The Drowned.Out Cotton Land.

The question as TO the best disposi-
tion to be made of the many acres of
drowned-out cotton land is pressing
one, and farmers have little time left
in which to find the answer.
The present deplorable condition of
the crops over large area of the state
is not altogether result of bad wealth
er, as many seem to think, but is, to
large extent, the inevitable result of
the unprepared condition of the soil
when the crops were planted. This sea-
son and the condition ef crops should
teach a lesson that will never be forgot

and energy well spent to thoroughly
prepare the land before planting. The

both cotton and corn practically, free Of

produce little but fodder. These lands
are so grassy they look more like a
good pasture than cotton field. The
explanation of the difference in the con-
dition of the crop is very apparent TO
the close observer. In one case, the land
was we'll broken in the fall and rebedded
in the spring, and narrowed until all
clods were pulverized. In the other case
the land was not touched in the fall,
and in the spring rush to plan early, the
land was half-prepared, in many cases
with little one-horse plow.v After all
the rain we have had, this land is still
rough and cloddy, and would not have
produced over half crop had weather
conditions been favorable. How long
will we of the South continue this slip
shod method of farming, and charge all
the failures to bad luck and bad wealth
err One of the great obstacles in the
way of successful farming is the failure
to plan ahead Note the wild scramble
each spring for good seed. We did not
think last fall at gathering time, when
1t would have been so easy to have se-
lected good seed of known purity, that
we would need them this spring.
Now, what are we going to do with
this drowned-out cotton land? Will it
be economical to pay big wages to clean
out the little sickly cotton on half pre-
pared land, or to work out that dwarfed,
yellow corn that will make nothing
much but fodder? Would it not pay bet
ter to break this land with a two-horse
plew and turn under and kin the grass,
harrow well and plant cowpeas in rows
of three feet apart, cultivate the peas
about twice with a fine-tooth cultivator
or side harrow, and gather from ten
to fifteen bushels of peas per acre, which
will be worth next spring from $150 to
$2.o0 per bushel, and at the same time
the vines and roots will put into the
soil for next years crop from $500 to
$1,000 worth Of plant food per acre? To
plant, cultivate and harvest the pea crop
will cost very little. One bushel-of peas,
If good planter is used, will plant
about four acres. On the best of this
drowned-out land, early maturing yarie-
ties of corn may be planted. Mexican
June or Leaning Yellow will mature If
planted now ON well prepared land and
worked rapidly. Soy beans may be
planted, Just as cowpeas are, as late as
the middle Of July This plant, when
planted thick, makes an excellent hay,

or twice will yield from fifteen to twen.
ty-five bushels of beans per acre. II

well as supplying the wants Of those
desiring to buy. The bad condition Of
the crops will stimulate the planting Of
larger quantities of peas than would
have been placed in the ground other

$1.4O, but may be stimulated little by
the late demand.

A healthy trucking association has
been organized at Lucedale, in Greene
county, and horticulture will be given
fair trial there next year. A letter from
Mr.. Bolton, of the NJ, ]. & K. G. rail-
road, states that the people are very
much alive as to the advantages of di-
versifcation in that section, and will
plant a considerable acreage in vege-
tables next year. There is no apparent
reason why the venture should not sue
ceed if experienced people are to be had
to supervise the growing, packing and
shipping Of the crop. Trucking is q good
business if properly handled, and every
community engaging in it should go slow
and be careful to secure the services OF
men who know the business to instruct
them.

awkwardness of what occurred. ln- stead of the men being ordered to parade rest or move their carbines to some position in their left hands. as the president approached each one he had to salute with his left hand. then hastily clutch his weapon in the left hand, shake with his right and bring the gun back to his shoulder again.
 Another incident of the same oc- casion that the colonel remembers was related to him on the trip back to Phoenix by Captain Hancock. General Sherman stood at the other end of the presidents car. or the next one to it. Captain Hancock having been something of a military officer himself was really as pleased to see Sherman as he was the presi- dent and walking back to him en- gagged him in conversation. Gen eral Sherman after surveying the landscape from the platform moved down on one of the steps and look ing away in the direction of Phoe- nix. soliloquized audibly. What a hell of a country" The captain told him of this beautiful valley but the generals face indicated that the captains remarks were making no impression on him.
 AS Colonel McClintock remembers it, the occasion of the soldiers be- ing there was that there had been conference planned between the president and some of the Pima and Maricopa chiefs. concerning matters that were then on the minds of the Indians. Just what the issues were he does not remember but thinks the Pimas desired to ask for some arrangement for the issuing of ra- tions to the tribesmen while the Maricopas sought to enlist in the army to fight their old time enemies the Apaches. Captain Hancock was very timely for such a conference Also. as he had during and after the civil war commanded a body of the river Indians in various excursions against the Apaches

600 to Mrs. Rice were found on the
books. OF this all but $4,000 had been
paid back. Some of the collateral was
in individual notes given Mrs. Rice by
her clients. These consisted OF about
100 notes signed by railroadmen who
had borrowed from her on salaries
These notes were put in the hands OF
Frank J. King. collector of the bank,
to be negotiated. In the list was the
$50 note signed by Lovelace. The rail-
road employe repudiated it. He said he
had borrowed money from the c. B.

back the amount Lovelace admitted
that he had neglected to obtain the old
note.

forgery is false and asserts that she

caused Mrs. Rice's arrest, Brown went
