Attention
Farmers:

Why remain in the North and
stay in doors six months i'll the
year consuming what you raise
during the other six months?
Go South where you cali work
out doors every> month in the
year, and where ycu are prcduc-
ing something the yea: round.
If you are a stock raiser you
know your stock are now eat
ing their heads off" and, be-
sides, have to be protected from
the rigors of winter by eXpen-
sive shelter. Cost of production
determines place of production,
and Alabama and Florida can
produce beef and sheep cheaper
than any other state, and must
become the center of great in
dustry already begun. Econ
omical stock feeding requires
the combination of both flesh
forming and fat-forming foods
in certain proportions. Ala
bama and Florida contain mil
llOllS vi dNlCS vi lllullllLIl
cheap range, and these lands
when cultivated produce in
abundance the velvet bean and
cassava, the first a flesh pro-
ducer, and the latter fat pro-
ducer, and they are the cheap
est and best fattening materials
known to the world. If you

The Corn Crop of 1902.

Last years corn crop is the largest
ever known. The agricultural depart
ment estimates the yield in Illinois, on
the basis of twenty-five bushels to the
acre, to be 32O, O,07O, 900 bushels, while the
five other great corn States run: Kan
sas, 256, 10000 bushels; Iowa, 247,64O,- =
900 bushels, Missouri, 246, 100000 BUSH
els; and Nebraska, 234, 100000 bushels;
Indiana, 153, 2ss, 900 bushels. These
States furnish half the total crop of
2,264, 3s2, 600 bushels. Corn is grown in
every State and territory, Wyoming's
product, 10000 bushels being the small
est. Eighty per cent of this crop does
not move from the farm except as it
travels in the tissues of hogs and cat
tie. Four cents a pound for hogs on
foot equals forty cents bushel for the
corn-so the farmers figures. Ten per
cent of the crop is used for whiskey
and food and ten per cent. is exported,
the bulk of it going to England 90, S44,-
s43 bushels) and Germany (36,992, 634
bushels)

John 0, Johnson's Railroad.

The electric railroad from Camden to
Liberty was bound to come some day,
as our friend and correspondent, j Q.
Johnson, so earnestly insisted. This
irrepressible son of Liberty was among
the very first promoters of the Georges
Valley Railroad, waging his campaign
through the columns of The Courier
Gazette, and never Stacking his zeal
until the road was an accomplished
fact, though it failed to meet the ends
that he had desired it to achieve, mas
much as the road stayed its terminus at
Union, whereas the orginators had
purposed that Liberty should be its
goal Disappointed there, Mr.. johnson
yet continued his argument for rail
connections between the enterprising
inland town and Rockland, and our
readers will recall his recent articles i'll
this paper, in which the argument for
electrical rail connection was ably pre-
sented. We are glad that enterprislng
Camden men are to take hold of the
matter and that Capt. johnson is to get
his Liberty by electricity. Next sum-
mer We'll all ride up and see him.

enrolment of 391, of which number 275
are in the academic department. There
