stronger so quickly we were soon feed

tities-test them frst-try only a little.
Every year new varieties I brought
out by the seedsmen and after a few
years we wonder where they have
gone. Simply disappeared-proved to
be inferior to other more stable ard
time-tried varieties and they have
dropped out of sight. On the other
hand, many of the new things are
really genuinely good. Every variety
that we esteem highly was new n
time, but we must be positive before
planting the new things extensively.
Then get a little seed of the new thing
and see what they will do. Every year
a small plot should be devoted to this
test work and the new things which
prove to be good can be planted more
largely another year and may often
help the planter to get ahead of his
neighbor Southern Cultivator.

system of Agriculture.

The three essentials are, first, theory
of; second, art of; third, practice of
agriculture.
All fertilizers placed upon the farm
will turn into cotton and corn in due
time.
Break land we'll before planting.
There is only so much cotton and
corn in fertilizers; the more you get
out the better.
Plow deep, cultivate shallow.
Apply from 400 to 600 pounds of
200 to 400 to corn.
Drain wet soils, terrace hill sides.
Plant late than not at all.
Plant long-staple cotton.
Keep out of debt
Produce big ears of corn and big
bales of cotton; both are easily gath
cred.
Save your money, buy everything for
cash, nothing on time.
Make all supplies at home.
Deep preparation, thorough fertiiiza-
ton, intensive cultivation.
Practice deep blowing, shallow cul-
tivation and high fertilization.
Advocate progressive methods.
Preserve and improve the land.
Study the principles Of agriculture.
1t is cheaper to make ten bales of
cotton on five acres than to make five
on twenty-five. tts
Use improved farm machinery.
