12 Things To DO This Month.

l. Get the land ready for sta
pie crops. Don't stop with p!ow-
ing. but harrow and pharrow
until a perfectly pulverised seed
bed Is made. The hest paying
work is done before planting.
2 Get good seeds for planting
all crops, all crops. Don't de-
pend on just what you can pick
mp and don't wait till planting
time to buy or select.
B. Select, prepare and plant
special ''seed patches for your
seed corn another year,
4. Get the harrows and weed
ers out and begin using them.
The new H's-"Horsps and Har-
rows" will 90 tw.ce the work of
the old HIS" Hired hoe hands !"
5 Kepp the fire out the fields.
As DR., Knapp says: Use more
sense and less fire." The great
est need of our Southern soils
is humus, the most expensive
fertilizer is nitrogen; rotting
trash and grass supply both.
6 Keep thrgarden going Don't
forget that almost everything
from radishps to heans a n d
from lettuce to corn should be
planted this month.
7. Spray and prune and cult
vate your orchard, Don't turn
it over to the fungus diseases
and insect pests, even if it a little
late to start fighting them.
8. Arrange a series OF lots foI
hog pasturing. With Southern
pasturing crops we can make
pork more cheapIy than W esterr
farmers can, but we can't com
pete using corn alone.
8. Get busy in the poultry
yard. Don't haye chicks matched
with no provision made to tak'
care of them and don't put it of
until hot weather.
10. Give the work stock spe-
cial care. Don't allow them tt
get poor or have them suffer from
sore back and shoulders.
II. Screen the doors and win
dows, clean up the back yart
and about the barn, get rid O

Your correspondent had t b 9
pleasure OF taking q trim over
the route of the Lpnoir and Blow
ing Rock Turnpike last week
with Mr.. r. L Guynn, Sec. and
Treas. OF tue Co., and Mr.. j. w.
Whisnant in al automobile The
party left town at at at 2::20 o.
clock and made a trip of "a or
26 miles in q little more than 4
hours. As We went up the fl rs t
stop was made at Warrior noun
tain. At this point the new road
leaves the old road to the left
and takes q course along t h e
side of the mountain, where it is
dug out and filed in to get the
proper grade and the distance
is shortened several hundred
yards. with fewer curves. This
side of Warrior Gap the road
leaves the old road bed to the
right and skirts the mountain side
above the road several feet.
The width OF the new turnpike
will range from Is to "a feet and
the grade from here to Blowing
Rock is to be a four per cent. in
cline. In some places on the noun.
tain it will be necessary to dig
out and fill in from Is to 80 feet
to secure the grade, and the nv-
erage width will be not be les Z
than Is feet, aud in places it will
be made wider. Between Messich
4 Co.'S store and Patterson the
new road will take to the right
and at this point the line will bt
almost straight for a mile or so,
alongside the Yadkin river.
The scenery along the new pix
is grand. There are other roads
perhaps, where the scenery il
prettier, but not on this side o
the Blue Ridge.
i Work ON tile new road is pro-
crossing rapidly. just beyond
Warrior Gap is located the rocI
crusher. aud rock is being put OF

mountain it is necessary to bIas
their way, and the cost per mil
is estimated at 1000, VIII ic
mpans "a considerable outlay @
money to complete the road q

When this road is complete,
the time between Lenoir an

wing worth considering. IL vii
