Tbe Pig-CIub Increment.

Keep your eyes on Uncle Sans boys
ard girls pig clubs. They're doing
things! There are 1900 members in
louisiana; Georgia takes up the work
this fall; Oklahoma, North Carolina
ana Texas are ready and waiting to
come in. This club work has been a
logical outgrowth of the boys and
girls corn clubs. These youngsters
have learned to grow corn in profita-
bic yields; now they are joining the
pig clubs to market the product of
their labor on four legs rather than
on four wheels.
One great result of the pig clubs will
be the eventual stocking of the South
with pure-breds or grades. to the elm
ination of the razorback. Experts in
tfe Department of Agriculture de-
clare that the South can raise better
hams than any other section of the
United States.
When members of these pig clubs
are willing to shine shoes, sweep
schoolhouses and sell papers in order
to get money to buy their first pigs
there is no stopping them, and there
are few limitations one dares place on
their ultimate achievements.-Country

Negro Man and His Wife In a Cotton

Here's a contemplating record that

lick more cotton in a day than his
wife could pick. So they traced" and
the result was APT for Pines and 447

and cooked two meals during the day.

debts behind his products and ne Is not
under necessity Of disposlng OF them
to buy his living, for he has already
provided for them at home.
SpecuIating with large acreages OF
eo-called "money crops" piling up
large fertilizer time bills behind it all
isn't farming-it's a kind of gambling
that is mighty close akin to the kind
which operators on cotton exchanges
engage in, and it's just about as risky
a proposition as buying and selling
futures, and is about as bad morally.
Speculative farming usually brings
financial embarrassment to those who
engage in it, sooner or later, and 1t
frequently results in large aggregate
Yields, causing a decline in prices OF
what would otherwise be a profitable
surplus crop for those who farm for a
living.
Farming with the speculative idea
CT making money" instead of MAX
ing a living, is largely responsible for
the credit system in the South. Men
buy, o ntime, large amounts OF COM
n ercial fertilizers to apply under
speculative money crops and then put
IN the wager that they will win in the.
game. Occasionally they do win, and
yet there seems to be something in hui
man nature that makes a man anxious
10 keep on trying his luck, in the face
OF reverses. after he once enters the
game.
But 1 didn't start out TO moralize
extensively on this subject. Upon
the successful solution of our market
ins problem the live-at-home policy
must necessarily play an important
part. j am frank to say that l know
of no better breastworks to fight for
a square deal than a living at home,
and if we win in our contest for econ
ofnical marketing we must get in this
strong fighting position. In 1909 and
1910 the Farmers Union of North Car
china made the most vigorous cam
paign on the live-at-home platform
that has ever been conducted by a
farmers organization in this country,
aid it Has been far-reaching in it's
Leneicial effects. l am inclined to
think that the live-at-home campaign
should be kept up continuously, for it
is an economic value that delatively
touches many ideas of the farmers
business problems.-J. II Green in
Progressive Farmer.

increasing Cover CROPS.

Wake county's increase of cover
crops will this season run into, the
thousands of acres, a United States
demonstration having already reported
yer two thousand new acres in GRIM
son clover alone. Rye and wheat are
srnked as cover crops, as preat pro-
tectors of land from washing, and rye
is regarded as being in tive ways 4
valuable crop. Turned under in the
Spring it gives a wonderful fertility
to land, and as n o tfhe demonstra-
tors told a farmer, is worth a ton of
fertilizer, because when the Spring
crop is planted, following the rye. a
ton of fertilizer would have a double
effect.-Raleigh Times.

ALFALFA SUCCESS IN GUILFoRD.


Acre of This Growth Cut Five Times
During the Past Year-ROOts Three
Feet Deep.
The Sampson county grower of alfa1-
ia, who has made only two cuttings
this year must dof hiA hat to Col.
"BiI,' Osborn, Guilford county farmer,
who is at present devoting his spare
time to collecting some several billion
collars in taxes for Uncle Sam. In
fact, p. H. Hanes, who has opened the
eyes of Forsyth, has nothing on the
commissioner of revenue, when 1t
to growing alfalfa. Capt. Jas
Y. Whitfield, who is looking after the
Osborn farm, about four miles east of
the city, is authority for the statement
that an acre in alfalfa has been cut five
times this year and that it has yielded
a little more than 10000 pounds. or six
tons, of hay. Just now alfalfa hay is
quoted at from $2S.OO to $4,000 per ton.
This acre on the Osborn farm, there
fore, will yield approximately $3.50,
the only expense being cost of cutting,
halng and getting to market.
The acre in alfalfa on the Osborn
place was planted about two years ago
and it is said that the roots have al
ready attained a growth of fully three
feet Capt. Whitfield believes that this
growth will have extended to five or
six feet by next summear and that the
yield will be much better than that of
the present season. He says the soil
which grew this splendid hay crop was
we'll prepared some two years ago, but
hatthere was no speci9k inoccuIation.
Previous to sowing alfalfa it had been
devoted to clover and peas. If the
roots get a good firm hold and are
h"alttf"' the acre will yield anywhere

shade as a money crop.
Another interesting feature in con-
rection with this farm is the fact that

pounds of feed will be saved. The pea,
clover and shredded corr feed will
bring from $500 to $1,000 per ton.
which means that the Colonel will rea-
lie more than 81, 900. The entire crop
has been raised and housed at an ex-
pense which is only trivial in compari-
son Col. Osborn had six acres in corn
which attracted considerable attention
and admiration. 1t is said that no
such field has ever before been grown
in Guilford county and it was both an
Inspiration and curiosity to the entire
community during the summer. He
said this cut and stacked and will have
it shredded With ma short time. He
expects to get a splendid supply of feed
from this source
While the farming operations of the
commissioner are not on an elaborate
scale, he is nevertheless going at it in
a big way and is giving a splendid OBJ
Iect lesson to his neighbors. Col. Os-
EOrn isn't farming solely for amuse- |
he rather takes pride in what he
can make good Guilford county land
