AT a recent athletic meeting the
second football team elected c. S.
Hadley '09 captain and Bristol '07 mana
ger. 1t is thought that some games can
be arranged with nearby high schools.
Some of the students, together with
Prof Wright and Instructor Wetherell
are trying to start a literary society.
They propose to have some good speakers
here during the year.
During the convention in town of the
Epworth League we had many visitors
at the chapel exercises. r
Saturday morning the college football
team left on the sleeper for Canton, n.
y, where they played ST. Lawrence
University that afternoon. 1t was a
long tiresome trip and the result was a
decided victory for st. Lawrence. Mid
dlebury played a defensive game most
of the time, having little opportunity
to carry the ball. st. Lawrence plays
a return game in the near future, and
the boys are determined to be in better
condition. The next scheduled game is
with r. p |. at Troy next Saturday.

The progressive farmer and the cotton plant. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1904-1905, 1905-02-07
A POULTRY DEPARTMENT.

Some Progressive Farmer readers grow cotton
some, tobacco; some, truck; some wheat; some,
corn-and so on and so on But whatever else he
may raise not raise, every subscriber raises
hens. And the hens universally makes her very
commanding figure in agricultural finance. Thus
it is fact that the poultry and eggs raised in the
one State of Missouri last year worth more
than the purchase price of all the Louisiana
Territory from which dozen States and Terri
tories have now been carved. Or to come nearer
home statistics show that the poultry and eggs
raised In North Carolina any year worth
more than our wheat and oat crops combined !;
worth more than our hay and forage crops; worth
more than one-third our cotton crop two-thirds
tobacco crop.
In view of these too little appreciated facts,
there is probably just ground for the criticism
that The Progressive Farmer until now has given
too little attention to poultry subjects. But this
shall not be true any more We have now made
arrangements with one of the most successful
Poultrymen of the State, man with fifteen years
experience in managing hens, to conduct poultry
department for us, and this will appear regularly,
beginning next week.
We hope that readers will cooperate with
the editor by writing their experiences and sending
him such questions as they may wish answered.

Profits In Canning Fruits.

Messrs Editors Farmers are now looking for
something to take the place of part of their cot
ton crop, and with your consent, I desire to call
attention to what can be done in the way of can
ming fruits and vegetables. The farmer raises the
fruits and vegetables and can allow them to re-
main the tree or vine until thoroughly ripe
and thereby acquire their most delicious flavor.
He gather and can them same day without
brusing injuring them. This cannot be done
in the large factory, therefore they cannot com
pete with the farmer in quality. He does most
of the work, with the aid of his own family, and
it is done during summer months when other
work is over, which gives him another large ad-
vantage in way of profits. His goods are the
very best and a finished product, therefore he
can have a voice in pricing them-a luxury which
is denied him in raising cotton, but which he
might bring about by diversifying. The profits on
acre of canned tomatoes or string beans will
run up to several hundred dollars when rightly
managed and all the work is done on the farm,
and the amount that can be saved by canning
and marketing the peaches, apples berries etc..
that usually wasted. will surprise any ole who
has not duly considered it. l think this subject
worthy of investigation by all our progressive
farmers y. IT, RANEY.

Proper Cultivation of Tobacco.

Messrs. Edtors:-Tobacco is like most other
crops the best time to cultivate is before planting
Land well broken is half cultivated. However,
don't let the plant suffer for blowing or hoeing.
The time to break the land depends what
growth is on the land. IF there is a growth of
broom sedge, plow in late summer early fall If
hog weed or other annual plants, early winter
will be time enough. The next Flowing should be
in February or March, when the rows run off
three and one-half feet, and applied
when it is to be used. When only two tons or
less of farm-yard manure are used, better results
are obtained by drilling when more, it is desirable
to broadcast; when manure is drilled, bed the
land drill the manure in the water furrow and
cover lightly About the 1st of April run fur
row with a sweep In the water furrow, mixing the
manure with the soil, drill the commercial fer
tilizers in this furrow, with two burrows of
a turning plow, and leave until ready to put out
plants When the plants large enough to
transfer to the field, run log over the list, thus
leaving the land nearly level and fresh place to
set the plant Give each plant thirty inches in the
drill The first cultivation should be given as
seon as the plant has taken root. Great care
should be taken to break the crust around the
young plant This has to be done with hoes. Then
cultivate after every rain as the nature
of land will permit, giving deep cultivation at
first and shallower the plants get larger. After

recommended that township meeting of cotton
growers be held February 18th, and county meet
ings February 10th. I trust that these dates will
be followed by our North Carolina farmers. The
date Of our State meeting will be announced next
week. when the Editor has asked me to write at
greater length for Progressive Farmer readers.

the tobacco has begun to spread, the land should
be stirred very shallow, one inch two inches,
the lateral roots are then reaching out for
food and moisture Often the firing of tobacco
is charged to the fertilizer when the cutting of
the roots by improper cultivation is to blame

GROWING PEANUTS.
The Best and Cheapest Way to Cultivate and Cure
the Crop.

Messrs Editors To make good peanuts, break
or furrow the land good in May. Run your rows
two and one-half feet apart. Put in 200 pounds
of acid phosphate in the drill. Make list on
same with a small wing or B. D. plow without
splitting the middle. Plant with the Cole planter
eight inches apart, Spanish peanuts When the
peas begin to up, run weeder cross-wise
the beds or rows. Then wait until all peas are
up good, and then run cultivator with small or
narrow teeth on) close to peas as you can
without covering up. Do not let them get grassy.
Cultivate the balance of season with cotton
plow and the last plowing ridge up the dirt good
around the vines. Let them remain until the
vines begin to show signs of being ripe. Then
take B. d. plow, with only point on, and run
furrow to the row directly under the vines to cut
the top root. Let the hands follow with pitch
forks and turn the roots up to the sun. Then
let remain until vines wilt enough to make good
hay (about two days), then with horse hay rake,
rake IN wlndrows you would hay while there is
no dew water on the vines. Then haul to the
barn and pack away.
If they get little hot it will not hurt either
the vines nuts, unless you disturb them while
in that condition. When you go to thrash several
months after you will find nice, clean white nuts
and beautiful hay or vines.
This is my experience for the past two years.
[ give it to the public to benefit poor farmer
who does not any crop to plant except six
cent cotton.
The vines will pay all the expense of the crop
and leave the nuts for profit and the vines thus
treated is the best feed I can get for old stock.
Ny mules kept fat for four months without any
corn fed on peanut vines alone. have nothing
to sell or gain, only the goodwill of my fellow
man.

Old Maid Problem Solved

Recent census returns show that there
exists in Massachusetts a superhuity of
unmarried women of manageable age-in
short, of what the world ungallantly calls
old maids. Yet Governor Douglas has is
sued no executive message. But the king
of Slam, in whose kingdom there exists
the same state of affairs in respect to
bachelor maids as in the Bay state, has
shown a greater craftsmanship and a
keener appreciation of the situation. He
himself having married all the women he
considers the royal revenues can possibly
support, and finding. a large number still
left over, has issued a proclamation de-
claring that his royal heart is grieved for
the lonely state of the many thousands
Of bachelor maids throughout his domains,
and offering to issue a free pardon to any
prisoner who will marry even one of them.
In most cases the gracious offer of the
king has been gladly accepted. But in a
few instances confirmed old bachelors have
refused to purchase their liberty at such
a price For these delinquents the lord
of the red umbrella and the white ele-
plant will doubtless devise a fitting pun
ishment-if, indeed, any punishment can
be found even in the orient to fit such a
crime.
