Until Southern farmers grow leg
umes, feed stock, save the manure, and
keep their lands covered during the
Winted, they must expect to sell their
crops as soon as they are made tor
whatever they will bring, simply be-
cause they are too poor to hold them
for profitable prices. With proper
methods the man who must depend on
a crop that is yet unmade tor the
credit necessary to furnish him a llV-
ing would be rare exceptions IN the
South. AS Professor Massey ana
other writer's have often said. with a
proper system of rotation, enough live
to consume the cOttOn-seed meal
and the forage produced on the farm,
and decent care for the land, we could
raise cotton for a thousand years ana
have our soils constantly increasing
in fertility. -
If you are tired of feeling yourself
at the mercy Of the cotton
or the Tobacco Trust, of having to sell
YOUR crop for less than it cost to make
it. of struggling each year to make
at this beginning of another crop
season to make a change?
Plant cow peas or SOY beans, get
some hogs of improved breeding ana
raise YOUR own meat, save all the
manure YOU can, next tall SOW cover
crops: begin, in fact to improve your
soil so that you can place your DC
pendence for a crop and a living IN
if and not in the few tons Of 1ertll-
izer which you must buy on credit.

Method of Rose Grating.

TT. Lillienthal, of Berkeley, Cal, mas
very recently discovered a new way
of saving young roses from mlldeN'

The dog rose having hard, glossy
leaves. able to resist the attack OF the
mildew, protects it's little proteSes ana
lends to them some OF It's own naiui,
ness. This discovery is CONSIDERED
one of the most important OF recent
years to horticulturists

Entirely Too One-Sided.

We have asked several merchants
in Sanford if there was a store in
town that bought country produce
and paid cash for it and they all told
US there was not. We have talked
with a number Of farmers in the
county ana asked them if they could
get the cash for their produce when
they took II to town and they an
sWered no. This is why the business
of exchange is too one-sided.
The mercantile drummers run in
here for a few hour only, and sell
them, corn. hay, meat butter, etc.
me merchants expect to pay nothing
but the ash for them. The farmer
comes III with a wagon oad of brand
new first class country produce. the
product OF the fertile soil of his own
county, and he is bluntly refused the
money for his produce, the fruits Of
his own labors.
me farmer is a regular customer
OF his home merchants, = he remains
IN the enighborhood, he pays his
taxes to educate his w and his
~helghoors children, to build good
roads to put up public buildings, etc,
and is refused the money for what
he has for sale. Do you believe that
We are exaggerating? Let us see.
one day last week a farmers wife
came into town with three pounds
or 1lrSt class, rich, yellow. creamy
butter, and later reported that she
went to nearly every grocery store
in town and could not sell a pound
of it for twenty-five cents, while on
the other hand if she had turned
around and bought a pound Of butter
In the store she would have had to
pay thIrty-flVe or forty cents for
butter not half as good as her own,
and it from another State at that.
Then would you say that this thing
Is not too one-sided ?-Lee County

GARDEN WORKING NOTES.

The woman who finds garden work
too exhaustive may transform it into
a healthful exercise b! giving t her
time in the early morning or twilight
hours.
A small box of convenient height
makes a comfortable seat and may be
readily moved from place to place. 1t
saves tired knees.
The scent cotton gloves used by
many make a cheap and effective pro-
lection for the hands, more comforta-
bic and more quickly adjusted than
those which fit.
The hoe is a better tool in dry
weather than the hose. Cabbage, on

scarcely have the soil 800 rich. \ rich.

Only Basis for SucctH>1uI FafIhhS.

Progressive Farmer.
Every day We get letters asking
for a fertilizer m for cotton or
corn or tobacco or potatoes or some
other crop. Sometimes the inquire
tells us that his land is red or gray
or black, sandy OR swampy; some
times he does not even mention the
sail. as if it were a matter OF no
importance. Thousands OF farmers
seem to DEPEND on the fertilizer bag,
instead of on the soil, to make their
crops.
Now we are always ready and glad
to answer any farming questions; and
with our staff authorities to whom
we car refer such questions we are
able to give the most practically and
what fertilizer is needed on a soil
which he has never seen and OF winch
he has only the most general knoWl-
EIDE.
That is our first text, and our sec
ond is closely related to it. The first
essential of good farming is the up
building of the soil, and n system
of farming which depends on pur-
chased fertilizers rather than on the
fertility of the land is bound to keep
the m poor.

izers, but only when they are intel
ligently used. And the man who
thinks he, needs nothing except SO

Timely Information on Corn Culture.

Mr.. T, j. w. Broom. agent of the
Farmers Co-operative Demonstra-
ton work in Union county reports
that the people are cooperating en-
who Followed the new methods last
year Only on small patches, are this
year applying them to the whole
farm. some timely points on corn
culture have been sent out just at
this tin74. and run somewhat as fol-
lows:
Corn J. one Of the crops thai re-
Quires q good deal of moitsure. Every
stalk o. average size will need three
hundred pounds of water to make a
good weld. This amount scarcely
ever falls during the growing season,
hence We must keep in the soil the
winter rains for the use of the corn
at any time that it may need it. It
Is a well Known fact that a corn crop
Is ruined by a drought. But if the
land was broken early and deeply so
that it caught the winter rains. and
then II by proper cultivation the mOis-
ture Is kept in the soil, a good corn
crop can be made in spit of a drought.
one Of the main objects of cultivation
from now on, therefore,, will be to Gull
tlVate shallow and frequently to con-
serve the moisture which is lost main
~ by eVaporating into the air. If the
soil is kept loose on top, evaporation
Is checked. Hence, a waeder, or other
light harrow or c~ultiVator should be
run over the soil every week or ten
days until the corn is too large. This
loose dirt on top acts like a blanket
would on a wet horse. 1t keeps the
moisture there by preventing the
winds from carrying it off. Moisture
is always found under a plank or other
covering on the ground. The loose
soil on top in the field acts in the
same way in retaining moisture.
After the first or second cultiva-
ton and after the corn is six to eight
inches high, all blowing shout be
shallow. A turn pillow, a long scooter
Gopher or other deep running I'M
pIenent is not the best thing to cul-
tivate corn with after the roots get
out into the soil. Any deep blowing
after this breaks the roots, thus cut
tlng off the power of the corn to get

Crops for Trees.

of some experiments made IN lIlcliSdH
