Immedia tely the alarm was given.

PRACTICAL ADVICE ABOUT
DIVERSIFIED FARMING


for the other. Cultivation will give
thrift to either and upthrift without
1t. To produce a good crop of corn,
break the ground eight inches deep
and p%ulverize a fine seed bed. In
c~ultivating the orchard We break
three inches deep only, on account Of
roots, and MAKE the game finely pull
verified surface.
This bed contains moisture to the
very surface in a dry season. By this
kind of preparation, and a fine, level
cultivation, we maintain moisture to
the tree tops during u drought, and
consequently thrift of trees and large,
smooth apples, fit. Indeed, for any
market. A hill OF corn half culti-
waited produces small ears Of corn.
An apple tree cultivated, set in pas
ture, for the same reason, produces
fruit hardly fit for worms. The down

Spring Greens.

I have never before been so much
impressed with the Importance of
spring green's. We have usually
looked upon the dandelion as a weed
pest, and ii a measure cespised it.
For a year or two, however. We have
made use of the wild plants as we
found them in abundance in the
orchards, fields and gardens, and in
waste places.
If we can find plants that are nicely
blanched, three or four inches from
the DOT crown up, at the time when
the buds just begin to show. we have
in them a most excellent material for
green's or salads. Finally have
come to the realization of the fact
that the dandelion is about tie ear
Hest, best and most dependable of
any Of Qur spring green's, and we'll
worth planting in the garden. 1t has
great medicinal virtues. It~2cts pow
erfully, and is one of our best spring
tonics, aud one of the most whole
some dishes we can put on the table
at any time of the year. Spinach is
good, but not nearly so hardy, nor
nearly so stimulating and wholesome,
aid no. nearly so easily grown. We
can get 4 mess o. dandelions much
earlier in spring than our spinach will
be fit for use. Seedsmen offer various
large leaved varieties. 1 am planting
several kinds of them now, butt have
" found great differences in them
except in shape and size of the leaf.
Seed may be sown an" time in
spring or summer. make the rows
foot apart, and SOW seed thinly, cover
ing lightly. Thin the plants to stand
six to twelve inches apart. In good
soil they will make a big growth,
and early the following spring cover
the entire patch with a mass of green.
On the whole, I believe the dandelion
for spring greens is a crop valuable
enough for more general c~ultivationa

LET'S CUT IT OUT.

Why is it that when a superb of
fee building is erected In Atlanta, or.
a magnificent tourist hotel In Florida,
that we speak of it as stthe finest IN
the South?
There are colleges and universities
in the Southern States with money
enough behind them and brains
enough inside of them to make them
equal to the best, but when a South
ern gets rich enough she sends
her sons to Harvard or Yale, because,
well, why? We heard it said the 9TH
sr day that a certain UNCONVENTIONAL
college in North Carolina has the
highest standard of all the colleges
south of Mason and Dixon's line.
Did anybody ever hear anything
spoken Of as the best "north of
Mason and Dixon's line"
This ingrown belief In our own
limitations is a "curse and a mare !"
Let's cut the habit out of our speech
and our thought, and when we have
anything good or grand call it at least
the best in the land"
