Cheap Pork Making.

Now is the time to plan for and
sow a succession of crops for the
hogs to gather this summer and fall.
Who can not make pork production
profitable with live hogs selling at
around seven cents per pound? If
there is one, it will be he who per-
sists in feeding corn exclusively and
keeping the hogs in a dry lot. Sor-
ghum, peas, sweet potatoes, chufas,
peanuts and rape-all of these may
be planted so as to furnish feed that
the hogs will gather themselves, and
afford a good growing ration from
July to the end of December. With
the addition of a little corn cheaper
pork can be made in this way than in.
any other. 1t is easier to secure 81
per bushel for corn fed along with
such feeds than fifty cents per bushel
when fed exclusively to hogs.-Pro-
gressive Farmer.

In reference to the heavy advances

Production of Peanuts.

Frequent mention has been made
in the Southern Field of consider
able areas of soil of Virginia,
North Carolina, Tennessee and
other Southern States, which are ad-
mirably adapted to the production of
peanuts. During the past two years
a distinct forward step has been TAX
en- in the matter of acquainting the
public with new uses to which this
nut may be- put in the line of food
products. 1t is a we'll known fact
previously stated in this publication
that of all known natural food pro-
ducts the peanut outranks in food
value every other, but owing to the
very limited areas on which it is
grown, it has been slow to take its
srightful position among the impor-
tant raw materials for manufacture.
Latterly, however, industries have
been established in various parts of
the country which manufacture food
products designed ~to~replace to some
extent the S of meat, and in these
products the peanut is employed as a
very important ingredient-the most
important, because it's constituent ele-
ments lend themselves as the most
satisfactory and available substitutes
for meat.

Southern Agricultural Topics.
Modern Methods That Are Helpful to
Farmer, Fruit Grower and Stockman.
Growing Sweet Potatoes.

I desire for the benefit of your
readers to give my plan for growing
sweet potatoes. First, select suitable
land for the crop, well drained and
well supplied with organic matter,
either with farm or some
legume crop. Potatoes grow well
after peas or alfalfa. This applies
mainly to very light lands, deficient
in organic matter.
Second, 1 fertilize as follows: Acid
phosphate, fourteen or sixteen per
cent, 200 pounds; cottonseed meal,
eco pounds, or nitrate of soda, 100;
muriate or sulphate potash, 100, or
kainit, 400. Use all on one acre, or
for very heavy yields, an increase of
fifty per cent. will pay. Potatoes
need an abundance of potash, espe-
cially on the light lands.
I have conducted experiments, and
by using 81 worth of manure instead
of $3.50 per acre, the increased yield
cost five cents per bushel. / prefer
rows three and one-half feet wide,
as this admits of level cultivation and
requires very little hoe work. which
is the most costly part of cultivation.
In my next 1 will give some of my
experiences in feeding sweet pota-
toes.-H. M. Johnson, Johnston

SPRING AND ITS DANGERS.
How to Meet and Overcome Them. A
Simple But Sure Treatment.

Early Spring, with its sudden and often
violent changes of temperature; with its
accompaniment of rain, dampness and fog;
with its depressing absence of life-giving
sunshine; it is not only in itself the most
treacherous and trying of seasons, but finds
the average person in the physical condi-
ton least fitted to resist and overcome the
influences at work. The rigors of Winter,
just passed, have, to most constitutions,
proved a heavy drain on the vital forces,
consuming that reserve of strength which
every one needs to meet successfully the
new trials which nature has provided. To
recruit this lessened strength, to reinforce
the weakened constitution, which the COM
ing heat of Summer will put to another Sc
we're test, should be the aim, as it is the
necessary course, of all who wish health
and energy.
To do this-to build up and restore the
wasted vitality-scientific research has pro-
vided a sure agent-Yager's S~arsaparilla
with Celery. Throughout the whole range
of tonics and restoratives, nothing has ever
been discovered so rich in vitalizing prop
critics, so potent in stimulating action, as
this famous preparation. Every Spring, in
thousands of homes, its use is considered
necessary to build up some member or
members of the family who lave fallen be-
low the established standards of health.
1t purifes the blood, corrects the nervous
system, induces restful sleep, creates appe-
tite, aids the digestive organs, makes
sound, healthy flesh and bright eyes; it
renovates and invigorates the entire body.
To all who need what is popularity known
as a "spring medicine"-though this is also
of incalculable benefit at all times-no more
helDful words can he SDoken than "YaQer'e

Peavine Hay as a Money Crop.

