This glorious southland offers a
thousand opportunities to the wide

the field of opportunity open to young
men. The young man himself is prone
to lamentations because he is unable
to see before him such opportunities
as were open years ago to his father
and his grandfather for making ca
reers and building fortunes. The
circumstance that the father AMI
grandfather in question pretty
generally failed to take advantage Of
the opportunities which were open to
them, and that the value of such op-

few for demonstration, ought to have
a certain educational value to tho
young man who is just starting in life.

FOUR TO SIX BALES AN ACRE
How to Produce Four to Six Bales
of Florohora Cotton On
an Acre Of Ground.

When soil is not wet, break thor
oughly IL to Is inches deep. following
double plow with subsoiler. Harrow
repeatedly when soil is dry, thereby
conserving moisture and finely divid-
ing all particles. Lay off in five feet
rows, applying 400 pounds per acre of
complete fertilizer. Leave cotton
three feet apart on bed, one stalk in
hill. Cultivate shallow and rapidly,
distributing in the middle of the row,
when cotton is about one foot high,
400 pounds more of very soluble
properly-balanced fertilizer. Repeat
this at intervals of about three weeks,
until a total of II 200 pounds per acre
has been applied. 1t is not necessary
to open furrow in middles for these
applications, the better plan being to
distribute on top of the ground.
In order to economic in plant food
one should be governed by the previous
condition of the soil-some soils re-
quiring an abundance of one particular
element of plant nutrition, while an
adjoining area might contain an ex-
cess of that identical element. I shall,
take pleasure in answering any inquiry
ON this line. Let me know character
OF soil, what crop it has last grown
if in cotton, whether we'll fruited, or
tending to run to weed, and the yield
per acre; also whether inclined to rust.
With this information l shall advise
what ingredients are necessary for the
proper compounding of suitable fer

thorough mixing; also analysis of in

FARMER AND PLANTER.
A WORD OF CAUTION.
DO Not Let the High Price of Cot-
ton Lead You Into Extrava-
giant Production,

The present high price of cotton will
prove blessing or a curse according
to the use we make of it. If we decide
that We ought to strain every effort tc
produce cotton, even to the neglect OF
other crops, it will be a curse
What has produced this sudden rise
In price. The staple is no better and
the goods made from cotton do not
last any longer or do any better serv-
Ice. The rise is the natural consequence
from the scarcity of the cotton From
variety of causes We have produced
three rather short crops. One of these
causes is that we have quit planting all
cotton and begun to plant variety of
crops.
We are giving more of our time and
thought and land to producing food
crops and cattle. The result is that
we are very much better off. We have
something to live on at home At the
same time, the seasons and tho insects
and diseases have helped to reduce the
amount of cotton on the market.
II tho seasons had been about the
same as usual and the boil weevel did
no damage to the cotton, we would now
Ec selling cotton at eight cents.
We can bring the price down to eight
cents again very easily. All that we
need to do is to plant very large
area and buy great quantity of fer
tilizers and have a good season and it
will be down.
There are many writer's giving ad-
vice now which will be ruirous to the
farmers Of the south if We heed it.
Some are advising using more fertiliz-
ers than ever. This is a great mistake.
We are already buying more than we
arc using to profit
Georgia in particular went wild on
fertilizers last season. We do not need
to buy more fertilizers but to use what
We buy more economically and wisely
We should use more per acre. but the
acre should be better prepared so as
to get more profit from the use. We
should not buy any more fertilizer
than we can pay cash for. Buying fer
tilizers on time is a hurtful business.
1t is not good farming. Every note
given for fertilizer is a mortgage upon
the crop before it is planted. These
notes hurt us in many ways
Again, the cotton seed from last
years crop will pay for the fertilizers
for this year. The farm should be self
supporting. Buying fertilizers on time
encourages laziness and thriftlessness.
Many idle away the precious days
for preparation and say. Oh we'll. we
can get fertilizers on time and make
Gotten on that land any how, even if
we do not prepare it as we ought. They
substitute fertilizers for work. Thus
laziness is encouraged.
The simple fact that they can buy
fertilizers on credit, encourages men to
buy other things on credit Men who
could by little effort keep out of
debt and thrive are thus encouraged
to keep in debt ane never thrive. 1t
tends to make us feel that going in
debt is all right and honorable, and to
a certain extent desirable It is d.
moralizing.-Southern Cultivator.

SOME FRETFUEEESs.

The little sermon in yesterdays New York Herald began with these words Iof the PsaImist, Fret not thy self" and then In the very next column the usually placid Herald proceeded to Sret itself and try to fret other people with an editorial dealing with what it 'euriousIy called ..an almost incredible state of affairs" The almost incredible state of affairs consists Of the familiar fact that from F o'clock midnight until 5 o'clock in the morning the New York. New Haven and Hartford Railroad company doesn't start passenger and mail trains out of New York towards Boston. The Herald's fretfulness seems to indicate that though two trains for passengers and mails leave New York for Boston at F o'clock mid night most of the people of New York are aching to start for Boston after midnight, and that the mails ought al- ways to go after midnight and before 5 a. m.
 Of course if trains were running out of New York for Boston every five min utes during the whole twenty-four hours somebody would be accommodate ed. but managers of railroads have lim- ita.ions Their aim is to do good and incidentally make a little money. In order to make the money they have to accommodate the public, and we sup pose the managers of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company have found that the arrange ment complained of by the Herald does accommodate the public. From F midnight to a. m. is a rather quiet time, and it is possible that there is not that general burning desire to get out of New York during those hours which the Herald seems to feel. It is also pos sible that the pressure of the mail mat ter is not as insistent as it seems to the Herald. When it is it will make itself felt. Meanwhile railroad managers who ought, we suppose, to be "cussed" on general principles should not be speci- fcally cussed unjustly.
