CATTLE RAISING.
Pronounced One of the Op-
portunities for Development
in this County-A Man
Who Ought to Know Ex-
presses His Opinions.

". A Brown, of this city, IN
speaking Of the business of the
county, says that something has
got to be done to improve present
conditions in Marion, aud adj
vises more attention to stock rails,
ing on the part OF the farmers, if
we would improve conditions.
Mr.. Brown expressed this Opin>
ion ia a recent interview with a
News reporter, and furthermore
added that All object lesson can
we'll be taken from the present con
ditions in Bledsoe county, where
cattle raising has been the leading
feature for years past, bringing
large sums of money into the coun
ty and practically forming its prosA
perity. Up there they plant corn
only to turn it into beef or pork
and every scrap of rough feed is
carefully saved.
"Those people up there said
Mr. Brown, "are wise, anu Marion
county farmers should hasten to
profit by their example, and 60 in
to the business on a systematic
manner a.
He then said that the custom Of
burning the mountain over every
fall or spring should be stopped, as
it was mistaken ideB that it as
sisted the growth of the grass, but
on the contrary destroys grass that
would feed yearlings till late in
the winter ii not ali winter.
He hoped that the influence of
progressive citizens would be tn rnA
ed 10 this business aud that with
plenty of fat cattle and hogs to sell,
good roads to transact business
over, and prosperity reflected on
the face of every man, Marion
county could attain a more i'm.
portant place in the commercial
world. The county is not as
productive as it should be, and a
determined effort should be made
to raise more stuff to sell in the
foreign market. Until we do this
we will drag along in the same
proitless channels.

Small Farms Are Best.

1t is small farms that make the
country. not extensive ones. We
once lived in a rural neighborhood
in Grimes county, embracing about
twenty small farms, There were a
neat nsighborhood church and
prosperous we'll attended school.
At the little village on the creek
the neighbors would assemble on
Saturdays, do their trading and
brag about their crops and horses
and cattle and hogs. 1t was real
pleasure to be one of the number.
The village and the surrounding
country were prosperous and haps
pY. and all worked together for
the public good. This condition
lasted for many years until a Miss
sissippian came and purchased
one of the best farms. But the
farm was too small, and the pro-
prietor was rich. He bought two
more farms from brothers, and the
next year he bought others, until
he owned $4,000 acres of fine land
aud had it nearly all in cultivar
tion. The school was broken up.
Only missionaries used the
church, and the village was almost
depopulated and business was un-
done, for the proprietor of the l3 :
0OO acre farm purchased less goods
aud wares than any one Of the far,
