Holmes County as a Producer.

Holmes County is one of the smallest
but as a producer of agricultural prod
ucts 1t is one of the leargest.
The eleventh biennial report Of Com
missioner OF Agriculture, B. E. McLin,
has Just been issued and a copy has
been received at this office. 1t is a
most interesting compilation and will
prove a revelation to the careful read
er, and especially will 1t serve to cor
rect an impression that seems to be
general about good old Holmes" being
only small potato" as compared to
the other counties Of the state.
Holmes county contains only 4j5
square miles, or 40 square miles less
than any in Florida, yet, according to
the Commissioners report. is produced
198,800 bushels Of corn in 1909-10. or
more than all the counties of the state
reported, excepting nine, and exceeded
all the counties, save seven, in the
production of sweet potatoes. In thu
production of all field crops Holmes
County compares favorably with the
best, and If acreage is considered
Holmes County Is the banner aSricul-
tural county Of the state.
It will perhaps be of special interest
to the people Of the County to know
that in the production of velvet beans
Holmes County leads all of the coun-
ties of the state, her crop being valued
at $139, 626. The next highest county
is Hamilton. which produced $1,000
bushels valued at $105.560.
Recapitulated the amount Of prod
ucts grown in Holmes County in 1909
10, Is as follows:
Upland cotton, 3,oo5 bales; corn,
19S,S00 bushels; oats, 10,047 bushels;
sweet potatoes, 1880 bushels; syrup,
4,345 barrels; field peas. 5,67s bushels:
field pea hay, 140 tons; hay native
grasses, LIZA tons; peanuts, III, 231
bushels; velvet beans, 64,271 bushels;
velvet bean hay, IA tons.
Vegetables - Onions, 1896 crates;
lettuce, 1877 crates; celery. 452 crates;
pepper. 4s crates; Irish potatoes, 1900
bushels; cabbage, 1851 crates; toma-
toes, 4,167 crates; squashes, 3,449
crates; egg plants, ss5 crates; cucum-
bers, 3,44S crates; watermelons. 376
cars; cantaloupe, 1889 crates; English
peas, 537 crates; beets, 265 crates,
beans. 1o,072 crates.
There was 263,357 dozen of eggs
sold and used in Holmes County in
190s-10, and 1.131,605 gallons of milk
which was exceeded by only one other
county In the state. There was $3.50
pounds of butter sold and used, and
the busy little bees made Holmes
County stand third highest in the state
in honey production with 1894
pounds.
II this is not a good showing for
the smallest county in the state the
Advertiser would like to be shown
what is considered a good report. Any
way, we are mighty well pleased with
good old Holmes"-the garden spot.

productions Of the Shakespearean play.
Almost it required an effort to believe
that the three trees about the stage
had not been grown there for the ex
press purpose and those that are to
come this week.
1t was a perfect night in many ways
for an out-of-door presentation Of this
sort. In the calmness of the weather
the words of the players could be
heard as plainly by the audience as do
those in the average playhouse. The
COburn Players are to be held in /
large way responsible for this, how
ever. They are noted for their cleac
enunciation and the excellence of th'ir
diction. All this told under the clear
skies, within reach Of a city's streets.
Mrs. Coburn was a charming Rosa
lind. She was ingenious at all times,
in spite Of her studied conception Of
the part. Her husband as Orlando,
seemed to follow her in the audience =
esteem. The production given was
under the auspices of the department
of English of Columbia University, and
there appeared to be scores in the au-
dience who could have repeated the
lines of the play as we'll as any on tho:
stage. The cast was well balanced.
The production was perfectly re-
hearsed almost in It's details, and 1t
fulfilled the greater part of the prom
ises that were made for it. Tomor-

Last fall Mr.. ]. Mclaughlin, who is

acres, SO he thought, in clover. Bur
it turned out that through error in
the house that sold him seed he plant :

it been planted; for there are a few
punches of clover mixed with the al

eighteen inches high with roots from
three to five feet long
Mr.. Mclaughlin had no intention of
growing alfalfa and was almost ready

