PAsoUOTANK Farm NOTES.

Correspondence OF The Progressive Farmer.
The first half of February was
very cold, and since the middle OF
the month il has been very rainy.
Therefore very little plOwing has
been done.
There is one thing very certain
truck in this county will be two OF
three weeks later than usual, and i
am afraid that means that we shall
ship along with Norfolk. II so,
fear the results. Some peas were
planted at the usual planting time
and some have not been planted yet
In my opinion those that are out of
the ground are In the best condition.
A few potatoes have been planted,
but the bulk of the crop is out of the
ground.
There are very few oats sown in
this county, except for feeding pur-
poses. Those sown last fall are look
ing very bad.
It is anticipated there will be de
crease in the cotton acreage in this
county this year. I wonder how
long it will be before our farmers
will learn that a seven million bale
crop will bring as much money gen
orally, as an eleven million bale crop.
/ regret to say that the majority of
the farmers here are poor, and the
mode of farming, I believe, is re
sponsible in a great measure for 1t.
We know q man who has planted
cotton on the same field for four suc
cessive years. He put his manure on
this field, but the fourth year found
it as poor as it was the first. The
reason for this Is very plain to any
progressive farmer. Ou the other
hand we know of anoet farmer
who bought farm FIVE years ago
and he has increased the value of it
half. He did this by simple rota-
ton of crops; he told me that he
never followed cotton with cotton.
He plants right much truok and
plants and sows the cow pea, the
greatest friend that poor land has.
Twill say that too few of our farm
ers read farm papers. In canvass
of part of our county last fall as
book agent, I was surprised to find
so few farmers read ing farm papers.
My father has been q subscriber for
THE PROGRESSIVE FARMER for many
years, and l have enjoyed reading it
very much. While the paper has
always been very good, the improve
ment under the present management
can be clearly seen.

Wheat Growing and Wheat ThrsshinR
Which Serves ss an Illustration Of tn
General Improvement Made.
Correspondence OF The Progressive Farmer.
Seeing your request for letters re-
garding farm conditions in the sew
eral counties, will write this bit OF
history and progress of 80 years in
Burke County, N. c., which has 90
curred within my own knowledge
and experience. It may be of inter
est to some of the readers of your
valuable paper.
In tho year 1871, at which time the
writer was Is years old, my father,
Rev. P. A. Whitener, bought one
fourth interest in a threshing ma.
chine, known as the MOstelleT
thresher, one of the old fashioned
kind called the ground hog machines
after the mounted thresher and sepa-
rators came into use. We started
threshing in Upper Fork township,
ten miles southeast of Morganton, on
Upper South Fork river, in said
county, I going along as a kind of
scotch for many purposes, but being
full of energy, soon filed the place
of hand, setting the machine and
threshing. To ascertain if all things
were in order was the first thing to
do. First, we set the horse power,
which not being mounted on wheels,
was staked fast TO the ground and
contained long stem TO outside of
circle Of horse, where there was a
ditch out TO make room for a 30.inch
band wheel ON said stem. Then
came q scng rope to connect power
and thresher together, as right angle
to the machine which was enclosed
ina cloth canvas supported by stakes
driven in the ground. On the out
side of canvas in same direction with
line of rope was the fan mill, where
I worked furnishing power for the
fan or measuring grain, which was
my delight.
Threshing over several sections of
Burke in all directions, setting down
from two to flve times per day, the
drops being small, we threshed about
100 bushels per day and about 1000
bushels per season, getting one tenth
as toll for threshing. We thought
that fairly we'll at that age, coming
in contact with only few other ma
chimes Of about the same makeup.
There was then only one mounted
thresher TO my knowledge
at that time; it was run by Mr..
Joseph Pool, in Silver Creek Town
ship.
But now comes the point. There
has been great progress in this
section since 1871 in many respects,
So last year, 1901, there were six
e-power and one steam separator
in this (Morganton) town
ship threshing from 5000 to 30, 900
bushels per machine. This is indeed
great progress in wheat culture for
one township in Burke County.
And yet there are other things ad-
vanoed fully as much and some bet
ter, which may mention at another
time If this finds q place in the
columns of your valuable paper.
Perhaps might make this more in
teresting by including the whole
space of time between these dates
as have had experience
with wheat threshing most of the
time from 1871 to 1885. But to make
il as short as possible, it is only
q nscessary to give the first and last
years of the period in or to show the
difference between 1871 to 1901.

The Department. of Agriculture has
published in the January, 1900 Bulle-
tin description of these various
materials, with explanation of how
TO mix them in proportions suited to
different crops. The January, 1902,
Bulletin, which has just been issued,
also contains a number of formulas
for mixing fertilizers for cotton and
corn, as we'll aG compost formulas,
using stable manure, rich dirt and
suitable fertilizer materials for bal
anoing them and suiting them to the
needs OF different crops.
Copies of these two bulletins will
be furnished to any resident of the
State who applies for them.
