Grain and Hay Farming vs.. An
ALL Cotton Farm.

We farmers Of Middle Georgia,
all know Frank Mcdaniel, of Rock
dale county, as a successful farmer,
a business man of unusually sound
Judgment and a citizen of character
above reproach. While attending
q Farmers Union rally, in Newton
county last week, we heard him
make talk in which he gave this
striking illustration Of his own ex-
perience. He said:
in 1894 | had negro family,
composed of man, three grown
boys and his wife, who was good
field hand, working for me. gave
them So acres of the.best land | had
to plant in cotton. and undertook
to cultivate 10 acres by myself, as
follows: 20 acres in grain and &c
acres in corn and peas. ! worked
with the negro and he was to re-
turn day for day labor with me.
At the end of the year he owed me
Z days work. Now, none of my
land was rich, and none of my
yields very large, but here is just
how the results stood in the fall, on
the 20 acres Sown in wheat | made
l55 bushels. sold $50 bushels for
$3.50 and saved the bushels for my
flour and sold some of that. then
sowed peas and from them sold e4oo
worth of hay. In the 90 acres Of
corn | also planted peas. From
these gathered and sold peas to
the amount of 1856. Then sold
$3.50 worth of corn, making 81 ,o5d
for my laber-the labor Of one mule
and 40 acres of land. The negro
and his family gathered IS bales
Of cotton; sold it for 10 l.2 cents,
which gave. him ss75 for cotton and
sos for seed, or a total of e77o for
the labor of four hands. /"
This narrative speaks for itself,
and needs no comment. These
facts are more eloquent than words.

Dear Sir:-As busy as a college
professor can possibly be with duties
incident to the opening exercises Of
a large college Of over five hundred
students, cannot resist the temp
tation to write at once and compli-
ment you on the splendid mammoth
Trade Edition of The Brandon
News. When it was received from
the office and opened, thought
surely there must be about sixteen
copies of the paper, and you can
imagine my surprise when found
only one-and that enlarged to un-
dreamed of proportions. For four
days at leisure moments have
been reading it, and have not fin
ished it yet.
: have been greatly interested in
every feature of the paper. From
its pages have learned more about
my native town and county than
from any other source. i really
did not know that hailed from such
a good place-a town of great war
experiences, distinguished lawyers.
excellent schools, solid banks, and
fine mineral waters.
The special issue is of great value
historically and educationally. In
point of arrangement, neatness, and
mechanical execution of the work,
nothing more could be desired. The
illustrations are remarkably clean
and well-chosen. Among the famil-
lar pictures, none transported me
back to the past and so wildly re-
called the happy scenes of boyhood
as that of the Graded School Build
ing. Here my school education
practically had its beginning. Would
that could pay fitting tribute to
that cultured and inspired teacher,
Miss Frank Johnson! believe no
more splendid biography Of her
could be penned than to say that,
like Mary of old, "She hath done
what she could"
Though far up in the mountains

hometown, and welcome every
item that The News brings to me
of their development and prosperity.
Abundant success to The Brandon

KAMEHAMEHA LINEUP

The fans of the Kamehameha
Schools, and that term includes all
of the boys and teachers OF that in-
stitution, are somewhat disappointed
in the caliber of the players who will
represent them on the diamond this
season, but the hope Is expressed that
the good practice the team will get
in actual service, may tend to over
come the poor coaching and practice
available on their own grounds. The
team to represent the Kams will very
probably be as follows:
l.. Kalimapehu, catcher; Leicester,
Lota, captain and pitcher; ID. Muir

base; w. Naeloe, shortstop; Adam

BIG PLANS FOR
BENCH SHOW HERE
To Entertain The Fleet
Club To Meet On
The 18th

The Hawaiian Kennel Club will
hold a meeting on the 2Sth, to ar
range for further work toward
bench show to be given while the
Fleet is in this city. Notices to dog
owners have been out some time, and
returns indicate that the show will
be an even greater success than the
first. Applications for bench room
have already come in from Oahu, Ha-
wall and Kauai, amounting to IS
dogs, though 1t is expected, from the
fact that a good number of dogs are
not entered yet, that the number 20
take part in the show will be very
much larger. One hundred and five
dogs were entered in the last show
and this number should be greatly
increased
This is the second show which the
club has given, and the second to he
held here. II is, of course, a part OF
the general entertainment being
planned for the Fleet.
Although 1t is the rule that dog
shows on the Coast do not thrive cX-
ccptlonaly well on their first appear
ance, the show here met with such
success as to warrant the belief, II
appears, expressed by the promote Is
of the present show that It will be Il
big event, and notable among the
sporting features while the Fleet Is
here.
Many of the entries arc not di-
yulged yet, but 1t is known that the
Kalihi keppcls will enter about six
dogs, and the Hilo kennels will have
perhaps as many, while a good nurl-
Der of private owners are applying
to have their pets in line for the
prizes when the time comes.
or the classes which will be
shown, II is expected that the collies
will be the most important, though
1t is certain that the dachshunds, air
dalcs, and foX-tcrriers will be wei
represented.
Cups and prizes will be up, though
II is not known just what they will
be yet.
The Kalihi kennels won many hor.
ors at the last show, and the fact
that It is largely entered would indi
cate that the best dogs in the Is;
ands will certainly be in the show.
