Beulah. April 20.-Still the cold
, nights continue but crops keep on
growing just the same, but it looks as
though 9 temperature of IS, as it was
last Sunday morning at 5 O'Clock, is
little too cold for crops of most any
kind, and it never got above so at AMI
time during the Gay. We kept fires
IN the house al day to keep comfort.
able as it was colder in the house
than j: was out of doors.
We had a good rain last Saturday.
We did not need 1t very much but II
will do good and help some things
Eow ana others later on.
Mr.. John Hirst was the first man
from this place to market new Irish
potatoes that have heard of. He
took some TO Pensacola last Friday
and sold them at the rate of four
Collars per bushei. He generally gets
TO the front when there is ANYTHING
doing that has money IN it.
The German colony at the s mile
are busy improving their places and
VIII make success OF it if hard work
ana plenty OF it counts for anyth Il.
| have just been called on by an
agent for a hay press. Now while a
hay press is a good thing TO have if
you have use for it, it is a very poor
piece of machinery to invest in in a
new country like this where there is
so little hay raised, but he will find
plenty that can be talked into buying.
and when their notes come due they
will see that the money they have to
Day would have stopped more holes
than hay press will Ny idea is
that there Is very little money in sell
ing hay on OF the land at even a good
price, unless 1t is a surplus that you
cannot feed out. A-few head OF cat
tie viii press about all of the hay
raised on the average farm here and
will be glad to do 1t for nothing, and
will return about IS per cent back to
the land in the form OF a first-class
fertilizer. Don't sell hay unless you
have to. And | might add, don't
monkey with agents of any kind IN
less you want to play another mans
game with the usual per cent in his
favor. We have been up against it
and think We know of what We write
to cot.