About 200 local young people and
children have been training daily Tor
this production of this play and If che
rehearsals are any indication of sue
cess, there is certainly a treat in store
for the people next Friday night in the
opera house. ---
This play has been produced over
one hundred times in America and the
press universally speaks of 1t as q
striking event, and a surprise to all.
In speaking of The Toys Awake" all
seem astonished that amateurs can be
trained to such a degree of proficiency
in so short a time. Much credit is
everywhere given to Miss Adams AMI
Prof. Ford for their success in this
work. The following letter is from a
northern city where the play was given
for the Childrens Aid Society:
Peterborough, Ont, 23rd JULY, 1902.
Mr.. Ford.
Dear Sir: The beautiful spectacular
children's play, The Toys Awake
produced under the auspices of the
ChiIdren's Aid Society of Peterborough.
under the direction of yourself and
Miss Bertha Adams, proved to be all
and more than we were led to expect
from the glowing accounts received by
us from other cities where IT had been
given. From the time the curtain Went
up until it's fall. the audience each
evening was treated to one of the most
beautiful, entertaining and delightful
performances and stage pictures ever
produced in this city. II has been /
source of great wonder to us how the
children could be trained to such
high grade of proficiency in such
short period Of scarcely three weeks.
1t will constantly afford me great
pleasure to remember the pleasant
business transactions with you and
Miss Adams, and 1 would recommend
the entertainment, under your man
agement to all societies and charitable
institutions.

Eczema and many other skin dis

Heat, Pimples, Itching Piles. Dandruff,
Ground Itch, Poison Oak, ETC., are
caused primarily by impoverished and
congested skin, which GENERATES

into ulcerous sores which become

Forage Crops for Hogs.

Forage Crops for Hogs.
The quick and easy income usually
yielded by hogs prompts wasteful
methods Of management Hogs are
not always profitable, and when prices
for fat stock are low compared with
feed, it is the wasteful feeded who suf-
fers most. Those who have raised
their pigs cheaply frequently find that
they have made a profit on the opera
ton taken as a whole, even when they
have been forced to fatten AGENT hogs
on 50-cent corn.
Pasture Of some kind is essential
for hogs 1t pays to provide fresh
grazing throughout the growing sea-
son. Health and thrift as we'll az
economy Of grains depend upon IL.
The pig raised on a diet including an
abundance Of toothsome, succulent
feed natures large frame at an early
age, with large vigorous digestive or
gans, and the ability to put on fat
repidly and cheaply at the last. If the
green feed can be continued along
with torn until the hog is ready for
market the gains will be more econ
omical than can be made in a dry lot
on grain alone.
Many a corn-belt renter has been
kept from raising hogs because he
had no permanent pasture to spare for
them. Such an obstacle is not so Sc
| rtous as 1t may seem. Bluegrass pas
| ture is not nearly so good as some
other crops for hogs. Clover and alfalfa
are probably worth about twice as
much per acre. A small area temper
arily enclosed with low woven-wire
fence, stretched tight, may be turned
into an admirable hog pasture, by SOW
ing suitable crops early In the spring.
Oats, rape and clover, or oats, rape
and Canada field peas, or rape alone,
produce about as much pork per acre
| in the corn-belt as a well-set clover
! sod. The land must be thoroughly
prepared and the seed sown rather
thickly. When the crop gets well
started an abundance of feed is as
sured If it is not overstocked.
Glover, alfalfa and annual forage
crops have been found to yield from
500 to 500 pounds Of pork per acre
apart from that produced from the
corn fed in addition. Best results
after weaving, where economy rather
than rapidity of growth of the pigs is
desired, have been secured with a hall
ration Of grain on pasture until the
shoots were ready for the final rush
Of fattening. 1t is possible by this
plan to make a large amount of heal
thy growth on the cheap green feed,
although the pigs cannot thrive on 1t
without some grain fed all the tim :.
The man with limited pasture may ad-
vantageously provide for his hogs in
this way.-Chicago Breeders Gazette
