Name Your Farm.

A late issue of the St. Louis Mirror contains a
suggestion that we have sometimes made in this
paper, and now more than ever before, think
should be needed. That is, that farmers should
all name their homes. It has been the common
practice in Virginia, and to some extent in the
other older States since they were settled, to give
each farm home a name. Many of them have be-
come historic. For many reasons it is a COM
mendable practice. In the first place, it seems
to endear the home to it's owners in a way that is
never possible with a mere nameless farm. Then
1T seems to add to it's Importance in the commun-
lty so as to really make it worth more in dollars
and cents. Moreover, when it happens, as it often
does, that there are in the same neighborhood
several families of the sam name, the naming
of the farm enables one to differentiate one fam
lily from the other in the shortest and most di-
rect way. thus, it is easier and explains better
to say the Venables of Longwood, and the Vena-
bles OF Scotgreen, or the Watkinses of POPLAR
Hill and the Watkinses of Sunnyside, than to
nave to refer to one as the family of Mr. W. E..
Venable and the family of Mr.. Thomas Venable
But In addition to this, when rural mail delivery
becomes general, as it will be sure to do, it will
be a great convenience to the carriers to have all
the roads named, and the farms both named and
numbered. Whenever this comes to be done. it.

fifteen bales on his little farm. Half Of this will
pay expenses and the other half will be to the
good. Farmer Caldwell is a little, sawed-off
Dutch fellow, who came here ten years ago and
bought a small piece of land overgrown with
brlers and pine bushes, and didn't really make
enough to pay the taxes. He built a little home,
then burnt a brush pile and sowed cabbage seed,
then planted some hard cider apple trees. With
these essentials attended to, he then began dig
g1ng up pine bushes, shoveling out bitches and
hI1ng gullies. He planted more orchards and
some grape vines and strawberries. A little at a
time, mind you, but he kept hammering and fer
tllizlng and cultivating until now the one-time
WORKOUT strip Of land is a snug little farm with
broad fertile, well drained, productive fields, and
the barns and cribs full and the old leather peck
etbook bullying with crisp ten-dollar bills.
Now do you know what this old fellow does
with his money? Well, he keeps back enough to
run him next year and a nest egg for a possible
contingency, and then he dresses up his wife real
nice and they ride around on the train and go to
places and visit friends and enjoy the fruits of
their labor. Not one man and woman out of a
thousand could have eked out a bare subsistence
on that farm. But with these people it was diff
ferent. This success came to them not by chance,
bless your hearts, but by hard cider, saur kraut
and perseverance.
Farming pays, and it pays handsomely. Every
day hayseed is rising and these ffteen-cent, shall

The Law as to Barbed Wire Fences.

Ihe general public may not remember that the
acts OF the North Carolina Legislature of 1895
make it a m~isdemeanor for any one to erect a
barbed wire fence along a public highway with
out placing a o-lnch slat at the top as a warning
to stock, but such is a fact. In Stanly County p
few days ago a citizen whose mule had been Sc
rlously injured by running against a barbed wire
fence, said fence having been erected in violation
OF the statute made and provided, brought suit
ant was bound to court. People who erect barhed
by taking warning. ~
