go SOUTH YOUNG
MAN. The CALL

Chicago, Dec. 1S.-From the far
north to the sunny south hundreds of
families will go before the winter
season closes. They will not 60 down
to escape the north country rigors
and enjoy the South's balmy breezes
and healthful sunshine and then re-
turn home. No, they will remain
south for all time. It will be their fu-
ture home.
The South, although represented by
only few states at the United States
Land and migration exposition now
on here, has probably done more to
the man seeking a place to live hap
PLY, prosperously than any other part
of the civilized country. The South
ern exhibits have attracted far more
attention than the stupendous exhib-
its Of some of the western states
which are aided by the great railroads
traversing the continent.
1t is a most apparent fact that the
rich western railroads are doing all
in their power to stem the tide of
home-seekers toward the south.
The southern state that will get
more new families within the next
few months-if facts as presented at
the big exposition count for ANYTHING
will be Mississippi Although the
state has small display it is most at
tractive and as a home-seeker from
Wisconsin was heard to remark at the
Mississippi booth yesterday:
mississippi appeals to me and in
that state shall make my future
home. The agricultural display of the
state is the best I've ever seen. There
are no frflls and fancies about the
Mississippi exhibit. It simply a 4
great, big honest fact.
1t is estimated that so families win
settle in Mississippi within the next
six months. They will come from
Canada, Michigan, Wisconsin and the
far northwest.

Reported sayings of Lees show

Of the born soldiers supposed lust

minds us that "at tn etime of his
great military glory Lee was not a
young man, and the fury Of hot
blood was tempered in him." and
adds:

intense delight when the musket
balls and grape were whistling over

The operation of budding must be
done carefully to succeed. Use very
sharp knife, cut out the bud with
shield of bark at least an inch
long and there should be a little
wood under the bud The incision
in the stock must be carefully made
that the cut bark is not bruised.
After this bud Is placed, the OPP

two weeks this string must be cut and
removed, but at the same time the up
per end the shield must be retied. The
upper end unites with stock slowly
and often loosens and rolls back. This
means failure, so that the second
tying is needed to get a good stand Of
buds. This work is done in July and
August always before the bark sticks

Transplanting young plants too

The cowpea, when mixed with corn
makes good silage, and we have very
little doubt that the mixture with KAT
fir corn would make an excellent crop.
Although sunfower seed is a good
feed, the crop is not extensively grown
probably because it is so hard to
harvest and the yield is not so great
as that of corn.

DISTINCT TYPES OF CABBAGE
Color, Character and Texture of
Leaf-All Are Hardy.

There are three distinct types of
cabbage with reference to the shape of
the head-namely. round. oval and fat
Some varieties are distinct in type,
while others partake of two or more
shapes due to crossing in seed produc-
ton. There is much variation in the
shape, color, character and texture Of
the leaf, ranging from regular straight
edges, almost white, smooth and ten
der, to irregular, almost fringed edges,
dark purple color and coarse, tough
texture.
Generally speaking, all varieties are
hardy, but there is some variation in
hardness Usually the purplish green
varieties with crinkled and fringed
leaves are harder than the whitish
green sorts with smooth, regular
leaves. The cold-resisting varieties
are also the most heat-resisting.

TIMOTHY AND RED TOP HAY
Grass Should BE cut for Market Be-
fore Seed Ripens-Exceilent for
All Young Stock.

Timothy should be cut for market
before the seed ripens. Farmers usu-
ally get their wheat hauled into the
barn before commencing to cut TIM
othy as the wheat is the more valu-
able crop, and should be hauled in be-
fore the grain is damaged by heavy
rains.
When timothy is fully ripe, a good
plan is to cut as soon as the dew Is
off in the morning, rake up in the aft
ernoon and rack and the next day haul
in or stack in the field With a full
force of hands this is the best and
cheapest way, the hay is cut, cured and
stacked before it becomes so dry as
to break in the handling of it. The
side delivery hay rake, the rake load
er and the hay fork in the hands Of
competent men make quick work. Red
top makes slow growth at first and
ripens the latter part of July. 1t is
well to have field of red top for win
ter feed. This grass thrives best upon
low damp meadow land. If plenty of
seed is sown, it will drive out almost
all weeds and grasses, and the land If
deep and rich will give heavy yield
of fine excellent hay, which all stock
are very fond.
The timothy and red top meadows
should not be pastured unless the Sec
ond growth is luxurant,
If possible the second growth clover
should be cut for seed, or for hay. The
second growth of clover will make
horses slobber in mid-winter, but the
hay is excellent for cows, sheep and
young stock.
