Mr. Van Buren, said he and his
fellow county-men were successful in

Peaches grew then, as now, in
digenously-that is, the seedlings.
The trees sprung up everywhere.
They were hardy and produced enor-
nous crops. A very large number
of trees bore peaches that averaged
one pound or more: The fruit was
luscious beyond compare.
There has developed, during the
past three years, a noticeably deep
and wide-extended interest in the
superior value of certain varieties Of
corn and cotton, oats and wheat.
Through carefully conducted variety
tests of the seed of these bread and
money crops, the Experiment Sta
tions Of the several States, more es-
pecially the Georgia Station, have
materially assisted in directing at
tention to the practicability and the
profitableness of the production of
seed corn, seed oats, seed wheat and
cotton seed. Take, for example,
Marlboro prolific corn and Cleve-
lands Big Boil cotton-there is
money in both from the seed point
of view. There would be good money

your stock and the stalks (Shredded)

mules On the other side, you would
have the cotton itself. One hundred
acres, one-half in corn and One-half

from year to year, a handsome in
come This suggestion cOntemplates,
of course, close personal attention to
each crop, especially in the matter
of seed for planting for each success

be true to line, but there would
necessarily be requirement for
steady Improvement in the seed,
both corn and cotton.
Gradually, the acreage could be
increased but never beyond the per-
sonal inspection and control of the
owner, whose name and record for
reliability and fair dealing would fix
the value of the seed corn and the
cotton seed he produced and put up
on the market each year.
What is said of corn and cotton is
equally applicable to seed oats and
seed wheat; or there is a growing
demand for both.
You would be surprised to know
how wide is the margin for profit in
seed rye. Sown on thoroughly pre-
pared ground in middle September
or, if the summer fingers, middle
October large crop can be made.
There is annually an increasing de-
mand for Georgia seed rye. The seed
command a good price. A mixture
of 1926 pounds of Is per cent. acid

soda and $50 pounds Of muriate of
potash will meet the requirements of
the plant. Apply at the rate of 500

BY Martin v. Calvin.

A recent press special, sent out
from Washington City, carried in
formation to the effect that the Gov
eminent, having purchased a large
tract of woodland in Virginia, pur-
poses to stock it with Georgia goats
with view, by hybridization, to
turn out a goodly number of first
class mich goats.
One who would take the trouble
to ascertain the number of goats in
the various countries of the world
would be surprised to find that there
are very few in the United States.
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1910-08-25

That is attributable to the fact that
we have never appreciated the econo-
mic value Of goats; more particular
ly, the value of distinctively mich
goats.
Texas, has had excellent success with
Swiss Maltese goats. He has a herd
of mich goats many individual men,
bers Of which give more milk a day
than the average country COW. Not
the cow that is left to shift for her
self, but the COW which is supposed
to receive fairly good attention.
That breed of goats is easily kept.
1t is prolific. The milk of the SWISS
Maltese is very rich-a teaspoonful
being equal for table use to cup of
cows milk of the better sort.
A German friend and neighbor of
mine has an omnium gatherum Of
goats He feeds them at nightfall a
ration cotton seed or cotton meal
and good hay. All day, they roam
the woodland next his farm in search
of provender. The entire herd is in
uniformly good order. He receives
and fills many orders for kids at re-
munerative figures. He butchers
many to order. Beautifully dressed,
the carcass cannot be distinguished
from that of a lamb The meat is as
tender and as juicy as that of
mountain lamb.
A day or two ago, l suggested to
my friend that he should purchase
of Mr.. Van Raub, of San Antonio,
Swiss ram, and thus improve his
herd. Should he do this, he will put
more money than usual in his pocket
and be of special service to his neigh
bors
This morning, in looking through
an old government report, I found
letter, written in 1851 by Mr.. J. Van
Buren,, of Habersham county. He
was reciting facts illustrative of the
possibilities of that county along
agricultural lines. He mentioned
the prevailing practice in that county
and section of preparing for a corn
crop by blowing deep. Even at that
date, the farmers of Habersham and
of the neighboring counties had aban-
doned killing corn. He declares that
the farmers were making progress
in raising horses and mules. Expe-
rience had proved that the cost of

FIND PIRATES TREASURE.
Workers on Site of Ruined Spanish
Castle Make Discovery.

Lisbon, March 26.-An interesting dis
cOvery OF buried treasure. concealed by
buccaneers during the eighteenth century,
IS reported from Colmenar. A workman
who was digging on the site of a ruined
castle near the town unearthed a number
Of Spanish gold and silver coins. He re-
ported his discovery 10 his employer. and
a systematic search was made in the
castle ruins
After laying bare the foundations of
the castle. which date from the time Of
the Moorish occupation. the explorers IN
covered a dungeon which had been care
fully sealed by the buccaneers. In this
apartment. the walls of which were OF
extraordinary thickness, were two rusted
iron chests filled with treasure.
The contents of the chests were care
fully examined by experts. who believe
that they form part OF the booty obtained
from ships captured more than $50 years
ago. Old Spanish and Portuguese money
formed the bulk of the treasure, but
many gold and silver ornaments. includ-
ing vases. jewelry, and ecclesiastical
plate. were also contained in the chests.
The discovery has caused great excite
ment throughout the district. The exca-
vations continue under government su-
pervisiOn.
