When the soy bean was first intro
5uccd into America it did not form root
tubcrcles In order 10 insure the
growth Of the root tubercles it is neces-
sary to use seed that has been inocu-
lated CT 10 inoculate the soil with the
proper organism. This last is readily
done by applying broadcast a small
amount Of soil taken from a field where
soy leans developing root tubercles
have been growing. At the Maine sta
lion no tuborcles formed on plants
grown in soil that had not been in
uculated, but they grew abundantly
where soil from infested soy bean was
applied at the rate Of a few barrels
10 the acre. The beans will grow as
well without the root tubercles as with,
provided they are literally fertilized.
Their economical growth depends upon
Tho presence Of the root tubercles, as
in this way they can be grown with
little or no nitrogen in the fertilizer.
If they are to be grown on soil contain
ing no root tubercle organisms they
require a fairly liberal application of
b complete fertilizer. If grown in good
oil where root tubercle may be ex-
pectod to develop, only phosphoric acid
and potash need to be applied in the
fertilizer The soil should'b be prepared
us fer ordinary beans. 1t should be
made fine, free from clods and Jumps,
and smooth A good seed bed is essen
tial 10 a good growth.-DroverS Jour

LOUISIANA HOSPITALITY.
Strangers Were Treated Just the
Same as Members of the
Family.

A group OF drummers were trading yarns
on the subject of hospitality, relates Lipp-
incotts Magazine, wnen one, a little \ If,
ginian, with a humorous eye and a delightful
drawl, took up his parable thus:
Il was down in Louisiana last month trav'
elm cross country with s. j. Cary tthe
same being StOnewall jackson c., at your
service, wnen we kinder got lost in a mighty
lonesome sort O road just about dark. We
rode along a right good piece after shutdown,
and when we saw a light ahead | tell you
it looked first rate. We drove up to the
light, fndin' twas a house, and when
hollered like a lost calf the man came out
and we asked him to take us in for the night,
He looked at us mighty hard, and then said
Wal, | reckon | kin stand it if you kin So
we unhitched, went in and found twas only
@ two-room shanty and just swarmin' with
children. He had six, four to II years old,
and as there didn't seem to be but one bed,
me an Stoney was wonderin' what in thun-
der would become OF us.
They gave us supper, good hog and HON,
my, the best they had, and then the old
woman put the two youngest kids to bed.
They went straight to sleep. Then she took
those out, laid them over in the corner, put
the next two to bed-and so on. After all
the children were asleep on the floor the
old folks went in the other room and told
lis we could 60 TO bed if We wanted to, and,
bein' powerful tired out. we did.
"Well, sir, the next morning when We
woke up we were living over in the corner
with the kids. and the old man and the old
woman had the bed"

The Cost of Ignorance,

Ignorance and the lack of informa-
ton has cost the southern farmer many
dollars, and in many ways. First, be-
cause we have not had the practical,
chemical knowledge of our soils. We
lave spent millions Of dollars in sup
plying our land with fertilizing mate
rial that they were not deficient in.
For instance, some Of our lands are
well supplied with nitrogen or am
mcnla, especially after certain crops
have been grown the previous year.
Others contain potash or lime, or acid
phosphate. Still, as a rule, the farmer
will buy a complete fertilizer for his
crop, when only certain material is
needed, thus spending large sums of
money for material with which his soils
are already supplied.
I'VE have wasted time and money in
poor preparation Of soils for our crops,
ard In the improper cultivation Of same.
THE lack of knowledge in judging
live stock and the proper care of same
has also teen expensive to the south
ern farmer.
Another thing that has cost the
farmers sums Of money is the habit
we have of going from home to buy
Il mules, hay. corn, meat and other
things we could so easily raise at
home; for instance, Edgecombe county
raised last year about 5000 bales OF
cotton that sold for about one million
dollars, and she spent the same year
for mules, meat, hay, corn and fertlliz-
ers about three-ffths of this whole
amount, or 100000. Not only did we
nav Out this large amount for some
thing we could have raised at home.
but the oyer-production Of cotton cost
us nearly an amount equal TO this. the
difference in price We could have got
ten had The cotton crop been reduced
sufficiently to have enabled us to raise
these things at home.-E. l.. Daught-
ridge, in address at Farmers State

