10 turn the bachelors out but
owing to the i'll health of Mrs.
Martin and not being able TO

competent cook they felt forced
under the circumstances to make
the change. Fortunately, how

yielder, and visa versa. Such farm
ers as may be led through the read
ing of this article to select their
seed corn any autumn, by proper
tional size, vigor, and healthfulness
of the stalk, storing their seed away
in a warm dry, well-ventilated place,
will secure a good quality of seed
corn for next years crop, and will
have their grain yield increased at
the expense of stalk production. The
writer fully believes that with the
future great scientific development
that will come in corn breeding dur.
ing the next 25 years, our average
yield and quality of corn will be
largely increased.
All wide-awake farmers can help
it on by each year planting a special
patch of at least one acre of corn on
their most fertile land, with seed
from like special patch of the pre-
ceding year. Critical selection of
not only the year, but the stalk also,
while it is growing in the field will,
as the succeeding years go by in
crease the grain yield in a geOmetri-
cal ratio. Try it.

HAVE A SPECIALITY.

I wish to urge upon my farmer
friends to make a speciality of some
thing. Get interested in some par
ticular crop or kind of stock or breed
of poultry. Get enthusiastic and
make a success of something. Many
in our neighborhOod make a speciality
of cabbage, and some have made lots
of money growing it. One man
cleared over 81, 900 from few acres
last fall. He at once built himself a
new house.
Our speciality is poultry, Buff
Plymouth Rocks, and I can see how
in many ways that it pays to make a
special of something. We are max
ing a reputation for our poultry that
is far-reaching, and it brings good
returns to the person who takes
pains and tries to grow or make
something a little better than any
one else can. Therefore, I repeat
Have speciality E. E. Lawrence,

CLODHOPPER's TALKS.
Some Plain HOmespun Suggestions.
Platt Co, Ill

some RAIN SSsL4OAS'
Correspondence of The Progressive Farmer
One of the things Clodhopper
wishes to urge upon his brother
farmers at the beginning of the New
Year is the value of keeping ac-
counts. AS said some weeks ago,
one of the cOstliest mistakes of North
Carolina farmers is the fear of pen
and ink-our habit of putting pen
and ink work upon some one else,
for which we always pay dearly.
Not only keep account of goods
bought and prices paid for them,
but keep accounts with your cattle,
your poultry, and your various crops.
/ notice with some surprise that
tests at the Massachusetts Expert
ment Station show better results in
egg-laying from ration made up
largely of corn than were obtained
from wheat ratiOns. The trials have
been continued through several
years with similar results. l had
the impression that corn was too
heating, and that wheat was better.
Perhaps the colder climate of Mas
sachusetts has something to do with
the case
Pecan trees ought to be more gen
orally grown. Many farmers be-
lieve they will not grow in this
latitude, but this is all a mistake.
There is a very fine tree within a
block of our State Capitol that is
loaded with nuts every year.
A senseless practice that ought to
be stopped is that of burning corn
stalks, leaves, dead grass, and other
quickly-rotting rubbish on our
farms. Most of our soils need humus
-decayed vegetable matter-wOrse
than they need guanos and the corn
stalks, vines, etc, make humus, be-
sides returning to the earth much
fertilizer.
know two farmers near Raleigh
who have recently engaged in bee
keeping with good prospects of max
ing money out of it. Bee culture
pays if you adopt modern methods
and study the business we'll. Give a
studious boy Roots A B G of Bee
Culture, and if he gets any enthusi-
asm on the subject get him some
Italian bees in LangstrOth hives, and
he will not only give you honey for
the table, but get clothes for him
self and learn to think and act for
himself, and will take deep interest
in farm life.
The scarcity of cattle in Central
North Carolina is remarkable. In
few counties are there enough milch
COWS to supply the demand. In
Chatham and Wake they are very
scarce.
Certain it is no branch of farming
offers finer opportunities than dairy
ing and stock raising. l notice from
| the Department of Agriculture re-
ports that in our entire State the
number of horses, mules, milk COWS,
and other cattle and sheep, is less
than in 1897 by 173, 500 head. Horses
and mules have slightly increased in
number, while cattle and sheep have
largely decreased. The value, how
ever, of the stock is greater now
than in 1897 by $3,793,889

FROM A GU1LFoRD TRUCKER.
He Discusses the Velvet Bean, Lettuce Grow.
ing, and Hay Raising.

ne discusses Lno Ne1VeG beau' LETTUCE OFOW"
ing, and Hay Raising.
Correspondence of The Progressive Farmer.
My trial with the velvet bean
pleased me>very much and think it
a good thing for stock feed and land
improving. It is true the bean did
not ripen for me under such treat
ment as gave them, and also think
if they are properly forced they may
be brought to maturity. Expect to
try them again. My first trial in
growing rice was failure, but when
I learned more about the habit of
rice, learned to grow it. The first
test on celery was a success and yet
there is much for me to learn in
growing and the management of
celery. It takes several trials to be-
come acquainted with the growth of
any plant.
One of my neighbors, Mr.. Phoenix,
sells his lettuce at ten cents per head
or dollar per dozen and says itdOes
not pay to grow it. This, of course,
is winter r-grown and large white
heads. It takes much care and at
tention. I did not know until of
late that lettuce could be grown to
such large white heads like cabbage.
But do think some of our good farm
ers can prepare a place and grow
such lettuce at a good profit at five
cents per head and make more money
than they can on ten cent cotton.
Most of your work and care would
be in fall and winter after all farm
work is done.
But what about a market? Let
tuce such as is described above will
bear shipping to a good market
Sow the seed in August or the early
days of September and then the
plants will be ready for re-setting in
your forcing place, so they will be
ready in January and February.
AS the subject of Bermuda grass
is claiming some attention, will give
some few suggestions to others for
thought. The time to kill it out
where it is in a broad area is fre-
quent p1owing in July and August,
when land is dry and heat of sun is
great. Bermuda grass is fond of
rich land and plenty of manure. My
plan is to kill all out as soon as ]
can. There are other grasses that ]
consider far superior in beauty and
value. The blue grass, herds, tim
othy, orchard or any natural grass
is far more preferable.
We have fine lands in North Caro-
lima to make all the hay that our
stock can consume. When some
men fail the cause must fail, they
are apt to shift the real cause from
their own shoulders. Clover, alfalfa
or lucerne, pea vines and the long
list of grasses-sOme of these will
grow on any land in this State. So
we may have hay to sell and keep if
we know how to care for them.
North Carolina will never come to
her full value until she takes the
lead in the grasses. When our lands
are covered in the rich grasses, then
we can live at home.
