from cotton, very little remained
in the South. The increase in the d.
versifcation Of farm products, the
raising Of home supplies, the develop
t,f trucking and the building of
factories is all uniting to keep at home
the money which formerly went North :,
and West. Whether the cotton raiser
be getting the full benefit of
this or not the South at large is neces- :
sarily doing SO. The increase in the :.
given to grain cultivation is :
