Inc Ideal county is peopled with
Shidl, FARMERS. 1t is almost impossible
LOT the large lam owner to realize the
iuiiest oenefits Of the soil. The follow
ing articie is from the Southern Field
ana SHOWS what may be done with q
Few acres of land:
Inc colonial idea in the South was
that It required 1000 acres to make a
good plantation and 1000 acres to
make a rich planter. Thes figures
nave down through the de-
cadal periods, until now it is oniv pos
sibie to grow rich in tnat region on a
loo-acre farm. but on a "one-horse
farm,' or One-mule farm. a thrifty
tanner may easily supper a family and
nave something left at the end of tn
year for q neat bank That
is not d theoretical idea, but a fact
demonstrated on just such a limited
tract in q number, of instances along
the Southern Railway. For the en-
enlargement Of small farmers who
haVe heretofore. failed, and probably,
still are failing, to make both ends
meet, because they are, unhappily To-
Gated IL the wrong place for small
farmers, we Civ some instances which
must be convincing without further
proof.
"A Virginia farm Of "a acres yield
ed $1,O67 in cash. net profit in one
ear. 1t produced, in that time, 1000
bushels of potatoes, which brought
$500; hay sold for Sis; early cap
bages sold for $50; milk and butter
from four COWS bringing 1910; other
prOducts-seed, corn, asparagus,
honey and some stock sold, adding to
the gross receipts in all, 1887. For
labor, fertilizers, feed for stock, and
an allowance for interest on the LAND
Investment, taxes. repairs, and waste,
was deducted $500. In the meantime
the owner a supported his family
comfortably, and his land, by careful
cultivation, IA advanced in value.
Further south, a farmer produced
% bales Of cotton on 10 acres. Includ-
ing seed, the crop brought him $4,000.
Deducting cost of labor, feed for one
mule. fertilizer, seed, repairs, interest
and incidentals, estimated at $500, his
net profits for the year were $4,000.
In this case the planter received al
unusually high price for his cotton
seed-$3 per bushel. Ordinarily
81 per bushel would be a conservative
price; and ever at that he would have
netted 1852 on the 19-acre farm, q
neat result from o~ne-year's effort.
"A Catawba. S. c., farmer, raising
hogs on rs acres, divided the and into
four fields, rotating with coWpeas
sorghum cane, n clover. for forage
and corn for feed from the ear. His
stock was of good strain; his methods
up to date, and his land was subjected
to intelligent and careful treatment
enhancing its value by making it twice
as fertile and productive as wen he
began, only q. few years ago, to rails
swine for profit. His, clear profit fol
the year vas $1,000.

SHADE AND SHELTER TOR TIL.
PIGS

1 provide shade and shelter for my
pigs by turning them into d wood pas
ture or the orchards or by construct
ing q shed. This is done by setting
some posts to support a roof Of rough
boards. The pigs seldom hurt the
orchard if they don't run in it more
thar a month or two during the hot
test weather.
Sometimes where there are but few
trees in the orchard it Is not best to
let the pigs run there too long as they
may kill some of the trees by rubbing
and knaWing them off.
If they start at this | turn them out
and provide artificial shade. But, l
furnish them shade Of some kind and
have abolished the dirty wallow holes.
Shelter is also needed at certain
times. There are always a FEW wet
and cold spells every summer Wnen
the pigs will suffer if they don't nave
good shelter and they can easily get
\ set back during j cold an that
will take them a long time to recover

NOTES FOR

# we are to be SUCCESSFUL ~dalrynlen
we must have a love for our work
and the animals we are working with.
The lack Of love for q COW and lack
Of appreciation of what she is doing
for us is noticed in the size of the
ream check.
Ever notice how the dairy business
booms when the owner is interested
in his work. There is too much lack
of interest among dairymen.
The hope Of the dairy business
rests with the new beginner, not with
the old fashioned dairymen who are
tied to Improbable cows and unprofit-
able methods and who are unwilling
to accept the clear demonstrated
truth Of better ethod and higher
ideals.
Why do men continue to dairy in a

selves into the belief that they are
ua!rNmen?

BEWARE OF THE BAD BULL.

In spite Of the fact hat scores OF
deaths are recorded every year by
vicious bulls many handlers Of these
animals continue to lead them by a
rope although it is to invite ar attack
sooner or later.
Bulls kept in close confinement are
nearly always possessed Of bad tenn
pers and even those allowed more
liberty may prove perfectly docile for
years and then at a moments warn
ing develop q crazy streak and attack
the man who is caring for them.
The only safe way to handle q bull
rs by means Of a stick and a nose
ring Both the stick and the ring
should be Of the strongest material
and the animal should never be
taken out Of his enclosure without
them.

THE SEVENTEEN-YEAR LOCUST
DUE.
BY c. i. Mariatt.

by Il l. MarIatt-
Two important broods of the period
zeal cicada-the 13-year and 1t-year
locust. are due TO appear during 1911.
III different parts Of the United States.
One of these. the 11-year race ex-
tends from New York southwark into
North Carolina. in general, lying east
OF the Allegheny Mountains TIE 13-
year race covers the lower half of the
Mississippi Valley.
Botn of these broods have been
very carefully studied in past years
and their distribution has been. in the
main, probably accurately deter
mined. The approaching reappear-
ance, however, of these broods of
cicada has lead to inquiries, and cir
culars have been issued by the govern
tons of various States, to meet these
inquiries, and also for the purpose OF
securing reports of occurrence to add
to the present knowledge Of the die
tribution of these broods.
h I7-year is one of the best
recorded broods, since its almost ex-
elusive Eastern range brings it into
the Immediate vicinity of the larger
towns and more populated districts Of
the Atlantic coast. IL has been re-
ported in Connecticut regularly every
II years since 1724 and in New Jersey
since 1875, n almost equally long
records of its regular visits in other
States have been made It's last
appearance was in 1894, although a
scattering brood appeared in 1910.
