THE FARMER OF TO-DAY.

Few, If any, who understand
what is now going on in farming
fail to recognize the fact that in
this calling the very best class Of
mind is today finding full outlet
and occupation The farmer as a
class can nowhere in this country
now be ranked with the opposers
Of progress, however it may have
been with them in the past.
The farmer of the present in
forms himself. He experiments
and reasons. He looks into the
cause or causes of what he sees.
And in this way we have mind
and muscle beautifully operating
together as never before in tilliDg
the soil. Thus we secure the
steadyfuse OF the one fertilizer that
Is good for every crop and every
operation on the farm. -Ex.

Care should be taken in starting
teams to work in the spring.
Much harm is often done by want
of little consideration and atten-
ton In this respect. "Watch, 'said
a farmer with large experience in
this business, ''the shoulders and
neck to see that the harness is not
CALLING them; and it would do no
harm, but possibly much good, to
wash with salt and water after
the days work is done. Salt and
water are cooling and toughening
and remove fresh soreness or in
famation. Do not increase the
amount of feed to work stock sud
denly-add a little every day, as
the work is increased, until the
allowance is reached"
Thus good working condition can
be maintained all the way.

A BIG MODEL FARM.

Preliminary arrangementsof the
development of the model farm IN
Coahoma county recently pur-
chased by Stuvyesant s, Fish, John
Jacob Aston and other New York
capitalists are now in progress.
The farm will be under the imme-
diate direction Of Capt. A.A.Sbarpe
man Of long experience in Delta
farming, and the planters of that
ection are awaiting the first ex-
per.ments with much interest.
The farm purchased is q 10000
acre tract just few miles from
Clarksdale and a thrifty class of
white laborers will be att once i'm
ported and placed at work con-
verting the wilderness into a
cleared section dotted with pros
sshomes. Several saw mills,
have been erected and the neces-
sary machinery has already been
ordered. Every available foot of
the tract, much of which is now
wild land, will be placed in a high
stateof cultivation, and the pro-
moters not only expect TO give the
planters of the Delta an astual IL
lustrution of model farming, but
are confident that they will reap q
handsome cash profit as well. Tho
land will be divided into 80 acre
tracts, and in selecting tenants the
owners will give preference to the
retired employees of the Illinois
Central system. 1t is now learned
from an authoritative source that
the railroad company intends, to
run a branch road through the
farm, connecting Mattson on a d.
rectiline with 1tta Bena. -Vicks-

Fodder corn, to make dry feed,
should be sown during June or in
early July, drilled thickly IN rows

will be the growth of the fodder.
It should be plowed and cultivated

Before our train departed we had time
to inspect the ship yards and see the
men employed in the different stages
of ship bnilding; the unloading of
cargoes from incoming vessels; and
the wholesale district, which is pro.
minent feature of Richmond. In the
brief period spent in the city, we saw
great deal, learning much of the
customs and habits of the southern
people, conversing with gray coated
veterans of the late great conflict, and
traversing the many scenes about
which we read so much in history

esque surroundings and historic remi-
niscences of the days when the nation
was being born, and again when it

building interests, employing over
1000 men. They are now engaged in
making six new battleships for the
United States, besides many other YES
sells of different natures We passed
the Chickahominy battle fields, and
sped rapidly across romantic old Nir-
ginia, with its sugar cane and corn,
its quaint old shanties occupied by the
ever present negro, arriving at Rich
mond, the Capitol of the Confederacy,
shortly before noon. Engaging car
riage for ride about the city, we had
the coed fortune to secure as driver
the we'll known colored guide, Mr..
John Wasar. who was staff hostler in
war times for Jefferson Davis, Presi-
dent of the Confederacy. He drove us
about the city, showing rs the princi-
pal points of interest, including
Castle Thnnder, where the spies, etc.
were kept during the civil war; the
site of Libby Prison, with the location
of the tunnel wnere the union soldiers
dug their way out with knives and
forks, and made their escape, being
occupied with the work twenty-five
days: also the noted "dead line" in
the prison the headquarters of Geo.
Washington during the Revolution, a
little old house over 800 years old,
containing many relics of the early
days; several large tobacco and ciga-
rette factories; Libby Hill Park, over
looking the city, given to Richmond
by the late Col. Libby, where the
monument to the Confederate soldiers
who were killed in the war stands ;
Chimborazo Park, hospital during
the war; old st. Johns church, where
Patrick Henry made his famous decla-
ration: sis life so dear, or peace so
sweet, as to be purchased at the price
of chains and slavery? Forbid it,,
Almighty God! 1 know not what
course others may take, but as for me,
give me liberty, or give me death. "
The pew in which he stood when max
ing this laconic speech has been pre-
served, as we'll as the church with all
its accoutrements, in its original form.
Many old time houses, built hundreds
of years ago, were visited. Among
them the home of Mrs. Van Lew, the
friend and aid of the union soldiers,
who died two years ago. The lO9
men who escaped from Libby Prison
were concealed in her cellar for two
days and nights undiscovered, and
made their final escape from thence.
