PLANNING FOR NEXT YEAR.
If You Have Not Already Made Plans
Here Are n Few TimeIy
Suggestions.

Plant less cotton. Cut down the
area. If we plant as much or more,
just as soon as it is planted the fact
will be used to depress the price. The
large acreage we planted last spring
is helping to keep the price from what
it should be now. 1t will be used again
II we plant so much.
Again, we should increase the acre
age in all kinds of provision crops SO
as to be able TO raise the next crop
free from mortgages. We should plan
to own the next crop, and we should
begin to plan now and to prepare our
land better We should try TO grow
more cotton per acre and make a good
yield on less land. The spectators
not not discount our good work. Grow
more cotton if you can, bat grow it
on less land, and grow it cheap
er, and own it when you grow it. You
can do all of these by a little good
planning There are so many of the
items of daily expense that you can
raise upon your own farm. You can
have an early salad bed, plant lettuce,
onions, cabbage, Irish potatoes, aspar-
agus and English peas, You can grow
chickens and have a COW and few
pigs, etc. You can get through another
crop without any debts if you try.
Garry something to town to sell
when YOU go, and don't go too often.
Make your cotton seed pay for your
guano
Keep out of debt, and make all the
cotton you can.
This is the plan upon which you
ougt to farm. 1t will soon make you
entirely Independent.
You will be your own master, and
not the servant of the man you owe.
Make your plans for your personal
benefit If each farmer will do that,
the general result will be fo' the ben
fit OF all. If each farmer keeps out
of debt and makes a surplus, then the
farming interests will be in pros
porous condition. If each one pro
paIes his farm we'll by dee } breaking
and diversifies his crops. and buys his
fertilizers for cash and raises mis-
supplies at home, then the next cotton
crop will belong to the farmers, and
the price can not be manipulated. as
is done now, solely in the interest of
the Spectator.
These things can each and all be
done by wise planning for 1904.
The prospect for the southern farm
err was never so bright and encourage
ing as now. Use brains more, and de-
pend less upon habit and muscle. Cut
loose from the old beaten path and
walk along new ways. You will find
everybody ready to help you when
you begin TO help yourselves. Cut
down your acreage in cotton, and the
general acreage will be smaller. Cut
down your fertilizer notes, and your
store mortgages, and you will find that
farm life has brighter side than you
had thought. The speculator can not
discount your intelligence and your
independence. but he can and will dis
count large acreage and large IN
debtedness.- Southern Cultiyator.

THE COTTON BOIL WORM.
Some Facts I'm Relation to the Cot
ton Roll Worm and Methods
for Combating u.

The boil worm passes through four
distinct stages Of its life The entire
damage done by the insect is while it
is in the grown state The color of the
worm varies much. 1t ranges from red
to black and blue to green. After the
boil worm is full grown 1t enters the
soil and forms cell underneath the
surface, and there becomes a pupil
The moth scratches its way out of the
ground. Wet weather is more favor
able to the worm than is dry weather.
The moth or miller is the last stage
OF the worm. u deposits the eggs. The
moths winter in the pupil stage under
ground. They come out and feed upon
the tender roll of the corn plant. The
injury 10 the corn is very little in this
way. The boil worm is not common
ly associated with the destruction of
corn, but the damage Is very consid-
cradle in the aggregate The various
hroois feed on the soft roll. the tassel.
silk and soft kernels of the corn.
The boil worm enjoys a worldwide
circulation. In this country ii is an
enemy TO the tomato. Beans. peas AMI
other similar plants are prey TO the
boil worm. In Japan it eats tobacco.
In cotton, one boil worm will. in the
course of IFS life, destroy IS or more
bolls and innumerahle squares. All
parts of the cotton plant are attacked
by the worm. preference being given IL
the boil The effect upon the boil ~
various. Frequently but one lock OF the
boil being destroyed by the worm The
boil worm moth hides during the day
in trash and among the foliage OF the
cotton plant There are other moths
which destroy cotton. some of them in
q manner very similar TO the methods
of the boil worm. The boil worm has
numerous drawbacks, including disease
and predatory insects. The most fatal
is bacterial direase that destroys a
great many of them. The China fly is
also fatal to the worm. The ay lays
its eggs upon the skin of the worm.
The eggs hatcaes and generates the
moth, killing il Spiders and flies are
also fatal enemies of the boil worm.
The department has three plans for
combating the boil worm. The trap
crop of corn IS one of these. The boil
worm prefers corn to cotton Corn
kept in proper condition close to the
cotton field is good trap crop. The
value of the trap crop of corn was we'll
illustrated by the number of boil worm
eggs found upol corn. These eggs
would have gone to the cotton had the
corn not been there The theory of
poisoning the bell worm arises from
the fact that he young boil worm
crawls over the foliage and feeds The
poison there will kill number of the
worms. If the poisoning he done at
the right time. the saving may be as
much as 30 per "ent.-A L. Quintance

taking advantage of natural variation,

RcSt ResnIfS From NInnurc

When manure is taken fresh from
the stable or horse or COW lot and
spread on the fields in fal! or winter,
the greatest possible advantage is
realized therefrom. The soluble CON
stituents are in such cases leaehed
out by the rains and Incorporated with
the soil and are ii conditions to
promptly administer to the wants of
the crops as soon as the crops heed
plant food. The same manure. left
until just before planting. will have
the most valuable food leached out;
or if thrown in heaps will have the
nitrogen dissipated by the process of
slow combustion. which follows the
fermentation OF the mass. "Well-rot-
ted manure" means manure the vir-
tues of which are chiefly spent. The
writer has had manure heaps that ac
cumulated during summer reduced to
ashes, except a thin outside layer ex
POSED to the air and rain. Such ma
nure is of very little value where
nitrogen is required Farm and Ranch.

Getting Ready For Spring.

When cotton picking ends is an ap-
propriate time to put the farm in good
repair for the active work of early
spring. Fences, gates. barn doors and
other appliances and conveniences
may have gone crazy" roofs may
need patching; the mud holes in the
lane may need few loads of broken
stone, and there may be some fence
posts that need to be replaced with
new ones. When this is done a little
mechanical skill may be exercised
about the dwelling providing labor
saving contrivances and ordinary con-
yeniences for those whose labOrs new
er end A condition of things that
leaves the farmer nothing to do is al
ways imaginary. If there is no work
imperative there is always something
useful that may be done.-Farm and

Passing Of the Wage System

of United States Commissioner OF Labor

Under the wage system as outlined by the late
Iranci, Walker said the speaker, the wage worker
receives in advance from capital the measure OF his
labor this measure being recouped by the returns for
the product the wage worker thus being paid for his
services before the employer receives any return for
his cooperation with the labor
Under cooperation pure and simple the wage
Garner who is the co-operator, must wait until the
product is secured marketed and paid for. This,
perhaps is the real underlying why cooperation
in its simple form. and when applied to production,
