FARM NOTES

Nuts are a staple food article that

to leave those hickory bushes on
that thin land Or those walnuts on
that strong land.
Angora goats generally live twice
as long as sheep. A healthy goat will
eat about $50 pounds of hay in one
winter, but will manage to get along
on reasonably good brush pasture
in summer without anything else.
A combination of fruit and bees is
fine. It makes good living for the
family, and good living for the man.

On almost every farm there are
places where little else will grow
but an apple tree or fruit tree Of
some Kind. The frugal man will put
it there.
Poultry houses should be built on
high, we'll drained ground, facing the
south, and should be we'll lighted,
frequently aired, and kept scrupu-
lously clean.
How would you like to have to milk
a COW for 365 days that gave an aver

If a man should come tramping into
your parlor, besmearing the rugs or
carpets with the mud, slime and filth
that had adhered to his boots as he
worked in the sewers or walked in
the wet cutters, there would be an
exceedingly lively protest and very
thorough cleaning after he had BEEN
ordered out or kicked out. A re-
sort to violent measures to get rid
of such an affront and menace would
be upheld by the courts and by pub
lie sentiment. And yet, remarks the
Newark News, just such nuisance,
only more impudent and dangerous.

does not stop at defil1ng rugs and

dirty feet anywhere, even upon the
victuals you eat.

A GOOD COUNTRY
FOR A POOR MAN

The star had an interesting chat
with Mr.. Robert II. Cleveland. who
spent tn" past three years 1T or near
Port Of Cort"z. Spanish Honduras,
railroads and planting banana groves.
Prior to the late residence Mr.. &. had
spent two Yeas in that country, II"
said tn" principal products of tina;
country were bananas, rice. coffee.
Iubcr and tobacco. Tn" banana in
dustIy WAS immense and growing
rapidly. The principal market WAS
the United States and four large
steamers were making weekly trip:
10 Mobile and New Orleans. Each
Vessel when loaded with bananas
loaded a train of from twenty-five
to thirty cars. The price per bunch
on the plantation is % cents. 1t takes
Il year from tn" time it is planted UNI
til it produces a bunch OF fruit and
from that time on bunch Il month

The ground. but come up smiling and
productive. Mr.. Cleveland said it was
II very fascinating industry, one that
permitted the owner of good sized
plantation to rest most of the year i'll
the shade. Land is Very fertile and
productive. There is really no such n
thing as farming as implied i'll this
country. For instance in the planting
of corn, a pointed stick is used to
make Il hole in the ground. several
seeds dropped in and fifty bushels is
the usual yield. To clear the ground
the rank growth of weeds and grass
is cut and when dried is burned, the
primitiv" way of planting proceeds
and good crops result. In the three
years Mr.. Cleveland spent there he
did not see a plOw. Labor is 81 a day
The value of their coin is half of ours.
He said it is also Il fine stock coun-
try and on the upland good cattle,
horses. mules and hogs are raised.
The city of Puerto COrtez is q hustl-
ing place of 5000 people. Every day
is Sunday in that country. The pop
ulatiOn is decidedly mixed and you
find them there from all parts of the
world and like all Spanish blooded
people it is constant chase after
chance and good time. Rum Is
made under government control, is a
good article and is worth IS a gallon.
All other liquors are imported. The
fare for this Otum cum dignitate land
is s25 from Mobile and $50 from New
Orleans. They receive mail every
two weeks from new Orleans. He
said American thrift and enterprise
is represented in the person of the
leading wholesale merchant, another
runs the hotel of the town, rates SIS

cessful negro banana growers used
to live in Florida and assisted in
building the old f.. G. & z. railroad
from River Junction to Pensacola.
His shipments of bananas average
SOmeN 200 bushels q week.

Mr.. VIM. f. McGahagin, of Lake

which he had delivered some time ago
to be hulled. SO he could plant them.
Speaking Of the velvet bean as food
product he said there was nothing
like it in the country and without it
did not know what the Florida far
mer would do. Speaking Of it's feed
ing and fattening properties he said
a volunteer crop in a ten-acre lot
had maintained several feed cows, all
fall. winter and spring. causing them
to give great quantities of milk of
rare richness. This same field fatten-
ed half dozen hogs and then Mr..
Rube Redding drove into the field
twenty odd head of cattle and made
them rolling fat for beef, and if It
had not been that the field was need
ed for summer crop the stray beans
lying around would have made more

bean WAS the main stay Of the stock
