Good Seed Is Urged In This
Weeks Letter From The
Agricultural Officer.

The time for preparation for the
1914 is here One of the first
things to look after is seed Good
seed, pure seed, and seed that will
come up when planted, are what
you want. If you selected your
seed corn from the field, you are
fortunate. Now is the time to test
the seed to see IL they will give you
a good stand. The plan Of testing
was discussed in a former letter.
Do not fail to make the test. Re-
member that after you plant your
crop you are going to cultivate the
land just the same whether you
have good stand or not Every
hill of corn that is missing will
count against you at gathering time
in the fall It will not take much
time or labor now to test the seed.
If you did not select your seed
from the field 90 to the crib now
and get the best ears and test them.
If you haven't good corn in the
crib, 1t is better to buy your seed
corn. If you buy it, | would advise
you to Oct it in the ear, You can
then see the character of corn. 1t
will cost a little more, but it is
worth the difference.
1t is a good idea to test your cot
ton seed before you plant, Do not
plant several varieties, II Is better
to conhne yourself to one variety
The fewer the better.
Prepare the seed bed we'll When
the seed bed Is well prepared before
planting, It will save labor In cult.

After travelling miles and miles
the Confederate soldier arrives at
his home to meet his dear wife and
sweet little children, after a long
absence. He looks upon the deso-
lation and ravaees four years Of
war had brought to his home and
country. His horses are gone, His
cattle are gone, with the possible
exception of one COW and a calf,
His hogs and sheep are gone, His
farm has gone to ruin, The fence
Is down, and the rails are rotten,
Bushes and briars have grown up
in the fields. The corn crib, the
wheat garner, the smoke house and
the larder are all about empty,
Upon the whole there was not much
left for the soldier to build upon,
but he was glad to get home and
be with his family once more,
Bravely he at once went to work to
build up again and regain some of
his losses, And bravely he looked
forward to the time when he could
have peace and plenty again. full

The general opinion of the people
was that this was an arrangement

horse the old man would deny hav-

mad when he asked him for him,
but the captain could be assured
that the horse was there just the

horse was kept in the back yard
behind the meat house, under the
shade of a tree, where he could not
be seen from the road, and the cap
