tail work has magnified the impor-

There is no enjoyment in the work; no
ambition to get through with il; and

SOUTHERN TRUCK FARMING.
The Change that Has Come Over
the Vast Prairie section of
the Gulf Coast.

A few years ago the entire gulf
coast prairie section was considered
fit only for cattle ranges. and farming
was not thought of except to grow
gardens and a roasting ear patch on
land where cattle had been penned.
The soil was considered too poor for
farming to any greater extent. and
compared with alluvial bottoms,
black prairies and the sandy loans,
where red oak and hickory thrive,
these coast prairies may Yet be
classed is poor-poor for cotton and
corn, the great staples of the coun-
try. True. this poor land, by judi
eious fertilizing could be made more
productive than any natural SOIL but
10 fertilize large areas for growing
low-priced products was out of the
question; it wouldn't pay. and cult
waiting small ones for any purpose,
except garden vegeta bles for home
use, was beneath the dignity of the
old-time farmer. who measured him
self by the number of his cultivated
acres. The thousand-acre farmer was
Just ten times as important a per-
sonage as the hundred-acre farmer,
regardless of financial solyency. \
visit to the coast country now will
show how great change may be
made in few years. Truck farms
have sprung up around almost every
railroad station, and train load after
train load of valuable products are
moved out every shipping season. The
great level plains are scanned in every
direction with large canals. on which
low-draught steamers might easily
float. and the level landscape is alive
with labor-saying tools each doing the
work that formerly required a dozen
men a dozen hours per day 10 per-
form. In season these plains become
seas OF water. only obscured by the
waving rice rapidly maturing under
a ripening sun. In short. the land
that was too poor for the old-style
farming is now the most prosperous
agricultural section in all the south.

HERE AND THERE.

Deep blowing and thorough prep
aration by disking and rolling has
often increased the yield of both oats
and wheat by 100 per cent. Then
why not farm that way every year?
in Connecticut the farming land
is high-priced; nevertheless, three
fourths of it is devoted to hay and
pasture grasses. This is merely, but
truly, an indication of the value Of
grass in farm economy.
Don't keep too many fowls to-
gether," says almost every poultry
journal in almost every issue. The
advice is highly right. 1t is undoubt-
eddy best to keep just the right num-
Der together; but what is the right
number?
After oats are harvested, cotton,
corn, German millet, sweet potatoes
and second crop Irish potatoes may
be planted with fair assurance of sue
cess. Why should land be required TO
produce but one crop, when two may
be secured?
News comes from Rome, Ga, that
there will be at least 100000 new
peach trees planted in that state this
winter. Nursery trees have doubled
in price, owing To the enormous de-
mand, and nearly all the nurseries are
running short.
Never choose a dairy cow because
she is fat, sleek and beauty. In a

real dairy beauty.

raj free mail delivery is completely

Benefits of improved Machinery.

The logical result of using i'm

to enable the farmer TO grow and

him in addition TO have more time
