In fact, the club was not entirely forgotten during the vacation which recently terminat- ed The members of the club assem- bled at the A. B. hall upon the occa- sion of the arrival of each of the ex- cursions during the summer, and enter tained excursionists and disseminated information about Alaska and enter tained the city's guests. AS a result Of this work, many letters have been re- ceiyed from different portions of the country from those who were enter tained. Especially has this feature of the work of the club been circulated among club women throughout the country.

The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1903-02-10

News and Observer: There was
recently started close to Raleigh
what is very probably the beginning
of great industry, ,one that will mean
much for the city. This is nothing
less than a stock farm, for the rails
ing and fattening of cattle and sheep
for the beef markets. The farm was
started last week by Mr.. J. B. Vree-
land, of Patterson, N. j., and Mr.. 7.
A. Armstrong, of this city. They
have so far bought only a few head
of stock, as a sort of experiment or
feeier, and, if success is assured, they
will stock the farm on a large scale,
buying cattle and sheep wherever
possible. There are $40 acres in the
tract of land used, and it lies just a
mile and a half beyond the Catholic
Orphanage, about three miles south
west of the city The land was
bought from Dr. A w. Goodwin.
needed for the consump-
ton of the stock and the mainten-

dirt. There we're millions of loads
of dirt hauled that we're not worth
scattering. The people are making
just as big mistakes now, by applying
large amounts of fertilizers on land
deficient in humus. You cannot
make land rich without humus.
The great question then, is how
to get and keep the land full of
humus. You that are engaged in
teaching, have found out that the
easiest way to teach a boy is to
teach him to teach himself. I have
found out by thirty years of expert
ence that it is better to grow the
vegetable matter on the land. To do
that I have adopted a three years.
system Of rotation: CD A pea vine
crop, or rest; then (2) corn, and
CD follow the corn crop with cot
ton. Always blowing in all the waste
part of the crop, [ manure each
crop. L put dOOuG SIX uuuuF0O
pounds of manure on the hay 9roQ.-
made in proportion, five Of phosphate
and one of muriate of potash-this
quantity per acre-I cut off all the
hay needed on the farm, and plow
in the rest of it, my object being to
improve the land. Take any old
field that is underIaid with red clay,
then adopt the above system, use a
liberal amount of fertilizers on each
crop, and by the time you reach it
with the third cotton crop, you will
make one bale per acre, if you use a
prolific kind of cotton.

to give US a letter on how best to
grow the vegetable matter on the

Manure, Fertilizer, and Crop Rotation.
Editor of The Progressive Farmer:
l see a communication in The
Progressive Farmer from DR.. Kill
gore, on how to keep up farm fer
tility. AS far as stock manure will
go, I see no chance for any person
to improve on the plan laid down
by the Doctor. But it is not posi-
bic for the average farmer to raise
enough stock manure to go over his
entire farm. The greatest part of
the trouble is to keep up the part
left after the stock manure gives out.
After the Civil War people under
took to keep it up by hauling poor

The Angora Goat bulletin of the
Department of Agriculture presented
such interesting facts and figures as
to the profits to be made by raising
goats on scrub land suitable for
nothing else, that hundreds of inquir-
les have been received on the sub
ject. The Angora goat industry is a
rapidly growing one.

The Farmer and the Interest Law.
Editor of The Progressive Farmer:


Harry Farmer has, in my opinion,
greatly erred in advocating or 10
per cent interest as best for farmers.
I admit that it is best for farmers to
borrow money and pay cash for sup
plies. The interest itself will not
amount to as much as the extra per
cent charged for goods on time. If
Harry Farmer had made this plain
and said nothing about raising the
rate of interest, he would have done
good in getting some of your farmer
readers to thinking.
The Morning Post of February 1
gives a portion of Harry Farmers
letter as published in The Progress
sive Farmer and, in commenting On
it, advocates a higher rate of inter
est. Why Harry Farmer and The
Post should advocate a higher rate
of interest as best for farmers, is
surprise to me. The farmer who
can borrow money at all can get all
he wants at the present rate of 6
per cent; and l believe he could get
all he wanted at a rate far below 6
per cent if the limit were placed as
low.
The rate of interest does not eff
feet a great number of borrowers.
A poor fellow hard put for $50 gives
his note for $75, bearing the regular
rate of interest.
I am glad to say that any farmer
of Vance County who will pay his
debts can get all the money he wants
at 6 per cent-and doesn't have to
pay any bonus either.
If Harry Farmer and The Post
will make plain to the farmer the
curse of buying on time or the get
ting of anything on time, they will
do them a great deal of good. Ny
advice to farmers is to do most any
way rather than go in debt for sup
plies to make a farm.

