The progressive farmer and the cotton plant., 1905-05-23

Don't plow before dragging; plow-
ing gives soft foundation.
Never mind the ruts. Go right
ahead and drag, and they will dis
appear.
When road is to be dragged, first
drag the wheel tracks. After three
or four rains with dragging after
each rain, plow a shallow furrow Just
outside the dragged part, spread this
over with the drag. Plow only one
furrow. After two or three rains and
draggings pillow another furrow if
necessary. At each plowing you
widen the road about two feet.
Two horses can be used, but if you
have three, use three.
The drag can be made out of plank,
but the split log is best.
Don't limit your dragging to your
own farm. The best plan is for every
farmer to drag from his own front
gate to his neighbor's front gate to-
ward town. He is sure to see this
piece Or road often, and is apt to feel
more responsibility about it.
The cost of dra""ing a mile of
road a year will run from one to
three dollars. 1t depends on the sea-
son and the kind of a job done 1t
is hard to- estimate what it costs to
comb mans hair Or black his shoes
if he does it himself
IF the drag lodges around the
earth you are moving it is because
it is overloaded and you are trying to
do too much. The secret of success
in dragging is to do little often.
We urge every reader who is will
ing to do a good turn for his neigh
bors and himself 20 make one of these
drags and use it according to the
above directions. Give it fair trial
and let US have your experience q
year from now.

Replying to your card of 9Th in

Best Financial Conditions on Record.
Every expression concerning the
conditions of the farmer this winter
spring is that he is in better shape
financially than for years, if not
ever. It is the first year many of
the farmers were able to hold cotton.
The outlook is better because the
farmers are becoming better in
formed on all question by personal
contact in farmers conventions and
by reading good papers. and attend
ing "normals" The weather has been
very favorable for getting up crops,
but the warm spell and frequent
rains have caused the grass to be
a very troublesome enemy. The fight
is on now, and hard.

co show increased acreage, while cot
ton shows a decrease of "a 1-3 per
cent from 1904. Home and CONNER

Labor Scarce.

There appears to be reduction in
cotton acreage in this county and
about the same of tobacco as in 1904.
The acreage in wheat is small, but
the condition fair. Fertilizers are
reduced about Is per cent. Labor is
very scarce and inferior, and the gen
eral outlook is gloomy right now,

Farm Work Behind.

Right much cotton still in hand

less cotton planted this season. Very
little increase on the corn acreage,
owing to scarcity and high rrice for
farm labor. Farm work very much

lively no corn has been planted ow-
ing to the wet season. The acreage
to spring oats is the greatest ever
known. The acreage to corn would
have been increased considerably but
for the wet weather, and will be yet
if the weather will permit

From the best information I can
get the corn crop will be fully as
many acres as last year. Tobacco
and cotton will not be over 80 per
cent of last years crop. Our farm
ers are in a very fair condition
financially. Wheat and spring oats
very promising so far. Tobacco
planting will be late owing to late
preparations of land caused by too
much rain.
