feeding and reckless fertilizing-ignorant stock
feeding and ignorant soi-feeding-would make
d gcodly kings ransom.
The farmers own residence should not be Tor
gotten, and no pains should be spared to make 1T
comfortable and healthful for winter. And don't
overlook the kitchen in which the wife or daughter
is likely to have to spend much time even on the
coolest days.
Then, too, have all the farm implem(nts-cultl-
vators, harrows, rakes, hoes, shovels, moving
blades, scythes, etc.-been properly put away Tor
the winter? If not, some of your money is need
lessly going to waste. Nothing pays better than
to have a Toulouse with a place for every inn
plement and every implement in its place.
Now is the time to get ready for the winters
reading. A farmer should no more think of enter
ing on the long winter season without intellectual
Good than without physical food. Besides local
and agricultural papers and a few good farm
books. the best magazines should be taken, and
some choice standard works put into the library.
Get the Agricultural Departments list of Farm
ers' Bulletins, and send for as many as you care to
read. They will be of just as much value to you
as if you had to pay so cents apiece for them.
Study your business, and see if you do not find
that there are some new phases of farming that
you should take up next season and some old
ruts that you should get out of. Get the catalogs
of different manufacturers and see if you should
not begin next years crop with better farm
machinery. And just here we are reminded of a
good illustration of the difference between the
use of old-fashioned and the improved tools. It
is given by a negro writer in the Norfolk News
and Advertiser (who got it from Booker Wash
ington) and we reprint it herewith:
"Down in Georgia we saw a colored man plant
ing corn. To give it to you in short, this colored
man had an old pillow that looked like one that
was handled a hundred years ago, with an old
broken down mule, harness partly in rags, and it
was a question of who looked the worse, the har-
ness or the mans pantaloons. While this man
and his mule would open up the row a man had
to go behind him and drop the corn, while an
other, with an old-time hoe, followed him to cover
it up, and when the day was gone the four, in
Guiding the mule, had worked themselves down
and had only done one-half a days work of a
modern farmer. On the other hand, we saw a
white man planting corn on one of the farms in
this State. This white man had a f~rst-class cult
waiting machine, with two fine horses hitched and,
instead of blowing one row, he plowed two, and
the new machine dropped the corn, covered it, and
the only thing we saw the man doing in the way
of work was that he was sitting on the machine
trying to prevent the horses from working them,
selves to death"

Moreover, there are thousands of Progressive
Farmer readers who ought to take the winter
course in agriculture or dairying at the A.. & M.
College this winter. Here you can get training
in the best methods of farm and dairy work for
ten week-January 4th to March 1Oth-at a total
cost for board, books, room, light, heat, etc., OF
only thirty dollars. While some farmers have left
their families and come to Raleigh to take this
course, and have declared themselves richly re-
paid, it can at least be said that young, unmar-
ried men who expect to farm cannot afford to
miss this opportunity for practical helpful in.

1t is said that the announcement
