Teaching Farmers How to Dry Kiln
Sweet Potatoes.

Mr.. H. T. Holloway, an expert in
the matter of making dry kilns to cure
sweet potatoes, made talk on the
subject in the court house at II a. m.
last Saturday, and from here went to
Oak Grove, where he addressed the
farmers of that community at three
O'Clock that evening.
Mr. Holloway has erected four dry
kilns in Louisiana. two at Dubach, one
at Vienna and one at Athens, each of
them having the capacity to hold about
20, 600 bushels. He has been sent out
by the executive committee of the
Food Preparedness Commission to
teach farmers the important know
ledge of how they can preserve and
keep sweet potatoes practically free
from rot He has had five years ex-
perience in the kiln drying business and
has saved many thousand bushels of
potatoes and he asserts that they can
be kept indefinitely.
We hope to see the farmers take
hold of this proposition at once, and
that they Will prepare to kiln dry all
the potatoes they raise this season.
Any size house can be used for this
purpose.

The Boss Stalk of Cotton.

A Stalk of cotton sent to this office
on June Is by D. L. Green, colored
man, who grew it on the Randolph
Rigolette plantation, is one of the best
specimens we ever saw, The stalk
was two feet high from where it left
the ground to the top, and was thickly
branched from top. to bottom. 1t had
IL small cotton bolls, 2 red blooms and
80 squares on it-52 forms all told.
The stalk was green and vigorous, al
though Green. who says he has 70
acres very much like it, writes that he
thinks its growth was kept back by
the cold and dry weather.
