Unnoticed Resources.

A Northern mana compara-
lively new resident from the
enterprising State of Ohio-was
recently sitting in the editorial
office of The Sentinel and extol-
ling the climate, products, soil
and healthfulness of this locality.
He expressed his establishment at
the existing realities as Dame
Nature furnished them and the
impressions that existed in his
section over the nature of Louis
lana climate, land and people.
He was enthusiastic in extolling
the natural conditions of things,
aud the seeming indifference of
residents to their many advantages
and surroundings.
"Why," said he, waving his
hand towards the surrounding
area. eff a northern farmer had
ten acres of such land as this here
he would make an independent
living off of it. Such land as this
would be worth $50 an acre. 1t
is splendid for growing fruits.
berries, truck of all kinds and
grains sufficient to comfortably
support family. 1t only requires
the proper treatment, some fer
tilization and the application of
judicious industry to make it a
veritable gold mine."
He was eminently correct. The
application of proper cultivation,
the expenditure of little fore
thought, wise and practical meth.
dds will turn an apparently un.
productive spot of land into 6
cornucopis of abundance fol-
human needs. There are q few
drawbacks, little lack of favorable
aids of soil, climate and RAPID
growth IN this land, to furnish
man with supplies for his needs.
The real fault is the neglect te
make proper use of the oppor'
tunities and surrounding con
ditions as they really exist.

PLANTING METHODS
REvOLUTIONIzlNC
The Agriculturalists Carving
Out a way to Live In Ease
and Independence.

1t has been foreshadowed in
these columns heretofore, that
the agricultural methods IN this
section of the country would be
revoluionized, both as a necessity
and as matter of choice and in
the line of economy. This revo-
luton has been thoroughly
inaugurated. The opposition to
the methods of spectators in
manipulating the cotton crops,
which had been the chief product
of the South, the immense profits
derived from handling this staple,
the high prices of the necessaries
of life through the eXactions of
trusts and monopolies and the
tremendous drain on the resources
of the agricultnralists to furnish
necessary supplies, with other
combinations that deprived them
of any benefits from their arduOus
toll, have all combined to force
agricultural labor and methods
into new channels.
The all cotton idea as a neces-
sity, is being abandoned. The
man with the hoe is turning his
attention to those products that
will furnish home necessities,
reduce expenditures, supply more
ready cash and make HIM more
independent of all eXtraneous
assistance.
A recent trip into the country
strongly verified these conditions
and emphasized the fact that the
Southern farmers were rapidly
following the new departure in
farming methods and giving heed
to the lessons of past bitter
experiences.
Farming operations are well
advanced for the season. There
is much larger area being plant
ed I'M corn and other grains.
Gardens are receiving closer and
better attention. Truck farming
is being extended. More acres
are being devoted to the growth
of alfalfa. Hogs and stock of al
kinds are receiving better care
and closer supervision. Acre:
are being cultivated IN black-eyeC
peas, and kindred products
Fruit of every description i
receiving greater care and at
tention. Cotton is not so much
talked of or made the mair
object of cultivation.
There was found well-stOret
smokehouses, supplied with meat
lard and all those home prOdnct'
likely to save expense and suppl.
home needs, as the results of thu
more Thoughtful cultivators.
Everywhere there are evidences
of new departure in farming
operations, that will change tn,
whole tenor of agricultural pur
suits, build up and operate new