Editor Of The Progressive Farmer:
"WiIl Harry Farmer or others tell
through the Progressive Farmer
how they pasture hogs and keep them
from roofing. / despise to see ev-
cry spear of grass bottom upwards ~
So writes Mrs. J. r. Walker, Ruther-
fordton, N. G.
We seldom have any rooted up for
us. We plow our land in beds and
have a furrow between the beds.
Hogs seem to like a place of this
kind to walk in. If your pasture is
level land and is very small, it would
be best to put rings in the noses of
the pigs. There may be quantities
of worms under the punches of grass
which the hogs like better than they
do the grass; if this is the case, moth
ing but rings in their noses will stop
them from roofing. We thank Mrs.
Walker very much for her kind
words, and are very glad to know
that The Progressive Farmer has
helped her.
We were forcibly impressed with
Superintendent Joyner's suggestions
in regard to the public schools, es-
pcc;ally the one requiring boys over
fourteen years old to be able to read
and write before obtaining work in a
factory. But why confne the law to
factories! Let it apply to every
kind of work. Give a reasonable time
for the law to go into effect, and it
VIII work but little hardship on any
body. When we were only about s
years old father employed a boy to
work, and among the first jobs was
to stack rails-that is, to put one end
on the stump and leave the other
end on the gronnd in order that the
rails might dry off so that they
would be lighter to haul. When the
boy came in at night we asked him
how many he had piled that day, and
he replied, 81 have piled seventeen
mites" "What made you count them
that way?" He answered, Because
can't cOun1more than fifty" We
DO not know when we learned to
count, and as we could count to
thousand, it surprised us to think
that a boy eighteen years old could
not count beyond fifty. Yet there are
many boys who are in the same con-
dluon to-day. There are places now
that require persons to be educated
sufficiently to read and write before
they can obtain employment. All
the railroads require this of en-
glneers. 1t has only been a few

The scarcity of meat supplies
should encourage the chicken indus
try. Many sheckels can be gathered

attention is given to this matter

years since they laid aside large
number for this very cause. Some
of them had pluck enough to buy a
spelling book and studied until they
could pass the required examination,
if their heads did have "the silver
among the gold"
Give us the educated person ev-
cry time to transact business with.
And there is no place where an edu-
Gated person can make his knowl-
edge count for more than on
farm. A gentleman bought a large
farm in this county (Columbus) a
few years ago. Instead of employ
ing some man to look after it at a
cost of 5000 a year,as was the custom
at that time, he employed a college
man at $500. His neighbors predict
ed that he could not make enough
to pay his overseer or superintendent
and other help on the farm. But
this same overseer sells nearly or
quite enough to the neighborhood
to pay his salary, while the owner is
receiving a nice income from that
farm. AS we have said before in
these columns, if we had just one such
educated farmer in every township
in the State it would revolutionize
the agricultural interest as nothing
else would.
Here it is February. Well, SOW
oats and plow all lands that are dry
enough. Haul out manure, and
Irish potatoes can be planted any
where in the eastern and southern
part of the State the last part of
this month. The weather is very
warm to-day (February 3rd). If it
continues a few days peach and
plums will bloom out.
This reminds us of an experiment
tried at the Kansas Experiment
Station, and we are going to try it
this season to keep the blooms back
as late as possible. Just spray the
trees with whitewash.

SCRIBE WAS TOO WISE.
Employed Strategy to Avoid Angray
Man With Whip.

BY keeping line of retreat conven-
iently open and by exercising the finest
kind OF strategy, local newspaperman
lodged a horsewhipping Saturday
night. The intentions of the party
with the blacksnake were of the very
best, but the scribe was wise in his
day and generation and scampered to
the tall brush.
The episode was most amusing.
Saturday morning New Ulm paper
came out with sens ational story
concerning suit which had been COM
menced in the district court. Refer
ences which were made to the defend
ant were not exactly of a compliment
tary nature and that evening the gen.
tleman who had been maligned insti-
tuted short campaign after the desci-
pie of the fourth estate.
He encountered the scribe on North
Minnesota street but the latter was
fortunate and ''saw him first" Step
ping into a grocery store and taking
up his position within easy reach of a
set of weights, the newspaper man
waited valiantly for the foe. A brief
glance into the store evidently con-
vinced the pursuer that his quarry had
escaped, for he resumed his walk up
the street and, after allowing a decent
interval to elapse, the fugitive fol-
lowed his example.
Near the Dakota House the owner
OF the whip caught sight of the object
OF his quest but again there was
sidestepping of the issue. The pub
Usher did manage to muster up suffi-
Gent courage to shout defiance at the
man with the grievance but immedi-
ately skipped into the first store build
ing that offered and retired gracefully
from the field. Thus was the dignity
of the profession preserved and an
annoying brawl avoided.