Peavine Hay as a Money Crop.
1 start out by saying 1 can make
ore money IN peavine hay than I
can on cotton, that is, counting ex-
penses.
In the summer of 1905 / turned
eight acres of wheat stubble that only
made twenty-eight bushels of wheat
with 200 pounds of guano per acre.
Then drilled in one bushel Of speckled
peas and 100 pounds of ~guano per
acre with a grain drill, then run
over the ground with a drag and
made it perfectly smooth. That year
1 cut and sold in bulk $109.80 worth
of hay off of the eight acres. Then
followed it in wheat again; made
ninety bushels; put in peas as before,
and made $175 worth on the same
ground.
I am very careful to kill all the
grass and weeds where sowing my
peas, so that the grass and peas will
not come up together and be ready to
cut at the same time.
I let at least three-fourths of the
pods get ripe before cutting. Do not

care for. I cut after the dew is off;
rake before night; leave in windrows
till the-next evening, then haul to the
barn or stack. I haul my hay to mar
ket from the Held, for which I get $40
per ton.
1 would advise our farmers to plant
less corn and cotton, prepare it better
and make more. Sow your thin land
in peas. Land that will not make
more than 500 or coo pounds seed
cotton with 200 pounds of guano
per acre, will make from one to one
and a half tons of peavine hay per
acre.
One man with a team can turn,
drill, cut and house one acre in two
days, with only a boy to help him
load.
I commenced sowing about the first
of May and continued until July 10;
SOW four or five acres every time it
rains, don't lose any time out of your
crop and your hay is not all ready
at the same time. / cut and fill my
barn, then sell the rest; by doing so
I have fat stock and a nice bank &C
count before / commence to sell cot
ton.
Sow sorghum or German millet on
rich or btotom land; pease will grow
too large "a stalk; it will be too hard
and woody; and stock won't eat it.
Peas in the South is as clover and
timothy in the North and West.
So let our farmers be about their
business; don't sit around the coun-
| try stores and whittle on goods boxes.
When it is too wet to work in your
| crop, SOW peas, and the mor peas the
| better for your land, stock, wife and
children. Don't fail to sow because
peas are hign-when they are high is
the time to have some to sell.-B. F.

Combating Cucumber Lice.

H-.F.a E=.&-E
This pest destroys many hundred.
acres of cucumbers and melons each
year Every grower of these vegeta-
bles should make a study of exter-
minating this insect, as it means the
success or failure of his entire crop.
There being a foundation for all
things to build on, so there is one
most important basis from which to
work in destroying cucumber lice.
I The grower should secure from a
reliable seed house his seed of the
best quality, seed that have been
grown under climatic conditions best
adapted to their fullest development,
the plants having been free from lice.
He will then secure a stand which is
healthy and more able to Withstand
the attacks of insects.
If the grower wishes to be on the
safe side, she should spray his entire
crop with kerosene emulsion before
the lice have appeared. Then spray
the second time in about ten days.
This will almost insure his crop
against these bugs.
Should the lice appear he should
go over his field and pull up each in
fected plant and burn it at once.
Then spray his entire field with kero-
sene emulsion, using a ~goose-neck
nozzle in order to reach the under
| side of the leaves. If this is done de-
1~iberately, the grower will soon rid
himself of this pest.
To make kerosene emulsion, take
| of good hard soap Tin fine shavings)
one4half pound; soft water, one gal
lon; kerosene, two gallons:
Dissolve soap in boiling water, add
the kerosene to the hot water, churn
the mixture with spraying pump un-
til it changes to a creamy, then to a
buttermilk moss color. This gives
three gallons of stxty-six per cent. OF
oil emulsion, which may be diluted
to the strength required. Add ten
and one-half gallons of soft water to
this amount to make fifteen per cent.
kerosene emulsion. This strength
will give the best results.
Kerosene emulsion has given the
best results of any extermiEatoI
known. In fact, it is the only sure
way for a cucumber or melon grower
to be successful if his crop is attacked
by these insects.-C. w. R., in South
ern Fruit Grower.

Care For Wounds.

If your horse picks up a nail in his
hoof tear away the horn until the
blood starts. Then wash it thorough
ly in a solution of biehloride of mer-
curry at the rate of one part to 500
parts of water. Never close up a
wound of this kind, but place absorb
ent cotton over it and then bandage
with a thick cloth coated with tar.
The essential thing is to keep out all
dirt and allow the wound to drain
