For Cotton Select Prolific Stalks.

In selecting cotton seed we should in North Carolina, have especial re- gard to earliness. An extra large boil is usually an indication of late ma turing cotton, and is apt to be long jointed We need in this climate a bushy, short-jointed cotton of a pro- life character, and we should have marked the plants that come nearest to -idilsl cation -n2ant before any picking has been done, always select ing from plants of the best habit and those that open earliest, selecting only the first picking for seed The later pickings may make just as good and prolific plants, but the chances are that in the matter of earliness the seed from the first picking will be
 best.
 Do not take this cotton to the gin, but have little hand gin at home to prevent getting the seed mixed with every one else's cotton. Then next spring plant patch especially for seed and continue the selection. Make a careful selection the first time even if you only get seed enough to plant the seed patch. Every season you will get closer to the ideal cotton plant, and every season your neighbors will be taking more and more interest in your cotton. Cotton is a plant that responds to careful seed selection very quickly, and on the other hand runs back very quickly when carelessly se- lected. The King Cotton for a year or so was a very uniform cotton, but of late it is hard to find a field of King Cotton that is at all of the orig inal strain.
 The time to begin the improvement of ones corn or cotton is in the spring, and then study the crop all through the season, detassel all in ferior and barren stalks of corn, and thin out the long-legged cotton be- fore 1t has chance to distribute it's pollen through the agency the bees.

In an office in the Wall street dis trict the following notice has hung in a conspicuous place for several weeks. It is written in English, German and French, under the headlines, Warn ing" "Habet Acht," and "Avertisse- ment:" Do you contemplate renting an apartment-a flat? If so, be warn ed, and look at the place at night after you have determined to rent it. Do not look-you did that in the daytime-but listen. Listen for the sound of the pump. If you hear it don't take the flat, because you will regret it. The pump will destroy your peace, it will get on your nerves. it will rob your home of all attractions and life will be burden If your prospective landlord has told you the price of ice, listen for the ice ma chine music. Take heed! Be warned!! Listen! !"-New York Tribune.

The Farm Needs Sheen.

A farmer who has long been keep ing sheep and has observed their hab- it's of feedino says:
 'Sheep are oftentimes spoken of as a nuisance by some people, but wise land owners give them credit as being great renovators of rundown and worn out farms and even call thief fertility conservers
 "They are the latter, and more, too The life and habits of sheep make them not only conservers of fertility, but distributors of it where most need ed, if given an opportunity. Though sheep are averse to water and always seek an elevation for their resting place, they do like the succulent growth, even though it be weeds, found in the lowland of field or pas ture which has been enriched by wash ings from the higher surrounding land
 'These two peculiarities of sheep once came under very particular ob servation. When I turned some sheep into clover field they at once sought out the spots where the clover did not catch and eagerly devoured any weeds or pigeon grass that had taken pos session of the spaces. They then sought the weeds and succulent grass in the low places and runs in the fields, leaving the clover on the high land, where most needed to enrich the soil, untouched, only touching this grass when practically everything else had been eaten.
 More than this, when night came the sheep sought the higher portions of the field for their resting place and their droppings there deposited the fartility gathered during the day from the lower land, thus conveying back what had been washed away through the process of nature and cultivation A farm upon which sheep are kept ought to be not only fertile, but also evenly fertile.

Hints About Making Good Hay.

Haymaking claims the attention of farmers just now and should be pushed with all possible vigor. The high prices that have prevailed should stimulate hay making.
 Crab grass is allowed to go to waste that could be made into a fine quality of hay if cut at the right time and properly cured. Comparatively few of our farmers cut crab grass as early as it should be cut to make the best quality of hay. It should not be allowed to stand until the seed are ripe, nor should 1t be allowed to lie in the sun after it is cut until it is sun-killed before cooking or stacking. Cut when the seed are in the milk or dough state, permitted to take the sun a day, then cooked and cured in the cock, it makes a hay about equal to timothy hay.

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER.
The Power to Get the Most Out Of
 Farm With Least Energy.

The farmer may not crave pOlltlcal or social power, but if he is man of ordinary ambitions he craves the power to succeed in his business. It takes power to succeed at farming. It used to be said that when a boy wasn't good for anything else that he'd make a farmer Tt takes brains to be a merchant, doctor or preacher, but farmer-why anybody can farm!' But times have changed, and farming successfully on high priced land is no snap. The brains necessary to well manage a farm would make for sue cess anywhere after sufficient eXperi- ence were gained to "know the rope.'
 But it Is astonishing that so many farmers are content to go along in such reckless and unproftable way. They never have a definite knowledge of their business operations. They know not whether it is the COWS or pigs that are carrying the mortgage, whether it is the sheep or the chick ems or the cornfield that is failing to pay expenses. They feed timothy hay because they have it, and they have it because it is easier to cure than clover, and know not that there Is a better feed than timothy and a better crop for the soil.
 The shackles of ignorance is hold ing many man down. Knowledge is the power that can set free. It isn't enough to know how to hold a blow straight. He must know why he blows, when best to blow, how best to do for a particular crop or season. It is not enough that he know how to milk COW. He must know how to feed her so she will do her best, and he must know how to breed her so she will perpetuate better race than her own, he must know whether she is worth keeping at all or not
 It isn't enough to know how many pecks to SOW of grain, but how to combat the fungous and insect pests that lessen the yield. He must know what one of a great many varieties of these grains is best adapted to his farm.
 Knowledge is power-the power to least expenditure of vital energy, the least waste, and the greatest net pro- fits per acre e-Successful Farming.

OPPOSED TO LOCAL PROGRESS.
Journals That Help to Concentrate
 Business in Large Cities.

There are thousands of so-called ag- ricultural papers published in the United States, all of more Or less merit Yet few are all that they should be. There is an inconsistency about them that invites careful study. While they are supposed to represent the best interests of the great class of workers whom they gain support from in the way of subscriptions, the ma jority of them apparently work against the progress of farming communities by becoming the mediums, part of the machinery, which draws from country towns the support which they should have.
 It is to be regretted that many of these so-caled agricultural papers are merely published for the purpose of circulating the advertisements of con- cerns which seek to secure trade from residents of farming districts to the detriment of the home towns. These establishments take money from the rural communities to the large fnan- cial centers. The thoughtful man or woman can see how injurious it is to the interests of the farmers to take away the surplus earnings which represent the wealth of the commu- nity. It requires but little observa- tion and study to understand that to a great extent farm values are de- pendent upon the importance of the nearby town, and that any system that takes away it's business, will re- suit in a decrease of farm values. Such papers as advise the farmers to patronize other than home institutions and which advocate systems that are opposed to the up-building of indus tries in agricultural districts are not worthy of support.
