The sugar beet will not win out in
those localities where the COW, clover,
corn, hogs and the fat steer will do
well, and there is no use of attempt
ing it.
Where only one man in a neighbor-
hood uses wide tired wagon it is
good deal like this home missionary
work on the frontier-one saint trying
to convert hundred sinners.
There are men who will cheat in the
matter Of selling milk and piling up
cord wood who are considered pretty
straight other ways. These two things
offer temptations which they are un-
able to resist.
The roots of the cannas should be
taken up as soon as the frost comes
and be placed in the cellar on some
dry sand. In the spring they may be
separated and the individual tubers
used as stock for the plants of next
year.
An old and good friend of OURS who
is close to ninety years of age does all
the plowing on his large farm with
three good horses and a riding plow.
He can drive the team, but he could
not walk two miles. He tells us that
he likes to do the work.
Perhaps one of the most favored
fruit growing sections of America is
to be found in the Pecos valley, in
New Mexico. There elevation offsets
low latitude, and with irrigation
conditions are obtained which are sim
ply perfect for the production of the
apple, peach, plum and grape.
A neighbor criticised us for cutting
up a lot of fodder corn when, as claim
ed, it was too green. Maybe it was,
but as luck would have it had we left
it standing a week longer belated
hailstorm would have left us none to
cut. 1t is pretty good rule to take
things in this world when you can get
them.
We have succeeded in getting two
crops from the same piece of land this
year, the first crop q big one of straw
berries; then, the bed being two years
old, was plowed over in early July,
and now we are harvesting nice crop
of turnips. We can also get crop of
corn fodder from land previously
planted to early potatoes.

There are a good many advantages
n living in a two crop section Of the
country : those localities where two
crops may be easily raised on the same
field each year Texas is one Of these
crop Of winter wheat and /
another Of potatoes, kaffir corn, soy |
beans or millet readily maturing after
the wheat is harvested. Of course, this
sort of farming is hard on the land and
soon wears it out
There are all through the northwest
