pointment has been their lot four years
our OF five. anywhere in the past thirty
years. The few years here and there
when hopes We're fully realized appear
as so many oasis-spots just sufficient
to give verdant tinge to the bleak
ness of a long rural life of drudgery
and constantly recurring failure.
The gen leman of the thirty-third
degree realized that it was purely a
theory that a man could farm in the
country and live in town. Sometimes
it may require twenty years to demon
strate its absurdity.
A very large number of good, worthy
soil tillers have labored to the very last
under the delusion that nine months
was the extreme duration of a farm
year. We have known some who were
still more liberal in their views and
regarded seven IL not six months of
steady work all sufficient to make
success of farming. The black FARM
er" seems to have been willing always
to imbibe the opinions of any exemplar
of this doctrine. He will call the agri-
cultural year as low as the next one
He is in the highest degree susceptible
to instruction, especially such as har-
monies with certain instincts of his
genial and infantile nature.
The successful farmer of-well, any
where way down in Dixie"-there are
a good many of them, thanks to
kind Providence! What are they think
ing about in the way of dividing up the
crops this year! What do they think
about a farmers year? Whenever we
have chance~we seek the views of
individuals of this class.
We are sorry this class is not near
so large as it should be. But, thank
the Lord for what we have. So far as
our own state goes, she is greatly de-
pendent upon them. Our manufactures
are all well enough in their way-ex-
cellent; but it is our farmers that hold
the place of main prop in the states
splendid superstructure. We must
never lose sight of this truth-so long
as it is truth. 1t certainly will re-
main thus for a great many years.
To the farmers, who live upon their
farms; who apportion their crops ac-
cording to reason; who raise the food
crops expected of a farmer; who real
ize that the farmers year is exactly a
twelve months and day; who pays
his full taxes on a farm a little richer
now than it was last year; who can
write or talk to the farmers relative to
some good thing discovered through
their own intelligent experience and
vet not think the next thing in order
is to be a candidate for Governor, we
bow to these, one and all, and drain our
cup. Essace.

Notes on Corn.

The Georgia Experiment Station has
Just sent out bulletin, No 55. devoted
to corn culture. Some twenty varieties
were tested last year.
Paintings We're somewhat later than
usual, owing to continued rains. Sew
enteen varieties were planted March
2S. Harvesting occurred October %.
Few varieties OF the corn tested have
other than local names. Synonyms
unknown.
The variety known to the station as
Marlboro was the most productive
yielding at the rate of q bushels per
acre. Cookies Prolific" came second
with a yield of % bushels.
"Ivy's Improved" and "Shaw's Inn
proved" did not Justify their name
Their place on the list did not indicate
that they have been muchly improved
In productiveness. The yield of the
two were respectively II and IA bushels
per acre.
-Four varieties not appearing in the
general list were tested distinctly for
culture.
The Hickory King came first with a
yield of 80 bushels. Weekly's improved
second. with 27 bushels. Blount's pro-
life (our old standby for 25 years)
came third with p bushels and Golden
Dent fourth, with % bushels.
For 80 years this wrber has used
and recommended the Blount as a good
