Northcove Stock Farm.

A few days ago it was our pleas
ure to spend a few hours at th,
Northcove Stock Farm near Char
iotte. Mr.. A. l.. Miller, who own:
and manages this excellent farm
with the assistance OF his wife and
interesting family, took great in,
terest in showing us over the place
and explaining how he managed
and operated each department OF
the farm to the best advantage.
Among the most interesting. and
as Mr. Miller says, the most prof,
table things we saw, was his Silo,
built by him OF concrete. which
holds rs tons, which he fills in the
fall for $l.00 per ton. This he
states, will winter 40 head of cat.
tie. His plan OF farming is the two.
crop system. and he showed Us
where he had harvested wheat and
oats and had followed the binder
with a plow and sowed stock peas,
turnips, etc.
He has three large barns--one for
his cattle, one for his horses and
mules, and one for bis hogs and a
grainery. Another great conven.
lence on this farm Is his water svs-
tenn. There being no stream or
running water or his place, he has
a well, and Windmill which pumps
the water into a large tank. and
from there he supplies bis barns
with water, and has concrete basins
in his pasture fields equipped with
automatic valves that supply his
stock with fresh water at all times.
He not only supplies his stock with
water, but has pipes running to his
residence and is theresa connected
as to supply the house with both
hot and cold water.
Mr.. Miller's idea is to raise all
the hay and grain he can and feed to
the stock. aud then sell the stock,
He now has on hand a nice herd Of
cattle and several fiue young mules.
His farm rs wen equipped with
farm machinery, such as threshing
machine, binder. corn, shredder,
moving machines. drills. pIows,
etc. He is 4 great believer in put.
ting crushed limestone on HE land,
therefore. he has on bis place a
crusher, with which he crushes his
own limestone and distributes on
his land.
There is much more we could say
about the Northcove Stock Farm il
space would permit, but we want 10
say In conclusion. that those who
enjoy seeing well.manaeed and
arranged farm, will make no mis-.
take in going TO see this one, and
we are sure MIR. Miller and his es-
teemed family will appreciate the
visit.