There is no doubt in my mind Of the
effect Of fertilizers applied to wheat
upon the seeding of clover made the
following spring, On my own farm,
where | have shut off the drill in seed
ing wheat SO as to SOW no fertilizer, the
effect was o only very noticeable on
the wheat, but was ever noticeable in
the second growth of clover the fol-
lowing year As a matter of fact, a
great many people use fertilizer on
wheat largely for the effect which this
fertilizer will produce on the clover
seeded the following spring, On a
light, sandy loan, | would use a ferti-
lizer that contains a comparatively high
per cent, of potash, as most light soils
are deficient in potash, and the clover
plant is a large consumer Of this ele-
ment. Take a fertilizer that analyses
something like | per cent, ammonia,
s PER cent, %phosphoric acid and 5 per
cent, actual potash, would, in my judg-
ment. be q good brand for this Light
soil with the express idea of benefiting
the clover sceding,-Cor. Orange Judd

DOING IN THE GARDEN.
Don't Plant a Garden and Then
Allow the Weeds to Choke
Down All Growth.

Many farmers work hard all summer
md raise fine crops and have fine gar
dens, but as soon a. crops are laid by
they stop all ann of work. In {
short time all vegetables are overgrown
with grass and weeds and brush fos
want of attention. | know farmers
now land unfortunately their name Is
iegion), who have from this sort o!
neglect lost alt their vegetables, and
now their wives are put to it to find
something to cook. Now this ought
not to be so. Work while you work;
play while you play, is the way to be
cheerful, happy and gay, but too much
of it will put you on short rations.
No one likes TO see the young and
old folks enjoy themselves more than
|, but there should be moderation in
hours to play.
Now begin to cultivate your turnips.
Those tomato vines that have fallen
down and died with bushels of neg
lected tomatoes on them, can be cut
off, cultivated, and manned suckers
will put up from the roots. These will
bear a crop of late tomatoes. Some
will get ripe before frost. Then take
all green one that are grown or near
ly so. wrap them in paper and lay them
on a shelf. They will ripen. Ln this
way | have had ripe tomatoes on
Christmas day. | have treated mine so
two weeks ago, or a part of them, at
least. They are now blooming.
Work out your celery and begin to
earth slowly. Work your parsnips and
carrots and beets. Look after your
Irish potatoes. If they are on the
ground take up and put them in the
house till cold weather, then keep them
away for the winter. Look after your
small fruit vines or bushes and flowers.
Your COWS should be fed now with
plenty Of succulent food. and some
grain, too, or they will lose their flow
of milk.
That pork will be higher, goes with
out saying. SC push your hogs, vary
ing their food, using corn, peas and

As | have always had good success
in keeping sweet potatoes, | will give
methods Of putting away. | built a
small house, planking it up on the
outside with plain lumber; that is,
without tongues or grooves, and bank
ing the earth around the house to keep
the water out, ] put oak leaves in the
house TO put the potatoes on. We cover
the tubers all around and over with
leaves, but not until there is danger
Of the weather becoming too cold for
them without this, Until the approach
of very cold weather we spread over
them an old quilt or something sim
liar, using the leaves when it becomes
quite cold. South end of house is open
all the time. BY this method our po-
latoes are easily housed, they get thor
oughly dry, are handy to get at, and
are much sweeter and better than when
Kept in any otsar way. Have taken
them up in mud, and had them kept
perfectly.-Thomas l.. HinSon, Monroe,

HERE AND THERE.

Remember that If you do as well
as you al you have done all that you
ought to do. Do not worry about the
superior achievements of others.
The farmer having ordinary fore
sight should see that nothing could en-
nance the value CT his farm -.ore than
having groves of catalpa, black locust,
walnut or pecan trees.
"A dairy farmer should always as
far as possible breed and rear his own
heifers, paying the greatest attention
to selecting The calves from the best
butter producing cows.
-Missouri's fruit crop Is estimated
by Secretary Goodman to be: In the

Don't wait for the sun to shine in
your face before getting up to feed the
chicks. Feed early; as soon as sun

save some chicks from being trampled
to death by restless hens.

FILINGS AT THE FAIR.

You can nearly always convince a
woman, if you try not to.
A discussion must be carried pretty
far to move a woman.
A m usually tries to endear her
self, by making herself as costly as
possible.
Few men consider 1t worth while to
be jealous of their wives after they
have been married ten years.
A woman who has married for love is
generally willing to have her daughter
marry for all the modern comforts.
Unless a man wants to know from
whom every letter a woman gets Is it
is hard for her to feel sure he loves her.
A woman may never learn any thing
in a cooking school, but she can turn
up her nose at the ones who haven't
been.
