Thoughts For Farmers.
JANUARY WORK.

Progressive Farmer:
1t is time that farmers were
getting ready for 1906 crops.
The old adage, "a good start is
halt the Journey" is certainly
true as to farm work. Timely
and thorough preparation before
planting is hall the labor ofmak-
ing a crop. The first thing to
look after is good and reliable
horses or mules. Then see that
suitable harness are on hand.
Let the old harness be repaired
and oiled. A box or two OF
rivets, a side Of harness leather
with a few buckles will enable a
handy farmer Guring the wet
days Of this season to make all
his harness good as new. Over
haul plowstocks and see that
heel bolts, l~ap-links, singletrees,
hoes, mattocks and all necessary
tools are in good order. There
r some thoughtless farmers in
South Carolina who cannot start
three or four hands 10 blowing in
the spring under two days, be-
cause last years tools are scatter
ed and no attention has been
paid to them until the time has
come to use them. cor course,
North Carolina has no such care
less and slouchy farmers.)

HOG NOTES.
By Shepherd.

breeding purposes it should not
be made fat.
A pig requires plenty of water
in its food but not in its bed.
A hog fed on nothing but corn
is always peevish aud in an in
flammatory condition.
The brood SOW should be fed
regularly and literally on flesh
and muscle forming foods.
Hogs should not be permitted
to sleep in the dust: it causes
mango and lung troubles.
If the sows have a defect that
YOU wish to breed out, the male
should possess the qualities de-
sired TO an extreme degree.
Many breeds of swine degene-
rate because the sows ARE used
for breeding purposes before they
are a year old.
1t is not always safe to condemn
a SOW for bringing a small litter
of pigs at first farrowing; she
may always do better afterwards.
The sow that is fed on bulky or
laxative food will rarely eat her
pigs at narrowing or during the
three weeks following.
When crowding the3hogs with
a heavy corn ration, be sure that
they have a full and free supply
of charcoal, ashes and salt.
A SOW that has been tried and
known to be a good mother,
should be retained as long as she
can be made serviceable.
The kind Of feeding that keeps
a lot of pigs or stockers from
three to six months without gain,
is a total loss of feed.
As a rule January is sufficient
ly early to breed the young sows
that are to farrow their fret lit
ter.
At least one-half of allshogs
used for breeding should be Of
mature age. Breeding from i'm
mature parents with excessive
feeding of corn weakens the con
stItution.
With the SOW in good condition
at narrowing time and the pigs
given a good start and so fed that
they will lose nothing at weaving
the foundation for a profitable
animal is laid.
Sows overfed or made extra fat
with an extravagant allowing of
corn will not breed so surely as if
their systems are in a cooler and
less feverish condition.
A good sow-one good in size.
disposition and quality of off.
spring-ought to be kept at a
profit until she is five or Six years
ole.
DO not keep the sows intended
for breeders and the hogs being
fattened for market in the same
pen. They need different feed to
do their best.
a race or family of hogs kept
on the same farm Will improve or
degenerate according to the abili
ty or shiftlessness of the owner.
BY a careful selecting of the
best and keeping all in a good
thrifty condition, a gradual i'm
prOvement may be made.-Live

FARM CONTRACTS.

FARM CONTRACTS.
In this State there was a sharp
fight between a landlord and a
tenant, and a few days later a
tenant killed his landlord just
because they had a misunder-
standing. Make contracts very
plain, whether written or verbal.
Let the tenant understand every
requirement in it. Let it be
known what he is to pay, where
he is to deliver the rent, what
will be required OF him in pre-.
pairing and caring for land, and
be sure to make the small details
plain. Most quarrels between
landlord and tenant result from
not understanding little things
apparently unimportant. Sup
pose a farmer rents for a part of
the corn, hay, fodder, small grain
and cotton. That covers the
greater portion Of the farm pro-
ducts. But let the tenant then
plant an acre in melons, two
acres in potatoes and receive all
the profits thereof, and he will
have a considerable advantage.
SDfn making contracts, let them
be plain and well understood.
THE SELECTION OF SEED
This is a very important and
necessary work hat should be
done long before planting time.
II put off till then just anything
In reach will be planted. In this
State we consider cotton the i'm
portant crop. The Georgia Elk
pertinent Station has been trying
many varieties Of cotton for sew.
eral years. 1t is evident that
select seed from best varieties
will make much more seed,
much more seed-cotton, much
larger bolls, and a much greater
per cent of lint than common
seed from the girner's pile.
The figures ought to be studied
by all cotton farmers, and more
.ould learn to try improved
vrieties and improve their own
seed by careful selection.

Recently what might have resulted
in serious conhagations have been dis
covered before any damage has result
ed. But unless more care is exercised
something serious may happen at any
time. Two weeks ago children play
ing in the alley in the rear of the
Reitman hotel set fire to a lot of rub
bish under the sidewalk at the back of
the Pat Morrow residence. A young
man happened along just in time to
put out the blaze before any headway
had been gained. Sunday one Of the
same youngsters set fire to rubbish back
of the little frame building formerly
used as barber shop by w. S. Miller,
and the flames gained considerable
headway before they were discovered
and put out. Yesterday afternoon fire
was discovered in the rear of John
Pruyne's little store near the News
Office, the result possibly of fire
cracker or cigar stub thrown carlessly
into some rubbish. Now isn't this
about enough Of this kind Of business?
Hadn't the business men better begin
right now to prevent any further repe-
tition OF such matters? These lite
fires may not always be seen just at
the right moment and it may happen
that one will start late at night when
no one happens to be around. There
fore every effort should be used to pre-
vent even children from starting small
fires just for amusement. 1t is a most
serious matter and must not be over
looked.

Editot Troy News:-I have had very
little work since came down here last
spring so I have had ample time to J
see how matters are conducted in re-
gard to operating the mines, etc. in
this part OF the world. They have (I
mean the big companies) got so much
labor saving machinery that it takes
considerable less laboring men to oper-
ate now than it did before, SO work is
very scarce here and there are hun
dreds Of people here willing to work if
they could only get something to do.
Nothing is going on here in town to
mention except the longshore and
there are dozens for every job, and
people are still coming. Every boat
brings in more laboring men and 1
can't see what they are all going to do
or how they will be able to manage to
support themselves and 1 understand
that it is only very few that have any
money. In regard to prospecting,
that is out OF the question here as the
country around Dawson has been pros
pected for hundreds Of miles and
everything has been stalked that is
worth having, so I would not recon-
mend any one to come out here to this
place to seek work. AS far as other
business is concerned it might be all
right but it takes considerable capital
to start in any kind sof business. A
few thousands dollars will not go far
in this country. 1t takes at least four
times as much money to engage in
anything here as it does on the outside.

people begging in the streets, so that
is worse than this place. haven't
seen any beggArs here yet. l would
warn people against coming out here
unless they have at least 5000 so they
can buy a grub stake and outfit and
prospect for themselves. To come
here to seek work, my advice is not tc
come at all. I have not done any
prospecting since I came to this coun
try, but may try my luck at it for
while toward next fall, and if l don
