The progressive farmer and southern farm gazette. (Starkville, Miss.) 1910-1920, 1910-07-09

Messrs. Editors: 1t would seem
to me that there was never a bet
ter outlook for the pure-bred hog
in the South than at present, and
with hogs selling for $1,000 on the
hoof in Chicago. II would seem high
time that the Southern farmer
should decide to have his meat house
on his own farm. especially when
he can raise his own pork at one
third the price he is now paying for
1t, by getting improved stock and
raising grazing crops as much as pos
sible. Crimson clover and rye for
winter pasture. followed by rape.

with clover sod and other grass at
other times-with these crops and a
little corn. he should be able to raise
hogs as cheaply as they can be rails
ed anywhere.
The pure-bred hog Is the best for
general use and the most profitable

(Answer by Prof. w. +. Massey
On so small place do not think
that you can afford to depend on pas
ture. Grazing belongs to large areas.
But you can make small place
profitable by running a dairy and
having at all time plenty OF green
forage to cut and feed to cows in
the stable, and can in this way make
great deal of manure and improve
your farm rapidly. / would suppose
that you would have good market
for good butter as there is always a
scarcity of good butter in the South
ern towns. Your climate will give
you a great advantage for this sort
OF work.
AS cotton willis on your land, there
is no money for you in cotton, and i
would devote the place to the pro-
duction OF forage and green feed.
You can grow some corn, OF course,

hair, may always be checked and If the
hair folIicles are not atrophied the hair
may be induced ;again4to grow.

No Right to Waste the Land.

No man has any moral right to
control or work land that does not
produce fair crop. To make each
acre produce a full crop is not only
duty each farmer owes to himself,
but he also owes it to society, to
his country, and to his neighbors,
to- make each,acre produce Its full
share of the food and clothing for
the race. The so-called owner" of
the land is only long-term tenant
at the BEST and no tenant has a
right to leave the, land in worse con
dition than he found it. nor has he
any right to cucumber it with shift
less methods of poor farming and
keep better farmers from making it
Weld its most bountiful harvest.
And don't forget that to make good
l9lo'crops, preparatory work must
begin. at once. Raleigh IN. o.

An Attractive Feature.

Twice each week, Thursdays and
Sundays, The State contains a
special department entitled, What
Women Wish to Know" and while
it was inaugurated chiefly for the
edifcation and delectation of wo-
men the men also find much genuine
pleasure threading the original and
sometimes very unique replies to
the questions propounded. You
will b. highly entertained by read.
ing What; Women Wish to Know,
in The State twice each week. The
following is a specimen of the ques-
tions and answers:
To the Editor of the Woman's De
partment:
What is the best thing to keep a
woman young? Miss Anxiety.
There is no surer way to frighten
away youth than to become anxious
to keep it, to chase" it, as it were.
Don't you know that all things flee
when you pursue them? think it
is in one of Kipling's jungle stories
in describing the weird dance OF
the elephants at midnight in the
deep forests, he makes reference to
the old maid elephants" with their
thin anxious faces. Some women
make themselves old by trying SO
hard to keep young. And, after all
if you are more comfortable just
growing old naturally and grace,
fully, why, just give up to the in,
evitable and be happy. I'm sure
this is much nicer than struggling
SO obviously, and running the risk
of being defeated.
But, this isn't telling you how to
keep young. There are two things
necessary, enthusiasm and sleep, and
principally sleep, for then you will
have the enthusiasm. Also, take
the line of least resistance, as much
as possible. Resistance and wrink-
les are usually found together. OF
course this does not necessarily
mean that you must be '''namby-
pamby;;" but don't contend"

Buy Seed Corn in the Ear.

There is only one way that the
purchaser can be certain of getting
good seed corn, and that is to, pur-
chase from some one of reliability
as to the purity of the varies., and
then require that the corn lie sent
on the ear. Until the farmers of
our territory learn this one simple
lesson of requiring the seed corn
they buy sent to them on the ear,
there will always be complaints OF
failure to obtain satisfactory corn,
no matter how careful the adver-
tising managers of agricultural pa
pers may be in guarding them
against fraudulent vendors. Most
of the inferior seed corn is sent out
through ignorance of whatseed corn
should be-. This will be largely
corrected when all refuse to pur-
chase shelled seed corn, but in
variably require that it be sent
them on the ear.-Raleigh, IN. CO.
